Hank Azaria, principal voice on The Simpsons, may have a new gig. He was the star of Sunday's Los Angeles Dodgers home game.
For the past 24 years, Azaria has been doing the voices of your favorite Simpson characters. Brought in by show creators Matt Groening and Sam Simon, Azaria voices tens of characters on the Fox mega-hit.
Some of his characters include: Moe the Bartender, Police Chief Wiggum, Carl Carlson, Dr. Nick Riviera, Comic Book Guy, Professor Frink, Lou, Snake, Cletus Spuckler, Disco Stu, the Sea Captain, Kirk Van Houten, Duffman and many, many others.
He put those talents to use Sunday evening, as he read the Dodger's starting lineup against the Atlanta Braves. The fans went crazy.
At least they would have...if they were present. The Dodger's stadium was virtually empty for the star's performance. Luckily, the entire performance was caught on tape.
Azaria, who makes a staggering $300,000 per episode (it used to be $400,000), had what little fans were present on the edge of their seats.
Unfortunately, all that star power didn't do much to help the Dodger's performance. The team only scored one run on the night--losing 8-1 to the Bravos.
Hank Azaria is also known for his short lived marriage to (once-famous) Helen Hunt. The two began dating in the mid-90s.
The two officially married in a traditional Jewish wedding in 1999. The ceremony took place in the couple's So Cal home.
Within a few months, Azaria moved out of the home. The two divorced within a year, sending shockwaves through Hollywood.
Hank and Katie Wright married in 2007 and are reportedly quite happy together.
