One week you may be an actor, and the next week you had to be nimble enough to be a TV host. And the week after that, you might have to do some stand-up or be in an improv company or write and sing a song somewhere.

Screw being a singer! I wanna be the voice of my generation with my talk show.

Since I was 8 years old, I wanted to be a talk show host.

I don't think I'd be a very good talk show host. I mean, I'm very talkative but I don't know if I could do that all the time.

I used to chop up C-Span soundbites or interviews with politicians like John Kerry or Bill Clinton into a radio-esque show hosted by Awkwafina and her producer, Mookie. I would pitch down my vocals to have male guests and would send them to a small circle of friends after they were done.

I can't sing or dance.

I may have a talent for acting, but I am incapable of doing anything else.

I wouldn't want to be a talk show host. That's another awkward compliment people make. 'You should have your own talk show.' And I think, no thank you.

I never thought I would become a television host, but I never thought anybody would pay me to just talk.
