If Alex was a man would the interviewer still consider it such a risky, "explicit" script? The way he says "lesbian stuff" is a fucking travesty.
"...It wasn't a lesbian thing for me, it was a love story." THANK YOU, TAYLOR.
Aaa I love Taylor. She's always so genuinely open-minded and intelligent when interviewed. And she's always able to shoot down peoples' ignorance so gracefully.
Aaa She is!!? And here I was assuming Taylor was hetero all this time hahaha... Although she did always seem to know what she was doing when it came to performing the Alex/Piper love scenes...
Aaa where do you read that?
BrTutty YES. AMEN \o/
BrTutty totally agree! I didn't even stop
on the fact that they were lesbian, I fell in love with them and their relationship since the very beginning not even thinking about that. SO great Taylor shares that mentality
"I didn't think about that" because she doesn't see them as their sexuality she sees them as their character. God bless Taylor.
Yes!
True!
The interviewer is the real life Mr Healy
sarahjeanis "the lesbians" can be dangerous
Lesbian request denied!
Looks like caputo though!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂LMFAO
LITERALLY
taylor handled those questions so well. i mean, what a terrible interviewer. those questions focused on isolating minority groups, like what's the big deal in having a female director instead of a male? what's the big deal in lesbian sex? gees, talk about an irl mr healy.
I agree! This interviewer is an idiot.
Yeah, I agree too. Very first of his question was about "lesbianism" and nudity. Taylor was focusing to the story instead.
holy shit i was thinking the same thing! it was so damn irritating omg
Well it might be hard to kiss a person of the same sex and have fake sex if you aren't into it...
lmao no. If you're an actor or actress you have to be prepared for roles like that, the role isnt always going to be straight because lgbt+ people exist too lol. It doesnt matter whether youre 'into it' irl or not, if youre in a job like that youre gonna need open mindedness because you dont become an actor to play roles that match exactly who you are irl. If she wasnt okay with it she wouldnt have accepted the role...
Piper and Alex's scenes are my favorite.
same
Yes
Yes!!!
Yeah me 2
Me too, i love love watching them
I love the way she talks. So calm and graceful haha
Rebecca Blake omg yes
she is soooo soft spoken
holy f..she is the prettiest actress I've ever seen honestly..
Henrik Michael really? what about that huge forehead?
Marría Catchy Wow, gotta love women who tear down other women by reducing them to a single physical attribute. Hopefully you'll overcome your own insecurities some day and become a more generous spirit.
Naaa... I was just kidding... I'm the most imperfect person physically speaking. Don't take it too harsh, sorry.
Marría Catchy Ok, thanks for clarifying. There's just so much negative dissecting of women's physical appearances on the interwebs--and much of it sadly by fellow women.
I agree, I'm sorry
The interviewer is really stupid but Taylor handled herself well. It was so annoying when the interviewer kept bringing up the "lesbian thing" just to get gossip, but Taylor was extremely articulate and intellectual and actually went deeper into the storylines and avoided silly generalizations. She's really awesome and I can't wait for Season 2 :).
Taylor... I just want to say you have the MOST PRETTIEST EYES.
+BITCHIM CLASSY laura is pretty to
Yes she is so fucking hot and so is Laura and wish they'd actually get together ahh
ally mark why do you think they have sex and make out and they are not in love
veyda Phillips they’re not dating. Laura is married to a man and has a kid
...and mouth.
Not only lesbians are going crazy over Alex lol, They're a bunch straight girls like me that are personally in love and attracted to her. Idk maybe it's just me but Alex's character is sorta my kind, like the mysterious, sarcastic, tough on the outside but soft on the inside kind of girl. love her
I feel ya girl ;) alex is just perfectó
Exactly the same. She's so perfect.
I'm not attracted to Alex because I see too much of her in me but I am in love with Natasha Lyonne
SAME
Sounds like you’re not straight then. Lmao
I love how even when he say stupid questions she still gives intelligent answers
I'm surprised by how desired Alex's character is. I personally prefer Piper, she's very articulate in her words, intelligent, and vulnerable and not to mention gorgeous. Love her character and Taylor Schilling who plays her.
Yes! Me too
Nico .//. and the faces she makes! so funny omg :')
Same she is so beautiful, I can’t. .
Yes I love piper, taylor
So poor the way this dude interviewed Taylor, so sexist and oblique !!! Bravo for Taylor she is great and her answers were very respectful and clever.
Did a lesbian break this guy's heart or something? Cause that's all he seems to want to talk about and not just in this interview.
Healy influenced
Definitely Healified
This guy is so anoying...... He keeps covering his prejudice with questions... Taylor, you go girl! Awesome answers!
I'm surprised Taylor didn't punch the interviewer in the face everytime he said something about lesbians
or about man vs woman-- as director, as love interest. smh.
Taylor schilling being a lesbian in real life is the biggest plot twist lol.
Horrendous interview technique, incredibly stupid things said '....you know....The lesbian stuff...' Utterly idiotic interview but good, intelligent answers from Schilling.
Turned off at that first line
"is it different being directed by a woman than a man?"
wtf is this interviewer talking about lol
geez no need to be hostile lol. and I don't know what I would've asked her but I know what I wouldn't have asked her, which was more than half of his questions. I just didn't get much out of this interview and it was because I didn't find most of his questions necessary or relevant. just my opinion
Donna Brooks there's also nothing wrong with me having an opinion. -.- i'm sorry if i offended you.........
Donna Brooks Actually after rewatching the interview let me explain myself. When i said "wtf is this interviewer talking about" I was moreso referring to how he asked that particular question after he kept emphasizing on the homosexuality in the show as if that's something sooo "out of this world" for an actor to take on as part of a script, and I feel like he just kept bringing up that subject and trying to get more out of her when she had already said it's not that it's a LESBIAN scene, it's that it's a love scene. it's not that they're LESBIAN and TRANS characters, it's that they're INDIVIDUAL characters all with their own stories that really tear them apart from that generalization. So after he kept focusing on that aspect, asking if it was different to be directed by a woman than a man just made me think "come on now, enough with the gender stuff" which actually might sound offensive but I thought that because if you're going to focus on the LGBT aspect of the show, I believe you shouldn't narrow it down in a way that makes it seem like it's odd or overwhelming to work with the fact that characters in the show are lesbian/trans/bi/etc. But you know what, you're right, that IS an interesting question. It was the the context he put it in (at least from how I interpreted it) that made me roll my eyes and wonder if he was even really sure what he was talking about or if he was just trying to get fluff out of this interview or the majority of the interview. i still think most of the questions he asked were unnecessary but you're right, that particular question wasn't. However, had he approached it differently I wouldn't have thought it unnecessary or irrelevant.
still, all just my opinion.
love her answers hate his questions
Taylor showed off in this interview. The reporter made stupid comments and questions. And she answered calmly and correctly. Taylor is very pretty and very smart. Good for her. Congratulations.
I love the way she talks & the wax she doesn't fall into stereotypes. She really is very envolved & accorded to the message of the show & I love that
incredibly well said - the interviewer kept trying to generalize the characters as simply the trans, or the lesbian, but Taylor pointed out that they were much more than that, and this realness of the characters is what makes OITNB so special.
She's so well-spoken
Taylor remained so poised throughout this interview. Instead of remarking on the less than stellar questions, she chose to respond intelligently. Her responses were so on point.
love her responses in this interview! also, wonder if the interviewer hit himself when he heard that Taylor is in a relationship with a woman... she was so smooth with her answers to his macho questions! cool chick ;)
"lesbianism"
....
oh my. She's so gorgeous
Just discovered the show and watched every episode. They can say a lot about the show and it's true, but one thing is SHE IS GORGEOUS!
OMG Alex & piper are beautiful... wish you were really both together lol BEST SERIES EVER !!!!!
She is too cute.
i can hear the Piper Chapman tone in her voice.
agh she's so gorgeous
this is the coolest interview ever,
she was just so considerate and lovely, I have so much admiration for the way she responded to the unnecessary stuff.
She is such a beauty! Love the show!
I watched all 13 episodes in one day.... It was so good, I'm sad I watched it so fast ..
Goodness, at least remember the last name of the 2nd most popular actress on the show!
Well... to be honest actually Alex is more popular than piper
love how open she was about the gay stuff.
I literally watched the entire season with my brother in a day. We stayed up from like 7 at night to 7 in the morning the next day watching it, it was so good!
wtf he frgot Laura's surname???
This guy sucks
She's so articulate and explains everything so freely and well! Love her!
the interviewer look like caputo
triiiib yes!!!! 🙌🏻
Hahaha
i actually thought it was him at first but then i looked closer and listened to his voice and was like *oh not caputo*
gawd shes so gorgeous with her smile and her laugh and just everything about her
she's so pretty
she look juss like katy perry
Katy is hotter.
Lets just settle that both are hot. And only one of them will really kiss a girl. And like it...
yeah both of them are hot in a different way! :)
omg I thought I was the only one to think that!
in the future, please don't say "juss" it really lowers your ability to comprehend stuff if you type exactly as you speak.
that interviewer is narrow it seems, i love the way taylor schilling responded
I went from Breaking Bad, to The Walking Dead, to Orange is the New Black... must find another great series on Netflix!
lost!!
Marissa Walrath Thanks! I'm going to check it out soon :)
Orphan Black
ok i know this was a month ago but holy crap. i went from breaking bad to the walking dead to orange is the new black too. like in exactly that order
yall need to check out oprhan black
I'm hooked on this show. They all did such an amazing job on it.
Interviewer = Mr. Healy. Do you hear your questions. You can't even finish your sentences/questions. Not a pro. Embarrassing. Smh
You beat me to the punch. I was going to say that about Mr. Healy. haha
agreed. he cant get enough of man vs woman questions-- set aside the lesbian questions. geez! it is like 70s in him, questions and clothes.
glad that taylor answered these silly questions well.
She has an angels face. Love the show.
she slayed that interview with such elegance and looked bloody gorgeous
Such a stunning, gentle-speaking woman…wonderful actor…makes the character real, vulnerable, arrogant, and adorably likable….hope to see her on future tv series, she’s a natural in front of the camera…
This interviewer is such a mysogynist
If amy pohler and Katy perry had a baby...
I can't unsee it
Ikr
Great interview, she's obviously really passionate about the show and the characters stories which is brilliant and means she understands why the audience love it so much. Not sure I like the interviewer much though, it seems like he is trying to get Taylor to say she was worried about being a lesbian blah blah. But she threw it right back at him when she said 'I didn't see it as a lesbian thing, it's just a beautiful love story'. Go girl!
He is an awful unprofessional interviewer.
I love watching and listening to Taylor talk
wow. looks like I have a new crush. hahaha. Taylor you are an amazing actress, and the way you handled those questions - all very real and sincere responses of your thoughts. And gorgeous obvs! Love you!
OMG Taylor did an amazing job in this interview!
Not really sure why everyone is hating on the interviewer. Homosexuality is still a controversial issue today, so he's asking legitimate questions about her take on things. I don't see what's wrong with asking how she felt being in a show that brings out lesbianism. You don't know if it was something new to her or not, or if she developed a new perspective. So of course, I'd be curious too. Don't turn it into something else when it isn't. Besides that, she is GORGEOUS!!!
she's so unbelievably cute
- she looks exactly like Katy perry
She kissed a girl and she liked it ;)
i dont know why but i find Taylor sexier than Katy Perry!!!
Great interview. Taylor is fantastic, great answers.
Also loved her expert evasion of the Laura question - there's no doubt whatever's going on with Alex is plot based and they're not allowed to spoil it.
Great interview - I love how she steered the somewhat tactless interview questions to a place of intelligence and depth! Also - I'd say Taylor looks like a mix of Katy Perry and Uma Thurman!
Taylor is such a sweetheart ❤️🙂
I hate it when actresses say that they treat the lesbian relationship like any other relationship... No it is not like any other relationships because its so much hotter!!!!!!! Haha
The way he asked questions was very rude
Love her! She seems like a really nice person ;)
Omg Taylor very good answers, you got it! ❤😍
I love this show. Can't wait for Season 2!
She's so hot wooooow
shes so stunning
does the reporter work sweeping chimneys between interviews?
Ahh she is a great in real life! A she's such a smart woman and great speaker.
looking forward for season 2.
just me or everyone see Taylor looks like Katy Perry? i mean ... a lot! :v
This interviewer has such a shallow immature view on this show how Taylor can even respond so articulately is amazing
she is so pretty! and i couldnt stop staring at her eye makeup!
Her and Alex were perfect I wish it was real. If I was piper I would go with Alex she's hot so r u piper
She's so beautiful. I mean, inside and out she's gorgeous.
She looks NOTHING like Katy Perry! Taylor is so down to earth and smart to listen to, I completely adore her.
I never saw it either
shes beautiful!
me encantan las escenas de taylor y laura uuuyyy son tan candentes que quiero mas de ellas
Perfect speech Taylor. Love u 💟
She looks like Katy perry
True
YAAS BITCH YAAAS
I truly wish they didn't wait so long to make the second series
Ok, that very first question, dear Mr . reporter, was stupid - supid - stupid.
Why "omg, a movie about lesbians"? What's so "omg" about?
Ah, for eff sake is 2014 already, get over it!
They confirmed that laura is going to be on season 2 on hollywood access :p
Its shocking how so many interviews only focus on the "Lesbian" relationships and the nudity on the show. 😒
Taylor is beautiful in every way. She’s an amazing woman.
I thought the whole way she talked & acted in the show was just a persona she made for her character but she really seems exactly the same in real life
I am not the type to crush on a white girl (just not my type) BUUUUTTTTTT TAYLOR is an exception ! HOT! Lawd
"Have you seen her on set??"
Hahahah....nice one buddy!
LOVE TAYLOR , SHE IS REALY ACTRESS.
she is so cool go Taylor! :)
Hey DailyXtra just a question about "all the lesbian stuff"…lets say that the show took place in a christian church and it was talking about the relationship of the straight couples that go to church…would you ask her about all "that straight stuff"…she is an actress, she can't be disgusted by lesbian scenes like you are, if she is professional and if the character is rich she will do it regardless..but she gave you a great answer she also doesn't see as "lesbian stuff" but a love story.
What!!!? She's pretty, smart, honest and a good actress? I can't believe what I'm seeing, honestly...
She is absolutely gorgeous 😍
SLAMMED IT WITH THE GENDER ROLES BAE
