Bowen Yang

you know, pop culture, one second you're having fun talking about it.

And then all of a sudden, like you're a person on the other side of it.

And you're like, Oh wow, that's a misrepresentation of, of what I am or that's not true about me or that feels especially needless or cruel.

But then on the other side, like I think for all that, um,

you know, that's out there that you can recognize, there's also a lot of good and a lot of positivity.

And luckily, you know, Bowen and I feel very like held by our audience and always have.

Yeah, I mean...

I understand sometimes why it might be harder to root for me than someone else.

You know what I mean?

When someone sees, when there's a perception that you are really crushing it, or you're busy, or you're doing a lot of stuff, I completely get that.

I completely get getting dunked on.

But I guess I just try to focus now less on the perception out there and more on what I'm doing because that's what really makes me happy.

And I really do feel like even if things are positive.

Yeah.

Like, for example, today, like a friend of mine sent me a review for Stop That Train, the movie that I'm in coming out with RuPaul.

Right.

And it was a really positive review.

Yeah.

But I did remind myself, like, remember that they won't all be positive and they can't all be positive.

Right.
