Conan is one of the few talk show hosts that actually understands Aubrey’s humor. It’s so refreshing to see someone so easily banter back and forth with her because ususually people have no idea how to keep it going. Conan and Aubrey have amazing chemistry and I can’t get enough of their interviews!
Yeah, I think I see what you're referring to. It's as if she was forming her thoughts at the same time she articulated them and processed what she just said right after, which I think a lot of that comes from her improv comedy background.
Not to compare myself to the great Aubrey Plaza of course, but I do the same thing. For me it's just because I find it really difficult to keep conversation flowing for some reason. I'm just generally kind of awkward when it comes to it. Not to play armchair psychologist, but maybe it's as simple as that for her as well.
@burteriksson Not really. She's done multiple "legit" interviews where she explains that she accidentally screws up the interview and just says stuff on the spot instead of following the usual procedure actors do during interviews. She's gotten better over the years and does well in interviews nowadays, however.
val roe honestly tho. i was literally lmao the entire video despite watching countless clips of her and knowing what her humor was like, even while the audience was silent most of the video.
I've watched countless interviews with this woman and it's just impossible to say if she is ever being serious. It takes skill as an interviewer to be able to follow that level of brilliancy, and Conan is one of the few that knows how to do that to get the most out of her. I love her so much.
This shows why Conan is a pro. Most other hosts would have thought this was not going well and she probably wouldn’t have been invited back. Conan actually allowed it to be what it was, and facilitated some great comedy.
I'll occasionally get an Aubrey/Conan clip in my feed, and I'll sit and watch 30mins to an hour of old clips of them. Never gets old. They're both hilarious. 😄
I hate it that in any of the Aubrey Plaza interviews I saw the audience is always kinda scared to laugh or don't laugh at all like DAMN y'all have a girl that is literally comedy gold in everything that comes out of her mouth, show some respect!!!
She throws off the timing of the usual talkshow cues for people to laugh. It's a more organic, whole-grain form of call and response. A group that comprises a typical audience are expected to laugh on cue, and her subverting the timing leads to them waiting for their cue, so it gets drawn out in a way that can be interpreted as them not liking it. Molasses, not sugar.
Letterman is the only other host I've seen that instantly got her schtick and let her run with it. What was fascinating is that Dave knew every single time one of her stories was bullshit, and he either laughed and let her run with it, or just to let her know he was on to her, he would say 'No you didn't", chuckle and then let her go into her next crazy story. It was amazing watching the old consummate pro dance with the young quirky crazy girl like they were old friends. Dave was always great at recognizing the few of her caliber and instantly changing his style to set them up to go full throttle by asking them the right questions, being quiet, and then drawing out just a little bit more to keep them running with it. You could tell he was just so happy to sit back and watch those types do their thing. He was soooo much better than Leno.
Honestly, people say she's weird, but the only reason she comes across that way is because she's not comfortable putting on a fake glossy PR persona like you're expected to on this type of show. Like, she might make stuff up/kid around, but she doesn't smile and lie at you while expecting you to believe it, you know? I think it's honestly so inspiring.
She feels so relatable. I can't really figure out if that's indicative of my own awkwardness or if she's just cleanly portraying social awkwardness in a way that most people can relate to. I feel like people tend to differ in their sensitivity to perceive awkwardness. Where some people are aware that social situations in themselves are/can be full of potentially awkward elements, others seem blind to it. Then again social awkwardness is a social construct and is limited to exist within and among people. The more social the person is, the more 'real' the interpersonal awkwardness. Whereas a person who is not as social can still find awkwardness in things that the rest of the group don't ascribe awkwardness to. For this reason I suppose there are a multitude of conceptions of awkwardness: 1. Intersubjective awkwardness: Something is awkward when a group collectively finds the situation embarrasing or unpleasant. 2. Subjective awkwardness: Whether or not something is awkward is solely determined in the eye of the beholder. And easily an infinity of other definitions . Can social awkwardness be said to be objective? I don't know where I'm going with this, but I guess I feel very awkward.
ooo this is very interesting. i think in general (besides group situations where ppl think something is awkward because everyone around them deems it awkward) awkwardness is subjective kinda like embarrassment is. it’s only embarrassing if you feel embarrassed. imo, a situation is awkward only if you feel awkward. definitely agree w what you’re saying
I have this sense of humour Most people will never understand you're making a joke Fun to see it in someone else lol And yes, in case people don't realise: it's NOT awkwardness. It's entirely deliberate. Most people just don't realise.
Black Irish refers to Spanish/Sephardic and North-West African genetic 'influence' in the Hibernian gene pool. Aubrey knows her history... A unique and enigmatic genius in my opinion.
@@alcapoontangmooseinthepoos2310 Idk, I get jumpy when I get a letter from somewhere I haven't heard from in a while, just because I've had companies fuck up and send bills to the wrong address that made them way, way overdue. Usually when you get something it's because you owe money to someone. But I'd guess for her it's a whole other level, just because she's famous and has to deal with that 2% of her psycho stalker fanbase who would actually do some batshit insane things.
Conan is just enjoying the situation, I feel a lot of other Talkshow hosts (except Colbert) feel threatened by her combo of being really intelligent sexy and not giving shit about pleasing anyone who does not get her
The way she looks at Andy when she says she's afraid of mail is genius, her timing is great- and then Conan is just fascinated by her delivery at the end, his face when she's doing that bit

I think other hosts understand it too, but they are way too afraid of what might be coming.
Conan is the only talk show host to get comedians
My favorite is norm mcdonald and harland williams Conan but she's up there with my favorite too
Conan is a really good host. He can handle bill burr well too. Conan and graham norton are probably the best talk show hosts
Shame she was never interviewed by Craig Ferguson
Sometimes, it seems like even she’s throw off by what she’s saying
I think its cuz the audience wont automatically laugh so she doesn't know if it hit or miss but its cuz humor is nuanced
Yeah, I think I see what you're referring to. It's as if she was forming her thoughts at the same time she articulated them and processed what she just said right after, which I think a lot of that comes from her improv comedy background.
It's because she's doing improv. She doesn't know what she's gonna say until she says it. She's great at it, one of the best I've seen.
@@WarmLittleDiamond90 Totally agree!

She’s the biggest troll in hollywood i love her so much
She photobombed Hillary Clinton and Katy Perry... That was awesome!
@Amber133 Xo nobody cares
She's not troll she's just that awkward.
@@anonymous2964 tbh i think she is both
Yep! Totally agree. She will just say whatever & be effortlessly hilarious!
"Sometimes I'll start a sentence, and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way."
- Aubrey Plaza
- Michael Scott
It's a thing.
Imagine if she was in that show hahahah
Nah, she's smarter than that.
That's how I talk when I'm high. I begin a sentence, forget just where it was headed, and let nature take its course.
@@idontevenhaveapla7224 Both shows were created basically by the same people.
Conan gets her.
This is the interview where Conan fell in love with Aubrey Plaza.
@Amber133 Lee no one gives a shit about that
oh because shes Irish
@Amber133 Lee the fuck this is your 5th comment commenting this shit
@@sanjogpawar1874 HALF
Can't blame him. This is the interview where whomever wasn't in love with her...well now they are.
i wish this was 2 hour longer, hell make it a movie 😂 their chemistry is perfect
It's like watching a conversation of a dad with a past of harcore trolling and a begginer troll daughter.
"Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend" enters the chat
It’s amazing to me how she can somehow be both super socially awkward and also not care what anyone thinks
Micah Goldson that’s because she knows everyone else is stupid 😂
It's because insecurity and social awkwardness don't go hand in hand. That's more social anxiety.
It's because she's not awkward, she just comes off awkward. You can come off awkward without feeling awkward. It's called perception
@burteriksson Not really. She's done multiple "legit" interviews where she explains that she accidentally screws up the interview and just says stuff on the spot instead of following the usual procedure actors do during interviews. She's gotten better over the years and does well in interviews nowadays, however.
Every socially awkward person I know doesn’t care what anyone thinks. That’s part of what makes them socially awkward.
its like people are so afraid to laugh in this clip. they have to wait for Conan to approve that what she said was funny.
val roe honestly tho. i was literally lmao the entire video despite watching countless clips of her and knowing what her humor was like, even while the audience was silent most of the video.
Audience members of talk shows tend to be a bunch of sheep.
In our modern society is normal to wait for the host to approve. That's why I like Craig Ferguson and his chemistry with the audiences.
elnombre funny is subjective. You only get to decide that for yourself.
@@danieldmyers shes not funny at all
I'm guessing this was her first Conan appearance. Many, many more were to come, all of them very entertaining. Thank you, Chris, for posting this!
Conan asks her to come back---"Oh no no no...."
We was wwww
If she seriously just does this for a living, I'd watch every show.
she the reason i started parks and rec
Me too. She is just so hot looking to me. Can't stop watching her.
She does this 100% of her life no matter where she is. So....yes....watch every show and interview she ever does.
@@repealthepatriotactI’d never heard of her until a month or so ago and have watched a bunch of her interviews, she’s hilarious
@@iVan123same lol
3:29 the question. The reply and the delivery timing. The awkward pause. And suddenly everyone bursts out laughing. Classic Audrey. Comedy gold.
I've watched countless interviews with this woman and it's just impossible to say if she is ever being serious. It takes skill as an interviewer to be able to follow that level of brilliancy, and Conan is one of the few that knows how to do that to get the most out of her. I love her so much.
That "NO. No no no no." was perfect.
This shows why Conan is a pro. Most other hosts would have thought this was not going well and she probably wouldn’t have been invited back. Conan actually allowed it to be what it was, and facilitated some great comedy.
it was going perfectly well actually
I'll occasionally get an Aubrey/Conan clip in my feed, and I'll sit and watch 30mins to an hour of old clips of them. Never gets old. They're both hilarious. 😄
*Jordan Schlansky needs to meet Aubrey Plaza.*
YES
Oh my God yesss!!!!
It makes me so happy when the audience actually laughs at her humor
I hate it that in any of the Aubrey Plaza interviews I saw the audience is always kinda scared to laugh or don't laugh at all like DAMN y'all have a girl that is literally comedy gold in everything that comes out of her mouth, show some respect!!!
They're sheep.
They don't wana miss a word is why

She's awesome, can't get enough of her.
I can watch her for hours.
She reminds me of a darker phoebe 😂
Amber133 Lee well aren’t you just a Christmas present under the three 😂🙌🏼
@Amber133 Xo no one care...
Phoebe was already dark.
@@ZoeSummers1701A “my mom had just killed herself, and my stepdad had gone to prison ...”
Lol. You mean "Phoebe Cates"?
That sip of water was perfection
OMG Aubrey is very talented & absolutely gorgeous 😍
I think Aubrey, Conan, and Andy would make a great show in itself. They all seem to have good character with each other.
Right? Just offer her a spot that she can join them just when she wants to or has time to just talk about whateveris going on.
It’s impossible not to love her. Her genuine awkwardness has a charming sincerity to it. And being beautiful doesn’t hurt.
She is not at all awkward, she takes the piss with everyone.
5:41 is just 20 seconds of awkward, reckless gold
These two have the best interview dynamic
God I just love her. She’s just an amazing and very interesting individual. 😂❤
I would pay good money to see a convo with her and tiffany haddish lol
That was one of the funniest interviews I've ever seen.
Audrey is such a breath of fresh air compared to the usual PR generic answers others give. So adorably weird.
Honestly, people say she's weird, but the only reason she comes across that way is because she's not comfortable putting on a fake glossy PR persona like you're expected to on this type of show. Like, she might make stuff up/kid around, but she doesn't smile and lie at you while expecting you to believe it, you know? I think it's honestly so inspiring.
Wow I couldn’t agree with you more .
"the blood of Christ" means throw the ball to the corner 😂
Conan is one of the few who know how to roll with her crazy vibe.
All the greats always will turn to Andy many many times during their interviews. Especially the hilarious ones.
Lol she’s so cute and funny and down to earth..and original..and beautiful 😍
They do indeed have very smooth and entertaining exchanges here. She is a very unique person. Very talented. Beautiful! 😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤
She is not acting or pretending, she is like this, I know more women like her. Beauty with a complex mind.
I watched this at least 1000 times this year
If they did a podcast together it would be GOLD
I love this! I feel like she’s been in his show more than she’s been on others! I feel like he’s always bringing her back!
That wit. That timing. Those legs.
Aubrey is amazing love her
These two are a power duo!
She's so lovely n always fun to watch so naturally funny... Love from Sénégal 😍😉☺️
She feels so relatable.

Spicy is a great word for her! You never know what’s gonna come out of her mouth & I love her for it!
She is the queen of improvisation.
I have this sense of humour
Most people will never understand you're making a joke
Fun to see it in someone else lol
And yes, in case people don't realise: it's NOT awkwardness. It's entirely deliberate. Most people just don't realise.
Love everything about this human. And always brilliant in an interviews. Very few can keep up. Could watch all day, infact reg binge a bit a Audrey.
"The blood of Christ"😂...even the Lord laighed at that one.
Aubrey Plaza is so strange but she is insanely funny I love her as far as how she just says whatever she wants❤❤
"I'm pretty damn good at basket ball"
"I'm not that good at basket ball"
"I'm great at basket ball"
She is hilarious!
They can be in a movie together! Great Chemistry!
A truly strange person. LOL.
This lady is so wonderful with her approach to questions and her beauty is astounding. She's very funny.

She really is fascinating lmao he’s not wrong
For the newcomers in the Aubrey Plaza saga: this is a legendary interview in American broadcasting history.
She's the living proof that all the best people are crazy
Crazy like a fox
She's talking about Sharon Stone being one of her heroes while rocking a dress like hers in Basic Instinct
Ok she might joking but I thought I was the only one with a mail phobia lol
Anthrax is real and apparently now mail bombs so ur not alone
I was just thinking that. When Conan asked whys she scared of mail I was thinking ever heard of anthrax. It’s a pretty viable fear

I've gotten a couple of nasty paper cuts opening mail. Luckily I was able to recover.
Naw, we're out there. You're not alone.
One of my favorite interviews evaaaa
I love Aubrey's charismatic weirdness. ❤
On a cigarette break from watching "Parks and Recreation".

A seriously funny young lady! Conan had the right word to describe her, fascinating. 😂😂
she is very good, love her
8:53 Conan represents The public 😄
This was just awesome...2nd video that i have ever seen that has 10K+ views and no dislikes!
A year after, it has 12 dislike now
totalily flawless!!!!!!!!!my friend Aubrey Plaza!!
I absolutely love her
Finally someone with my sense of humor, I just moved to a new high school and I’m trying not to scare people off
I love her so much
Best assistant Ron Swanson ever had
She is amazingly hilarious without even trying hard🤣
They would make a great great couple.
such an attractive mind.. looks are just a bonus
I'm falling more in love with Aubrey every time I see her. So unaffected and natural!
Sharon Stone: dont do that with your hair or they’ll think you’re a lesbian!

Oh my god , isn't she just phenomenal 🙂
I would go to a talk show that Aubrey's appearing on just to see her. Holy cow. 😍😍😍
Aubrey is an amazing woman 😉❤🔥🔥🥰
😂 Conan and Aubrey are great.
"Will you come back"?
"Oh, no - no - nooo"!
😂
she's lovely but I think she is authentically insane
This girl is so smart I wish she could see this comment
She is in a word…BRILLIANT!!❤❤❤❤❤
She's adorable
I also have an anxiety from opening mail. True story.
Literally the *only* person I've seen answer the talk show host obligatory, "Will you come back" line with "No" 🤣
"Chimpanzee or Chimpanzee?"
"K-fork."
😂😂
She's a great actress
She’s so cute!
We all love Park and Recreation it's a hilarious spinoff
