00:08Hi, I'm Caleb Heron, and I am on InStyle's breakthrough list.
00:11My first job, I worked at a Golden Corral buffet.
00:14I went back and forth between running the register slash making drinks and then decorating the cakes.
00:19The celebrity red carpet outfit that lives rent-free in my mind is Heidi Klum dressed as the worm.
00:25It was on a carpet, and it was very funny to me. Shout out Heidi for real.
00:28Making my family laugh was the first thing that made me feel like maybe I was funny or could be funny.
00:32And we had this babysitter who cooked us like this atrocious dinner one time.
00:37It was like spaghetti noodles in Thousand Island dressing.
00:39And I remember the next day I was recounting this meal to my mom and my cousin,
00:45and they were laughing so hard and like calling people over to hear the story.
00:48I was like, man, everyone is paying attention to me. This is sick.
00:51I would love to accomplish one full night's sleep.
00:55I do want to learn a song on the guitar.
00:56Oh, I'd like to cook a really good meal. This is so boring. God.
01:00In style, don't put this out.
01:02I'm like, I want to sleep and cook a meal. Okay, loser.
01:04Career-wise in the next year, I would love to EGOT, and I think I will.
01:08I want everyone to know that this is not top of my mind.
01:10I do not take this lightly. I'm saying this very seriously, and I thought about it a lot.
01:14The person who should play me in my biopic is Laurie Metcalfe.
01:17I just think she's such an incredible actor. I'm so obsessed with her.
01:21I love her so much, and I will watch her in absolutely anything,
01:24and so I feel like if she played in my biopic, people would watch it.
01:27Laurie, if you're available, please call, girl. We would love to have you.
