No disgruntled pelicans here! Catherine O’Hara has been making people laugh on screen since the ‘70s — and fans hope she never stops.The Toronto native, who is the second youngest of seven children, has always been a fan of the ensemble cast partly because of her roots. “I’ve never, for a second, been drawn to the idea of doing a one-woman show,” O’Hara told Time in March 2019, noting her family’s dynamic played a part in her desire to become a comedian. “Because it’s so inspiring to work with good, talented people.”The desire to collaborate with her peers served the Emmy-winning actress well when she joined the cast of Canada’s SCTV in 1974.
The series launched O’Hara’s comedy career and introduced her to longtime friend Eugene Levy, whom she later starred alongside in Best in Show, For Your Consideration and Pop TV’s Schitt’s Creek.“Everyone has been in love with Catherine since she was 17,” Martin Short told Vanity Fair in May 2020, pointing to the first time he met the actress working at Second City Toronto. “No one made me laugh like her onstage.
And she always brought a humanity to her characters. They always had a bent reality, but they were never not kind.”O’Hara’s life continued to play out like a true Hollywood fairy tale after starring in 1988’s Beetlejuice.
Not only did the film make her a real movie star, but while filming the cult classic, she met the man of her dreams, Bo Welch.After uprooting her life for love in the late ’80s, the Home Alone star struck gold playing Kate McAllister in the 1990 holiday hit.
