AceShowbiz - On the "Armchair Expert" podcast, Kathryn Hahn, 51, revealed that she and Ana Gasteyer, 57, are constantly confused for one another. Gasteyer joked, "Every single day, I probably get a compliment for her, and every single day, she gets a compliment for me." Both actresses attended Northwestern University, adding to their similarities.
Gasteyer once shared a photo of herself holding a Starbucks cup with "Bad Mom!" written on it, a reference to Hahn's role in the film. Hahn said she was mistaken for Gasteyer by saxophonist Kenny G, who approached her at a game show taping and praised her performance in "Bad Moms Christmas."
Despite the confusion, Hahn and Gasteyer are flattered by the similarities. Hahn said, "I'm very flattered. We both went [to] Northwestern." Gasteyer added, "We both have a pretty healthy body of work."
Their mutual admiration extends to a shared dream of playing sisters on screen. Gasteyer said, "Our dream would be to play sisters or something." Hahn has been busy promoting her Marvel spin-off series, "Agatha All Along", which features her character Agatha Harkness regaining her powers.
