Kaling says people often think she and her "Office" character, celebrity-obsessed Kelly Kapoor, are the same person. Things Kelly does that she would never do: "Consider driving away from the site of a vehicular manslaughter.... use a voodoo doll.... blackmail a boyfriend into taking her out to dinner." Where she and Kelly overlap? They would both "memorize our credit card numbers to shop online with ease.... [and] spend hours following a difficult recipe, hate the way it tastes, and throw it out to go to McDonald's."
