Oscar-winner Nicolas Cage says he was so obsessed with the popular show ‘The Dating Game’ in his teen years that he applied to be a contestant.

The 50-year-old ‘Joe’ star managed to get accepted on the show despite being just 15, but his father refused to let him take part, reported New York Post.

“In My first audition I was underage. Only 15. Even that young I tried to be accepted on ‘The Dating Game’. I used to love seeing that, and always somehow managed to, although my father said I couldn’t watch it. Anyhow, he wouldn’t let me do the show,” Cage said.

The actor, who has sons Weston, 23, with ex-girlfriend Christina Fulton and Kal-El, eight, with third wife Alice Kim, said he has a very normal home life with his kids.

“I am a regular at- home dad to him — not some movie star. I play with him, go out with him, do all those
parent-child things like any other father,” he said.
