You know Aubrey Plaza as April Ludgate on Parks and Recreation. Until February 1, however, the actress is taking her deadpan-style delivery to Newcastle. The beer brand chose Plaza as its spokesperson for a campaign called Band of Brands. In Newcastle's opinion, Super Bowl ads cost way too much money for smaller brands to possibly purchase advertising space. So, why not have a bunch of them come together and share Newcastle's ad space?

Except, if you know Ludgate's character, you can imagine she's a pretty reluctant spokesperson. So, we took her to a bar, played a game of quarters, and asked her a bunch of weird questions. Below, Plaza tells us how Chris Pratt sometimes does her makeup. Oh, and that she may or may not challenge Kenny G to a sax contest.
