Kenan Thompson says the birth of his daughter Georgia changed him in a hilarious way. The Ohio-born comedian said this during his part in an Apple TV documentary: Fathers. He also stated how his calm ended soon after the birth of his first daughter Georgia.

One day you’re not a father and the next you are. From that moment on you are just a father. And sure, my composure just got sucked out of me. I didn’t know… I didn’t even feel it, but I just started wearing black socks and shorts right away,

said the now 44-year-old actor.

Kenan also said he looked corny in stores and asked too many questions about items that were otherwise super obvious to him.

Thompson said that after his daughter was born, he began to grow and mature in ways he never imagined. He also said it was great for him to see his daughter Georgia do her homework.

Thompson also shared similar sentiments when he appeared on the NBC talk show Today in 2014 Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb about fatherhood, the D2 actor said it really changed him and it was both incredible and the best thing in the world, “like witnessing a real miracle.”

Kenan also added that his baby girl, Gianna, also had a really sly sense of humor. He said those were probably more from their mother, Christina’s side.
