Here are some photos of Mindy Kaling out and about in NYC yesterday, where she was making the rounds on talk shows to promote Pixar’s Inside Out. Mindy voices “Disgust” and she’s really been doing a good job talking up the film. She seems really pleased with the final product and let’s face it, Pixar knows what they’re doing and the film will probably be a huge hit and win tons of awards. So here are some highlights from Mindy’s various appearances.

She wants to be Photoshopped. When Mindy appeared on The View, they chatted about her InStyle cover and she said: “When I was on the cover of this magazine, I think people were excited because I don’t look like a lot of women who tend to be on the covers of magazines…A lot of times when you’re not super skinny and you’re on a cover of magazines and stuff like that, the idea is like, ‘Oh, we’ll just let her be…we’re gonna get credit for letting her be really natural and real.’ But I’m like everyone else, whereas I’m like, ‘You can Photoshop me as much as you want!’”

She tried a child abuse “joke.” Jezebel made this into a thing, like Mindy made a terribly inappropriate joke about child abuse, but I think George Stephanopoulos sort of set her up with an awkwardly worded statement about how the film “makes you feel like you’re inside this 11-year-girl.” And Mindy just says, “….in a profoundly wholesome way.” That’s it.

Mindy believes sex scenes are a lot of fun. In her newest memoir Why Not Me?, Mindy chats about how much fun she has filming sex/romantic scenes and that all actors lie about how much fun they really are. She writes, in part: “I am here to tell you they’re all lying. Every last one of ’em. Obviously onscreen sex is not actual penetrative sex, but, as any religious high schooler will tell you, simulating sex can be pretty damn enjoyable as well.” As for all of the crew standing around watching you grind on some dude, Mindy writes: “The more, the merrier! Most of those people are artists whose job it is to make sure your physical imperfections are cloaked in mysterious shadows. By the end of the shooting day, you’ll wish there were more people there.”
