      I don’t think that a person who’s not a native English speaker could actually come up with this line on the spot, I think they prepared some lines before, and she just used them very well (which is also a talent)

      I'm also not a native English speaker myself, I don't doubt the ability of people like me to make jokes, just not to improvise linguistic jokes in a language that we're not fluent in. I actually read the comments before I saw the whole interview, I thought that this comment was about the fact that she said this line during an improvised scene, so I said that she probably didn't just come up with it on the spot, and she really didn't. anyways, after I saw the whole interview I realised that she was talking about an audition that she had time to prepare for, so I can believe that she (or someone from her country) came up with it, because they had time to prepare jokes.

When Sacha speaks to her, she responds in Bulgarian. She also spoke Bulgarian on the Jimmy Kimmel interview/bit. Love that people can hear and be exposed to our language and maybe get curious about our culture and history! We are a very old nation with such rich history and traditions, and it is a shame what has happened to us in the last 30-40 years.

    The human trafficking comment was not a joke. Look up the movie The Paradise Suite. Another brilliant performance by a young Bulgarian actor. Much more difficult to watch.

    I just finished watching Borat 2. I can say without any reservation that Maria carried 90% of the film.
    Can't believe how effortlessly she matched SBC's chaotic energy step for step! Brilliant actress. ❤️
