Girls Who’s That Girl? Meet The Office’s Ellie Kemper


Complex’s new weekly feature “Who’s That Girl?” spotlights an up-and-coming woman we’ve got our eye on.

If you watch NBC’s The Office religiously like we do, you’ve probably noticed Dunder Mifflin’s cute new secretary, played by Ellie Kemper. This St. Louis native has had quite a career so far, working with comedy troupes like the People’s Improv Theatre and the Upright Citizens Brigade, writing for smart publications like The Onion and McSweeney’s, and appearing in sketches on various late night shows and websites. And after her breakout Office role, she should be a household name in no time. Watch 5 clips that made us take notice of Ellie Kemper below…

Style How To Dress Like Dwight Schrute from The Office

Dwight Schrute may stand for “Determined, Worker, Intense, Good Worker, Hard worker, Terrific” but, honestly, we believe he’s much more than that. Yes, he may be awkward, a little intense, and even a bit creepy sometimes. He’s definitely not someone you’d want to leave a child around…or anyone at all, actually. But let’s just admit it: One of the reasons we watch The Office is to see what crazy shit he’ll pull next.

So he may be the neurotic creeper at work but have you ever considered adding stylish to Dwight’s description? With the middle-parted hair, thick-rimmed glasses, and impressive sideburns, this budding Parkour professional/Dunder Mifflin superstar definitely has a “unique” fashion sense. After all, his wolf shirt was such a hit with the ladies during Jim & Pam’s wedding that we had to try it for ourselves. Read on to see how to achieve Dwight’s best looks

The sixth season of Entourage kicks off July 12 and word is already spreading about the upcoming celebrity appearances. Cameos from LeBron James, Zac Efron, and Tom Brady are all lined up, but we immediately started getting hyped when we heard Lil Wayne will appear in an episode.

As fans of Entourage, we’re definitely looking forward to seeing Weezy’s role, but our gut tells us that it might be somewhat underwhelming, if only because we’ve already seen so many rappers on the show.

TV The Office Opens New Branch In Russia

Three years after the British comedy phenomenon The Office jumped across the pond to the States, it looks like your favorite collection of sad-sacks is jumping back. Early this morning, it was announced that BBC Worldwide has licensed the format to Russia’s Channel One for 24 episodes of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s brainchild.

Scoff if you want'we were initially cynical about the American version too, but Greg Daniels and NBC won us over with his spot-on casting and hilarious writers. Will the Russian version continue the streak? Watch all 3 incarnations'British, American, and “Japanese”'and think about what hilarity might ensue when Sergei cooks Ivan’s stapler into a borscht-flavored gelatin mold. And let us know how it is on the other side of the Iron Curtain (that’s what she said!).
