Comedy Talk: Rashida Jones Charms Conan
March 16, 2008 by Chandra
…and a shorts-wearing Will Ferrell — get a look at those legs!
Former Office worker Rashida Jones took some time out of her busy schedule a few weeks ago to promote her new Farrelly Brothers sitcom Unhitched on Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
After O’Brien got over his pleasant surprise that Jones is one quarter Irish — thanks to her mother Peggy Lipton’s mother — she and the host discussed lots of things.
O’Brien is well aware of the Farrelly style of outlandish comedy, although he’s never met the siblings. But, even he recognizes a lawsuit just waiting to happen when Jones describes Peter Farrelly’s extremely unique and moronic manner of greeting the actress. Lucky for him Jones apparently has a tolerant sense of humor.
Jones also tells about her painful encounter with Michael Jackson’s chimpanzee Bubbles when she was just ten years old. I guess those are the kinds of memories you get to have when your dad is the music biz’s legendary Quincy Jones.
Check out the video of the interview after the jump, and remember that Unhitched airs Sundays on Fox at 9:30pm EST.
