Describe for us your role on UNBREAKABLE KIMMY SCHMIDT.

RACHAEL: I play one of Xan's three roommates - a trio of athletes committed to their team. We don't like Xan, but we 사랑 Kimmy.

How was it to work alongside Ellie Kemper? And, also with the creator Tina Fey?

RACHAEL: They were both wonderful. Ellie is so vibrant and gracious. Every morning 당신 were greeted with a smile, even though 당신 know, being a new mom, she was probably up all night. She was always on her game. And Tina is the producer 당신 always hope for. When we walked on set, she was the first person with an outstretched hand introducing herself. Her crew loves her. There wasn't a bad egg on set, and that's a testament to how Tina, Rob and their producing team run the show.

What would 당신 consider your character's ‘best’ quality? And their ‘worst’?

RACHAEL: Josie's best quality would probably be her loyalty. Her worst - she can be a little judgmental sometimes.

Any funny stories from behind-the-scenes?

RACHAEL: There's a scene in Episode 6 where Josie has a nip slip in the bookstore - tastefully hidden 의해 a hat rack. The direction was to put myself back into my 상단, 맨 위로 after my line. Well after a couple takes, Don came over and asked if I could make a bigger deal out of the lift and replacement. I said, "So basically give myself bigger boobs. I can do that!" So, I got to give myself a fake boob job for the shot. It was great.
