Angela Kinsey Career
After relocating to Los Angeles, Kinsey enrolled in improvisation lessons at iO West (formerly known as “Improv Olympic West”) and with The Groundlings. She performed in a two-woman play at iO, worked as an operator at 1-800-Dentist, and appeared in a few comedies for brief one-episode stints. Kinsey provided the voice of “Angela” in two King of the Hill episodes. Angela tried out for the American version of The Office in early 2005, specifically for the position of Pam Beesly, the receptionist. She was asked back for another audition for the role of Angela Martin, which she won after producers informed her that she was “a little too feisty for Pam”. She also starred in two episodes of Monk, “Mr. Monk and the Naked Man” (2007) and “Mr. Monk’s 100th Case” (2008), as Arlene Boras, a killer.
Kinsey was a co-winner of the Daytime Emmy Award for “Outstanding Broadband Program – Comedy” in June 2007 in recognition of her efforts on the webisodes of The Office: Accountants. Kinsey is one of many The Office cast members who starred in the movie License to Wed, which was helmed by Ken Kwapis, who also frequently directed episodes of the show. Updates to Kinsey’s MySpace blog included behind-the-scenes stories about upcoming episodes of the show. She also started planning cast outings from The Office: “I remember thinking, ‘They really enjoy each other,’ when I watched Friends.” In actuality, we hang out.”
She debuted in television commercials for Clairol Nice ‘n Easy as the brand’s new spokesperson in the summer of 2011. She made a guest appearance on New Girl in 2013. Kinsey has been a cast member of the Hulu comedy series The Hotwives since 2014. The show will return for a second season on August 18, 2015. She co-starred with Lance Kinsey in the movie All-Stars that same year.
As Miranda Sings’ mother Bethany in the Netflix Original Series Haters Back Off, Kinsey plays a prominent role. She makes an appearance alongside Steve Little, who plays Miranda’s uncle Jim, and Colleen Ballinger, a popular YouTuber. Although reviews for the first season were largely mixed, Kinsey’s performance won her praise from the critics. Kinsey played Jodi’s mother in the Netflix original movie Tall Girl, which debuted in 2019. Ava Michelle plays Jodi. Kinsey made guest appearances on MTV’s Deliciousness and as the host of Disney+’s Be Our Chef in 2020.

Fisher made an announcement stating that she and Kinsey would “watch an episode of The Office and give you all the stories and behind-the-scenes scoop as well as some BFF banter about our lives.” On October 16, 2019, the first episode of Office Ladies aired. As of May 2023, the podcast continues to air, with guest appearances from the cast and crew of The Office. At the 2021 iHeartRadio Show Awards, the show took home the Podcast of the Year trophy.

Angela Kinsey Haters Back Off
Star of “Haters Back Off,” Angela Kinsey, is finding little sympathy these days as she gains critical and award attention for her portrayal as oppressed Bethany, Miranda Sings’ mother (Colleen Ballinger), on the Netflix series. Recently, Kinsey spoke with Gold Derby (see above) regarding the program’s success as well as her response to receiving reviews that have been among her best in her career, including one from Robert Lloyd (Los Angeles Times), who states that Kinsey “owns the show.” She transforms the show from a bizarre joke to something more elaborate and profound.
A tiny part of Bethany still believes in hope, even though the rest of her has given up. It was really intriguing to me to play because she has a lot of goals—finding a mate, being attractive, and wanting others to notice her—all of which are concurrently happening in this family with her foolish brother and her daughters, who don’t really get her.
Angela Kinsey Your Family or Mine
Oliver and Kelli, the show’s main characters, are living examples of the proverb that goes, “When you marry someone, you marry their whole family.” Claire, played by Angela, is Oliver’s sister-in-law and the wife of his brother Jason (Danny Comden). She takes the brunt of her in-laws’ taunts poorly.
