Move over, Lights Camera Jackson. Seriously, move all the way over and do not block the path of Lindalee Rose, the eight-year-old Junior Ghostbuster and Red Carpet Reporter who has become a YouTube star for the adorable way she interviews the stars of films like Frozen, Muppets Most Wanted, and now Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters. A lot has been said about the stupid and even really terrible controversies surrounding Feig’s female-driven reboot of the 1984 comedy classic, but you’d have to be a heartless Gozer to watch Rose at work in these red carpet interviews with celebrities and stars and not realize how much this film might mean to young girls everywhere.
At the very least, from the professional reporting aspect, she is already way better than most adults who ask questions on the red carpet. I mean, she met Ray Parker Jr. and didn’t just scream uncontrollably like I would. The guy’s a music icon and created arguably the most important soundtrack song of all-time.
Perhaps the best part of Rose’s Ghostbusters work came in her interview with Kate McKinnon, as it was so good that it earned its own video. McKinnon has already earned rave reviews for her performance in the film, but she doubles down on the awesomeness with her tiny counterpart. The moral of the story is: Let’s make McKinnon the biggest star in the world, please.
