Julio Torres: ‘When I worked in SNL, I thought Shawn Mendes was an intern’ | Culture

Your first comic show was called My Favorite forms. What is your least favorite form?
A pentagon. Or an octagon. There is a rigidity that I find.
What is the oldest thing you own and why do you still have it?
You know, I was just entering what I am referring to as the forbidden wardrobe in my apartment, which is just a door that I never open. And I saw a photo inside a church that my mother made when she was at college. There is something disturbing, mysterious and evocative in the photo. I like to think about her as a creative young man.
What is the strangest thing you have in your refrigerator right now?
The beautiful and strange reasons that mold creates compared to takeout. Life, the ecosystem, the beings I created, the life I gave.
What is your most controversial opinion of pop culture?
I am a big fan of the film Valerian and the city of a thousand planets, with Cara Delevingne, Dane Dehaan and Rihanna. It’s a film by Luc Besson. Apparently it is the most expensive film in France and it was not well accepted. He came and went, but I liked it very much. I love the show, how big it is, how beautiful it is.
What is your most extravagant meeting with a celebrity?
(This happened) When I worked at the Saturday Night Live. Nobody got angry, nobody was damaged, but I thought Shawn Mendes was an intern. I was like, what is this trainee doing just like walking through the rooms?
I just looked at it and hesitated a little. I think I have been confused by his very confident presence. And my mind went to God, to God, these nyu children think they only own the place. But no, it was the star of that week or anything else. (I only realized) when I saw him through the monitors who felt his musical performance.
What was your largest fashion crime to date?
The short period of my life in which I wanted to wear what everyone else wore.
What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?
I am vegan and I am not adventurous with food, so I don’t think I have ever eaten anything so exciting in my life. As well as when I ate meat, I never moved away from the four main types of meat that most people eat. But I’ve never had eggs. This is the strangest thing I have Never ate.
What is your favorite word?
I like s and I like the V and I like them I like you and I like you. I like the Q. I don’t like P, which is strange because so far my first and only movie (From the problem) has a title with a P.
As if the letter P was a Pokémon, it would be a normal type. It is simple and in a way that is not even comforting. It is not like the A-is also simple, but it is the best scenario for the base. A is like the vibrations of protagonists.
If the animals could speak, who would be the most beautiful?
I think of the procones. They seem very happy to be there and sorry.
Your new show is called Theororias. If I could remove a color from the rainbow, what would it be?
I will not remove any of them. But if I could add a color to the rainbow, I would add clearly. It’s not right there.
