Trivia
- Voice actor Jess Harnell auditioned for the role of SpongeBob before Kenny was chosen.[1]
- Over the years, many fans of the show have asked Kenny to lend SpongeBob's voice to their voice email and answering machines. In an interview, he joked that these custom messages might be more common than the factory (default voice).
Tom Kenny with Nylon Pink
- Kenny also does the voice of the announcer at the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards every year.[citation needed]
- Kenny first used the voice for SpongeBob for a minor female alligator character called Al on Rocko's Modern Life who appeared in the episode "Dear John." This is also the first time Kenny and Stephen Hillenburg worked together. Hillenburg wanted Kenny to use that voice for SpongeBob, so he showed him a clip of Al in Rocko's Modern Life to remind Kenny of the voice.
- He also voiced Han "Chuck" Solo in the Angry Birds Star Wars Cinematic Trailer. Han's laugh also sounds similar to SpongeBob's.[2]
- To produce SpongeBob's trademark laugh, Kenny pats his throat while saying "ah."[3]
- His birthday is July 13, one day before SpongeBob's, on July 14.
- "Mall Girl Pearl" is the only episode where Tom Kenny voices SpongeBob once (due to the character only having one line in the episode).
- When SpongeBob jellyfishes, he wears glasses that look similar to those of his portrayer.
- Tom Kenny is the only actor to voice 2 of the main SpongeBob characters.
- He is the only actor of the series to get credited on every episode of the show.
- In the 2017 San Diego Comic Con, he said his favorite SpongeBob meme is "Mocking SpongeBob."[4]
- The drop of Volcano Sauce was shot in the Nickelodeon restroom and Tom Kenny had to wear red makeup all over his face to portray the character. He also had an audition on that same day the scene was shot, but the red makeup did not completely come off in time.[5]
- Before SpongeBob even became a global success, Tom showed a VHS of the pilot to random people and even his family and it made them laugh. [6]
- Tom doesn't have a laptop, so the only way he can see memes is when Bill Fagerbakke sends it to him on his phone.[7]
- Tom and his wife, Jill, appear in the music video for Tonight, Tonight by The Smashing Pumpkins.
