Steve Burns, known for his role on 'Blue's Clues', shared insights on the podcast 'Soul Boom' indicating he made less than waiters while hosting the show initially. He initially viewed the role as a side hustle, as his main focus was voiceover work. Burns revealed that he accidentally auditioned for the on-camera role rather than a voiceover project, which led to his unexpected iconic position. He left the series in 2002, prioritizing his mental health amidst swirling rumors about his departure.
"I got 'Blue's Clues' early, but every waiter I ever knew made more money than I did for the first many seasons of that show."
"One day, I had an audition for what I thought was going to be the voice of a cartoon on a children's television show. And if I had known that it was going to be 'the guy on the show,' on camera, I wouldn't have gone."
