"You're a little older than I am so relax" Sarah Paulson is a queen!!!!

[@candaceburkes8895]

I bet those picture things in the background are making Sarah a wreck.

[@MrRandomTuber]

Sarah is basically THE TV actress of the moment.

[@Elaine8492]

[@ddacoe0]

...she did!

[@Sara-hv2cy]

I knoooww ;((

[@milescumminski8077]

Or an Oscar because she is awesome in every movie she is in.

[@cliffwheeler7357]

Sara needs to brush up on her grammar and expand her vocabulary. Then she wouldn’t need to use obscene language to make a point.

[@MAXKIDDO8888]

Sarah Paulson just amazes me on AHS she just needs a really good movie role and I think she could take the oscars by storm

[@Marco.91]

she has been in a really good movie I can't recall the name but it's about slavery

[@fabienkouabran6481]

+Evil Butterfly 12 Years A Slave

[@margaritam.9118]

Have you seen her on "American Crime Story"? She is superb!

[@MAXKIDDO8888]

+Greta M. Yes and If she doesn't win the Emmy for that role I will lose my shit

[@-t96]

sarah is the most talented actress on tv right now. with viola davis right behind her...such talent, great talk.

[@AngelusHale]

So true. I would LOVE to see Sarah Paulson and Viola Davis do a project together.

[@cinthiatambunan]

amen

[@skylewylde4506]

don't forget Tatiana Maslany, she's very underrated in OB

[@007BlackCanary]

Sarah Paulson with Viola Davis together OMG I wouldn't even be able to deal with that level of delight!

[@tiagomota4734]

i disagree completly! dont say it like its true add IMO at the end

[@steffiacain2571]

As soon as I saw promo pictures for this a couple months back...I've literally been waiting to watch this. Ahhhhh, Sarah Paulson NEEDS TO WIN THE EMMY THIS YEAR.

[@callummurphy7170]

lovely to see such relaxed body language, you can tell that they are friends

[@suziewoo1000]

I've been a big fan of Sarah for a long time. So pleased she's getting the recognition she deserves! Amazing x

[@mafaldargouveia]

Sarah needs to win a emmy, like NOW! What a talent! :)

[@missknisely]

Yeah, give her her damned emmy before she gets lung cancer.

[@mafaldargouveia]

[@mafaldargouveia]

[@ddacoe0]

Well, she did

[@zrzebra02]

[@delusionsofgrandeur1330]

Sarah Paulson is an international treasure

[@Neronladd]

sarah deserves an award

[@Elaine8492]

"My parents were listening to that kind of music" LOL!!! Perfect, she's so quick & funny!

[@bsnarfgut2347]

I'm here for Sarah! Wonderful actress, sweet person.

[@MasterAppels]

She's really brilliant, completely different to what I imagined her.

[@rosieboblast]

how did you imagine her?

[@MasterAppels]

rosieboblast As someone who takes themselves too serious.

[@rosieboblast]

You should watch more of her interviews she's so cute and hilarious. definitely doesnt take herself too serious

[@B5s4]

Brilliant? Thats a very strong word

[@jazzyv6131]

I guess I'm late because I just recently became obsessed with her.lol

[@apocalypto-v7f]

i could listen to this woman talk all day

[@SkyGreyHawk]

Just when I thought I couldn't love Sarah Paulson any more. She's gorgeous and she has such a great personality. She's just all around amazing.

[@AngelusHale]

I love Sarah Paulson so much: talented woman and incredibly funny.

[@just4funlive4eva]

Sarah is such an incredible actor

[@lucyberger7625]

I have a talent. I see an artist and also see the success they will achieve one day. I saw it very early in Julianne Moore in the early 90's and I saw it in Sarah Paulson in the first season of AHS. Trust me, she will bare the status of Meryl and Sigourney one day.

[@payungtechno]

your comment is gold!! i feel the same!! she will take the throne somedayyyy!!!!

[@Cupidssatan]

I'm head over heels in love with Sarah😍❤️

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Sarah carried Down With Love.

[@Trapper50cal]

These are so addictive....and so many pairings popping up are so intriguing due to the actor's respective resumés and history.

[@masteringpain5199]

LOVE Sarah Paulson!!!!

[@Carriergirl0902]

I love Sarah!!!

[@iverson32491]

Its too bad Vinyl got cancelled feel bad for Bobby. He sounded so motivated for this role.

[@raineyj560]

Omar Khan I was so looking forward to Season 2

[@samanthanickson6478]

i have been a fan of her acting since american gothic. it was only around for 1.5 seasons. if you have never seen the show, check it out.

[@miniho9907]

Someones at the door

[@GeneralAvocado]

best episode by far, they have great chemistry

[@pman8478]

This is the second tiptoes mention in an actors on actors interview and it makes me so happy every time

[@taishisingleton7927]

Sarah deserves an Emmy

[@chinadollz123]

I love Bobby, i'm so annoyed that vinyl got cancelled. hopefully it can get picked up by Netflix or something. Sarah is also my favourite actress.

[@josecal6198]

09:22 "Bobby: you were GOOD. Sarah: I am dedicated" Life mantra updated successfully.

[@deltarose716]

This is beyond great

[@tillyboos]

Sarah deserved at LEAST a nomination for 12 Years A Slave. She's riveting to watch.

[@rueben44]

Very good interview/exchange I really enjoyed this one.

[@EnviroArtiste86]

i really loved Studio 60 on the sunset strip. that ended way too soon.

[@tamiresalmeida9218]

sarah's amazing!!!

[@kylejnicholson]

I loved Third Watch!!!! He was really good in that!

[@jmnny85]

Sara P is so talented and elegant/classy.

[@lilbirdztube3698]

Bobby Canavale has done wonderful work at Manhattan Theater Club. I wish Studio 60 would have had at least another season. What a great cast!

[@ChristinaGina]

My favourite female and male in tv atm....

[@katies861]

Sarah Paulson as Lana Winters. So good!

[@Historian212]

Loved him in "The Station Agent."

[@margaretbest2453]

So interesting to learn so much about Bobby when I first saw him as a pretty face in Bone Collector and Third Watch be little did I know

[@cliffwheeler7357]

The first time I noticed Bobby Cannavale was in Blue Jasmine with Cate Blanchete and Carol Hawkins. He was very impressive.

[@Roman888]

Vinyl's been officially cancelled. Awkward.

[@squall6789]

Yeah I wasn't sure when this was filmed. So ironic that he's saying he's finally comfortable, has a new baby and is set for season 2.

[@micksplace]

Hearing him talk with such passion for what was his first BIG lead makes me sad. BUT Vinyl was such crap all around

[@nenabunena]

vinyl wasn't crap and had a lot of potential to improve on season 2 but the writing was all over for season 1 unfortunately

[@najmussaqib7542]

Tooty Futts well he rocked in the 3rd season of Mr Robot

[@CMC_Productions]

this was great.

[@pallavmishra]

Giuseppe “Gyp” Rosetti was the vilest antagonist in Boardwalk Empire, and Bobby nailed it. He rightfully deserved the Emmy he won for it.

[@JohnnyYCWang]

I saw Pretty/Handsome. It was wonderfully portrayed with Joseph Fiennes and Jonathan Groff!!

[@josephdee1867]

Bobby, it's me, Joey Dee, we went to acting school for a year together at Strasberg in NY. Caught your Woody Allen movie this weekend: you tore the cover off the ball, AGAIN. Congratulations!!! Also had the pleasure of watchin you in VINYL; Brilliant!!!! and Hilarious!!!!! I've tried to reach you a few times, so you're either over it or never saw my emails. We had a nice connection back in 92; met your Dad at his restaurant, you were nice enough to come to 1 of my off/off Broadway plays, and we always had a BLAST in class. I haven't had even a tiny bit close to the amount of success in show biz you've had (WELL DESERVED), but I'm still out here in LA, going after it. A half hour film that I made on my own last year is here on KZbin, it's called SECURITY GUARD (Street Light Films). Would love it if you checked it out. God Bless You Bobby! P.S. Street Light is 2 words. If you feel like reconnecting I'm on Facebook, Joseph Dee Venice (I haven't gotten to act in a lot of paid roles but I do have four polished feature length screenplays that I wrote in my repertoire). MISS PAULSON- would/could you pretty please tell Bobby about this note if you happen to see it before him. Thank You/Bless You!!

[@chickensdontclap147]

OMG I just watched the trailer for Tiptoes

[@millietrusttum3125]

sarah is just amazing. she's an incredible actress. lol i wonder if she noticed the holes in the frames on the wall. she's trypophobic, like myself, and those holes are just yuck haha.

[@bliss66]

Famous last words: "...and I know I'm coming back for Season 2 of Vinyl." Ouch. Acting is a brutal career.

[@jcel4378]

If you thought playing a conjoin twin opposite yourself is difficult, can you imagine Tatiana Maslany in Orphan Black, playing opposite herself with 7+ characters?

[@briannaciancio1160]

Can you not?

[@MaryRose86]

Sara is 1000x a better actress

[@kylejnicholson]

TOTALLY!

[@lynluu]

There is also a ten year difference between them, so Sarah Paulson has that much more experience than Maslany. I think they're both great respectively and will go on to do great work. Plus, Maslany is from my home town, so I am just a tiny bit biased.

[@TheMovieMyLife]

I wouldn't describe it as 'the bargain basement of Macy's perfume throw outs'. Magie Noire isn't loved by many but it isn't low quality. It's just loved mostly by a specific demographic who adore strong and somewhat overpowering earthy fragrances with a hints of incense.

[@nandaneves2288]

ok so all I could think about was sarah freaking out because of the art work with the clustered holes lmao I hope she was okay

[@jas1533]

first second and I'm already in love with her

[@vanessabenonis8266]

oof i bet the weird paintings on the walls are triggering sarah’s tripophobia

[@dxmxo9427]

He's so Handsome lol

[@kateholloway9866]

I agree

[@moodyjenny86]

He's next level sexy. I can't handle. He's so very talented. He's done everything from Will & Grace to The Irishman to Jumanji, OZ...theater. He's so versatile ! Came to ask where the Bobby Cannavale love is in these comments ?!

[@apseudonym]

he's gorgeous. he was great in nurse jackie

[@rogerbarrett1979]

Bobby and Sarah were on the short-lived TV show Cupid. But years before that he was on HBO's Oz as an inmate named Alonso Torquemada. I don't believe he was on there long though.

[@sanyi1020]

This guy was amazing in Vynil. Greatjob Bobby!

[@themisanthropechannel1449]

Bobby will always be the guy with funky spunk from "Sex In The City"

[@nenabunena]

the first time i noticed him was from boardwalk empire as the scary crazy charismatic gyp rosetti

[@CallingDoctorUnk]

Or the food truck guy from 'The Station Agent'; that's where I first saw him.

[@alterbria]

and the one who got away to Will Truman on Will & Grace xD

[@indiansbaseball4438]

And Guy Danlily in Annie 2014....

Sarah is the bomb and Bobby should be wearing high heels. He is such a girl after WILL AND GRACE!

[@Dillonsimpsonfan]

Anyone else reminded of Vin Diesel?

[@margaretbest2453]

Bobby is an entire meal

[@Isaacfeearrow]

I'm pretty sure that guy is with Rose Byrne

He is. They just had a baby too.

[@QuestionKnife]

“She calls me ‘Bobbytin’.” LMAO so fucking Cuban... sad how no one commented on that here and so typical how she said “what?🤔” afterwards and he brushed it off because that kind of shit always happens when you have Hispanic roots hahahaha

[@YouTubeTopComment]

*Sarah is a trigger for good mood*

[@kylejnicholson]

To the answers the question of, can men and women be friends... Yes. You can tell they are actually buddies.

[@lucyhannah1227]

it helps that they're both dating women lol

True sometimes those are the best friendship
