We worked at a fashion magazine.

And the idea was that she was such a tyrant of a boss that every episode she'd have a new assistant.

They always quit or got fired.

And so I was only in the pilot.

And I knew that.

And, you know, I was a co-star.

I was not a, you know.

Wow.

series regular or anything.

And so I think because I was also really young, and I think because I thought there was no chance of moving forward with this, I just tried anything.

I thought it would be really funny if I just sort of physically did her.

So, like, if she tossed her hair, I would toss my hair.
