Comedian Pauly Shore confessed recently he thinks he's a sex addict. The funnyman shot a skit for his new reality TV show "Minding The Store" in which he sits down with a real therapist to discuss his problems. And, although is was a largely comical, it has given Shore much to think about.

He says, "It's quite possible that I am (addicted to sex). I think parts of me are. I've been known for girls - at least that's what people tell me. It's like `Pauly Shore's playmates.'

"I don't go out every night and go, `I have to have sex,' but when I first made it onto the scene in my 20s I was partaking in the groupies and having fun.

Now it's 10 years later and how long can that last? How long can I continue that? The groupies exist more now than it did before. I'm like the professor of females. They still come around."

Pauly Montgomery Shore, born February 1, 1968 is an American comedian known for his vivid portrayals of American youth culture. He is of Jewish descent; he and his brother, Peter, are the sons of Sam and Mitzi Shore, who founded the Los Angeles comedy club The Comedy Store.

His television show, Pauly, made television history by airing only one episode and being canceled the next day; it was one of the lowest rated episodes of a television show ever to air.

Currently, Shore has a reality show on TBS, titled "Minding the Store". The series will follow Shore as he takes control of the Comedy Store and attempts to revitalize it.
