Melissa McCarthy and Ben Falcone may be one of the funniest couples in Tinseltown, but that doesn't mean they're part of the Hollywood scene.
The couple are currently promoting their new team-up movie Tammy, which sees Ben direct his wife in a road trip/ family comedy which co-stars Susan Sarandon.
While it was the first time Ben has got behind the camera, he's told GQ that he's used to Melissa bossing him around at work. Speaking about that improvised lunch meat scene at the end of their box office smash Bridesmaids, he laughed: "Melissa was like, Hurry, take your shirt off and put on this lunch meat. I'm like, I guess this is what we do on Thursdays?"

In fact the couple really do have a pretty low-key life, telling Entertainment Tonight at last night's Tammy premiere that they'd much rather be hanging out at home than doing a red carpet, no offence!
"We're not very Hollywood," Melissa insisted. "We have little kids, we stay in our little area. [If we weren't here] we would be sitting in our backyard."
"Having some sort of a barbeque," Falcone added. "Maybe have a Guinness."

Of the secret to their nine year marriage, Melissa said it was a simple: "I think you find the nicest in the world, and you marry him," she explained.
"We have a lot of fun," her hubby added. "I think she's the best person in the room, so I'm just delighted."
