The interview went viral, mostly due to the awkward interaction between the actress and the show hosts. The now-infamous interview started with one of the hosts addressing Delevingne as “Carla.” Upon being asked how she manages several projects, she answered, “I don’t know where that comes from.”

Her sarcastic responses continued when asked if she could relate to her character in the movie. “No, I actually hate her,” she replied. The lack of enthusiasm in the actress prompted the show hosts to suggest that she might be exhausted and humorously advised her to “take a little nap, maybe get a Red Bull.”
