Because he hasn’t yet had an icky cameo on Glee, you might not realize that actor and comedian Joel McHale’s star is cresting. He plays heartthrob Jeff Winger, a lawyer forced to go back to junior college, on NBC’s Community. And he hosts E!’s The Soup, a clip show that mocks the very Hollywood culture that the celebrity-obsessed channel encourages. Despite two popular shows and his role in three upcoming blockbusters, McHale is still tearing up the stand-up circuit. When he stops at the Hard Rock this Saturday, expect him to lacerate the cult of celebrity (specifically Ryan Seacrest) and hyperbolize parenthood. As he recently tweeted: “My three year old is upstairs stomping around screaming, ‘Where’s my knife?! Where’s my knife?!’ So Proud. #raisingaDanielDayLewisCharacter.”
