Yeah, you know what you get between 13 and 30? Boobs. Boobs. Boobs. You can fill out this card. very small actually can i tell you something i loved that moment because i was just like maybe that means one day i will get boobs to fill out a dress they never came i'm still waiting but it was like that was my best i've tried my best you mean you're just you're pumping i know you've been pregnant i gave my best chance yeah naturally to get some boobs and still we're waiting we're just we're just i'm so patient i'm still waiting so we'll see um where does the character of jenna rink rank on your characters that you played i mean she gosh i mean she's one or two she's right up there yeah yeah because how magical i got to i just remember coming up with things in the moment and playing so much um it had there was so much there was so much joy in the creation of her and of that set in general so yeah she's up there jenna rink um sydney bristow's you know gotta be she might be number one just because she changed not just she changed my life because people cared it was the first thing i ever did that people really cared about but more than that she gave me this sense of self and confidence because i had never um i i had always i had such girl next door energy that i'd never had a swagger and she made me have a swagger and i think it's really important for young women to find recognize and know how to use their own swagger i love that um i have so many favorite scenes from the movie but i think one people probably remember the most is you in the dress the boobs dress uh-huh could you still do the dance first of all yeah you remember the moves i've had to look at the moves i i could do it if i had i'm not gonna ask you because i don't i'm not bless you first of all wouldn't put you on the spot like that there was a point in my life where everyone was like i know what you can do when you get onto this talk show do the thriller dance like for a very long time and i was like oh my gosh i'm never gonna but then it does go away and now it's been long enough that it's sweet again yes um but yeah i could i could give you your basic love it now we had um caleb is a former guest and friend of the show and he's been a fan of the show for a long time and he's been a fan of the show for a long time um caleb heron and his not gonna lie was that he thinks that we should bring back flash mobs i love flash mobs did they go away i think for a little while they have i think i'm gonna use your word for you i think they're a little cringe i think they're cringe i think most people would say they're cringe and by people i mean young people i think they are cringe for the youth yes the youths if you will youth but i i tear up i mean somebody pulls out a tuba and i got a tear i get a little sparkle behind my eyes and it's a tear i love love it don't even start with like there's their little cheers yeah levels little cherub kids a pie oh yeah somebody has a violin oh done done yeah i just i really i think we should probably bring it back i had a flash mob for me once did you this is the kind of flash mob that i even there were no cameras nobody's ever seen it yes it was at a restaurant i have um a couple of friends that do things for my birthday and i don't know i think they try to rattle me frankly and so and did they there we were having a lovely meal yes and they pulled they pulled out a bad replica of that dress the thriller dress sure um suzy de santo was the costume designer we've been friends and colleagues for 20 some years since then and so there are a lot of bad mock-ups i they told me to put it on over what i was wearing and they were like we just want to see and i did didn't think anything of it and then first mistake somebody started playing i don't even remember if it was thriller if it was something else anyway somebody started playing music and suddenly everyone in the restaurant slowly got up and started dancing and they all knew what they were doing and i just was like great this is a great show i'm going to do this i will dance with you no problem so that's amazing yeah isn't that fun and i love that there's no video evidence yeah that's amazing i'm into that i do i do think that's a hot take that maybe we should bring back flash mobs but we shouldn't just do it for clicks we should do it for the joy that you feel in your heart being involved how about that yeah i i have i have a not gonna lie okay i'm not gonna lie i think that whenever there's like a singing telegram i love where this is going goes on too long absolutely goes on too long i think if if somebody shows up to your house give me a verse a chorus repeat the chorus if there's a great bridge toss it in there yes thank you can i tell you where this spills over into a more i would say universal experience because i have never received a singing uh telegram whatever you would call that i have not yet feel free not to send me one not asking for one um but where this spills over i just spoke to someone who recently got married and i gave them the tip of have you talked to your dj about making sure that you are not expected to dance the entire song thank you because similar thing you get about halfway through and you're like how many verses are dancing in front of kind of left a lot yes yeah yeah that's a good one yeah that's a good one yeah that's a good one that's important it's that's very important and this is a way that we're helping educate the world yes don't stick around for longer than you need to in an awkward situation yeah if there's music involved cut it short cut it short pick the hot spot and get out i love nobody knows unless you're from west virginia you don't know all of take me home country roads do you know it's funny they played that as the last song at my wedding it's a great song i have no idea why because you're a lucky woman is that why yeah i looked at my husband and i said did you request this and he said nope and i said okay and then we just everyone sang it everyone sang it you are welcome my state says you are blessed we've blessed you thank you for that uh luckily for us 13 going on 30 super fans uh you actually brought back the iconic dress for halloween last year yeah i did uh we have the clip right here oh great oh retinol see this those readers you were talking about readers i'm telling you it's happening just because your your girl doesn't wear heels anymore ever if if i can help it if it's a choice yeah um is that the actual dress no that's the janky one that's the very one from the flash mob look at how we just connected the dots look at us full circle uh did you expect this level of excitement from fans when you posted that was there excitement yes yes oh bless oh that makes me happy um the clip uh the fact that you don't know this is crazy the clip had 42 million views you're welcome neutrogena okay all right girl um yeah good great nailed it nailed it that's so incredible you know though mark and judy and i um have talked about doing a rewatch for charity or something do you think people like if we watched it live together a thousand percent people be into that yes okay should we manifest it we love manifesting things here okay let's do it got it perfect we nailed it will a sequel ever happen are we just gonna let it be what it is um they've talked like gosh i was part of the invention of uh i was part of the development of a tv show of it at one point i was gonna be like the teacher or the mom next door kind of thing i was they've talked about a remake well i mean i just think it's inevitable because that is what the world is and it's such a great winning story but it's hard to how do you how do you not just replicate it and the wonderful thing about what gary did is it still stands up on its own very much um but there is a musical and there's a musical it's had a couple of runs um in manchester i believe it's going to london next the music is really great this amazing amazing performer she's in going into back into les mis right now her name's lucy jones and she played jenna rink and she's incredible and um um andy fickman directed it so i don't know maybe maybe we'll see it on broadway someday would that be so cool i would be awesome i would die i would make them put me in it for a night i would be like give me all the rehearsals i will be in the back but i'm doing this no not in the back in the back no i'd be happier in the back okay can i please sure thanks okay she wants to be in the back don't put her in the front um well since we're talking about the possibility of bringing back one of your characters uh you actually just did this uh with i know wasn't that cool i will tell you the marvel fan base is fun intense yeah intense is a good word insane yes both applicable now i'm sure you're sworn to secrecy but as a non-professional journalist i'm just gonna ask it meredith can tell me this uh should we be keeping our eyes peeled for more electra appearances in the future should we manifest it should we ready go let's go okay electra there we go got it nailed it okay now something i'm pretty certain you can tell me about okay is your apple tv series the last thing he told me the last thing he told me so i told you season two premiere is streaming now and episode two comes out tomorrow february 27th when you're watching this uh the i told you this morning i watched if you have not watched season one yet um um we're going to go ahead and do a little bit of an introduction of what we're going to talk about carve out some time people because i started watching at about 8 p.m and finished around 2 30 a.m because i couldn't stop myself i am sorry about that that you shouldn't be you need sleep but i'll tell you what uh-huh i stayed up right until finn our nine-month-old woke up for a feed so it was actually yeah it makes a lot of sense math it made sense scientifically um it the show is amazing the cast is incredible you were incredible thank you you felt like a maternal hug it just i i don't even know how to describe it it i was so so excited about season two and i may or may not have seen two episodes so far i can't believe you're like the first person i've spoken to who has seen two episodes so i'm kind of geeking out i will tell you yeah i'm not gonna we can bleep all of it we're gonna have to bleep the king brad bleep this when did you do that stunt yes i was like and like now okay you're you're soothing my little soul because i'm so nervous it's so nerve-wracking can i tell you after season one i thought to myself is season two gonna be like this lovely reunion situation king brad you're gonna have to cut this too let me tell you about this though you shouldn't watch it when you're in a hotel room by yourself that you can keep in that shit was bananas you know what i'm gonna do the minute i get back to this hotel i'm gonna watch episode three because i'm a glutton for punishment and holy shit oh thank you it's so good oh my gosh how about in gowrie rice how about judy greer let me tell you something let me show up let me tell you something and she's so bad i don't know if we'll ever play friends it's so good oh my gosh for anyone who hasn't watched this you play a stepmom to a teenage daughter in the show um you guys have some some things that you have to navigate together mm-hmm have you found it easier to connect with characters that are moms i don't know that no do i find it easier to connect with them because their moms know but i love having movie kids and tv kids i love the intimacy of that relationship whether they're a toddler and i get to become best buddies with a toddler or whether it's a little kid or a teenager or young adult i just i i love them and and they help give me perspective on myself as a parent and ways that i can be wait you know i'm in a relationship even practicing um the friction of it and ways that i can take that home and do a better job that's so which is mostly keeping my mouth shut because really your kids get to a point and i know i hate to say this to you because you're so far from this and it's really rude but they get to a point where you're you're not supposed to tell them everything yeah you're supposed to stay quiet and i don't know when that happens but all of a sudden it's not on you and you're actually you're in trouble and you're not supposed to tell them do this say this wear this sure and that is offensive naturally yeah but it's the truth you okay yeah okay we did talk about earlier how rude it is that our kids grow up it's rude yeah that and reading glasses those are the two things i have to tell you both are inevitable both are rude yeah both are rude um now reese witherspoon is also an executive producer on the show i read that you said that reese pushed you to go after this role is that true reese is incredible you know she really is have you met her i have not oh you'll like her so much because she's like hi but um and she's so beautiful and blonde and perky and little and you just think well i'm gonna put you in my little pocket but then it turns out she's brilliant and she is not only brilliant she's like she's the kind of small she's so mighty she could get under you and like lift you up on her on her one hand and palm you and be like you go tell them tell them what you need to tell them you know she's just all for women having every opportunity that they should have and she has completely transformed entertainment reese by herself by giving women these jobs making sure that the crew is peopled with women as leaders and women at the center of the story as their own heroes it's she's like she's kind of incredible now you uh i have a quote here that you shared from reese that quote nobody is sitting around thinking what can i shoot in la that's going to have a 50 year old woman in it you've got to create stuff on your own yeah she really did push me years ago she was just like hey this isn't just gonna happen you you have teenagers you want to be home okay you better you better go and create it and and make it so good that somebody has to buy it and that was uh that was kind of the beginning of um well you know i have a very um my my manager is my bestie and she is also very entrepreneurial and so she was also saying like let's get in there and figure this out and so we felt like our best shot at that was something in the family space and that's where yes day came from that's incredible now another legendary actress i'm grateful for right now is kate winslet is she not the bomb she's so cool i know i have not met her yet i'm waiting to question her on all things philadelphia because she did mayor of easttown and she nailed that accent she did she did a great job which is hard yeah um now kate recently talked about aging naturally and quote wanting a face that moves um i spoke about i feel very very strongly that my face tells all of the things that i've gotten to do and i think truly that crow's feet are one of the most beautiful things because it suggests that you've had a lot of things to smile about in your life um i did read that it seems that you feel similarly um i loved these quotes in particular from you you said i want to age i want to live to be 100 i want to wear every single bit of those 100 years and feel great about them and also you moved my forehead it's such a big part of my face yeah it's true yeah i did i mean of course i've tried botox and all that but it takes very little to completely freeze my forehead and then i just feel so conspicuous like i've got a walking billboard i might as well get a tattoo of something you know across it it's horrible um so no the the botox in the forehead unfortunately is not for me but i do have i have creasy wrinkles and i'm just they're gonna have to just be there so sometimes i get bangs i when you're not agreeing with them when i don't agree with my forehead i just cover it up for a little bit yeah that's great solution totally women have been doing it forever hi goldie that's actually very yeah that's a great point yeah um i realize when i talk to my kids especially because they're little i do a lot of like eyebrow raising when they're telling a story like they'll be talking and my face is doing like all of the emotions you might feel during the story because i want them to know that i'm engaged and interested in return yes and so i can't imagine not being able to give that to them can you imagine could you over dinner right now and you're just like that's so interesting thank you for telling me that and then what happens yes and that'd be so sad it would be so sad oh i can't do i can't no but i do love that women are speaking up about it and that they're we're making it clear that there's so much beauty in your face showing emotion a hundred percent and i also think that anyone who wants to do whatever they want to do they look beautiful they look beautiful but isn't that the key like women are beautiful period so don't think that i don't have something in there because i haven't done surgery i haven't i would tell you if i had i haven't done any of that stuff but at some once a year i go see someone and i'm like do it i'm a pin pincushion. I can't really tell the difference after because that is that's what i've noticed the more you spend on a dermatologist doing a bunch of things to your face the less you can tell the less you can tell
