   That is a hilarious interview with John and the cast and I can’t wait to see that movie. (And he does hold the microphone a little strangely… haha)

   And I second the congratulations about the shout out in Vanity Fair! How crazy and exciting.

   I literally burst out laughing at Steve in that Conan promo. That arrogant superstar persona he does never gets old.
   Speaking of superstars… way to go tanster!!

   The best part of the Conan clip was the ad preceding it was for I Love You, Man with Rashida.

   Congrats, tanster!

   Watching that interview with John made me fall a little more in love with him. Seriously. Didn’t think it was possible. Thought my infatuation with him was just over the line of crazy, but that interview just took it a bit further lol… He’s so ridicuously humble, and a great speaker. I hope BIWHM ends up coming out in a few theaters or on DVD or something, bc I desperately need to see it now haha

   I thought the Ricky Gervais video was fantastic and I would love to see an episode where David Brent is brought into the Scranton branch to be a mentor for Michael. Just thinking about it makes me laugh!

    LOL at Ricky Gervais!!

    Love the Ricky Gervais vid. The part where he goes to play with his tie ala David Brent although he isn’t wearing a tie is genius. I hope that some day he makes even the smallest cameo on the US show.

    Ok, now I *really* want to see Brief Interviews with Hideous Men! Is there any way to watch it (legally, of course ;) )?

    Wasn’t John Krasinski also named a fun and fearless male? Lol, now I guess it’s Rainn’s turn.

    LOVED Rainn’s interview with Oprah. It was long, but definitely worth it. Thanks for the link.

    Love Rainn and Oprah getting deep! Rainn continues to impress me with his depth, both as an actor and as a human. I’m even more proud than before to be his fan. Check out soulpancake!
