Mike Myers: Sex is still in vogue

Mike Myers believes sex and rebellion are as "attractive" as always.

The 51-year-old Canadian actor directed biography Supermensch: The Legend of Shep Gordon, which details the life of Hollywood insider Shep.

Shep has worked with the likes of Alice Cooper and Jimi Hendrix, and Mike believes the rock and roll antics shown in his documentary prevail today.

"Sex, violence and rebellion have not lost any of their attraction," he conceded to planet-interview.de.

"But many parents these days enjoy consuming these things as much as their kids do."

Mike will always be remembered for his 1992 classic Wayne's World, which he wrote and starred in. The film was what originally brought him and Shep together.

"I met him for the first time in 1991, when I was in the midst of planning my Wayne's World shoot," he revealed.

"I really wanted to use one of my favourite Alice Cooper songs in the movie. Shep is his agent. I told him, 'I'd like to have I'm Eighteen or School's Out.' He said, 'How about one of the songs from the new record' I said, 'How about no' And he rumbled in his deep voice, 'As far as I'm aware, you start shooting in two weeks. So you have no choice...' And that's why Alice Cooper sings Feed My Frankenstein in Wayne's World!"

Shep plays himself in the documentary, with Alice, Michael Douglas and Sylvester Stallone also making an appearance.

Mike explained a little of what he was trying to convey with the project.

"It shows that even someone who walked around in a T-shirt that said 'No blowjob, no backstage pass' can be a Supermensch, in Yiddish terms," he laughed.
