Diplo is held as one of dance music's most respected icons, with a resume that speaks for itself. However, his success in the music world does not prevent him from having to deal with awkward interviews. In actuality, it seems that it makes him more vulnerable to them. Back in May, Diplo found himself stuck in an awkward interview with DJ Vick One. Relive the awkwardness below.

Okay, that one may not have been genuinely awkward. But don't worry, this next one certainly makes up for it. When Diplo and "the other two guys that make up Major Lazer" stopped by the iHeartRadio tent at Lollapalooza for an interview with the station's own interviewer, Kennedy, overwhelmingly awkward tension arose... and hilarity ensued (as soon as the interview began).

Just look at her... you can tell she's up to no good as soon as the video begins.

Kennedy stumbles right out of the gate with a joke that Jillionaire did not find the humor in, and it was all downhill from there. 6 and a half minutes of tension you can cut with a knife is what follows. At one point she even asks who the most annoying person they've worked with in the last 2 years is, to which Diplo promptly replies is, in fact, Kennedy from iHeartRadio.

If you're the sort of person that gets a kick out of those chills you get down your spine when someone you're really embarrassed for someone, then this video is for you. Check out the full interview below, if you dare.

Jeez... can't Wes catch a break?
