Ashley Graham is speaking out after that incredibly awkward red carpet interview with Hugh Grant at Sunday night's Oscars.
In the interview, an incredibly kind, professional and complimentary Graham spoke with Grant who was clearly not into the questions at all, at one point even rolling his eyes.
But Graham continued to smile and ask the typical red carpet questions despite his dismissive demeanor, asking about his suit, his thoughts on Oscar-nominated films and even recent role in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, to which Grant responded, "Well, I'm barely in it."
You can watch the cringe-inducing exchange below.
On Monday, TMZ caught up with Graham at the airport and asked her about the interview, wondering if she took offense to Grant's behavior.
The model and TV presenter responded that she used her mother's advice in the moment.
She revealed:
"You know what, my mama told me to kill people with kindness. So there ya go."
You can see her response below.
Viewers of both the red carpet interview and Graham's take on the situation applauded her for taking the high road and remaining professional.
Some, however, came to the Notting Hill star's defense claiming Grant wasn't being rude, he just wasn't invested in the interview.
Kudos to her for following through on her mother's advice - she definitely killed him with kindness.
