Fans are buzzing after Anna Faris, 49, appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show this week alongside Samara Weaving to promote the newest Scary Movie reboot. Some viewers quickly noticed that the actress seemed a little “off,” sparking a wave of concern online. 
During the segment, Faris was energetic and animated, laughing loudly and joking with Kelly as they played the chaotic “What’s Creepin’ Up On Me?” game. But a few viewers noted that she spoke rapidly and occasionally slurred her words, making her hard to understand at times. Comments flooded social media, with fans asking, “Is Anna okay?” and “Why does she seem incoherent?” 
Others defended her, suggesting she was simply nervous or excited to return to the franchise that first made her a household name. Indeed, this appearance marks her official comeback to the series she helped define. Faris starred as the lovable Cindy Campbell in the first four Scary Movie films, and now returns in 2026 alongside original co-stars Regina Hall, Marlon Wayans, and Shawn Wayans, more than a decade after Scary Movie 5’s poorly received release. 
The reboot also brings back fan favorites like Cheri Oteri, Dave Sheridan, Chris Elliott, Lochlyn Munro, and Jon Abrahams. The film shattered franchise records, earning approximately $55 million domestically and $105.5 million worldwide during its opening weekend, outpacing competitors such as Masters of the Universe. 
Despite the fan concern, the segment highlighted Faris’ quirky energy—a hallmark of her public persona—and her excitement about reuniting with the original cast. The Wayans brothers’ return to the creative helm after 13 years adds another layer of nostalgia and intrigue for fans. 
Whether the actress was merely caught in the whirlwind of a high-energy promo or something more unusual, viewers can relive her appearance and judge for themselves.
