Aubrey Plaza explains interesting reason she 'never wears underwear' while filming

From method acting to physical transformations, the stars of the screen all have their own ways to prepare for a role. And similarly, many of them have little traditions or superstitions to fulfil when they take on new project.

On the more unconventional side of that, Aubrey Plaza has admitted she ‘never wears underwear’ when filming.

Yep, the Parks and Recreation star has delivered another banger of a ‘fact’ in one of their classic deadpan deliveries.

Known for being a somewhat cynical celeb and hard to read in interviews, Plaza explained the interesting reason why she supposedly goes commando on the job.

During a video with Entertainment Weekly, the My Old Ass actor seemed a little uncomfortable in her chair as she said she was ‘on fire’.

Making a reference to the new film, Plaza said she thinks ‘it’s just my old ass’ before pulling out the classic deadpan with: "Maybe I should've worn underwear, but I never do. And then I get f**ked."

This led the star to go on to advise people to ‘always wear underwear’. You know, in case one day you just happen to think to yourself ‘I dunno, it’d be fun not to’.

Plaza went on to explain her theory: “I feel like acting is all about, you have to have your body in this weird malleable state.

"Never have to pee when you're doing a scene. Even if you a little bit are like, 'Maybe I have to pee,' just get it all out. Just get whatever fluids out. Be like an empty vessel.… If you don't wear underwear, it can come out faster. So don't ever wear underwear in life."

I mean, the fun with Plaza is you can never quite tell if she’s being serious.

Maybe she’s joking about not wearing underwear or maybe she really is just appearing on our screen while going commando.

And she’s certainly been on our screen a lot. Currently starring in the WandaVision spin-off on Disney+, Agatha All Along, as well as Megalopolis having recently landed in cinemas.

The star also appeared in the last season of The White Lotus but for many she’ll always be April Ludgate from Parks and Rec.

While that’s not been on our screens properly since 2015, Plaza did previously tell LADbible Group she’d be in for a reboot if Amy Poehler is. Wonder if she’ll wear underwear if that happened.
