In a recent interview, Chumlee professed that he is content with his life and role on the show Pawn Stars, adding that he feels very lucky.
When questioned if he still feels like a normal person, he was quick to respond that he drives to the grocery store and buys his own groceries just like everybody else, even if it is in a Maserati.
Cartoon Nickname
Austin "Chumlee" Russell is a big guy, and it seems that he was always a little bit beefier than the other children. Which explains the fitting nickname 'Chumlee,' which comes from the cartoon called Tennessee Tuxedo.
One of the characters was a big walrus named Chumlee, and it was one of Russell's friends that noticed the similarity and that's how the nickname stuck.
DJ ChumLEE
Chumlee is also known for another unexpected talent, which is his ability to spin records on a turntable and play a groovy tune.
Chumlee frequents various clubs and occasions in the Las Vegas area, as an MC and DJ to earn a bit more money.
Rick Is a Conservative
Rick doesn't necessarily talk about his political views but it is known that he is not enthusiastic about Former President, Barack Obama. Rick had issues with the many regulations that the Obama administration passed during his presidency.
One of Rick's biggest reservations was that he couldn't give loans out to active-duty members of the United State Military and that he was required to pay a person to keep an eye out for all the new regulations which kept heaping up.
The Most Watched Reality TV Show
2012 had proved to be a remarkable year for reality TV, and it was also one of the Pawn Stars' best years. Up until then, the show had steadily begun growing in popularity since its debut back in 2009 on The History Channel, but 2012 was when America actually fell in love with the Harrisons and Chumlee.
The only show that performed better than Pawn Stars was 'The Jersey Shore.'
