Lana Condor Discusses Fame & To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You With Ali Wong For Interview

Lana Condor sat down with Ali Wong for the new issue of Interview magazine. The two stars teamed up to promote their own individual projects while also interviewing one another for the issue. Highlights from the interview are below.

On the question she hates being asked the most: “Recently I’ve been getting the whole “Team Peter, Team John” thing, which are the two male characters in our movie, which I don’t love. I’m kind of sitting there in the middle of them being like, one, stop asking me, and two, I think you’re kind of forgetting, in the movie, you’re in Lara Jean’s brain. You have an Asian-American lead, and everyone is celebrating this diversity in the movie, and yet when journalists ask you about the movie, it has nothing to do with that. When you’re talking about female-led movies, all they want to do is ask about the love interest. As much as I think we’re making progress, those are really realistic reminders that we have a long way to go. Don’t get me wrong, I think the boys are awesome, but you’re forgetting that there are so many women in our movie that no one even talks about.”

On her favorite thing to cook: “Right now, it’s pizza. I’m really obsessed with learning Italian cooking. I can make a lot of incredible pastas, but something that I’ve been afraid to do is make homemade dough.”
