(MINOR) FAME HAS CHANGED MEWHEN I WAS on The Office, I was the perfect kind of famous: a little bit famous. Double-take-at-the-airport famous. Occasionally someone would come up to me and excitedly say, “That’s what she said!” and I would smile knowingly and respond, “Steve’s great, isn’t he?” implying that Steve Carell and I are very close friends who vacation together.Now things are a little different. To clarify: I’m by no means famous-famous, like Rihanna or a Kardashian or Nicki Minaj’s butt. Those are people who have to wear makeup when they exercise, which is a whole other tier of fame.Being known is really fun, extremely strange, and not very important. This is what it’s like.THESE ARE THE THINGS I CAN NO LONGER DO NOW THAT I’M FAMOUSBargain for StuffLike every normal person, when I go to a flea market, I don’t want to be the chump who pays the asking price for anything. But recently, my friend B. J. Novak pointed out that loudly bargaining in public is unbecoming for actresses with their own TV shows.
