Melissa McCarthy Says Living in Australia Has Changed Her 'Entire Concept of Being'

Melissa McCarthy is opening up about her new life.

The Bridesmaids actress and comedian is on the cover of InStyle‘s April 2021 issue.

Here’s what she had to say…

On being a comedian in a year of hardships: “You don’t have to like what I do, or you don’t have to like comedy. But you need to be able to laugh at something. Ben [Falcone] and I talk about it a lot from the perspective of ‘Will this make somebody happy? Can some­body at the end of an 18-hour ER shift just check out and laugh for, you know, an hour?’ It’s the one thing we can try to do, and we try to do our best. I’m not smart enough to know how to purify the water, but I can throw myself down a flight of stairs and hope that it lets someone forget their troubles.”

On living in Australia while filming projects: “It has changed my entire concept of being. Everything can feel like home. I am connected to Australia in a way that I didn’t anticipate. I could very easily live here for the rest of my life. I’m in love with it. Everyone is so chatty. I’m a Midwestern gal who lives in L.A., where no one wants to talk to you. And here I’ll be in the grocery store, and I can’t go down a single aisle without talking to somebody. It’s won­derful. I come home, and I will have had 15 conversations.”

On the 10-year anniversary of Bridesmaids: “That film in­stilled the best lesson of you just have to let things be what they are, because it wasn’t sup­posed to work like that. Annie [Mumolo] and Kristen [Wiig] wrote it, and they had never written anything before. And it was like, ‘We’re going to let your weirdness ride.’ And people on set were laughing and crying full-out in almost ev­ery scene because everybody felt so free and there wasn’t a lot of pressure. Certainly, no­body thought it was going to be a game changer. The fit was just perfect.”
