My wife and I were sitting in bed, and we’re watching television. And at the time, Paul Newman was still alive and he was on one of the talk shows. And they kept saying like, ‘The sexiest man, Paul Newman’. I looked at my wife and I said it’s amazing, if somebody’s deemed sexy, they’re sexy." From that moment, Nash knew what he wanted to call himself on television: "I then said I’m gonna go on f***ing TV Monday and I’m gonna call myself ‘Big Sexy’," he added.
