Aubrey Plaza Revealed She's Genuinely Uncomfortable During Candid Conversations
Although it would appear as though Plaza is playing things up for entertainment purposes, that is not the case. Plaza stated that she feels "uncomfortable on many levels." It tends to be a coping strategy for Plaza.
She told The Independent, “I think it’s hilarious that people know me from my talk show appearances and not my actual work,” she says, in a voice that suggests she doesn’t. “I just think that they’re silly, and the format makes me uncomfortable on so many levels, so my way of dealing with it is to just play into that."
Plaza adds that she adds to it during interviews, given how into it fans are.
"But I think there is an element of me unconsciously giving people what they want. You’re weird on talk shows and then people expect that again and then you get caught in this trap. It’s funny because I’m very nervous before I go on. I don’t have this elaborate performance ready; I’m literally just trying to be normal. But I can’t do it.”
“I’ve always made a spectacle of myself in public. I’ve always humiliated myself in large groups of people.”
Whatever Plaza is doing, it is clearly working as fans can't get enough of her interviews, binge-watching them over the years.
