Kylie & Brie Larson on Kelce Sisters Salon Mishap, Jason NFL Fine Pep Talk & Marvel Madness | Ep. 41

This football season, whether you're buying tickets, booking travel, or shopping for team gear, protect your pocket with Visa. Tapping to pay without checking which card? Not a pro move. Tapping to pay with Visa? That's a pro move. Visa runs more than 500 security checks to help identify fraud before transactions are approved, so you can focus your defensive energy on other things. Like defending your nachos from your hungry, hungry husband. That might not be a pro move, but paying with Visa is. Visa, the most trusted way to pay for football fans everywhere. From the studio that brought you WandaVision. I was an Avenger, but I'm not a hero anymore. The Vision returns for the final chapter of the groundbreaking trilogy. That family wasn't real. You sure about that? I had a father called Vision. How is this possible? Why am I losing my mind? Don't miss the two-episode premiere of Marvel Television's Vision Quest. Nothing. Bonds a family together quite like Mortal Jeopardy. Now streaming only on Disney+. Not gonna lie, oftentimes when I wear my hair in a bun, much like this bun, I am told by Wyatt that she does not like my hair like this. What a way to start the day. Let's get this podcast started. Welcome back to Not Gonna Lie, a wave original brought to you by Skittles. Taste the rainbow. Or taste the broken rainbow. Get it? I'm your host, Kylie Kelsey. I know a lot of detailed facts about tigers. If you don't know what chuffing is, look it up. Whatever you do, don't call me a wag. And I'm a big fan of Japanese maples. A lot of people caught on to the fact that I changed my Instagram bio. And let's really address why. Because some of you motherf**kers can sniff the truth. And some of you motherf**kers can sniff the truth. Can sniff that sh** faster than I can even explain. I don't think people get notifications for people changing their bio, but maybe they do. And that's crazy sauce. I put it in my bio because I thought it was funny and I love my husband. Coming up on today's episode, I'm going to answer a few more of your questions for me in a brand new edition of Ask Me Some Things, featuring items in our house I have to hide from our kids. Plus, for this week's doom scroll, I have a fellow NFL wife's take on celebrating touchdowns. The key? Without getting fined. Can't wait to talk about it. After that, I'm going to be joined by, you guessed it, another guest that I have no business speaking to. We have Captain Marvel herself, Academy Award winning actress Brie Larson. But first, I got to shout out our real one comments of the week. On our last episode, I said I was done with family Halloween costumes after the Little Mermaid fiasco of 2020. I said I was done with the Little Mermaid fiasco of 2020. This year, we might just have three Elsas, to which at Dora Winifred responded, hear me out, dot, dot, dot, six Elsas. Honestly? I'm so into that. I'm so into that. If I could get Ellie to not be Anna, I'd do it in a heartbeat. But I can't have five Elsas and one Elsa. I can't Anna. Finn is going to be honest that we have two and two, two Annas, two Elsas. That's the plan, though. Who knows? Next up, I was featured in a behind the scenes clip from the other podcast. If you haven't seen it, Queen Emma, the clip, please. How's my wife calling me? Hello, darling. Oh, I meant hello, Kylie. Darling. Sorry. Hello, darling. How things go for you today? What are you doing for dinner? I'm eating some type of animal carcass. You must still be on the podcast. I am. A couple of the top comments from the real ones and the 92 percenters. Someone said, Jason, hello, darling. Kylie, ew, darling. Ha ha. Love her. Guys, I don't know how many times I have to say it. Darling, hon, honey, dear, baby, babe. No. And he doesn't call me darling on a regular basis. I want to point that out. That is that was. Very out of the ordinary. The other main takeaway from this clip, Kylie is all of us. Someone else just freaking decide on dinner. I do. I thought it was very funny reading these comments because I didn't scroll very far, but I found that the common theme was that everyone is exhausted. Every every spouse. Every. Anyone in a relationship is exhausted by the question, what's for dinner? What do you want for dinner? I didn't even know there are so many people. She has decision fatigue. How cool would it be if you ask someone, what do you want to eat? And they looked you straight down the barrel and said, I want a salad from this store. I want a pizza from that place. I want a cheesesteak from you know where. That'd be so cool. Moving on. Let's get right into doom scroll the week. First up on doom scroll commanders wide receiver, Chris Moore's wife, Toria Moore is showing her husband touchdown dances that will not get him fined. And I love that so much. Queen Emma, the clip, please. It says showing my husband touchdown celebrations. He should have done instead of launching the ball and getting fined for those of you who don't know. In the NFL. There are so many times that you will get fined. Sorry, NFL. I'm telling all your secrets. One thing you are not allowed to do is launch the ball as a celebration. You're not allowed to do that. I don't think you're allowed to launch anything into the stands specifically. Not allowed. So. As his better half. Toria was just trying to offer up better options. To. Show excitement and celebration that will not require you to have payroll deduct. I do not personally know Toria, but. That's a good idea, girl. I love that idea. I used to. My husband as an offensive lineman was not coming into scoring opportunities and therefore was not often partaking in touchdown celebrations. Or. He was not a part of the team. He was a part of the team. Okay. For those of you who might not understand the concept of a millennial pause, I'm going to give you the best explanation that I can give, which is a very broken understanding of what the millennial pause is. But considering I often do it, apparently maybe I'm the perfect person to explain this. Uh, it is when you start recording a video and you don't immediately start your words that you sort of take an extra second to think it might be dead space. It might be an, um, it might be a, so I was thinking all of these would fall under the realm of millennial pause. Basically it's a, an amount of time at the beginning of a video that we are not providing any information that we have not hurried to the point, which seems, seems rushed. That's the best I've got. That's, that's my understanding. If I'm wrong, fuck me. Can we keep that? I was actually informed by some of my former field hockey players that I am known to millennial pause. So thanks girls. I appreciate you. I'm going to start doing it on purpose and I'm going to start doing it for an extended amount of time. A very long pause. I feel like Gen Zers having a problem with our pause or our lack of, of a sense of urgency in how we start our videos. Is there need for like, as fast as we can do it, chill out, chill out, chill out. Take a deep breath. You don't need us to be speaking like a chipmunk. Chill out. We'll get there. God, haven't you heard of enjoy the journey? Enjoy it. Sit down. If you don't want to stick around, guess what? I'm going to start millennial pausing. I'm going to start. First of all, I'm going to start making TikToks again. No, I'm not, but we can pretend. It's going to be the equivalent of like, Hey, so when you guys go to get like, when you're about to get your period and then the, the women will start the video that way. And then all of a sudden it, they pause and they're like, okay, did the guys leave? Are you, is it just, just the women are left? Right? Okay. So here's what we need to talk about. It's going to be one of those, but with a Gen Z pause, good luck. If you listen to me on 1.5 speed, you might want to bump it to two times speed. I listen, I listen. If I, I can't even say I listen. I don't listen to myself. If I were to listen to myself, I listened to it. I just started, I just started a new. I just started another podcast that if I'm going to listen to a podcast is the podcast that I would spend my time listening to old depths. If you will, I listened to it on 1.2. So you should probably speed me up to like a good 1.5. I mean, that's it for doom scroll the week, moving on a addition of places. Kylie has some business being, I have zero business being in most places, but sometimes there are places that based on my experience or qualifications, I should be there. So I think that my years of playing slash coaching field hockey and the fact that I'm from here doing a field hockey clinic in our area is probably a place I have a little business being not a lot, but some, uh, yep, that's right. This past weekend, I put on my second youth field hockey clinic. My first one was stick with Casey and this one was right here in Philly. So it was stick with PHL or stick with Philadelphia. We were able to partner with long strength, which is a sporting goods store here, just outside of Philadelphia. They are the people that I was going to for my entire life for my sports equipment. I was asked to sign field hockey balls, shirts, sticks. Um, this feels ridiculous. It feels silly. I have no business signing field hockey stick. Don't anybody. I, at some point I literally told one of those children, this just decreased the value of your stick. So there's that. Oh, that was a quick head snap. Did you see that? Oh, Hey girl. Okay. Let me feed this child real quick. Mama, mama, mama, mama. You want to come sit in the chair? Fine. Don't, you know, she plays in the corner in the kitchen and says, I'm on the podcast. Who do you talk to on dad's podcast? Uncle Travis, mom and dad are. I smoochy kiss daddy. All right. You can do the eyebrows real quick. Then you're going to go back. Can you wink? Nice. Nice. That was actually very good. Okay. I love you. Hey, you didn't even look at me when you said you got to look at people you're talking to. Listen, if you want more hockey content, just, you know, stay tuned. I wonder what that means. Okay. Next up, let's get to the segment where I answer real questions from the real ones. Otherwise known as ask me some things because ask me anything needed boundaries. Okay. First question from Brandy Burkhart. Kylie, if a child knocks on your door on Halloween, dressed as a Cowboys football player or cheerleader, do you give them candy or tell them to get off your lawn? Here's the deal. If we receive trick or treaters, which we do not hypothetically speaking. I would give every other kid a piece of candy and then I would march my ass to the kitchen. And get a box of raisins and drop that right in that bag. Did I hesitate? Guys, raise your kids right. Okay. I don't know what that's. That's the best advice I can give you. I'm not going to tell you how to parent your kids. But this is where I draw the line. So apparently I'm going to give them. Either raisins or nothing. Ooh, maybe like an old avocado. Next ask me some things question is from Emily R. That's actually exactly how it's written. Ask me some things question. Is there anything you have to hide from the girls, specifically scissors? And which one of the older three would try to cut their hair or their sister's hair first? This is a very easy question. So easy. Things that have to be hidden from my children. Surprisingly enough, not scissors. What I do have to be careful of is any type of writing or drawing utensil. It's everywhere. It's on the couch. It's on the wall. It's on the floor. It's on the table. And guys, this is like, I know there's going to be a population of people that hear this and say, well, that's because you don't him, him, him, him, him, him, him, him, him, him. Kiss my ass. Kiss my fat ass. I've tried everything. We've sat in timeout. We have had to scrub it up ourselves. We have had to, I mean, just now they go on lockdown. That's our, that's our compromise. To be fair, they are newly sick. They are newly sick. They are newly sick. Four and two. Their reasoning and decision-making, not the best, but for some reason, anything that is smooth to go on your human body, head to fucking toe. It is absurd. It's insane. The minute they get a silky cry, crayon, uh, watercolor, paint, any paintbrush with even a hint of color left in it. Full face paint, a full, full face of paint. It's bananas. I've had enough. I've had enough. markers striped like a tiger. Suddenly they're tigers. Ridiculous. I'm out. You know who will be my child that cuts hair? And I know it without a doubt. And I feel like I could millennial pause this and everyone can say it together. Bennett, Luell, and Kelsey. She is my most mischievous child. Jason and I are in for it. That does it for Ask Me Some Things, Real Ones. This is an official call to action. Please send all the Halloween-related questions you can think of. I'm going to be joined by a very special guest next week, and we want all the questions. You can also ask about the family after wax care, being married to me, Japanese maples, Queen Emma. I think I'm making it too obvious who this guest is. Too bad. Comment here on YouTube, on Spotify, or tag us on any social media, at NGLwithAnimation.com. We're going to answer a bunch of your questions next week. Coming up, Brie Larson is joining me, but first, Skittles! Real Ones, if you're a Type C parent or a Type C person like me and sometimes need reminders for everything on your to-do list, consider this your official reminder to buy that candy for your trick-or-treaters. Yep. I also recommend adding Skittles to your bowl. And if you've already got your Skittles and you're looking for even more Skittles-related fun, you've got to check out their new TikTok series. That's just a doom-scroll away called Ghost Roommate. That's right. Skittles is flipping the script on the whole spooky angle and instead hit us with a 90s-style sitcom. Ghost Roommate follows two roommates, one human, one ghost, as they navigate life, Halloween, and their love for Skittles. And my favorite part about each episode, it's only six seconds long. In my opinion, some of the best internet videos of all time are six seconds long. R.I.P. Vine. Fans can binge watch the full season on TikTok in 63 seconds. Only way it could have been better? If it was 62 seconds. Check out Ghost Roommate and grab some Skittles this Halloween. Sitcom the rainbow. Taste the rainbow. This episode is sponsored by. Dude, that was a yell. That was a Jason yell. That was so Jason coded, it wasn't even funny. Wow. This episode is sponsored by Liquid IV. We're definitely in our busiest season here at my house. I'm coaching field hockey, doing the podcast, and I'm doing the podcast. Jason's broadcasting. We've got all sorts of events coming up, and to do all of that, I just need to be focused and hydrated, which is where Liquid IV comes in clutch. I love Liquid IV because it tastes great. And I'll tell you what, specifically when I was pregnant, water isn't always going to hit the spot. It isn't. And that is one of the times in my life where Liquid IV has just hit. Also, I took my first hot Pilates class over the summer. I don't know if you've heard of it, but it's a really good class. I took my first hot Pilates class over the summer. I don't know think I've ever had my thirst quenched the way I did when I took a sip of my water bottle in that class, and it was Liquid IV.

She's the Academy Award-winning actress you know from Captain Marvel, Avengers Endgame, 21 Jump Street, Room, Trainwreck, and of course the classics like the Disney Channel original, Right on Track, and 13 Going on 30, where she was one of the six chicks. Now she's got a brand new cookbook called Party People, and she's officially not going to lie. Brie Larson, welcome to the show. Thank you for having me. Oh, I'm so excited to talk to you. I mean, really throwing it back all the way to the Disney Channel days. And thank you for doing that. I don't think that it would be appropriate not to list that. Oh, it was a really big deal for me, honestly. It was like my first big actor transformation because I had to dye my hair brown. It was a big deal. I love that so much. You're like, I have to dye my hair for a movie. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I love that. I did and really understanding what a Disney Channel original movie was to us. That's a huge fucking deal. Like it really is. No. And you know, I auditioned for to just get right into it. You know, I was auditioning for these DCOMs every month and I was not getting them. Is it so crazy to think back to when you were that young because you it really how old were you when you guys filmed that movie? I don't know. I want to say like 14. But no, maybe that's not even true. Maybe I was younger. Maybe I was 13. I was young. And and even just now recalling that and remembering you getting to dye your hair for a part and getting to sort of step into that role. Mm hmm. That has to be such a cool memory to be able to be like, yeah, I got to go to my friends be like my hair a different color. Yeah, it's because I got was cast. I got cast. No, of course. I mean, I there's so much about when I was younger and auditioning that is so clear to me because there's such deep, visceral memories. Like I think the way that I felt so much pain when I didn't get something and so much excitement when I did. It's more like I grew up like hopefully we've learned how to like balance these things out a little bit more. When I think back, it's like, I desired getting the new Nintendo console. Like, so hard. And I desired getting a job that was like a Disney Channel movie. Like those are the things that like I would get heartburn at 12 years old because I desired so much. I think I'm still seeking this thing that I experienced as a child, like wanting something so badly and not always getting to be in charge of when you got that, you know? Now, in terms of not knowing your fate, you knew your fate when you wrote this cookbook. You had to know that people were going to love it, people. I don't party people cookbook. I know I'm dealing with imposter syndrome every day. I am. It's not like just because something matters to you, you know that it's going to matter to everybody else. But I feel I feel very confident that what's cool about a book is that it lives on in a different way than like a movie that has like a box office opening. Like it's more about this thing that gets to live in bookstores and people can find it forever now. And I think that what it says, matters and it matters beyond me and Courtney. And so I'm very excited for it to come out. I would like to congratulate you on it. Everyone should go get this book. I say this all the time, but I famously love to hide in a corner and sometimes even at parties, I just want to like sort of melt into the wall. I saw that you also used to not be a party person, but obviously releasing a cookbook called party people. Give me some tips here how we can move in the direction of being more of a party person. Yeah, being a party person doesn't mean that you want to go to the club in Las Vegas because like I'm still not even that type of party person. But there's all kinds. We need people in the clubs in Las Vegas so that I don't have to, you know, and so in a world where we're all party people, my vibe is more like, I like to host at my house. I like games. I like Lego parties. And I like, I like to host at my house. I like games. I like Lego parties. And I like, I like to host at a party that's just two, like you and your best friend, just like eating and bragging and complaining about the things that are happening. It's more about recognizing that it's okay to not want to go to every single party. And it's okay to be nervous about throwing or hosting. Parties should be the place in a world where we are all stressed out and we're overworked. And we are like over, um, overstimulated that parties can be a place where we can just drop all of it. Part of it is like, I have so many people in my life that want to be around friends and community, but they're worried that their house isn't pretty enough or their apartment is too small. And I'm like, no, no, celebrate your life. And all of these things allow this to be a place where you're allowed to be free. We don't get to have the same free every aspect of our life, but with a party, we should. I feel like you just described the type of party, maybe the only type of party I want to be at. The idea of like the imperfections of it are part of the best part of the part. Like that's so that's, that's a warm hug. And I want that party. Yes, of course you do. And whether you're attending that party or you're hosting that party, that's, I think where we can get to this life is like, just to drop our shoulders a little bit and say, whatever it is that we're afraid of, we don't have to. And, um, you know, people do the thing where they're like, it's my birthday. Happy birthday. Like, don't, don't, don't act like it's my birthday. And I'm like, I want to get into that. Like, what, what is it about us that has made us then go? I don't want to acknowledge that I'm alive, that I exist, that I've done so many highs and lows and everything is we're celebrating everything, getting a pair of jeans. I can get down with a party for that. Yeah. Can you imagine please come over? I found the most incredible pair of jeans. They were on sale. You'd be like, girl, I'm, And, like, you hang on to it. up the jeans and everybody's like bow down to these glorious jeans like everything i just feel like when in doubt you should be having a party and you're always going to be happier and it's i'm talking about the type of party too where you leave and you feel like your cup was filled up not you feel like you left drained i want you to know for certain that i'm going to get this book i am going to find the best pair of jeans i've ever found and then i'm going to throw a party about it yeah and i am going to make the photo op everybody taking a picture with my ass looking bomb in a new pair of jeans that is right yes i get it now i'm so in on this uh now you also did the high heel challenge while posing with the book and i've seen so many of these and every time my question is how i don't know either okay i thought it was an optical illusion and so somebody was like you should do this and i was like haha some of these were wild there's somebody on heels on top of their like dancing with ours trophy i don't even understand it was a disco ball but i did it on two cans of beans that i had in my pantry so good it's so it's like the most viral thing i've ever done in my life which i don't know how i feel about but i just love it i just love it's you your book and your beans yeah literally two cans of butter beans that i had in my pantry i did it very impressive thank you thank you now right around the same time that you did the disney channel movie you also signed a record deal uh-huh and opened for jesse mccartney on his beautiful soul tour that is true very good journalism i did what was your reaction to hearing you were going on tour with jesse mccartney i was out of my mind are you kidding i was so excited i was going on tour i had a tour bus that's like stuff of dreams like that that part of my life this like brief part of my life where i was pop star is like such a fever dream and so bizarre and such a weird detour that's so funny and weird and it's just bizarre the whole thing is just bizarre that the music industry is it wasn't for me it always felt truthful you tried it you gave it i mean you gave it such a good effort that you ended up with a tour bus yeah exactly that's a full commit that was a commit it was a commit and it was great and honestly impressive and there's that too yeah it's funny i think it's really funny and i love i love music but i like seriously love pop music like still to this day it's like i think it's one of the highest art forms to be able to tell like that's part of what i seek in my own work i just do it through character work but like to have universal messages that are told in a way that's accessible to people in a way that's like clear but abstract enough for people to make it their own that's such a gorgeous art form that's similar and also completely different from mine and so like all the pop stars those are my heroes those are my gods i would not be here without j-lo you just reminded me about the red carpet clip when you are in the middle of an interview or ending your interview and j-lo comes up oh yeah yeah and i cried i cried so hard immediately i can't deal with j-lo i feel like your reaction was what everyone else assumes their reaction would be had they been graced with the presence of the glowing j-lo like her in front of you it was the perfect it was the perfect of exactly how i feel like most everyone's brain would be if she just glided up those steps towards them and they were just like oh my gosh yeah that's her like she was part of my awakening to myself my mom took me to go see selena in the theaters and i like bawled my eyes out i was like that's what i want to do and so she's such a huge moment for me of where i was like oh that's a job that's what you can do i want to do that and so somehow and all this time of my life i had never been i'd never seen her in person i mean i'm sure there were times we were in the same room but i had never seen her and like to be there with my mom i don't know if in the clip you can see my mom at all but like my mom's crying i kept hearing to my mom she's like i know honey i know like we were both just like you know my childhood me like couldn't believe it that's such a beautiful moment though to be able to to say that to her mm-hmm able to to be able to express your gratitude in being able to be a fan of her and what it meant for your career oh no that's the best i mean i still i still am in the habit like writing an email to people when they do something whether it's music or a painting or a movie that i feel like really gets me i'll write a note thank them i actually think unless unless you're somebody who's like i don't know even even artists you have to like be perpetually on tour i think to to be in relation with human people saying thank you for me a movie comes out it's hard for me to grapple with what that success if it is success what that even looks like because you're not in dialogue with people the movies are like out in theaters i'm like hiding at home those conversations are happening independent of of you they're happening removed you sometimes miss that something that you did mattered to somebody and so even for j-lo there's moments where she has self-doubt i am where i am because of that to tell her that and also like how amazing it is to be able to say that like artist to artist like now here we are like walking the same floor like that's so cool that's such a kind thought to be the type of person who wants to share their gratitude because i think you're absolutely right it is a a feeling that it is i can only imagine that it is overwhelmingly positive and also few and far between when you reach a certain level of success that people probably just assume that you are so secure and so happy with everything that you wouldn't still appreciate those those finer moments of gratitude that you were able to express to her absolutely absolutely and about the artistry too like for the art it's one thing when like a when you person can inspire somebody which you know her work ethic does that too but i also um i also love it's part of why like as somebody who's quite introverted and i get nervous and i like my privacy and i i'm not like the greatest when it comes to being like the public person that i am but i found that i really get a lot out of these like meet and greet and fan events which i started doing a couple years ago because you get to then have that face-to-face i mean you learn like what a character did for somebody and how it moved them in their life or shifted because i'm going through my own stuff in my life too for anyone unfamiliar with my minivan saga let me quickly give you the spark notes here first i was vehemently against driving one but then i realized i was about to have four children five and under and therefore four car seats my husband wanted one my kids

You sure about that? Nothing bonds a family together quite like Mortal Jeopardy. We were talking about throwbacks, and one of the throwbacks I would love to bring, up to you, is 13 going on 30, because it's a movie that I deeply enjoy. You were one of the six chicks. Do people still bring up this movie, or am I the only one? No, people do. I think it was one of those things that people used to bring interviews when, because it'd be one of the top credits that would come up if you looked me up, just because that movie's so popular. But like, I think I only have one line. I just go like, yeah. And so we're also nostalgic. And so like, we're going back and like watching, these movies again. And then it's like, delightfully funny to see, you know, however old I was, 14-year-old Brie in like, this crazy 80s hairdo. It's amazing. And again, I remember feeling so just excited. You've been in so many huge movies ever since, including Captain Marvel, which was actually Marvel's first women-led movie, which is crazy. Mm-hmm. I read you weren't sure if you wanted to take on that role at first. Yeah. Did you ever think you'd be playing a superhero? No. No. No. Because that is unbelievably badass. I didn't think that was part of my path. I thought if I could just do small, interesting, like best friend roles, character roles, I never, ever, ever thought that I would lead a movie. It just felt very clear by how long I'd been auditioning and not getting things that that wasn't my path. But as I was getting in my 20s, I started thinking, well, maybe I started to get interesting roles in indie films in supporting characters. And I was like, well, if I can just do that, that like gives me just enough to pay my bills. And I tended at that time to prefer the supporting roles to the leading roles. I thought they were more interesting. And then Marvel was calling, what the heck? Like, I had gone from the studio system wasn't casting me in anything. They were always like, oh, you can't be it. Because you haven't been in a studio movie. And you're like, what? Like, how? How am I supposed to do this? And so to suddenly be thrust into this, like, incredibly secretive, massive fandom of a world. And after I spoke with the heads at Marvel, I really believed in what the character was. My hesitancy was I didn't think that I, Brie, could handle the fame that came with it. And so I just said, okay, I will, I am going to do this because I know that this character is for me. And I'm meant to do this character. And so as I prepare to play this character, I'm also going to prepare Brie. And it's been great. There's no downside. And I got to do what I felt like was my contribution to that corner of the artistic world. And so it was great. It's amazing to, before this, I was, reading about the transformation you made prepping for Captain Marvel. It's amazing to hear that while that was happening, you were also going through an intense transformation of how you were preparing for that to hit. And two sides of that, it's so amazingly self-aware to recognize, like, I need to do the work to prepare for this excitement. But also to know that, the role that you were about to play was so meaningful. And to a fan base that is so strong and passionate that it was going to hit hard. Yeah. Well, that part, I don't think I could have, I couldn't understand that. Prepared for? Yeah. No, no. That's like, if you've lived your life, basically, an anonymous person that nobody really notices to suddenly being like a thing, you're thrust into a conversation that you're like, oh my gosh, I'm just here. That's not, I'm not part of that conversation. Everybody else can have that conversation. If I ever started to feel overwhelmed, you know, suddenly it's like, I've got a bunch of millions more Instagram followers, whatever, these things that happen. Oh my God, this is so much. And I'd start to, you panic and you're like, oh my gosh, I'm never going to be able to go to the grocery store again. I'm never going to be able to buy my own apples or whatever. And then I go to the grocery store and like, no one cares. The day that Captain Marvel came out, I was on the press tour for it in New York City. We had like a little break in between interviews. I went and took a walk and I went bikini wax. And no one cared. To be clear, I want to be clear because you cut out for a second. You said you went and got a bikini wax? I did. I don't know that there's a more grounding. Let me make sure I can still feel something. Let me make sure I'm not completely numb. Let me get a bikini wax. That was an outstanding thought. Thank you. Thank you. I did discover that my bodyguard was secretly following me the entire time. He's like family to me. He obviously didn't walk into the appointment, but I think knew what building I walked into. So I thought walking around by myself, but I still had that little bit of secret support behind me. So I did have that. But I was free as far as I know. No one cared. That's perfect. Now, while we're talking about transforming for a role, I absolutely love your hair. And I saw that you initially cut it for a play that you were in earlier this year. Is that right? Yeah, I buzzed it off. So now it's just like growing back and it's kind of like in various stages of awkward grow out. But I'm sort of like, that's life. How does it feel? How does it feel? To buzz? I'm so, yes. It's nice. I mean, it's just, you don't realize how much time you spend shampooing and brushing your hair until you buzz it off. It's, was it freeing? Yeah, it was. I mean, I kind of then just got into skincare because I was like, I felt like I had nothing to do anymore. Like I've always been like a shower person. Basically you step in the shower and I'd be like, there's nothing to do in here. I have time on my hands. I had a lot of extra time on my hands. I mean, I stupidly brought with me to London. I brought shampoo and conditioner. It was like, wow. It was great. I mean, it was very freeing and it was also emotional too. It was far more emotional than I thought it was going to be. It was my idea to shave my head. I'm very used to having to do things that are not me and you have to live with them outside of being on set. But the buzzed head was more emotional than I realized being out in the world with a buzzed head has like a lot of different feelings about that. About what that means. And it's a very like aggressive look. So not how I present myself in the world and like, oh geez, I have to like buy new clothes because none of my like dough and prairie dresses make any sense with this buzzed hair. And like, it just, I had to move in this other direction and like, you know, go to dinner with friends with a buzzed head that felt foreign to me in the winter. I was just going to say, how many hats did you buy? Bonnets. I had to do bonnets because you want to like cover everything. Don't really intend to do it again because the grow up process has been, oh, it's so annoying. Hair really grows slow. So the key, the goal here is to grow it out because I do think the pixie looks incredible. I like it. No, I like it. Now that it's like, and now that I can put like a bobby pin in it, I'm like, woohoo, you know, a long ways away from needing a hair tie. But you know, at least I can change it up a little bit. I do like it. But, I've always just, I keep growing my hair until I have to cut it for a job. It's just the simplest. it makes it easier. I don't know what character I'm going to play. And so you just go grow it until someone tells you otherwise. Exactly. Now, uh, my last question for you, I always like to ask my guests about great advice that they have received. What is the best piece of advice for the entertainment industry that you've ever received? Oh my gosh. You know, it's always a funny one cause we don't really go around giving advice. Um, but I would say the thing that I really do live by is something that Sam Jackson says on set all the time. I've done like four movies with him and he's like my bestie. Um, and the thing that he always tells people is he says, uh, don't get in the way of my fun. And I love that. And I realized now how I, how I've approached my work too, which is like, my job is a team sport. I am on a set with a lot of different people come here to have a good time. Don't get in the way of my fun. And I think everybody can have that. You can apply it to life. I think so. I think everybody can say with all the love of my heart, don't get in the way of my fun.
