Melissa Rauch LOST commercial because of Hobbit Hands

Melissa Rauch is opening up about her hands.

Melissa Rauch is thinking back on her bad audition when she first started appearing in commercials.

The Big Bang Theory star revealed to The View's presenters that she had her hands shamed during an audition while promoting her upcoming part in NBC's Night Court reboot series.

"When I was first auditioning and going out for commercials, my hands really stood in the way. I sort of have Hobbit hands.... especially when I was living in New York, they were always chapped," she said on the show.

"I was in the running for a [TGI] Friday's commercial to play a waitress, and I was down to the wire on it. They asked for my availability for the next week," Rauch continued.

"I was in the callback, and they said, 'Okay, great, so glad you're available next week. One more thing, can we just see your hands to the camera? Show them back and front,'" she remembered of the audition process.

"I did that, and I heard the director from behind the camera go, 'Jesus Christ!' I didn't get the job."

As her Night Court resurrection premieres on Tuesday, decades after the original legendary series' final episode in 1992 after nine seasons, Rauch is currently hard at work.
