Interview0 Comments

Holmes returns as a guest on Conan and talks about his Thanksgiving holiday with his parents in Boston. He also shares his experiences being a celebrity, including signing a Nickelback CD for a fan.

I’m a new vegan. I had to explain that to my working class Boston parents. They didn’t — they didn’t know what that meant. They didn’t even know how to say it. My father was like “Peter, you’re a vegan!” Why is that? Vegan, dad! Vegan, like an alien species. What does that mean? What does it mean? I go, it just means you don’t eat animal products. And he goes so what do you eat all day, frigging yogurt?
