we will be doing the-
- [Both] Wired Autocomplete Interview.
- [claps] Here we go.
- So the header here is how Joey King.
How did Joey King become famous?
Became famous?
[laughs] That's hysterical.
- Wait, Joey King's famous?
Joey King did not know that she was famous,
but if she were to answer that question to the best
of her ability, it would be lots of hard work.
[laughing]
- A good answer.
Okay, how did Joey King and Sabrina Carpenter meet?
I'm actually curious about this too
'cause you guys have been friends forever.
- We've been friends forever.
Sabrina Carpenter and Joey King met many, many years
ago at a charity event.
Sabrina came over to me and was like,
hi, I'm Sabrina.
What's funny is we weren't always super close.
For the first several years of our friendship,
we would hang out once every like, year.
And it was the funnest thing in the world.
We don't know why it took us so long to become
as close as we are now.
- [Joel] How old is Joey King "Kissing Booth"?
[laughing]
- How old is Joey King "Kissing Booth"?
In the first "Kissing Booth," I am 17,
but in real life, I am about to be 21.
- Dang, whoop-woo!
Okay, last one, how does Joey King stay in shape?
- People actually ask that question to Google?
That's so funny to me.
I go through phases of working out a ton
and then not working out at all and then I go through
phases of eating a ton and then eating clean.
Like it's kind of weird, I don't have a system,
especially when we were shooting "The Kissing Booth"
'cause I took so long to film it.
I started out working out so hard every day,
so healthy, and then it just went out the window
and I was like, I guess I'll just eat fried food
and peanut butter shakes every day,
because who really cares?
- Thick shakes!
[laughs]
- Okay are you ready?
Joel Courtney, when was Joel Courtney born?
- I was born January 31st, 1996.
Good year, good vintage of person, apparently.
I'm not really great with the zodiac signs,
but I've been told that I'm on the cusp
between Aquarius and another one
because the 31st is so close, it can go either way,
so apparently, I have a split personality.
- Do you know what my sign is Joel?
I'll give you a hint.
Rawr!
[laughing]
I'm a Leo, it's fine. - Taurus?
Leo, gotcha.
I think rawr is like, pretty.
- Well it's like the lion, like [growling].
- Okay that's true.
- Whatever.
Okay.
What has Joel Courtney been in?
What hasn't he been in?
- [laughs] Stop.
So I started my career in "Super 8," 2010.
That was actually my first audition.
I'd never done anything before that.
I did a quick stint with CW in "The Messengers."
A few years go by, more movies,
and then "The Kissing Booth" happens in,
oh my goodness, 2017, is that right?
- Yup, that's right.
- Then it came out in 2018.
Honestly, it was just been the best ride.
I've realized, I've been working for a decade now,
which is [imitates explosion blasting].

depending on the shoe.
- Is Joel Courtney related to Joey King?
[laughs]

- I am not vegan.
I try to be careful about my meat intake
and I don't really eat dairy if I can help it,
but I am not vegan unfortunately.
I respect vegans more than you could ever imagine though.
I've always wanted to really be a vegan.
I'm trying sometimes, but it's hard, it's very hard.
This is morbid, but I've always had a death row meal.
Like that sounds terrible, whatever,
but I always said it was gonna be my grandma's brisket
and a peanut butter milkshake.
So the opposite of vegan.
Sorry, but I also love vegan food so much.
Here we go.

I was like, at least Joel Courtney SPF 30.
[laughing]
- "Super 8" is my first movie.
That was my first audition.
I mean that was really just a baptism of fire.
I remember showing up to set and I think
I scared the entire crew because I was saying like,
what does that thing do, what's the purpose of that?
And they're like, well that's the camera.
And I'm like, cool cool cool, so what's that do?
And they're like, oh, what are we in for?

I kept a quote list of myself,
but it was negative quotes.
So you know in traffic, people slow down
for a car accident and they're called rubber neckers?
I was one time driving in LA and my dad's riding shotgun,
and I go, ah, those stupid redneckers.
They're slowing us all down.
I said redneckers instead of rubber neckers,
so like the quote list that I kept
was of the dumb things that I said [laughs].
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I don't think
I've ever really said anything that was worth quoting.
