Verne Troyer (aka Mini-Me) shows in The Love Guru that he is more than just a ‘one character man’. He is funny, charming (?) and over all he gives Mike Myers a good round for his money.

In a recent interview with the NYDailyNews, Verne opened up about his days on his life on “The Surreal Life,” voice-overs, and most importantly about The Love Guru.

Q: You clearly have a very similar and silly sense of humor to Myers. Are there any jokes you ever object to?
A: Not really. The way I look at it is, it’s a movie. You’ve got to be able to have fun with it and laugh at it. If it were outside the movie, yeah, some of that stuff would be insulting.

Q: Do people in your community ever give you grief for appearing in a film where Myers refers to you as a Keebler elf, or pretends you’re an Oscar statue?
A: Like I said, get over it. I’m sorry; it doesn’t offend me. Why should it offend you?

Q: My favorite scene in “The Love Guru” is where Myers, Alba and others come to your office for a meeting and it’s scaled down to your size, so they’re sitting on tiny couches and their heads scrape the ceiling.
A: We used that set for a lot of interviews I did, with reporters sitting on the small couch while I sat at the desk. When I walk into that room, it’s like stepping into a different world.
