- Marissa (after Adam Carolla's departure on Dancing with the Stars): Adam (Carolla) and I got along so well. Adam's gone! Penn [Jillette] is gone. The "Gutte" [Steve Guttenberg] is gone. I've got the pressure of being the funny one backstage now! I have to hold the torch. I love Adam. I've become a huge fan of his radio show. I "get" him now. He's hilarious.
