Angela Kinsey, who's best known for playing Angela on The Office, called out her nephew for using her to get clout from potential suitors on Tinder.
In his profile, the 25-year-old nephew, James, brags about his life, including the little tidbit about his famous aunt.
"Life long musician, can get along with just about anyone. Also a former firefighter. You can still call me a fireman cause I turn the hoes on," he writes. Yes, he actually says that.
Then he adds: "and yes Angela from the office is my aunt." He backs it up with a photo of himself and the actress.
But one tweeter blew up his spot and posted a screenshot of James' profile. "i'm fucking DEAD rn ya'll have no idea," read the tweet exposing James' profile. And it seems that's when Kinsey got a hold of the news—and she wasn't having it. She went to Instagram to shut it down. "Nephews…do not put me in your @tinder profile photos. K. Thx. Byeeeee," read her message with a photo of herself.
Kinsey later went to Twitter to comment on the incident. "I'm screaming!!!" tweeted journalist Yashar Ali as a reaction to the aforementioned tweet. "I mean... right," replied Kinsey with a grimacing emoji.
While James, who's now a Toyota salesman, will undoubtedly get rejected without her photo, Kinsey shared her own rejection story. "While on Twitter, Kinsey also shared a bit of I auditioned to play Pam. I didn’t get the part. Two months later they called me in for the role of the bitch in accounting. #ShareYourRejection," read the tweet.
And the rest is history.
