Undeniably beautiful, and biting sarcasm. Sweet.

although not the most beautiful lady in the world, i would definitely kiss her if she asked.

>> ^volumptuous:
..biting sarcasm..

she talked?

What he said: "Were you a young girl when that began?"
What he meant: "Were you a teenager when that began?"
What went through her mind: "WTF? Did he just call me old?"

Wow. She is absolutely spectacular!

Typical Asian impertinence. This may fly on Indian talk shows, but this young lady needs a lesson in Northern conventions.

Whoa.

She's prettier than me.

She ran circles around him.

Don't get me wrong. I think she's fantastically gorgeous, funny, and smart, but I also think that she lives in "the bubble." Did you guys see the last episode of 30 Rock? It's about the bubble of encouragement and approval that beautiful people live in. I thought of that when I watched this video because both the studio and the VS audiences seem overly-enthusiastic, if you ask me.

^You may be right. Just goes to show that our western culture does not have a monopoly on favouritism. But she is witty.

Didn't see her "burn" him.

She did appear most attractive and smart though.

^True but "Aishwarya Rai talks with David Letterman" isn't as appealing a title, plus she got in a few jabs. I especially like when he asks her if she is a huge star globally and she basically says, "well you never heard of me".

The glare at 3:50 is soooo priceless.

Was that Sayid in the pool?

I don't disagree with you that this lady is probably in her own bubble. But in this interview Letterman came across as being in even more of a bubble of his own, accentuated by his apparent ignorance of her, her life, and the culture from which she had come. After seeing the clip where her character decries the businessman's proposal of creating an Indian getaway where people would not have to deal with India, I can see how Letterman asking her if she would ever consider moving permanently to Hollywood could have been insulting to her. Hence her barbed reaction.

Now from what I have seen of Letterman, I would never describe him as an ignorant person. He usually comes across to me as intelligent, well read, witty, and generally a pleasant fellow. This may just have been a case of being (uncharacteristically) poorly prepped for the interview --an honest mistake. Letterman will probably not remembered this as one of his favorite interviews (even if it was fun to watch).

Her personality seems to be a rough portrait of the character she plays in the movie.

I like it when an actor/actress actually reads a line and actually means it.

I think this movie might be worth watching, except I've already lived through the late 80's and don't quite feel like going back to it.

Nevermind

Letterman is a terrible interviewer. He should talk less and let her talk more.

^That's just his style. I personally don't like it either, but it works i suppose.

He is great at being himself and whatever grumpy old fart that he is, and that got him this far for and on the air for so long.

So it's not really about how good you are. It all comes down to how sure you are working your own trade.

its always lovely to see such a witty and well spoken person. she would be hot even if she wasn't hot already just by her personality

Oooh I like her. She's feisty and smart and that makes her way more attractive. Mind you, that sort of directness is typical of Indian culture.

Hot yet somewhat annoying, like the sun in your eyes.
