‘Clipped’ Star Cleopatra Coleman on Recreating V. Stiviano’s Barbara Walters Interview and Her ‘Earnest’ Desire for Fame: ‘If She Had a Kris Jenner, She’d Become a Kardashian’

Indeed, in the show’s first episode, Donald (Ed O’Neill) calls V. his silly rabbit in private, during a tender conversation she apparently wouldn’t want Walters to know about. Stiviano briefly became a tabloid obsession after the TMZ leak, and especially drew attention for the offbeat way she presented herself in public — from the ABC clip to the colorful visor and rollerskates she wore to exit her house as it was surrounded by paparazzi. Afterward, though, there isn’t much unpacking of the strange things she said on-air — a creative choice Coleman says helps to preserve the “pure, earnest and almost childlike” nature of V.’s goal to become famous.
