I'm pretty sure it's her tone, together with the reaction of the other people in the studio that makes this feel like taking pride in ignorance.

But apart from that, an actor being asked about a scene they acted and reacting with "I don't know what that is. I don't know, I don't have a clue, I don't care" is a bit ridiculous. Everyone realizes that the phone and its messaging software is completely irrelevant to the movie, but we are used to great actors taking pride in details no layman would notice. Imagine a James Bond actor stating he doesn't care about the watch he wore, or Keanu Reeves mistakenly wearing the wrong type of belt for a suit and answering with "I don't know anything about belts, and I don't care"

I want to watch the Wick series only because I heard about how Keanu went all in training for the long cut fight scene choreography. I don't know if it is a carefully maintained image but he seems like someone who gains success but manages to still care about the right stuff and not care about shallow fluff.

Would "they told me to type on thing and I typed on thing" be any better ?

The phone type is completely irrelevant to the plot tho, could be typing on 3210 and it wouldn't make difference.

She's not an actor, she's a pop star. The watch James Bond wears is often considered an integral part of his character, but the internal part of a pop star is dancing/singing, not some piece of software that was used for a segment for a couple of mere seconds. That'd be like accosting a Bond actor for not knowing the name brand of a pen he randomly picks up to scribble a note really quickly - eg, stupid. Give her shit for not knowing the name of a dance move, fine, but this spreadsheet thing? Chill.

Ah damn, integral*, not internal.

Speak for yourself. I'm not used to any actors taking great pride in details no layman would notice. I 100% expect a James Bond actor to have no clue what watch they asked him to wear and same for Keaneau Reeves and a belt.
