This Cate Blanchett and Sarah Paulson interview goes spectacularly off the rails
Watch Next

The best types of interview are the ones that descend into total, giggling chaos.

It normally seems to happen when two celebrities -- especially ones who clearly get on really well -- get paired up together. Ryan Reynolds and Jake Gyllenhaal gave the perfect example of this when they were promoting the movie Life last year. But now Sarah Paulson and Cate Blanchett may actually have out-done them.

The Today interview above starts off with everyone involved cry-laughing, then somehow escalates to Cate Blanchett sitting on Sarah Paulson's lap

There isn't a single, serious answer given, and it's perfect.
