Andrew WK Outlines His Love for My Little Pony

Nothing Andrew WK says or does in relation to (or in pursuit of) partying is a surprise anymore. Well, almost nothing. Yesterday, he announced that he’ll be speaking at the Canterlot Gardens My Little Pony convention in Cleveland this September. His speech will be about Pinkie Pie, the similarly party-obsessed pony. Earlier today Hive caught up with the living embodiment of the party spirit to talk about his love of the animated embodiment of partying, cupcakes and how Jerry Seinfeld just needs to hug a pony.

How long have you felt a connection to Pinkie Pie?
I remember quite clearly when My Little Pony first came on the scene. The newer series on the TV, Friendship Is Magic, instigated a whole new wave of passion and excitement, and has certainly created new fans. But I was always, always really into the Ponies because, one, they had soft plastic skin — this is the toy. They had chubby feet — their legs get broader and broader toward the base, which I imagine gives them more traction for when they gallop or trot. And they had really nice, fragrant hair. Their mane and their tail had an almost fresh fruit aroma. So I always liked the toy itself, to begin with. And it was mostly girls who liked it, so I was able to spend a lot of time playing with very beautiful girls, some of whom were kind enough to give me their Ponies, or lend them to me for extended periods of time. But more recently, I started noticing that some of the folks who started partying with me over the last four or five years had some excitement about the Ponies once again. And that Pinkie Pie, in particular, was brought up as the most party-hard Pony of them all. So when I was invited by Canterlot Gardens to speak specifically about Pinkie Pie, it was very clear to me then that this was a whole new level of Pony partying that I certainly wanted to be involved in as deeply as I could.
