Watch: Rachel Bloom Gives Every Pop Culture Topic a Song Title

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend's Rachel Bloom does it all. Really. The star of The CW series is also its co-creator and executive producer. And writer. And songwriter. See? She does all of it.

When E! News visited the set of the critically acclaimed comedy, we couldn't resist testing Bloom's song-writing prowess. After all, she's given us numbers such as "Sex With a Stranger" and "Heavy Boobs," so how would she handle a rapid-fire game of celebrity/pop culture happenings? Like a pro, naturally.

Not only did the Golden Globe winner give us the song titles for happenings like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's divorce, Bloom instantly knew what type of song they'd be.

"It would be an intense German operatic song about how this is the worst thing to have happened—and Brad and Angie won't participate at all," Bloom told E! News.

And what about the return of Gilmore Girls?

"It would be another song of me singing under a spotlight," she said, "‘Am I the Only Person Who Has Never Seen Gilmore Girls?'"

Be sure to watch the video above to get her take on more pop culture happenings, like the all-female Oceans 8, The Walking Dead season seven premiere, Justin Bieber storming off the stage, her Golden Globe win and more.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend airs Fridays, 9 p.m. on The CW.
