Hello everyone. My name is Gary Coleman. And a lot of you remember me as that little black kid on Different Strokes. But there's another, darker side of me that a lot of you don't know about. And that's the fact that I was born without a torso. That's right! And millions of children are born without torsos every year, and the number is growing.

Hello, my name's Kate Capshaw. And a lot of you remember me as that little black kid on Different Strokes. But there's another, darker side of me that a lot of you don't know about. And that's the fact that- (laughing)- Greg's making me laugh!

Hello, my name's Clint Eastwood. And a lot of you remember me as that little black kid on Different Strokes. But there's another, darker side of me that a lot of you don't know about.
