He's famously a man of few words when it comes to life away from the cameras, but TV funnyman Rove McManus, 34, has opened up on his "normal" existence with actress Tasma Walton, crediting the actress for allowing him to enjoy "a great year" in 2008.

As the co-cover star for WHO's Most Intriguing People issue, out today, McManus - spruiking his stuff alongside Megan Gale as the most intriguing entertainer - has revealed his "like-minded" connection with Walton, 34.

"We know each other very well because we've been friends for a long time," says McManus, also 34. "It's nice to be happy."

One of Australia's most powerful media players, he never promotes himself, preferring casual nights at his Melbourne home or buying popcorn for movies with Walton. "It's just the way I do things," says McManus. "I perform for a job. I shouldn't have to do it in my day-to-day."

Intriguing to us, he himself is intrigued by Sir David Attenborough - they lunched in London this year.
