Cringe! OITNB interview is SO awkward

While most press junket interviews tend to follow the same kind of format, every now and then you see one that makes you just want crawl into a hole and hide.

Think Tom Hardy’s recent Mad Max interview when he was asked if he wondered why there weren’t more men in the film, or the AWFUL interview with Quentin Tarantino and Channel 4 presenter, Krishnan Guru-Murthy.

And now we have the interview with the cast of Orange is the New Black and Brazilian journalist and comedian, Rafael Cortez to add to the list.

The interviewer went and asked some extremely condescending and inappropriate questions. As Natasha Lyonne so succinctly summarised – “I feel like it’s accidentally maybe a little bit misogynistic because it’s like ‘You’re so beautiful, what’s it like having to do all that acting?’”

The tone of the interview is almost so outrageous and inappropriate and Mr Cortez is in fact a comedian, we do have to wonder, was he joking all along?

What do you think?
