During her interview with Hugh Grant, Ashley Graham kept giving him opportunities to redeem himself. She tried to get him to discuss his appearance in “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery,” but all he gave her was, “Well, I’m barely in it. I’m in it for about 3 seconds.” And when she sent the aloof actor on his way by telling him, “It was nice to talk to you,” he responded with a terse “Yeah” and an eye-roll. But Graham smiled on.
When TMZ spoke to Graham about the awkward red carpet moment, she revealed where she got the unshakeable poise that she displayed in the face of such daunting indifference. “You know what? My mama told me to kill people with kindness, so there you go,” she said.

(If only he could use cue cards for interviews.)
