Kate Flannery, who’s best known for playing Meredith Palmer in the popular sitcom, reacted to the news that her old friend John Krasinski got the coveted title this year.
"This is so long overdue!" the actor told TMZ, “John Krasinski's gotten robbed every year since 2005, in my opinion. It's so time.”
“Have you seen him lately?" she continued, "Have you seen him since Jack Ryan? He is so jacked up. He is so hot my eyes are melting every time I see him in person. He and Emily [Blunt, his wife] are so good-looking I have to squint. He is really, really hot. Is nobody paying attention? I'm so glad people are finally paying attention."
The actor jokingly referred to her Office character’s boozy demeanour as she further explained her reaction.
“I'm not drunk, I'm telling you for real: John has always been adorable and really cute, but I feel like people haven't seen his sexiness since he's so cute," she said. "So it's the perfect marriage of two things: cute and hot and sexy and funny and smart and, I mean, he's much more than Jim."
Flannery continued to gush about her former co-star, noting that just like her, he was an unknown before the sitcom blew up.
“John was always one of the kindest, funniest, smartest kids," she recalled. "I mean, when I met him on The Office he hadn't done anything. I really hadn't done anything of note either. We also became famous together, and John always had that something, that really special something."
“He has so many talents," Flannery said. "He's an amazing director, he's an amazing actor. He's really funny, he's really smart — [but] he doesn't have to be funny. Because some people have to, and it's exhausting. So John is not exhausting. And yeah, you see a spark in someone right away, and John has always had it,” she concluded.
Now that’s what you call a supportive coworker!
