	Actors - KC Armstrong

Kyle Casey (K.C.) Armstrong (born July 17, 1975) is an actor, amateur bodybuilder, model, and comedian.

He was formerly a quarterback for the Western Kentucky University football team, and associate producer and on-air personality on The Howard Stern Radio Show.

Armstrong shamed himself during the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York City, when Howard Stern stayed on the air with his cast/crew while many other broadcasters fled the city. Armstrong was the notable exception, as he left the city immediately, visited a tanning salon, and refused to return for several days. Stern and every other member of the show continued to broadcast over the subsequent days following the disaster.

In other show appearances, Armstrong was frequently mocked for stupidity ("You don't serenade a steak, you marinate it. These are the people I have working for me, ladies and gentlemen.") and his (alleged) homosexuality. Armstrong is known for discussing his completely abnormal perceptions of people and situations (including romantic) on the air.

In late 2004, Armstrong was fired from the show for his absenteeism, which was caused by drug and alcohol abuse, per his call into the show on July 1, 2005. On the July 26, 2005 Stern show, Armstrong called in to explain how he has come to hate K-Rock General Manager Tom Chiusano, who was responsible for firing him. A confrontation ensued with Chiusano, moderated by Stern.

Robin Quivers stepped in and cautioned Armstrong to accept the fact that his interpretations of events have caused him problems in the past, and that he should not trust his analysis of the situation now. Quivers pointed out that Armstrong's ability to discern does not comport with reality in general.

Undeterred, Armstrong expressed his bile for Chiusano, the exchange ended with Tom denying having ever disrespected Armstrong. Armstrong made it clear he blamed Chiusano for his hasty departure.

On the December 14, 2005 Stern show, Armstrong appeared in person (with the director of the California rehab he attended) and apologized to Chiusano for his on-air behavior in July. He acknowledged that Chiusano had treated him well during his employment, and his termination was fair, considering Armstrong's mental state and work habits at the time of his firing.

Armstrong has acted in three movies: Death4Told, Grace and the Storm and Secret War. He has also appeared in the comedy DVD Meet the Creeps.

Armstrong now lives in California, where he is trying to start a career in acting and has released his own comedy DVD Die Laughing through his web site. Armstrong started accepting orders for the disc in May, but has not sent the orders out as of December 2005.

In January of 2006 Armstrong called in to the Howard Stern show from the rehab clinic he was living at. He apologized for missing Stern's birthday, explaining that he had ended up in a stolen vehicle somehow and fallen asleep behind the wheel. Armstrong also vigorously defended the delayed release of his DVD, claiming that it was finished and would begin shipping soon.

As of March 24, 2006 the DVD has not yet been finished or shipped to the hundreds of people who have ordered and paid for it. A class action lawsuit is being prepared against Armstrong.
