Paul Rudd: Kansas Citian, comedian, Bat Mitzvah MC?

Far before Paul Rudd ever slappa’d da bass on the big silver screen, he was air-guitaring his way to stardom here in Kansas City’s own reception halls…as a Bat Mitzvah MC. The actor, who is from Shawnee, is currently known for his work with the Apatow crowd in I Love You Man, but he’s a veteran in the comedy world (Clueless, Wet Hot American Summer). But, like all great stars, he comes from humble beginnings. Watch Rudd get paid to party professionally with thirteen year-old girls (and rock black shorts and hiked-up tube socks) after the jump.
