Mindy Kaling?


Has anyone been watching the Office? What do you think about her? Go Fug Yourself ran this picture with a scathing commentary about her boots (It seems to be South Asia week at GFY, Parminder Nagra and a British Pakistani star, I mean random woman, named Sophia Hyatt also got fugged). I haven't seen her on the Office but the name sounded familiar and I realized that I had seen her in Matt and Ben, a play she co-wrote about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, where she played Ben. In the play the script of Good Will Hunting falls out of the sky and it shows how their lives are changed forever. She was great in it-- it was a one-joke show, for sure, but she did the the lovable but not too smart thing really well.

I don't watch The Office either, and not much chance this season because Gilmore and Veronica Mars will be a Tuesday night event, but well those boots are saddening. I'm going to pretend she has some kind of stress fracture like I do and thereby can produce a note from her doctor to excuse her.

A pair of those beaded mesh slippers would be 1000x better though.

So sad when cute comedic girls (of color!) get called out for relatively harmless offenses like this. But they can't rip on Bai Ling everyday.
