Amanda Seyfried has discovered that playing Elizabeth Holmes was the easy part; talking about her on a red carpet is an entirely different story. After her noticeably awkward answers on the red carpet of You Can See Everything about whether she had spoken to the infamous Theranos founder went viral, Seyfried addressed the moment by commenting under a video of the exchange, seemingly just as confused by the conversation as everyone watching it.
Celebrity life comes with an inconvenient little tradition: answering questions you would rather dodge, preferably without looking like you want the floor to swallow you whole. Seyfried has become the latest star to discover that sometimes, the follow-up explanation only makes things more entertaining.
Amanda Seyfried cringes at her You Can See Everything answers
Amanda Seyfried had a rather unusual answer for reporters who wanted to know what was going on in her life. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, the The Dropout star was asked whether she was finding interviews difficult lately, prompting a winding response about fate, the people who enter our lives, and being exactly where we are meant to be.
“It’s interesting, yeah, it’s interesting,” Seyfried began, before admitting that things were different “for a good reason.”
“What am I even saying,” she commented beneath Instagram footage of the interview, seemingly recognizing that her answer had taken a life of its own.
Rather than offering a straightforward explanation, Seyfried continued reflecting on how everyone in her life was meant to be there, adding that she was meant to attend the event that evening and return home the following day. Asked whether everyday conversations had become difficult, she said it seemed to have happened “only of late.”
