Here are some photos of Mindy Kaling and Sandra Bullock on the set of Ocean’s Eight this week. The main cast has been filming in New York for weeks now, and we’re getting glimpses of the characters through their fashion. Helena Bonham Carter is clearly playing an eccentric, Sandra Bullock is the “straight man” and Cate Blanchett is the rocker-type, like she’s a female Mick Jagger (or at least that’s how she’s dressed). Mindy’s character seems to be pretty buttoned-up and professional looking. Rihanna seems like a Rasta-type bohemian.
Anyway, during filming, Mindy started to notice something interesting: the paparazzi only seemed to care about Rihanna. Not only that, but the paparazzi (and everyone else) seemed to think Mindy was Sandra Bullock’s assistant. Mindy stopped by Seth Meyers’ show to talk about it. Incidentally, Seth and Mindy are old friends and you can really feel that they enjoy each other. Here’s the clip.
It’s a cute story and Mindy always talks about this kind of thing – that because she’s not a tall, lithe blonde, she’s mostly ignored by everyone. But I would imagine that it’s even sort of shocking for the true-blue movie stars like Sandra and Cate to deal with the kind of attention Rihanna gets just for walking outside.
Also, as that clip showed and as these photos show, Mindy has done something to her lips. We talked about it a little bit earlier this year, and I recently binge-watched the fourth season of The Mindy Project and OMG, is it noticeable. I believe in “her body, her choice” when it comes to plastic surgery and augmentation, but I also believe that it’s fine to say that it’s disconcerting when you see a celebrity you love with overinflated lips. And she is definitely overinflating.
