Mindy Kaling guests on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, shares thoughts on Vince Vaughn, Rihanna, and on being mistaken as Nobel winner Malala
Celebrity news: 35-year old funny girl Mindy Kaling dropped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! on November 26, and shared her thoughts on a wide range of topics, from Vince Vaughn to Rihanna to a time wherein people actually mistook her for Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai.
Things kicked off with Kimmel asking Kaling why she brought her phone out on the show.
"Vince Vaughn was here, and I've had a huge crush on Vince Vaughn for such a long time," she answered. "As he was trying to leave, I ambushed him and got a photo with him."
"Check it out!" she said, presenting the evidence to the talk show host.
"He is so hot... that guy is so tall. He's like a redwood... he is a redwood that I want to bang a little bit... the Vince Vaughn National Park is a park I would like to go to."
Kaling then brings up Rihanna, and how she's the pop star's fan girl.
"One of the reasons I wanted to come here is that I heard that you are co-hosting Rihanna's charity ball..." she explained. "I guess I just thought, 'Wow, that's really an incredible honor.' I'm a huge Rihanna fan, and I just thought, why did they ask you and not me?"
"She parties," Kaling warned Kimmel. "I just want to prepare you 'cause after the event, you might end up in the cool afterparty, in like a thong on a beach."
Kaling found herself in a party as well, but apparently as someone else.
She described the scene. "I was recently in New York City, at kind of a clubby, New York City party at the Boom Boom Room."
"Just so people know, that's the club where Jay Z and Solange Knowles got into the fight in the elevator. So like, stuff happens there. I was very excited to be invited to this party."
"I was looking around, I was like, 'Oh this is going to be fun,'" she said.
"Alcohol was flowing, I looked hot... as I always do at these events. This kind of like, elderly man came over to me, and was like, 'Oh my god! I'm such a big fan!' I was like, 'Oh, thank you!' And he's like, 'Malala, you're so amazing.' He thought I was the 17-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala."
As far as the man was concerned, he met Malala that night; and Kaling wouldn't dare burst his bubble. "I did not tell him [it wasn't me]," she said.
