Dirty Shrek Mike Myers
Jun 9, 2007, 7:00 GMT
Mike Myers loved voicing Shrek - because he didn't have to shower before going to work.
The Hollywood funnyman, who voices the animated ogre in all three 'Shrek' movies, admits you can be a slob when you only have to speak into a microphone.
Myers told TV Hits magazine: "I'm used to spending a lot of time putting on costumes for my characters so the nicest thing for 'Shrek the Third', and the other two movies, was that I didn't have to take a shower before I went to work!
"I just came as I was and it didn't matter because I was only providing the voice."
Myers - who played several different characters in the 'Austin Powers' movies - loves the 'Shrek' series because, as well as being funny, the films provide children with important moral lessons.
He added: "The movies are a tribute to fairytales that everyone loves. They make you realise that even big ogres have self-esteem issues just like everyone else - and that's a great thing.
