Bill Engvall was another actor/comedian that FaithHollywoodTV was able to interview on the 2015 Movieguide Awards Red Carpet. This interview was special because Engvall was hosting the awards. He was excited to be back and create another fun show for audiences to engage with. As the host, one would think he would be nervous, but he was calm and collected. However, he did admit he was nervous on the inside. The key to hosting an awards show is to “keep the circus moving.” This is Engvall’s second time hosting the Movieguide Awards. He is passionate about the awards because people need family faith based films in a society where there is a lot of negative content. He wants people to watch this positive experience and be able to say, “things are okay, and we’re going to be okay.” The actor was full of positivity and even joked that he would return to Dancing with the Stars if he were asked to!

Bill: You know? ‘That we’re gonna be okay.’
Host: Yeah.
Bill: And—and I think that’s what you can ask for in the world.

Bill: ‘Specially if I get interviewed by people like you.
