00:00I'm a little afraid to do the balloon closes. Let's go for it
00:06Hey, I'm Yara Shahidi and I'm playing pop quiz with Marie Claire, let's go
00:13What is the best gift you've received my pocket watches
00:18When I was young that is literally all I wanted and getting a vintage pocket watch for
00:26Christmas was incredible. I
00:29Was prepared, how did you make your first dollar? I was six weeks old the air was brisk and I
00:37Was in an advertisement a print ad for life insurance
00:41It was just little baby Yara looking into the camera like wouldn't you want life insurance to protect this?

00:50What word makes you cringe? I remember in ninth grade
00:55My religion teacher wanted to find words that intentionally
01:00Made us cringe and so he found the word pews. It's a color and I just I don't like any bit of it
01:08Okay, what can you not miss on TV or a streamer?
01:13Okay, I've watched way too
01:17Many episodes of Atlanta and the reason I say that is that there aren't many episodes
01:22Which means I've just continued to watch it and rewatch it. I loved rewatching avatar with my brothers
01:28Those are some that come top of mind Great British baking show. Oh, that's my stuff
01:35Last song you got stuck in your head. Oh easy. The last one was called pears by Weston estate. I have been obsessed

01:47So, you know that one part in Black Panther like mind you I've watched this movie five times
01:52But when Michael B. Jordan says I was just a young kid running around Oakland. I'm paraphrasing
01:58Believing in fairy tales. There's something about that line that a single tear trickles down my face like on cue
02:05favorite couch snack other than
02:08Nectarines, which are my favorite snack like favorite junk food snack would have to be those kettle corn pop chips such a delicious snack
02:16What is something people would be surprised to know about you?
02:19My general party trick is that I sound hollow right here
02:25The last book I read it was probably something for my thesis the work that I read was called
02:32Black images white screens or maybe reversed white screens black images. I think there's something so interesting about how granular
02:40Lee he analyzes old movies and films to understand why representation matters. Oh
02:46My god, this is such a cool question. Do you have any secret talents?
02:50I dabble in Old English and the only phrase I've retained after a year of studying it is
02:57The King said which is say I couldn't act quiet
03:03Chocolate or cheese easy chocolate. I am so lactose intolerant
03:07Last text you sent. Oh, it was a picture
03:10I sent of my brother and I sent that to the family group chat because I had a picture of him that happened like a
03:15Year ago to date in which he looks like a different human being
03:22What should every woman try at least once in her life, oh, you know one thing I tried I had a year of
03:28Saying no, our yeses are extremely powerful
03:31But I know especially as a young woman and a young woman of color growing up in this world
03:36Getting comfortable saying no and not having to justify it is something that takes constant practice
03:41So my year of no is a must try
03:46Well, that was pop quiz and I hope you had just as good of a time as I did see you later
