Pee Wee Herman is a green celebrityCharitable celeb and funny actor Paul Reubens (a.k.a. Pee Wee Herman) has had a tough couple of decades. He went from having a hit television show and being a major motion picture star to being D-listed in Hollywood social circles after being arrested at a dirty movie theater in Sarasota, Florida back in the 1990s. After starring in a slew of wonderful but bad B movies (playing bit parts for a number of years), Pee Wee finally hit the big time again when he took the Pee Wee Herman Show on Broadway — as a musical Gen X fans could enjoy even if they new nothing about live theater. Regardless of his troublesome PR difficulties, he has used whatever Hollywood star power and fame to help promote countless charity benefit organization projects as a famous humanitarian.

In recent weeks, Reubens has been spotted sitting next to actress Courtney Cox at all the Dancing With The Stars tapings. He has been in the live studio audience to cheer on good friend David Arquette (a contestant on DWTS Season 13 in 2011). Always cheering on the competitors, every camera pass that shows American television viewers a glimpse of the star reveals a transfixed celebrity with the biggest grin. You can just tell how much the actor with the colorful past loves seeing the dancers and is dazzled by the bright lights and sequins.

That’s why his recent confession to Hollywood Life was no surprise — Paul hopes to be picked up to dance a season on Dancing With The Stars himself! He told the celebrity gossip writers, “My dance skills are pretty awesome, I’m cultivating them even further so if I am on next year then I’ll be ready!” when he spoke with them at the SCREAM Awards on Oct. 15. Regarding his friend David Arquette’s performance he said, “I think he has shocked himself, it’s been incredible.”

Will fans get to see Pee Wee Herman again don his dancing shoes to dance to “Tequila” and more next season? Stay tuned to ABC, America. If you want to get in touch with him before then, you might want to connect with Paul on Twitter. If you work with a non-profit organization or volunteer with a charity benefit committee, he might be just the right green celebrity to reach out to have help promote your cause or event.
