Andy Samberg is God


About time for an andPOP blog update.

Last week, I saw a screening of Hot Rod the night before I interviewed its star, Saturday Night Live's Andy Samberg. I am not supposed to review the film until opening day, so all I will say is I love Andy Samberg.

Actually, at the screening, Samberg showed up to do a Q&A afterwards.

There was an old lady in the audience, probably about 80 years old, there by herself, out of place since most of the crowd was late teens, early 20s.

So picture this - she's sitting a row in front of me, next to her is Leah from MuchMusic who was there to moderate the Q&A and next to her is Leah's boyfriend Dallas from Alexisonfire.

After the film, Andy's about 20 minutes late since he missed a flight. He arrives, Leah begins asking him questions, and about four questions in, this old lady with what I think is an Italian accent turns to Dallas and says, in a very loud voice, "This is the man who was in the film?"

Dallas said "yes" and anyone in the few rows surrounding them who could clearly hear this conversation are laughing in histerics, mostly because of how loud she asked the question.

She turns to Dallas again and says, "him? He was the man in the movie?" Dallas said yes again.

Two seconds later, she stood up and left.

Awesome.

Next day, spoke with Samberg, great interview, coming up soon on andPOP.

And lots of actor interviews coming up. Keep checking the blog.
