Maya Rudolph on Body Evolution and Binding Her Boobs

Her love for style was heavily influenced by her late mother, soul singer Minnie Riperton. "My mom was badass in terms of the clothing department. She had these cool dresses from the '40s," Rudolph explains. "My high school didn't have a dress code. And I basically never wore the same thing twice. I was experimenting. If I found a sailor hat in the theater, the next day I was wearing it to school. Pretty in Pink did a number on me."
Unfortunately, however, a lot of her roles aren't heavily focused on the style side of things. For example, that one time she played President Barack Obama and he called her out on her suit: "They got me, like, a boy's suit [and] I bound my boobs," she recalls. "I was waiting to go on. Obama walked up behind me. I said, 'How do I look?' And he started laughing. Then he said, 'Well, I don't wear a three-button suit.' I was like, 'Ha ha ha… Like, cool guys wear two buttons?'"
She continues, "But he was charismatic and handsome as f--k. And tall! I was instantly won over by his baby-brown eyes." Aren't we all, though?
