base talk Viola goes viral for Michelle Obama clip

[Achilles.]

This is why you don’t sign onto Showtime projects.

[CaptainMusic]

Why on earth did they allow her to do that for the whole show. This looks like such a mess, hands down Viola’s worst acting performance already

 

Oh well, most acting legends have a bad performance here and there.

“There’s a lot of fear that I messed up my portrayal. I’m mostly terrified about what she will think. I don’t want to insult her & have her calling me. I gotta make the sister look good. I just hope that it lands with her.” - Queen Viola on playing Queen Michelle

[Mystic Boy]

No No No Viola ! Why did you have to tarnish your impeccable filmography with a bad acting like this one? 

[BGXKB]

I mean this is hilarious whatever it is.

[boxoffice]

This is a bad performance, no way to go around it. But trying to call Viola overrated is so pathetic 

[campelo]

That’s so uncalled, this is actually a bone problem right, in her jaw? 

[dfantasy]

I thought this was SNL or something 

[Bears01]

Holy overacting….

 

Shes still a phenomenal actress though, some of y’all in here are going WAY overboard 

[Mariano]

Yeah the first few pics we got months ago looked kinda good, but welp... it turned out quite badly actually! 

[Raver]

The way she captured Michelles mannerisms down to a T 

 

Spoiler

Tho I don’t think Michelle was going around calling Obama *****. Now that scene is unnecessary

Why would Viola even agree to this .. The paycheck must have been FAT 

She, Gillian and Michelle all get $600k per episode, which is great of course but not exactly the astronomical, unheard of figure that might make it worthy of signing on to a potentially terrible project for someone so on demand as Viola. For reference, Jennifer and Reese get $2M for every episode of The Morning Show

[DoctorIce]

I was going to say that the people responsible weren't looking out for her best interests in allowing her to do this, but she's literally a producer. 

[aesthetic bih]

I love Viola so much so I can't possibly make fun of this queen. But I don't think she looks anything like Michelle on that clip tho

And there’s no way Michelle was throwing up the black power fist to butlers in the White House 

[My Tears Ricochet]

Tragic lol

[RunUpDoneUp]

The romanticism of michelle seems like cope from the trauma inducing trump presidency. She was very off-putting most times to me and she always gave snooty even though obama apologists did pr for her too. Didn't like the performance here but acting like it was watching night during day would be a gross exaggeration.

[rivers]

I love Viola but damn. And also why does Barrack Obama look 20 years younger than her? The casting was a choice. 

[Truth Teller]

This is her Mommie Dearest moment but unfunny and uniconic

Patrick Melrose was incredible though sadly overlooked

[Baby Judas]

[Attitude]

Is this show a comedy?

Okay I didn’t see this looks like a very varied performance and she does look amazing.
