‘Sex Lives of College Girls’ Star Pauline Chalamet on That ‘Mortifying’ Sex Toy Scene: ‘I Was Red in the Face’

Emiliana Betancourt SPOILER ALERT: This article contains spoilers from Season 3, Episode 3 of “The Sex Lives of College Girls,” now streaming on Max.

Pauline Chalamet’s character Kimberly in “The Sex Lives of College Girls” is no stranger to severely humbling experiences. She is endearingly naive and well-intentioned, but sometimes her overeagerness to do good leads her to some hilariously cringe-worthy scenes.

In the third episode of Season 3, “Four to a Suite,” there is a particularly awkward scene with a vibrating dildo in a backpack that would make most viewers want to turn off their TVs just to avoid the secondhand embarrassment.

Chalamet admits she too felt this way while filming. This season, Kimberly starts seeing a very attractive bisexual student at Essex and feels anxious that she might not be adventurous enough to meet his needs, so she goes to a sex shop.
