14 Things You Never Knew About ‘The Drew Carey Show’


5. Kathy Kinney Always Avoided Auditions

Kathy Kinney avoided auditioning for roles that called for “heavy girls” because she didn’t want to be typecast just because of her weight. She would lose weight here and there unintentionally, and she was always told she would “diet herself out of a career.” She would always fire back with, “I’m losing weight, not my talent.” Thankfully, she found an ally in Carey who treated her like she was more than just the size of her clothes.

These days, Kinney has a unique career as a YouTube star! You can watch one of her videos where she reads a children’s book down below.
