US comedian Kevin Hart has stopped talking about his teenage daughter in his comedy shows after she 'threatened' him.
The 44-year-old comic - who has Heaven, 19, and Hendri, 16, with ex-wife Torrei and Kenzo, six, and three-year-old Kaori with spouse Eniko - has had to be more 'conscious' of his family's wishes as the kids have got older, and his oldest child previously admitted she was unhappy with her private life being used to entertain audiences, eventually asking him to stop joking about her entirely.
Appearing on '60 Minutes', Heaven said: 'Why is he blowin' my business out there? He's a sneaky little guy.'
Kevin admitted: 'As your kid grows older you have to be a little more conscious of what you're doing based off of what they feel, what they like, and what they don't.
'So, I haven't talked about her since 'cause she gave me, like, a hard threat.'
His daughter confirmed: 'I did. I threatened him.'
But one topic the 'Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle' actor is happy to poke fun at in his shows is his height, as he doesn't feel he is making himself into 'a joke'.
He said: Its talking about the things that you arent afraid to laugh at about yourself. Im really confident that the laugh that Im getting, youre not laughing necessarily at me as if Im a joke.
'Youre laughing at the experience. Im giving you an experience through a story that is relatable. And more importantly, Im saying things that other people just dont have the heart to say.
Kevin was asked to clarify just how tall he is because GQ said youre 55', the L.A. Times says youre 54', and some other place said you were 52'.
He told host Anderson Cooper: Well, that place is bull. GQ finally got it right. [Im] 5-foot-5, like with a shoe on, like a sneaker. Now, if I put a boot on, I can get to 55' and a half.
The 'Ride Along' star played down claims he is a billionaire.
Asked about his wealth, he replied: None of your business. Man, are you trying to get me robbed?
I mean, hopefully and even if I dont or if Im not, I think the better side to what Ive done is create what can become the new norm for other people in the business of funny for other people in the business of entertainment, right?
'Not just being a part of the business, but learning and understanding how to be the business.
