Ayo Edebiri has reached the Finding Out phase of her career
In a new interview, Edebiri revisited her "feud" with Jennifer Lopez and said she was "chilling" with apps like Letterboxd for a while
Ayo Edebiri has moved on from the fucking around on the internet phase of her career. We all knew it was coming—as a certified Famous Person, you can’t get away with claiming you were the dialect coach on The Departed, but only for the word “microprocessors” forever—but it’s still a sad day for posters everywhere. Tina Fey’s evergreen advice (partly inspired by Ms. Edebiri herself) strikes again: “Authenticity is dangerous and expensive. I don’t think so, honey!”
The Bear and Bottoms star addressed a couple of her infamous exploits on the World Wide Web in a new interview with Vanity Fair this week, starting, of course, with that “feud” with Jennifer Lopez from earlier this year. In Edebiri’s view, however, it wasn’t really a feud at all—the scales were too imbalanced. “That would be like Mr. Bean and Mick Jagger beefing,” she said, “and I’m obviously Mr. Bean. She’s J.Lo!”
