    She is representing our community with heart, joy, laughter and love and I so appreciate all that she is doing for the next generation of young AA's and representation in all forms of art and media. Everyone I know is a HUGE fan and will support anything she does! "The Farewell" was amazing and can't wait for her next projects.

    Maria Shriver is a poor interviewer. It felt more like an interrogation and her imposing some assumptions on Awkwafina which she had to answer to. Was this a sociological interview?

      She stole every scene she was in! Just like Ken Jeong.

    This interviewer has got to be the worst I’ve seen so far. It feels more like an interrogation more than an interview 😬 kudos to Awkwafina for being so intellectual and professional with her responses.

    Maria is reeking of her white privileged upbringing in her tone of questioning. She seems to know and empathize very little with what’s outside her bubble.

      Don't forget her background. Part of the Kennedy clan and married Arnold Swartzengger.

    MS is such a poor interviewer. She should have been better prepared especially knowing what its like to break though from another culture...which Arnie had to do. Thank god Awkwafina has the intellect to expand and really carry her own in this interview.

    This interview is painful to watch in 2021 LOL ... there's a whole generational/era gap between 2018 and the interviewers questions. It's extremely odd how these dated questions are still being asked like what if we asked these types of questions while interviewing Irish/British/European decent actors. Technically all Americans are descendants from people who were not born here. She is literally taking two steps backwards into 1960 by asking how Awkwafina feels about not being categorized as an "Asian" artist/comedian/actor and if its contradictory of the fact that she represents the Asian community. She should've just made a statement on how amazing representation in the media has diversified over time and that POC are no longer categorized by their skin color. It's not direct out right loud racisim/classism, but the quiet tinge of it for me like a back handed compliment. So CRINGEY. As awkward as Awkwafina claims to be, she handled herself very poised and elegant in her answers.

    Maria Schriver is a horrible interviewer, and typical Kennedy spinnoff family member. Love Awkwafina!

  • @jfwootten

    Maria Schriver could star in "Crazy Rich Irish Catholics" as part of the Kennedy Crime Family. But, that film would flop.

      Um, not all of us are!!! Crazy Rich and entitled Americans! More like comfortable and middle class Canadian.
      From the same county, in fact. Wexford. But I think my ancestor made the right choice coming to Sheet Harbor.

    There were years she made 10k a year? Seriously? Sounds pretty unbelievable, but I guess most actors or media entertainment is poor until they r famous.

    I thought she doesn’t do interview anymore Maria asks similar questions in various way. Maria is not friendly at all throughout this interview. Must be hard for Awkwafina.

    So sad that she lost her mom @ such a young age & to have the burden of wanting people around her to laugh. That's deep.
