Andy Richter is reflecting on his weight struggles in the public eye after revealing that he’s dropped a few pounds because of Dancing With the Stars.
Richter, 59, was in conversation with Colin Hanks during the Tuesday, November 4, episode of SiriusXM’s “The Three Questions with Andy Richter” podcast. Hanks, 47, was on the show to discuss directing Prime Video’s John Candy: I Like Me documentary when the topic of weight came up.
Hanks detailed how the late Candy’s weight was always discussed in interviews when Richter lamented on the early days of his own career.
“The first thing that comes to mind is one of my standard lines about what it was like to start in 1993 on Late Night With Conan O’Brien — that being the first thing I had ever done,” Richter said. “I had acted, but nothing that had ever gotten any attention or that was out even. I had already done the movie Cabin Boy, but it wasn’t out yet.”
He added, “One of my standard lines is, ‘I didn’t know there were so many ways to call someone fat.’ Because it was just cherubic, rotund, all these different [words].”
Richter said the way he was described was “galling” to him.
“They don’t say anything about my good, strong teeth. But they have to mention that,” he continued, noting that there’s a “comedy” aspect as well. Richter even admitted to joking about his own weight struggles.
“I would always say it’s skinny and fatty,” Richter recalled. “That’s a comedy trope. It was always kind of that thing.”
Richter has been candid about discussing his recent transformation since making his DWTS debut in September alongside professional dance partner Emma Slater.
The comedian said on the “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend” podcast last month that he initially didn’t want to be on DWTS but decided to use the show as a way to “get moving” in his daily life.
“It got me to go to the gym and do cardio, which I loathe. I started to do a lot more stretching just to kind of prepare myself,” he said. “I was terrified that I was going to get injured or that I just wouldn’t be able to do it. And then would have to pull out and be embarrassed.”
Slater, 36, mentioned that Richter has lost weight during last week’s prerecorded package ahead of their performance.
“I was thinking I won’t be able to cut it,” Richter said in one rehearsal package. “Now I have to admit all this physical activity has made me feel better about myself.”
He added, “I definitely felt like, ‘Well, I’m older now, I can’t do as much as I used to.’ And now, I’m like, ‘Yes you can, you lazy bum.’ I just feel like a better person now. I feel more alive.”
Richter’s continued success in the competition has received mixed reactions from viewers. Some DWTSfans want him to win, while others hope the comedian gets eliminated.
“It is an entertainment show, and it is for people that have not done this before, and so it’s beautiful to watch them get a moment in the spotlight and to grow and to see improvement,” Slater told Us Weekly exclusively last month. “He, every bit, deserves his place here.”

Elaine Hendrix has been acting since the ‘90s — but it wasn’t always her main career path. When the actress was injured in a 1992 car accident, her dance career came to a halt and she was forced to change course.
“I believe that everything happens for a reason and it pushed me in this direction that completely worked out, thankfully,” Hendrix said with a laugh during a July 2016 interview with the Huffington Post, reflecting on why she chose to jump into acting headfirst.
It’s been more than three decades since Hendrix was hit by a car riding her bike, but her accident still haunts her. In fact, during season 34 of Dancing With the Stars, Hendrix revealed that the aftermath of the crash makes it harder to compete.
While pushing past her physical limits on the ABC competition series, Hendrix was hospitalized for an unrelated injury in October, causing fans to worry. However, Hendrix was given the green light to continue on her DWTS journey beginning with the Tuesday, November 4, episode.

Inside Elaine’s 1992 Car Accident
“I had just come to Los Angeles to begin my professional career and very soon after moving here I was riding my bike and got hit by a car,” Hendrix told the Huffington Post in July 2016, noting that one moment “changed everything for me.”
During her September DWTS opening package, Hendrix revealed she is “really lucky” that she “walked away” from the accident but didn’t expand further.
How Did Her Career Change After the Accident?
The Parent Trap star told the Huffington Post in July 2016 that she began her career as a “classically trained dancer in modern and contemporary jazz.” Following her accident, Hendrix said, “Dance became something that was very painful to do, so it just pushed me more in the direction of acting.”
Hendrix recalled booking a few guest starring roles before landing her first series. “That’s when I stopped dancing professionally but I never stopped dancing altogether,” she told the outlet. “It’s just that whenever I dance I need to be prepared for the fact that I will be really sore and can’t quite do the things I used to do, but that’s OK.”
How Has Elaine’s Accident Affected Her ‘DWTS’ Run?
Hendrix revealed during an October episode of Dancing With the Stars that following her ‘90s car accident, a titanium joint was placed in her right foot. She said during Wicked Night that the joint “renders half my foot unusable.”
“Every week, my body shifts into a new pain spot, but I just don’t want to let it stop me,” the actress explained during the show package. “I know my determination is going to win it, just getting there is quite a journey.”

Why Was Elaine Hospitalized on ‘DWTS’ Season 34?
During rehearsals for Halloween Week in October, Hendrix was rushed to the hospital after experiencing pain in her ribs. The contestant later revealed via her Instagram that she injured her ribs during her “Defying Gravity” performance one week prior and they “just seized up” during practice.
“I couldn’t move. They brought me to the hospital,” Hendrix said in the Tuesday, October 28, video. “The doctor has said that with a day or two of rest, I should be able to continue and that’s exactly what I want to do. I want to dance, I want to keep doing this.”
Hendrix’s dance partner, Alan Bersten, explained during the October 28 episode that while they were working on their Argentine tango, “Elaine kind of froze and said she can’t move and she can’t breathe, and something happened with her rib.”
He noted she was in “so much pain” and therefore he had no idea if they would dance that evening. The pair did not perform and were instead judged on their practice routine.
Despite missing Halloween Night, Hendrix and Bersten scored 8s across the board from the judges on October 28. With fans’ votes, they were saved from elimination. Hendrix’s doctors, meanwhile, cleared her to continue on in the competition.
“You guys voted, we are going to be safe. We got another dance to [perform],” Bersten confirmed during a TikTok Live following the episode. “We’re going to take it easy but we will be back for the show. We will take this week easy.”
