"I don’t have problem with it. It depends on how you do it. People say, “Why do you have to play Connie Chung?” I also play John McCain, which is fucked up because Asians captured him.

I wasn’t going to say no—we were Asian assassins. In Harold And Kumar, I didn’t need one; it didn’t call for it. I’m a team player."
