Maya Rudolph Answers Personality Revealing Questions | Proust Questionnaire | Vanity Fair

[@Ladybird.21]

I love how quickly she responded “my nanny” & her comments about her. Amy Poehler did the same thing at an awards dinner when her kids were younger. Their careers would not have been the same without those women loving & caring for their children while they worked, and it’s so important to acknowledge how important that role is & those caretakers are.

[@smytea]

She doesn’t wanna be doing this, and I’m here for it

[@jillian5719]

Did she have to do this?

[@missdee4927]

So why did she do it?

[@aquimusicacalentana]

@@smytea If she didn't want to do this interview, she could've not agree to do it.

[@dianedegree3615]

"We live in a time when people wanna know what you smell like." She hit the nail on the head there.

[@charismalyn]

Good example - sensitive people often make great leaders because they are protective and caring of those they love. Too often uncaring and commandeering people rise to the top, and they often don't care about those under them. I think her personality answers reveal that

[@MarcosIsABaritone]

She's so much more melancholic than one would have thought.

Than you would have thought?

[@hhliebe4577]

this is the best interview I have ever seen and Maya is so amazing an honest

[@jamiemadison6643]

This is the realest I’ve ever seen her be and I love it❤️

[@BadHattie]

Her fear of sudden death (choking) is understandable but also really sad, given how young she was when she lost her mother.

[@XSAGA87]

Maya and her Mother Minnie Ripperton, both beautiful and fantastic voices if you heard her sing.

[@JMAK2024]

She mentioned her only once!

[@k_drive]

i love her point about the title "nanny", its been dragged for so long, dragging the ppl who do it and the ppl who hire them when it takes a lot.

[@pjmlegrande]

Also, she’s one of those actor/performers that always puts me in a mood of giddy anticipation. Love her style.

[@karmen1265]

VF: "What is your current state of mind?" Maya: "What is my current state of mine?? 🧐" If this isn't me every time someone asks what I'm thinking about, then I don't know what is

[@mpickering1000]

I love that she said her nanny was her heroe! I felt that

[@mdsoulsounds]

It’s great to see Myra succeed after she was very young to lose her mom, Minnie, one of my all time favorite singers. I am surprised she would subject herself to this kind of interview questionnaire which seems mostly geared towards people with big egos who try to cover up on camera . Vanity Fair tries to be like the old Playboys which used to have great interviews, an interviewers, and which was far more interesting and more real. Just sayin ´....

[@wasd3108]

1. What is your idea of perfect happiness? Answer: What is the other words for happiness? oh right. Contentment.

[@ffreshfields5211]

Her answer is a solid answer with thought behind it, seeing these two words mean different things. Contentment hints towards having found calm, a sense of peace, knowing how to be okay with reality or being able to find acceptance in multiple situations, which takes a lot of personal growth. Happiness can be a much bigger, explosive feeling that can happen to anyone no matter their age or amount of experiences, but at the same time is often more circumstancial or momental. Many people can be happy at times in their life, but few people find contentment, which is longer lasting.

[@EsotericArnold]

virtue you think is overrated: "independence" as we get older you understand more and more that people need each other.

[@ffreshfields5211]

That's because you have it. Many people's lives are in danger due to not having independence or freedom.

[@pamelaleannefreeland9025]

Between her body language and obvious disdain for the questioning, I have to wonder why she agreed to do this. She did know that the whole point was to answer questions, right? It just seems odd. I think Maya is extremely talented, but it's difficult to watch this honestly.
