(\"I had been replaced by a younger model. And now they had matching bangs.\") In \"Unlikely Leading Lady\", she muses on America's fixation with the weight of actresses, (\"Most women we see onscreen are either so thin that they're walking clavicles or so huge that their only scenes involve them breaking furniture.\") And in \"Soup Snakes\", Kaling spills some secrets on her relationship with her ex-boyfriend and close friend, B.J.
