Much has been made of Katie Britt's horrible acting in her rebuttal to President Biden's State of the Union address, with one pundit comparing her acting skill (or lack thereof) as somewhere between "porn and a high school play."

U.S. Senator Katie Britt was the main character on social media Thursday night after her expressive performance while delivering the GOP’s response to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address. While many compared her emotive delivery to that of an actor’s self-tape audition, one user went a step further and edited her into an episode of “Inside the Actors Studio.”

In the video made and shared by Ben Bowman, the late “Inside the Actors Studio” host James Lipton is seen delivering the show’s standard questionnaire that was given at the end of every episode for the 22 seasons he hosted, with clips from Britt’s speech used as responses.

“What turns you on?” Lipton says.

“Putin’s brutal aggression in Europe,” Britt replies in her intense delivery.

“What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?” Lipton continues.

“Sweeping the floor at my dad’s hardware store,” Britt responds.

Others suggested she may have attended Gene Cousineau's acting class, from the HBO show Barry.
