\n LOS ANGELES (AP) \u2014 When Veronika Slowikowska graduated from college in 2015, she did what conventional wisdom says aspiring actors should do: Work odd jobs to pay the bills while auditioning for commercials and background roles, hoping you eventually make it.And although the Canadian actor and comedian has had a host of affirmations from Hollywood that have kept her going, including a recurring role in the FX series \u201cWhat We Do in the Shadows,\u201d Slowikowska inadvertently took a kind of back door to augment her fame when she began regularly posting filmed skits on social media last year.It didn\u2019t take long for her to go viral, and her videos have since caught the attention of fellow comedians like Jack Black, as well as other celebrities including Justin Bieber. \u201cYou don\u2019t have quite the stamp of approval from the industry,\u201d she said during a recent interview with The Associated Press as she reflected on the weirdness of internet fame.<\/p>\n
But the attention has opened doors for the 28-year-old, including a spot in this year\u2019s star-studded Netflix is a Joke Festival lineup in Los Angeles, which she did amid a live comedy show tour.<\/p>\n
Often improvised and missing an obvious punch line, her videos encapsulate an absurdist, internet-saturated millennial and Gen Z humor that surely leave many viewers scratching their heads in confusion. But her chops and training as an actor and comedian, including from The Second City improv school in Toronto, set her apart from many content creators.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause I was trained and because I acted before, I think people always saw me as a little bit of both. Whereas I think maybe sometimes if you start as a content creator and then you\u2019re trying to book something, it\u2019s a little harder,\u201d she mused.Although the clear star, she makes her videos with her roommates and collaborators Kyle Chase and Michael Rees, with whom she splits profits from ads or views. They\u2019ll often brainstorm a general premise for a skit, then improvise the dialogue once the camera is rolling.<\/p>\n
In one of her first videos to blow up, the trio is celebrating Slowikowska\u2019s birthday. She begs the men to push her head in a cake, but they protest, claiming she asked for this last year and became enraged when they did it. \u201cDon\u2019t put my face in the cake and don\u2019t film it and don\u2019t make it go viral,\u201d she teases.They finally cave. Now covered in frosting, Slowikowska immediately pulls an about-face, as her cheery laughter morphs into tears, and she storms out.In another skit, she\u2019s found lying face down in a tantrum on a driveway. When the person behind the camera asks what\u2019s wrong, she mutters that she wasn\u2019t invited to be in the new Charli XCX music video.\u201cAll the hottest girls on the internet were in it, and I seemed to have missed the invite,\u201d she says of the buzzy \u201c360\u201d music video that dropped in May, which boasts stars like Julia Fox,Rachel Sennott and Chlo\u00eb Sevigny.\u201cWe (expletive) up,\u201d the music video\u2019s director, Aidan Zamiri, commented on Instagram.\u201cBig time,\u201d Charli XCX responded.<\/p>\n
A feature of Slowikowska\u2019s comedy that was an important realization for her is a willingness to look ugly when she\u2019s in character, something she struggled with in her early days of improv.\u201cI was like wearing Lululemon and trying to be like, \u2018See, I\u2019m still cute,\u2019\u201d she recalled, saying a shift occurred in the past few years. \u201cI really don\u2019t think about how I look when I\u2019m making a video, on stage, in front of a camera when I\u2019m filming something. I don\u2019t think there is room for that when you\u2019re really in the moment.\u201dThat willingness is apparent in her videos, like when she turned her swollen and bruised face after a gum graft surgery into a bit about discovering a \u201clip filler hack.\u201dAlthough she ultimately wants to continue acting in and eventually making film and television, she recognizes the growing popularity of consuming entertainment online.\u201cA lot of people are like, \u2018Short form is the future\u2019 and I hope it\u2019s not. It\u2019s such an amazing tool and creates community and is a great equalizer, where all of the sudden now blank knows this Polish girl from Canada,\u201d she said. \u201cBut I think having a group of people working on something for years, like a script or a television show, is always going to be more fulfilling.\u201d<\/p>\n
Before internet fame, Slowikowska had booked a lead role in the co-commissioned Amazon Prime Video and Hulu teen sci-fi series \u201cDavey & Jonesie\u2019s Locker,\u201d which premiered in March. She also snagged a role in the Amazon Freevee film \u201cEXmas,\u201d which stars Leighton Meester.Slowikowska bounced around between Los Angeles and Toronto for a few years, before moving to New York last year, hoping to benefit from the city\u2019s comedy scene.Around the time she moved, however, the Hollywood actors strike began. With no auditions to go to, she turned her attention and energy to making videos.<\/p>\n
Now, with about 500,000 followers on both her Instagram and TikTok accounts, Slowikowska is still regularly posting videos but navigating how best to leverage her experience and clout in this moment.\u201cI want to make my own stuff. I want to make my own movies and television series, and I\u2019ve been working on those scripts,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd now, with this opportunity, you know, people are looking.\u201d<\/p>\n
