SQUARESPACE CACHEVERSION=1392228926232@OfficialJLD/Twitter(WASHINGTON) — Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who plays a bumbling vice president on the HBO series Veep, was seated next to her real-life counterpart at the White House State Dinner Tuesday night honoring French President Francois Hollande.

Louis-Dreyfus tweeted a photo of the two — Veep and VP, side-by-side.

 

 

Asked by a reporter what her favorite part of the evening was, Louis-Dreyfus didn’t hesitate: “Look who I’m sitting next to,” she said.

That prompted the vice president to interrupt the conversation: “Hey, stop screwin’ around, she’s my date!” Biden said, according to the pool reporter stationed in the room. He started laughing and added, “Just kidding.”
