Michael Clarke DuncanMichael Clarke Duncan blew his chance of landing a role in his favorite TV show 24, when he lost his cool in front of its star Kiefer Sutherland. Duncan was thrilled to get an audition for a part in 24, but he wishes he hadn't called Sutherland by his character's name, Jack Bauer.

He tells chat show host Megan Mullally, "I had a meeting over there some months ago. And I said, 'I'm going to be real cool, drive my Hummer over there and be like this.' And I see Jack Bauer running to a van, and his name's not Jack Bauer, it's Kiefer Sutherland.

"So I get all crazed and I lost it and run over to him and say, 'Hey Jack! You were in the bottom of that ship. I voted for you at the SAG (Screen Actors Guild) Awards...' And I thought, 'What are you doing? Be cool. You might get on this show.' I became this dribbling, big black fool and he was like, 'OK, I hope we work together.' Never heard from them since."
