MY VLOG SERIES - A SNEAK PEAK INTO HOLLYWOOD AND BEHIND THE SCENES:
I also have a VLOG series where I take you behind the scenes from when I meet with Hollywood stars at different interview locations and give you a little sneak peak of what it's like to interview some of Hollywoods biggest stars. In my VLOGS I also take you to premieres, Hollywood parties, premiere after-parties, red carpets, The Oscars, The Golden Globes - and travels to film festivals, like Toronto, Cannes and Venice, comic-con in San Diego, as well as the typical film junket. I share some of my favorite interview tricks, some amazing, funny moments, but also some of my bloopers and less proud or awkward moments. So please come along for the ride behind the scenes in Hollywood, and don’t hesitate to ask questions or leave comments in the description section. I will get back to you as soon as I can.

[@NESherv]

I fucking love this guy, his point of view, and his brutal honesty and lack of fear to admit it to the world and Hollywood.

[@GiuValverde]

It certainly feels good to have an adult, intelligent woman interviewing Hollywood people. It's a relief for us spectators and I'm sure it's a relief for actors as well. This was an instant, easy subscription.

[@Flaawsometalk]

+Giuliano Valverde So happy you like it. And thank you so much for this comment!

[@michalisdimitriou3458]

yeah actors that have the humanitarian cultured moral of just being yourself and saying it how it is ,keeping it real!!,much respect x

[@boardnbritt]

YES! Very well said. I can't stand late night hosts like Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert who cut them short and laugh at everything the guest star says, so obnoxious!

[@dmtree__]

Very honest and true from Zach, props to him for that.

[@TigerMeadows]

Yea he's not an airhead.

[@johnnyptree1]

I agree with the comments, and will simply add that Kjersti seems to be cool enough to realize that the actors she interviews are ultimately just normal people who show excellence in their work---nothing more, nothing less. I get the feeling she would interview a plumber, carpenter, musician or painter with the same respect and thoughtful insight. We need more of this! Respect.

[@Flaawsometalk]

+John Paul Dove What a great compliment. Thank you so much, John Paul. Ill continue trying to keep it as real as possible. Hope to see you around.

[@Brittaly]

Agree and her kindness and genuine ability to forge a nice easy rapport with the people she interviews is refreshing to see as even some journalists and reporters can be egotistical and disingenuous but not her.

[@jennicase]

I lived in Hollywood for a short time and it's true, everyone there lives like they are in a magazine, it's surreal.

[@koolkat8639]

Cool to see zach being himself in this interview.

[@kateran121]

Zach Galifianakis really surprised me and shocked me. I'm really glad to know that he's so much more intelligent then the characters he plays. I've loved every role he's played and to see that he's intellectually insightful is fantastic. Great interview.

[@DavisSchulz]

you make the best interviews, great stuff!!

[@Flaawsometalk]

***** Thank you so much!

[@ericwaldron5267]

Davis Schulz x9ltraa

[@babushkalol]

Davis Schulz nice dich hier zu sehen :D

[@misterchristopher8857]

Zak's comments are clear, mindful observations about the illusory atmosphere in the entertainment industry. I appreciate someone in that industry calling things as they are; superficial, self-conscious and make believe.

[@Cuddison1]

this is weird, zach is actually being serious in an interview

[@deanpapadopoulos3314]

He’s real…which means he’s going to get booted out of the club as soon as they’re done having him make money for them. It’s refreshing. He’s basically saying, ‘ went to work today and acted like someone else. There’s no story there. The real story is to be your self. And, that’s not a story…that’s called a life.

[@68thelzeppelin]

He is a comedy genius to me, a modern chaplin if you will, I just realized how smart he is. glad that I saw it!

[@estebanrivera7068]

this guy is smarter than I thought

[@dadafish1]

Maybe you know only simpletons.

[@boardnbritt]

He's always funny even when he's not trying. That's what makes a brilliant comedian. When he said he is boring in real life I cracked up. He's genuinely hilarious.

[@Brittaly]

Thanks for sharing this genuine, thoughtful and honest interview. A nice natural rapport between two down to earth successful people. Kudos to him for not being afraid to expose the Hollywood machine for what it really is & not just assuming he’s above everyone else. 👏🏼

[@MaxSleigh]

Awesome interview. Great to see this side of Zach as well, couldn't agree more on the problems he pointed out about ppl looking for fame at any cost. Smart guy and great interviewer

[@ChrisPearson1337]

Very interesting. Very candid, honest. Glad to have found this!

[@Graenolf]

Ms. Flaa, your channel is a delight. Thank you for your content.

[@Flaawsometalk]

+Guyon Thank YOU for watching :-)

[@Vortex]

I'd like to meet him one day. Came across this interview randomly and I agree about Hollywood and peoples perceptions.

[@katherineseymour6239]

We have definitely lost interviews like this, honest. I should watch Birdman again.

[@skatersirian]

You have to admit that even Zach enjoyed that interview.

[@JaniceDiaries]

What a great interview ! Great questions. I could tell he too found it refreshing rather than the usual Q/A

[@Flaawsometalk]

+Janice Naturalé Thank you.

[@alistairclark6814]

I used to want to be an actor. Meeting people in the industry changed my mind.

[@joee1213]

Ray liotta said it best. “I play pretend.” And nobody, NOBODY, could instill seriousness, severity, and rage the way Ray Liotta could just by giving a look. Not even saying a word. Edit: dude Zach is down to earth. He’s so right. It’s not good for anyone. Social media is absolutely horrible for people.

[@theroyalsun9296]

"The internet is the wild west who knows whats gunna happen" -zg

[@darrenmurphy1833]

Finally, a real interviewer & a real actor being, actually both honest & very real. Completely & fully interesting. Thank you.

[@ciniminisman]

This was great, as is your whole channel. Stumbled upon it a couple of days back and have watched almost everything, it's practically a gold mine for getting to actually know these stars. Great questions! It's a shame barely anyone is watching this whereas millions of people are all over the scripted and mostly superficial gags of fallon etc.

[@Flaawsometalk]

ciniminisman Wow, thank you so much! I spend a lot of time preparing for these interviews to make them a bit more interesting than the usual "junket"-interviews. Its pretty challenging to get anything special in less than five minutes, but sometimes it works - like with Zach, who is such a cool and honest guy. Thank you of watching. You made my day with this comment :-)

[@foxglovethealchemist4350]

Zach went to school with my husband and I knew his father Harry, very well. I am very pleased to bear his opinions of Hollyweird, so happy He's still a Wilkes boy at heart. His daddy was the sweetest, most honestly himself kinda guy you could meet. And he always tipped me well when he came to where I used to work, he delivered my mother in laws meds. He was a delivery guy, gave him something to do. I just want for whoever reads this comment to know Zach`s father was an amazing man!!!! I will truly miss his big hugs and his cute face, he was a cutie too. I hope and pray that Zach doesn't get pulled into the wrong people's grips, the illuminati or whatever else names they assume. I don't know Zach, personally, but I loved the he'll outta his dad!!!!! RIP Harry Galafanakis

[@TheBhutros]

Presently you only have 6,839 subscribers. This is a shame. It's good to see intelligent questions, and allowance for the actors to give intelligent answers. Subscribed.

[@Flaawsometalk]

+TheBhutros Thanks for your support :-)

[@danielkarlsson258]

Awesome interview! Thanks!

[@HeadDownFM]

I hope the rest of your videos are like this but I'm subscribing

[@mariacarlesso]

I loved his answers for this interview! In his case, I did mistake him for the characters he played…

[@dzfz2100]

What a brilliant interview! Fantastically perceptive questions and such honest and thoughtful answers

[@Flaawsometalk]

THANK YOU! 😘😘😘

[@vai82]

Great interviewer.

[@moviemaen]

"... there´s no culture in celebrity culture... ZERO! "

[@Hoganply]

One of the better interviewers, for sure.

[@Cloudyconfusion]

Fantastic interview and all still relevant 9 years later 👏

[@matejpetkovski490]

Holywood is a mountain of EGO

[@phariaz]

I'v been watching your interviews for the last couple of months. Great job, I really enjoy them. Thanks and congrats!

[@Flaawsometalk]

+Gerardo Farías Thank you :-)

[@AndyFelbab]

Yeah, thank you Kjersti, I'll be watching more of your interviews. Really great stuff. It's pretty easy to tell when Zach is enjoying the conversation he's having in an interview because he's pretty honest. And most the time, it seems like hes hating it lol. But you got genuine Zach right here, at least it seems to be the case to me. If you can do a "no bullshit" kinda interview with Mr Galifianakis, then I look forward to all your others. Great job! Thank you for doing it the right way.

[@Flaawsometalk]

+Andys Videos/Bungle Boy Videos Thank you for saying that. I really appreciate comments like this. It makes me want to do my job even better. Please keep watching, and thanks again for this feedback!

[@Halo3ODST_br]

These interviews are very personal

[@HiDadSoupmusic]

Very motivating dialogue. Your dedication to break the junket mold is highly apparent!

[@Flaawsometalk]

+Geoff Fischer Thank you!

[@Fireoncityy]

Straight. Real interview. I love it. So rare. Good job

[@Flaawsometalk]

Fireoncityy Thank you :-)

[@Fireoncityy]

=] Genuinely wish all interviews were no bullshit like this one its so refreshing...!

[@JonasPolsky]

Very well-spoken.

[@SalveRegina8]

So glad you have this interview! Brilliant.

[@fredrikandersson1141]

The celebrities come off as more likable when they talk to you. Great interview!

[@Flaawsometalk]

What a wonderful compliment, Fredrik. Thank you!!

[@utopiachild71]

He is so insightful.. Great interview

[@Durrpadil]

I agree wholeheartedly with Zack on this one.

[@TheArtOfTrading]

Haha what a boss. Awesome interview. Reminds me of inside the actors studio in terms of depth

[@fuberlin1]

Soo good! I hope he gets more good dramatic roles, he deserves it :)

[@Phamster92]

Comedian Patrice O'Neal also did a similar and longer interview where he goes into what the entertainment industry is about and why it sickened it.

[@torkilbrrs3454]

Looks like Zach is coming out of his shell with this movie, and this interview shows how he is evolving as an actor, with honesty instead of characters. Look forward to his future project.

[@PunsandPixels]

Probably him coming from a happy background is why he’s so down to earth. All the other divas are a bunch of broken people

[@sharkface8301]

thIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE EVER, I AM SEEING ZG LAUGH!!! WOW LIKE REALLY LADY I MUST BLESS FOR BRINGING JOY TO HIM WAY AT THE BEGINNING AS YOU STARTED WITH THAT COMPLIMENT.

[@rollingschmon]

"I don't think anyone would go up to the scarecrow from Wizard of Oz and say hey! Be the scarecrow!" Lol

[@artgallery7376]

Zack..Zack..you are funny, smart and talented..please be yourself.

[@bluecollarmenproductions]

Zachary got real. Love your stuff Kjersi, btw you work a lot

[@ValerieSunshine]

Hey-great interview..Zach is a truly gifted actor..thanks for this

[@Flaawsometalk]

+Valerie Gerke Thanks :-)

[@samma777]

even i talk alot and am hyper but thats just when im around many people. but, otherwise, im so quiet/silent. totally relates to zach's situation xD

[@whiterabbit7799]

You are very good at your work, keep it up :)

[@Flaawsometalk]

Kokos Kokou Thank you !!

[@phoenixzappa7366]

+Kjersti Flaa (Junketlife) wasnt talking to you

[@JinXPhantom]

Wow, had no idea Zach is this serious in real life. I guess I'm too used to the characters he plays on screen...

[@chrisedwards253]

Wow that last part was interesting!

[@joelarmstrongmusic]

got new subscriber, these are great!

[@amygalvin1799]

I’m waiting for more between two ferns. He seems like a great guy.

[@Flaawsometalk]

I did another interview with him which was hilarious. It’s here on my channel

[@noisemagician]

And.... subbed!

[@shaunaru]

I admire his comment saying there is too much swearing in the movies and then listening to the rest of his comment, he remained true - he demonstrated that you can communicate very effectively and entertain others even without using profanity in your speech. There are certain instances where profanity seems to fit, but not to the degree that hollyweird and the ignorant sheep of the public seem to think. If you use it for shock value or because it's believed that some characters use it (goons, gangs, cons, cops, military, etc.), that's one thing, but when it's overused (as it is in hollyweird and the public) it loses it's shock value and people from all sorts of backgrounds, educational groups, genders, earning levels, etc. are using the same language, they all seem like ignorant, uneducated, ill-mannered, immoral creatures. I had to laugh watching Ms. Flaa because shortly after his comment on choice of language, she ended up using the "f" word twice in one sentence - ha ha! Talk about someone who doesn't pay attention to what others are saying! We fortunate to have so many words available for us to use - we are able to describe things in great detail and help others to paint a picture in their own minds, just by carefully choosing our words. Great authors are able to set a wonderful example of just how rich language can be and how learning to use language/words effectively and intelligently improves the world because it improves the value and quality of our communication with others. I see so many comments online that are a waste of space and time because they don't communicate any information at all: "Hey, that was so $#%!*. . . it made me feel $#%!* . . . more than ever. That $#%!* . . .ing $#%!* . . . - I'll be watching out for that $#%!* . . . er!! Yeah, well, hmmm . . . can you tell us if you loved or hated it? The person you'll be watching out for - male or female? Are you watching out for that person because you hate them or because you're a fan? It's become ridiculous to watch people "trying" to communicate - very little exchange of meaningful information, yet they smile and nod their heads at each other - ha ha! Too bizarre!

[@shaunaru]

+mnchls Great example of just what I was talking about. You communicated very little except your rudeness and ignorance. Too bad you waste opportunities to actually demonstrate that you have a worthwhile mind. BTW, is this how you would like someone to talk to your grandmother? Thanks so very much for the Mother's Day greeting!

[@mnchls]

tl;dr zach g is a comedy GOD

[@xleax6479]

Cool interview

[@Flaawsometalk]

xleax Thank you!! Really appreciate that.

[@FuhrerVonKickass]

Great video, and I absolutely love your interviews. I'm currently studying theater at WAAPA and I get annoyed when I see interviewers asking the same damn questions. You're very entertaining and you've given me a great look at some of my favourite actors. Thank you :)

[@TreFancy]

I'm so glad I ran across this interview I really could not stand Zach I thought he was obnoxious and I'm guilty of believing he was the characters he portrayed in real life. I feel embarrassed and would like to apologize.

[@HandsomeMalcolmcats]

Yet he also chose those characters. So he either related to them or found a certain artistic, poetic justice in playing them. Regardless, he gave those characters to the world, so he’s not completely removed from his own narrative about the hypocrisy of Hollywood.

[@Wheeliumb]

So weird seeing Zac serious
