The woman has turned crippling social anxiety into a goldmine. I was listening to her on the Mike Birbiglia podcast, and she said she goes out there and her mind turns into loud static, and this is what comes out of her mouth.
you may be right. but i think she's actually quite bright and understands performance. she is an accomplished actress after all. she can channel her nature to her advantage. and then there's her looks and sexual energy, which is potent.
People saying she’s weird, but all I’m seeing is how most normal (smart and funny, but normal) people would act if they were on a talkshow. We’re so used to the _abnormal_, the unrealistically quick wit and acted out dialogue, that we think this is weird. Aubrey is not weird. She is just real.
You hit it on the head. It is her realness that really sets her apart. She is successful, talented, funny, and beautiful, but despite all of that, she is real. And that is extremely rare in that business.
"Are you on medication, some sort of a..." "Oh, I'm on s-s...oh, no, not prescription." Perfect timing and delivery, and she was watching Dave's reaction. She's one of the funniest people out there.
Well..... Im not sure if she is putting on a show. She is highly intelligent. How can she flip from doing a movie with the opposite characteristics (I actually spelled that without auto spell) and then BOOM... she is a different personality on a talk show.
My favorite interview was the Today show, when she came out dressed as a witch to promote her children’s book, The Christmas Witch. She cursed them and they didn’t know how to take it lol
@@kurtsnyder4752 didn't grow up in the US, so I had to guess that it was the Addams family... Did a Google search and the first couple of pictures revealed a face and expression that could totally be her, so good call!
@@straycatttt2766 I do recall that! Think the only reason she doesn't get called on more is because organizers are probably deathly afraid of what she might say... 😆
Personally seeing the wheels turn in her head as she contemplated how far she'd take that cat ears prop was deep ! , Like the pause at the water dish like maybe he was gonna wear it for putting it down like that in front of her. Borderline scary... but then she went with it ,,, perhaps scarier. She does plenty of those moments like, I could should stab you for that stupidness you just spewed but, naw I'm gonna say some off the wall shit and see how you react. Its actually not that revolutionary for plenty of us that live like that , constant sarcasm at the insanity presented .. just roll with it. She does it to the extreme, even she admits it is because she's un comfortable . Makes sense ..
Aubrey only sounds weird, because that is what being honest sounds like. Most people are so used to lying, deceit, bullshit, and insincerity all the time that someone being real is off-putting.
Her timing is immaculate. I don’t think she actually makes anyone uncomfortable. She is just anti-swarmy. She is so honest that she’s open to being funny by being slightly difficult. Of course she would hate a bunch of fake people pretending to act like they know everything.
Aubrey Plaza is the weirdest celebrity chick out there, but for some reason she’s sexy as hell being her weird, uncomfortable self. She’s gorgeous, quirky, sweet and totally hilarious.
@@aceleste333 it's just an observation, not a put down. Many of us have quirky brains. It can cause suffering, but, hopefully, can be used to our benefit.
It just seems like she doesn't think at all in these interviews and says the first thing on her mind instantly, because it's fun to see where that goes.
Stephen Colbert is very intelligent and can handle conversations no matter where they lead to, and it looks like Aubrey seemed more relaxed in his show based on her body language, more than with other talk shows where the hosts just talk around scripted questions and obviously doesnt know what to do when Aubrey does something out of the topic..
Most comics can't think of the stuff Aubrey just lets roll out of her mouth. Amazing persona. The fact that she's 'drop dead' gorgeous is an added bonus.
Putting her and Pratt in the same show was an improv goldmine. If I try to remember the story arch of Parks and Rec it's a blank in my mind, I just remeber it's funny.
Stephen Colbert talks frequently about how much he loves being put in awkward situations and trying to work with them or work his way out of them, so Aubrey Plaza as a guest on his show is a match made in heaven
She is SO unique, somewhat monotone and a bit flat affect, but her face and EYES are so insanely gorgeous it's overpowering in a way. It's awesome she's so grounded and authentic.
She just likes acting, but not being this charismatic persona that actors are expected to be on talk shows. The first time I saw her on a talk show I was like "wow, she is soooo awkward" 😆. Then I saw that "off-camera" interview, and I was like, actually talk shows themselves are really the awkward thing.
She’s mastered quirky, like she was dropped into Hollywood from another planet. 😅 She knocks each interview off balance which is what makes her so interesting.
I think I've watched every talk show appearance and interview she's done even though I've barely watched any of her work. I've been meaning to change that because what I've seen is very good
I don’t know about you guys but she seems to have gotten a lot more comfortable in interviews over the years with more experience. She seems a lot more capable of plugging whatever movie or project she’s promoting without feeling weird or “fake”. Who do you think interviews her the best? When she started out in her early 20s she was entertaining but visibly nervous on Letterman (which is understandable since he’s intimidating to a lot of guests). Her handful of Fallon appearance were not great and she was on Conan way more than any other show (he’s good at matching her energy imo). Colbert seems to be the second best at interviewing her? In any case, it’s always entertaining and funny watching her despite (because of?) her nerves, which makes her even more endearing to me. Update: as of today (September 25), this video has gotten 118K views and according to UA-cam Analytics, 94% of the viewers are male (similar to by previous Aubrey video…why is UA-cam only pushing it out to men? Do women not like her or something?). Also similar is the age breakdown, which is interesting to me (someone please explain…): 13-17 years old: 0% 18-24: 0.4% 25-34: 1.8% 35-44: 10% 45-54: 24% 55-64: 32% 65+ : 31%
You’re correct. Conan and Colbert can improv with whatever happens. The Off Camera interview with Sam was also well done. He got good information, but it was less about comedy.
On the other hand, she IS a 40 years old professional actor. Would be rather strange if you did something for your entire life and never got any better at it... :)
Look at the interview she just did with Desi Lydic at the Daily Show. At 02:50 she clearly catches herself, the old Aubrey that would have committed to the absurd bit about the dog.
Beautiful human being. So rare for a person to be just immune to stardom. It is a helluva spectacle to see her. Im sure its like absolutely normal and uneventful to have just a spontaneous conversation with her too.
Actually the talk show thing is specifically just an act, and her comedic style, carefully done with good timing and improv skills. She's not nervous about any of it. Many comedic actors do that with their own styles. Yet in business meetings, normal conversational situations, she's as typical and sensible as anyone could be.
Good for her staying genuine. I can see how it would be frustrating trying to act all enthusiastic about a new film (especially when you might not have liked the project). Plus all that pressure to be witty.
What a legend!! She should come on British talk shows. People would probably love her! In fact every country. If she was on a talk show, I would actually watch it!
OMG, she's something else. I could watch another 19:45 min of her antics👉🤣
Actually I’m working on a follow up video of her talking show interviews…
@thesaltycobra yeah, nice! I have the notifications on😊
@@thesaltycobraYour comment made me subscribe! 😂😅
@thesaltycobra Yes. Please come out with that part 2
Only because she looks like that. If she was 200 pounds, most people would never get to appreciate her personality.

Many of us can identify.
It works because she's so easy on the eyes. If you're going to be crippled with social anxiety, do it with a pretty smile and a tight body.
@@A-Milkdromeda-Laniakea-Hominidshe for sure has the tight body. But she has very quick wit too.
@@A-Milkdromeda-Laniakea-Hominidactually pretty much anything works better with a pretty smile and a tight body. For either sex.

Makes her that much more attractive ❤
@@delfinalopez2010yeah.
Her sense of comedic timing is incredible.
She times her reactions perfectly
The “Frankie” @ 11:25 was perfectly timed.
Hard agree! Her response to David's question at 15:20 was absolute impeccable comedic timing! 🖤
"Are you on medication, some sort of a..."
"Oh, I'm on s-s...oh, no, not prescription."
Perfect timing and delivery, and she was watching Dave's reaction. She's one of the funniest people out there.
she says, "oh no, not for the stroke" ~ 15:22
She’s witty, authentic, and charming as hell.
Well..... Im not sure if she is putting on a show. She is highly intelligent. How can she flip from doing a movie with the opposite characteristics (I actually spelled that without auto spell) and then BOOM... she is a different personality on a talk show.
Not really
And Adorable
she's a nut
@@KainsAddictionthis
She's a national treasure. Those hosts must be on a knife edge, wondering what on earth she'll say next.
See what happens when you break out the cat toys...🤔😉🍻
My favorite interview was the Today show, when she came out dressed as a witch to promote her children’s book, The Christmas Witch. She cursed them and they didn’t know how to take it lol
She's a Chaos Comedian and it's INCREDIBLE 🤣
She is.
And with all that and her capacity to shift perspectives and stay at a distance she’d be an amazing cat woman!
That deadpan expression and monotone... While saying something outrageous... And still being attractive thru it all... So unique
If Wednesday Addams needs a slightly older cousin...
@@kurtsnyder4752 didn't grow up in the US, so I had to guess that it was the Addams family... Did a Google search and the first couple of pictures revealed a face and expression that could totally be her, so good call!
She's a crazy hot mess. Reminds me of that FarSide comic which had examples of how Nature says "stay away."
An awards show actually paired Aubrey Plaza with Jenna Ortega for a morbid bit and it was great.
@@straycatttt2766 I do recall that! Think the only reason she doesn't get called on more is because organizers are probably deathly afraid of what she might say... 😆
“Please see the movie.” She’s hilarious. Love her so much.

Absolutely my favorite talk show guest. She's authentic AF.
I knew nothing about her before this video and I already love her. She's so genuine, relatable, and witty. Keep being you, girl.
Watch Parks and recreation. She plays a character that is exactly like her irl
Her timing is immaculate. I don’t think she actually makes anyone uncomfortable. She is just anti-swarmy. She is so honest that she’s open to being funny by being slightly difficult. Of course she would hate a bunch of fake people pretending to act like they know everything.
Her timing is impeccable, but it isn’t immaculate.

Super sexy
She seems a bit on the spectrum and absolutely a genius
I think so too.
I think so three.
maybe, maybe not. she’s also an actress. not everyone needs a label. or could just be a persona, you don’t know how her brain works. 🙄
@@aceleste333 it's just an observation, not a put down. Many of us have quirky brains. It can cause suffering, but, hopefully, can be used to our benefit.
Thanks - that’s how I meant it ❤️
Interviewing Aubrey reminds me of the old saying, "Be careful what you ask for, because you just might get it."
I love the way she can throw someone off their game with a simple funny comment.
It just seems like she doesn't think at all in these interviews and says the first thing on her mind instantly, because it's fun to see where that goes.
She'd be right at home in Finland 😂
Awkward silence? What do you mean, awkward?
I want her to become a late night show host. All her interviews would be awkward and hilarious.
She needs to go on Graham Norton.
Yes!! Somebody ring up Graham right now!
That would actually be dope AF.
Aubrey’s awkwardness is what makes her so charming.
Stephen Colbert is very intelligent and can handle conversations no matter where they lead to, and it looks like Aubrey seemed more relaxed in his show based on her body language, more than with other talk shows where the hosts just talk around scripted questions and obviously doesnt know what to do when Aubrey does something out of the topic..
He also did improv for a long while.
Most comics can't think of the stuff Aubrey just lets roll out of her mouth. Amazing persona. The fact that she's 'drop dead' gorgeous is an added bonus.
You can say that again, and again, and again.
Can't be said any better. Not much more than that to love.
Putting her and Pratt in the same show was an improv goldmine. If I try to remember the story arch of Parks and Rec it's a blank in my mind, I just remeber it's funny.
I think that when it comes to describing her beauty, this would probably be her favourite turn of phrase. Well played.
"which one do you love more?"
"I can't say that!"
...
"Frankie."
😄
Great comedic timing.
She kind of reminds me of the crowd I wish had hung out with as a young adult. Smart, fun, and artsy.
That seems like an unhealthy way of thinking lol
And possibly high functioning autistic.
That's who I hung out with, and see how I turned out !😂
My favorite Aubrey interview is when she put on the cat ears and became a cat before our very eyes!
That black and white bit looks like a waiting room for heaven.
I like the way she dresses !
She doesn't wear much and that's just fine with me.
She is very similar to Teri Garr as a talk show guest. All the same qualities.
I think Teri Garr, like Goldie Hawn, were playing the ditzy girl role.
Aubrey seems genuinely ditzy, if that makes sense.
I love this, because I've always loved Teri Garr too. Aubrey Plaza, Teri Garr and Goldie Hawn are each so sexy in their own way
Stephen Colbert talks frequently about how much he loves being put in awkward situations and trying to work with them or work his way out of them, so Aubrey Plaza as a guest on his show is a match made in heaven
17:40 making Marty and Andy audibly laugh is a massive stamp of approval.
She is SO unique, somewhat monotone and a bit flat affect, but her face and EYES are so insanely gorgeous it's overpowering in a way. It's awesome she's so grounded and authentic.
I loved Aubrey in "Emily The Criminal." And no, it's not a comedy.
Great Film
4:18 - 'Because...I...like it!'
I was NOT expecting that last clip
The genius of abrupt discontinuity inviting the hysterical absurd. What a gift! Thanks.
Love her ability to laugh at herself.
I absolutely love this woman.
I love how comedians find her super amuzing!
She just likes acting, but not being this charismatic persona that actors are expected to be on talk shows. The first time I saw her on a talk show I was like "wow, she is soooo awkward" 😆. Then I saw that "off-camera" interview, and I was like, actually talk shows themselves are really the awkward thing.
She's so freaking funny and authentic. I'm not into celebrities but she's special.
Dat a 'TISM response. She and Fern Brady need to get together and stream the meeting.
👍
Yep she epitomizes Atypical
Her clips with Conan are the best by far
There's comedy gold in that chemistry!
Normal people: People on TV are weird...
Aubrey Plaza: HOLD my beer
She's so awesome.
She’s mastered quirky, like she was dropped into Hollywood from another planet. 😅 She knocks each interview off balance which is what makes her so interesting.
Nicely put lol
8:30 Conan looks like he is wearing a Conan mask.
She is so funny, I could watch her for hours :D
I think I've watched every talk show appearance and interview she's done even though I've barely watched any of her work. I've been meaning to change that because what I've seen is very good
She’s best in Parks & Rec.
@@taoist32 I've mostly seen her in Legion and she rocked that role
@@antivanti Cool. She’s awesome in everything.
When social awkwardness ensues hilarity. The way she feels is so relatable.
I love her. She’s so authentic. And so hot
The fact that she is obviously being her authentic self and it’s not an act, is why she’s so funny. She’s just a naturally odd person 🤣
That “thank you” after Delaware is incredible.
She's the best on talk shows!
She's awesome !!! I love her snd Conan Obrien together too their banter it's great!!!!
She is such an amazing woman. She is crazy talented and naturally hilarious.
Oh, to be able to look inside her mind.
The last clip was absolutely unhinged 😆
Her improv roots, serve her well, especially when she embraces the awkwardness.

Colbert seems to have got on the right level, Letterman was many steps behind her.
Letterman pissed me off. Almost every interview I see of him he is pushing way too hard and being excessively intrusive and rude.
I have social anxiety and am snarky..
This lady is after my own heart...
"Yeah that's right"😂
"I'm doing it now,
You say so but I'm up here.😂
Beautiful human being. So rare for a person to be just immune to stardom. It is a helluva spectacle to see her. Im sure its like absolutely normal and uneventful to have just a spontaneous conversation with her too.
Audren CRACKS me up! She if so beautiful and FUNNY!
She is gorgeous and a great natural woman

On par with a Harrison Ford interview.
Both likely autistic.
omg in that old interview her voice sounds so much younger and lighter she was just a baby
That's just part of what makes AP, AP. Love her.
I absolutely love watching her because she makes my socially awkwardness seem like nothing next to her.
It's hilarious that she broke out a tarot deck on hot ones.
Very authentic autistic
she is such a comedianne without even trying.. She has a witty repartie even when brought about by nervousness.😅
I've seen a lot of her clips but you edited them pleasantly ❤
I’ve always thought that she is just an utterly charming person.
She is delightful.
She is just affirming every single reason why we absolutely love watching her interviews. 😂🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍
I absolutely love Aubrey Plaza. I'm so glad she's finally getting the recognition and roles she deserves!
I absolutely love this woman. She’s refreshing because she’s different. Gorgeous ❤
Aubrey was my girlfriend when we were 13 years old
Keep going...
I'm glad I'm not the one who has to live with that fumble....
Shes a philosopher like no other, a genius. Wish I could meet her
She's exceedingly odd....and strikingly attractive. She confuses me. lol
Love her cat woman bit!
I mean, I wouldn't hate that casting. It'd be like RDJ as Iron Man, the casting no one knew everyone needed.
Good for her staying genuine. I can see how it would be frustrating trying to act all enthusiastic about a new film (especially when you might not have liked the project). Plus all that pressure to be witty.
best interviews always on conan, she is hilarious
I love her so much after watching this

She's truly off the rails. Love it.
