Comedians say so all the time, like when they do roasts. You don't go full diva dipshit when you barely know someone you are interviewing, unless you are FAMOUS for it like Rickles. This is some no name bitch acting like she is good personal friends with Che with her attitude. Doesn't come of as funny in the slightest. It's like he dated her friend in high school and they broke up and she is still pissed for her friend.
