Aubrey Plaza's Saturday Night Live audition was too strange to get her cast
. “I remember one character I did was like kind of like a Puerto Rican news reporter that was always trying to make all of the news stories sexy, even if they were horrific news stories. And I was just trying to like, sex up the news or something.”She continues, “The other one was, I was like a pill-popping housewife that had my own talk show called Celebri-Tails, where I would just name celebrities and name what kind of tail they would have if they had a tail.
’ Or, like, ‘Oprah Winfrey would have a dragon’s…’ it’s just stuff like that. Anyway, I didn’t get on the show, so.”Without having been at that fateful showcase in which Plaza didn’t get through to the next round, we can’t possibly know if the issue lay with her performance or with the characters themselves.
