Amanda Peet Admits She Was ‘Terrified’ Filming Her Seinfeld Guest Spot
Holy moly, grab your double-shot espresso because Auntie’s about to spill nonstop—Amanda Peet just confessed she was absolutely petrified during her Seinfeld cameo, and it is the juiciest thing you’ve heard today! The 53-year-old Your Neighbors and Friends star hopped on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and took a spin on the “Spill the IMDb Tea” wheel with Elizabeth Banks, only to have it land on that classic Seinfeld episode where Peet plays a waitress who dates Jerry. Cue eye roll and the admission, “That was a rough one for me. I had a lot of stage fright. I was really scared,” before rating the whole experience a modest 5 out of 10 (source: People). She even paused to clarify whether she was grading the episode itself or her own anxiety—and yep, she confirmed it was her personal freak-out level that tanked the score. But wait, there’s more caffeine-infused drama! Co-guest Banks, who’s never shy about sharing juicy details, jumped in to reveal her own spine-tingling moment on the Fred Claus set. Picture this: London’s Pinewood Studios, Banks alone in a corner, when POW—a ghostly presence grabs her. “She grabbed me and everything!” Banks recalled, rating that encounter a 4.85 out of 10 and vowing never to darken that corner again. It’s straight-up paranormal meets Hollywood glitz, with Banks negotiating with the spirit to vacate her movie-set bed. Both actresses tapped into equal parts humor and horror, making for a wild episode of rapid-fire confessions. With Cohen’s trademark “spill the tea” vibe, viewers got unfiltered Amanda Peet frantically surviving sitcom nerves and Elizabeth Banks negotiating with ghosts like it’s no big deal—two pop culture powerhouses dishing out tales you didn’t know you needed. So, what’s next for these fearless ladies? Will Amanda conquer her TV jitters once and for all? Can Elizabeth ever film another scene in that room? Stick around for more caffeinated revelations—Aunt Who’s Got Too Much Coffee is just getting started! Whew, I need a refill after that!
