Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. With a name like Vayntrub, you can probably guess that Milana has Russian roots. What former Soviet Republic was she born in?

Answer: Uzbekistan

Milana Vaybtrub was born on March 8, 1987, in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, so technically she was born in the USSR. Uzbekistan declared its independence from the Soviet Union on September 1, 1991 and became a member of the Commonwealth of Independent States.

Uzbekistan is located in Central Asia, south of Russia and northeast of Turkmenistan. As the name suggests, the vast majority of people are of the Uzbek ethnicity. While the roots of the Uzbek language are Turkish, it has been influenced by Arabic and Farsi as well.
2. Milana's parents moved to the United States when she was only three. What major metropolitan area did she grow up in?

Answer: Los Angeles

Mila grew up in West Hollywood, and began acting in commercials at age five. Her first commercial was for Barbie dolls.

Uzbek citizens began migrating to the United States beginning in the 1950s, but the migration dramatically increased starting in the 1980s. According to the 2010 census, there were around 40,000 Uzbek-Americans. Besides Milana, other prominent Uzbek-Americans include model/actress Natasha Alam, comedian Rita Volk and tennis player Varvara Lepchenko. Most Uzbek immigrants are located in the New York area.
3. Where did Milana Vayntrub graduate from college?

Answer: UC-San Diego

Milana has a degree in communications from UC-San Diego. She dropped out of Beverly Hills High School when she was a sophomore, but later got her GED. During her time at university, she was active in dramatics, appearing in the Shakespeare play "Pericles" in January 2008.

UC-San Diego is recognized as one of the best public universities in the country. It has had at least 11 Nobel Prize winners on its faculty, including Francis Crick, who discovered the structure of DNA. Given its location right on the ocean, UCSD is a leading center for marine biology research.
4. What improvisational comedy troupe did Milana work with after college?

Answer: Upright Citizens Brigade

The Upright Citizens Brigade was founded in Chicago in 1990, moved to New York in 1996, and opened their theater in Los Angeles in 2005. One of the founders was Amy Poehler of "Saturday Night Live" and "Parks and Recreation" fame.

Many Comedy Central stars got their start at UCB, as well as several cast members on "Saturday Night Live".
5. What is the name of the on-line comedy project that Milana created with Stevie Nelson?

Answer: Live Prude Girls

Stephanie Nelson is Milana's partner in crime for "Live Prude Girls". Their signature project is called "Let's Talk About Something More Interesting" in which they conduct surreal interviews with celebrities. Guests have included Matt Damon and Bob Odenkirk.

When not working with Vayntrub, Stevie appears in the wildy inappropriate children's show parody "Just Shut Up!" as Miss Wendy. She has also done work in both films and television since 2009.
6. Milana got her start on television in 1995, playing a Russian girl named Tatiana on what major drama series?

Answer: ER

Milana played Tatiana, a young girl with AIDS who was abandoned at the hospital. Carol Hathaway (Julianna Marguiles) takes an interest in Tatiana, and considers adopting her. Unfortunately, Carol's past makes her ineligible. It would have been a short adoption in any case, as the little girl died.

Milana can be seen in the episodes "Make of Two Hearts" (1.16), "The Birthday Party" (1.17) and "Sleepless in Chicago" (1.18).

"ER" was created by physician/novelist Michael Crichton in 1994, and focused on a Chicago emergency room. It was one of the most successful television dramas ever, running 15 seasons with 331 episodes.
7. In 2002, what Disney Channel show featured Milana as Cute Burper and Posse Member #1?

Answer: Lizzie McGuire

Milana appeared as Posse Member #1 in "You're a Good Man, Lizzie McGuire" (2.13), as the Cute Burper in "Gordo's Video" (1.30) and as a dancer in "Aaron Carter's Coming to Town" (1.7). The cute burper scene occurs at 5:30, as Lizzie, Gordo and Miranda are watching the hidden camera footage.

"Lizzie McGuire" was Hilary Duff's breakthrough role. It ran on the Disney Channel from 2001 to 2004, and had a total of 65 episodes. The gimmick for the show was having an animated version of Lizzie break the fourth wall and discuss the events taking place on screen.
8. Milana did a series of short films for the comedy website CollegeHumor in which she played a manipulative psycho. What was her character's name?

Answer: Molly

"Molly Made Me" was a three part series in July and August of 2013. In the first, Molly plays mind games with her boyfriend. In the second, she manipulates a waitress. Part 3 features her poor boyfriend Dave again. Jon Mackey played Dave.

Milana did play a camp counselor named Milana as part of the "Camp" series on CollegeHumor. Becky was the character she played in "Lesbian Mountain" (Feb 2012), a parody of "Brokeback Mountain". Libby Gottlieb was her character in "The Student Film Awards" (Jan 2012). Vayntrub made 14 videos for CollegeHumor between 2011 and 2013.
9. When you're starting out, you wind up with some strange acting credits. Three of these are real credits from Milana's resume -- which one is NOT a job she's done?

Answer: Ketchup Zombie in "Zombie Crush"

Milana does play Cute Girl in Bar in "The Hoodie" episode of "The League". She was also the Bad Actress" in the "Like Father, Like Son" episode of "Californication". And she played a sexy vampire in the "Sexy Vampires" episode of "Key and Peele".

Ketchup Zombie is a real credit in "Zombie Crush: A Teenage Zomedy" (2013). I'm giving the full title in case you want to rent it. Hannah Hume was the Ketchup Zombie.
10. Milana took a turn towards the dramatic in 2014. On what Showtime series did she lose her job after stabbing her boss?

Answer: House of Lies

Ms Vayntrub played Christy in "House of Lies". She was in the first two episodes of Season 3, "Wreckage" and "Power(less)", Christy worked for Monica, and when Monica pushed her too far, she stabbed the boss lady in the leg. After being fired, she was led off in handcuffs.

"House of Lies" centers around a management consulting firm run by Don Cheadle. Monica, his ex-wife, is played by Dawn Olivieri. Cheadle won a Golden Globe award for his performance during the first season.
