Just about a year ago<\/a> I spoke with Dustin Ingram while he promoted his new film, Meet Monica Velour<\/I>, at the Tribeca Film Festival. Well, almost exactly one year later, things have certainly changed; the film is about to have a theatrical release and Ingram grew a mustache.<\/p>\n

Kidding aside, Meet Monica Velour<\/I> marks Ingram’s very first starring role as Tobe, a geeky kid with no game with the ladies who drives a truck with a gigantic hot dog on top of it. Upon graduating high school, Tobe decides enough is enough and not only is it time to sell his wiener-mobile, but to finally see his dream girl, washed up porn star, Monica Velour. It just so happens that both his potential buyer and Monica will be in the same vicinity at the same time.<\/p>\n

Forget the fact that Ingram is a talented actor; he makes for a pretty damn fun interview. Perhaps one day I\u2019ll compile a little reel of interview bloopers, but for now, I present the juicy details on every aspect of making this film from Ingram\u2019s awkward audition competition, to his bee encounter on the first day of filming all the way up to his recent appearance on Glee<\/I>. Check it all out in the video interview below and be sure to catch Meet Monica Velour<\/I> when it hits theaters on April 8th.<\/p>\n
