Louis Ck talks about the success of his comedy special

Louis C.K. offers an update on the success of his special during his interview with Jimmy Fallon. Apparently, Live from the Beacon Theater has hit the million dollar mark in sales, though C.K. breaks the success down to much more simple terms by referring to it as “a $5 impulse that 225,000 people had.” You’ll hear more on his thoughts about that, his plans for New Year’s, and his less than ecstatic take on performing at the White House Correspondents Dinner (see part 1 in the comment thread)

Pretty awesome that he made all those charitable contributions. He seems like a good guy. And of course I love the DRM-free release. I'm glad the special is selling well.

See, now I feel even more awesome about paying my paltry, don't-actually-notice-it-not-being-there $5.
Fucking good on you Louis. How can you not like this guy?
Awesome.


Man you must've had good parents or something. I hate well raised jerks like you!

I don't know how donations work in US taxes but I hope Louis has budgeted appropriately for IRS. I would hate to see him become one of those celebs who down the road finds out he owes Uncle Sam a shitload of money.

EMPIREsays...

those celebs are usually huge money spenders with luxury cars and mansions, who hire someone to watch their money for them.

I could be wrong obviously, but I doubt this is the case.

I'm pretty sure the charity contributions, production expenses and employee bonuses are all 100% deductible, so he'll just have to pay taxes on the part he actually takes home.
