I’m back and I have more Aubrey Plaza news! Well, this time its not “news” it’s more like vapid fluff that we have all deemed very important and fun on this Tuesday and now I am going to write about it to make you smile!
Yesterday, Drew Barrymore dropped a video from her “Drews News Podcast” where she had a quick interview with Aubrey Plaza! It’s basically a bite-sized moment where she and a guest talk about news headlines and have a little chat about it all. They talked about White Lotus and the theme song being played in clubs, human connection, Aubrey’s upcoming projects, and the clip that has gone viral — Aubrey doting on Drews’s mum skills and asking her to be her mommy.
The viral clip in question (tweeted out by @olivialilymarks) is 36 seconds long and has since sent le$beans, dykes, queer babes, and everyone else into a tizzy!

Handsome & Incredible Writer Meecham (who I’m very excited to meet this year at Sundance btw!) then dropped this tweet, which is how I found it:
I’m gonna say this again…Aubrey Plaza is to women what Oscar Isaac is to men. And I’m NOT explaining pic.twitter.com/T9UVg6ZnUR

EYE AGREE AND EYE SHALL EXPLAIN FROM MY POV!
I feel (shout out to my therapist) that Aubrey is wildly aware of how we (lé dykes) feel about her. She has made it clear in interviews where she points out that she knows how we felt about her character arc in Happiest Season and has even given subtle nods acknowledging the WILD things said about her on lesbian twitter and sapphic TikTok — SHE KNOWS THAT WE DIG HER and is going along for the ride. She is toying with us in the best way possible and probably scrolling away as we speak with a slightly creepy smirk on her face enjoying it all.
It’s all in good fun, the interview was cute, and here are the gems I think the gays are salivating over:
- “Be my mommy.”
- “Put me to bed. Ughhhh put me to bed.”
- “NURTURE ME. NOURISH ME”
- “I know you do.”
Please watch the whole video ‘cos it’s actually really cute AND there is a bonus moment from 10:15 to 10:21 where Aubrey once again was like “Wow this person is amazing”.
Anyway, happy Tuesday, and cheers to all of you with mommi issues including Aubrey. CELEBS — THEY ARE JUST LIKE US!!
Hahaha shelli Ty for writing this
Shelli this killed me!
this content is literally catered to me in every single way and i, frankly, am obsessed!
Ugh, I dunno why Autostraddle keeps swooning over this shitty and problematic white woman(Aubrey). Seriously hurts me as a Arab trans woman here in a safe space.
Why/how is she problematic? All I’m aware of is she’s an lgbtq+ poc actress who has played characters we have loved for years and now seems to be getting the attention she deserves. She’s talented, she’s hot, she’s funny, and she’s weird. That’s why people keep swooning, but I’m sure you know that and it was a rhetorical question.
Aubrey is Puerto Rican since it sounds like maybe you don’t know that. (Which is fine, but now you do!)
Please enlighten us…
She has made transphoic comments, is friends with bad Chris the actor and is overrated. No need to swoon over a woman who some how claims I have privileged over her because of my birth assignment.
I’m just…I can’t stop watching this and blushing. I put it in my instagram story and have now probably alienated everyone except a specific subgenre of queer women who follow me lol
