Session 109.5: Oscar Nominee Meg Stalter Returns

Meg Stalter, a prominent actress and host of a Vanity Fair red carpet event, opens up about her recent Oscar nomination for Best Supporter in the film *Suddenly Tuesday*. In the movie, she portrays a woman who dies in a car accident, returns as an essential worker at a hospital, and finds emotional healing through love and family. The film’s emotional core is anchored in a touching monologue where she wakes up to her husband, Adam Sandler, holding a bowl of oatmeal. Meg shares personal reflections on her career, including a painful falling out with actress Chloe and her current life with a new partner, Shazam, and her children. She expresses deep concerns about child actors and the industry’s influence, emphasizing the need to protect her children’s well-being. The conversation also includes humorous and candid moments, such as a viral video where Meg posted while sick, sparking a playful exchange about attention, health, and personal boundaries. The discussion highlights themes of resilience, emotional growth, and the personal sacrifices made in a high-pressure career. Throughout, Meg and co-host Nolan bond over shared experiences like their love for ballet and mutual respect for each other’s work. The episode concludes with a celebration of meaningful moments—echoing Nordstrom’s legacy of small, heartfelt experiences—and a reminder of the human stories behind fame.

I'm just getting ready to host the Vanity Fair red carpet. So, we have Meg Stalter, one of the world's most famous actresses, coming to just talk before she. She goes to the awards. We're really excited. Are you excited, Nolan? Very excited. Okay, cool. Hey, hey, don't worry. Don't worry about what? No. I'm sorry. Hey. You're not dressed up. Oh, my outfit's getting steamed for the show. Okay. No, it's okay. I can take them. I don't want to touch them. Okay, that's cool. Hey. Oscar day. Oscar day, are you excited? One second, let me settle in. Hi. Hey, are you excited? Yeah. Sorry, I didn't know this was going to work out. I saw a video of you last night and you looked really sick. What video? Like, you sounded sick. Oh, okay, well. So, I didn't know if you'd cancel on me. No, I would never cancel on you. I mean, everyone thought you were supposed to be nominated tonight. What happened with that? You still sound like you're losing your voice. Oh, I'm not. Do you have a COVID test? No. Okay. Not that high of a production. Oh, first let me show you the dress. Okay, let me see. It's beautiful. It's beautiful. Yep. It's such a beautiful. Wow, I love it. designer. Prettiest girl in America. Yeah, I got a new tattoo. I love it. The thing about this is, oh, the camera can't really fully pick up. Okay. Just getting a. So, the thing about this dress, I guess I'll just, I'm trying to show the camera, but I'll just go like this. Okay. Wait. Sorry. So, the thing about this dress is Veronica Mars styled me, and the thing about this is it kind of lower, it goes kind of like the cut of the dress is just like hanging right on the butt. Yeah, that's beautiful. Like right above the butt, which I kind of wanted it to be such an effortless feel. Like sometimes you see the underwear, sometimes you don't. Yeah, it's like when you remember when Jennifer Lawrence wore the Calvin Klein dress. I don't really remember. I don't really remember that. Oh, are you not, you guys not close like that? I mean, we had a huge falling out. It was supposed to be Katniss. Oh, you were? Yeah. And then like what happened? Did the agent just like. I just really did not have time for this today. Okay. Sorry. It was a long audition process, and I couldn't do some of the physical activity that they needed Katniss to do. But I guess I thought having a stunt double was a thing, but I guess it wasn't. I couldn't do some of the physical activity that they needed Katniss to do. Some of the physical activity, I'm sure there's probably some things she can't do. Right. Like what do you think she can't do? Have a good attitude. Okay. Around her friends. Yeah. Because you guys, no more. We've had such a huge, huge falling out. I sent her flowers during the premiere of the Hunger Games 2, the second one. I couldn't do it during the first one. Yeah. I couldn't bring myself to doing that. And then the second one, I did send her flowers, and she's said nothing about them. She didn't even text you? She didn't even know who sent them. I sent them, probably. But did it say from Meg? No. She should know who they're from. Okay. She should just know. You know? So she didn't mention anything about that. Right. Have you spoken to Jessie since? She didn't really help you out at the Actor Awards. I've spoken to Jessie probably every morning since I met her. Because we're good friends. And you were on set. Yeah. It's not quite her fault. Whose fault is it? The editor in Chloe's. Yeah. But I love her. How did you find her? How did you find out you got cut? I found out at the award show. Son of a bitch. I found out at the award show, you son of a bitch. You didn't see the movie before? You didn't see my clip online that went viral. No, I did. You don't watch stuff that you're in. With 100,000 likes on it. Yeah. You don't watch stuff that you're in, but your agents, no one told you? I love Chloe. I love her stuff. Personally, I feel very cut off from her. Yeah. I feel like she and the editor had everything to do with me being cut from the movie. I agree. I agree. And I would love to be in one of her new movies when she comes out with a new one. So we will have to come back together. Right. Even though I love that woman. I wouldn't die for her. I wouldn't even die for my kids. She wouldn't die for you either. How are your kids? Why did you say earlier that I wasn't nominated? I didn't say that. You said you thought you were going to be nominated and you're not. Yes, I am. Oh, what are you nominated for? I am nominated for Best Supporter. For what role? For Suddenly Tuesday, my new movie. Oh, okay. What's the premise of that? You are such a jackass. What's the premise? I just know why I'm here now. Because you want to post a video and then have everyone, oh, this person is annoying to Jake. Jake hates this person. You're trying to get me and your questions are coming like so fast. Okay, so you asked me a question. Why don't you ask me a question? So right now you asked me what I'm nominated for and then what was the other jackass question? I just, I asked you about. Wait, wait, but then you've asked me about Chloe, you've asked me about Jessie, you've asked me about what I'm nominated for. I'm like, I can't even see straight. Okay, how are your kids? You're acting like we only have two minutes for this. Okay. Oh, wait, wait. How are my kids? What am I nominated for? I mean, I feel like I'm on the Fast and Furious ride in Universal's theme park. Okay, so I am nominated for Best Supporter. That is a separate tier than Supporting Actress in Main Actress. There is a middle. There's Best Actress, Best Lead, Best Supporting, Best Supporter. So I'm nominated for Best Supporter in Suddenly Tuesday. Suddenly Tuesday? Yes. And what's the premise of Suddenly Tuesday? It is a marvelous film about a mother who's enjoying motherhood and then gets hit by a car and comes back as an essential worker. Do you not research anything about your guests? I'm sitting here like, I'm dumb. I'm dumb for being here. I knew we should have done this. Okay, so what job does she come back as? An essential worker. Which is? Working at the hospital with doing the stuff with masks at the front desk. She's working at the front desk of a hospital and someone comes in, do you need a mask? Can I? So is Best Supporting gender neutral? Best Supporter? Yeah, is it gender neutral? It's girl. It's girl. We only have a girl category right now. And who else is nominated? But next year, hopefully we'll have different categories. Okay, and who else is nominated? I am Sylvester Stallone. For what? Sylvester Stallone is, I think he was in some sort of horror film and then also Keanu Reeves and, oh wait, sorry, I have to explain. I am the best girl in the category. Right. Then somebody from each gender is also in the category. Okay. So it's like right now I'm up for Best Supporter girl, but there's also like Best Supporter guy, Best Supporter blink, blink. Oh, and Best Not. Best Makeup. You're nominated for Best Makeup? Yeah. For Suddenly Tuesday. Yeah. Who else is in Suddenly Tuesday with you? I've never, I thought I saw all the Oscar movies. I'm sorry. I'm like, whoa, I'm being like completely blindsided. I don't mean to. But I just feel like you, are we really here right now? No, we're really here and we're really doing this. Like you really are coming at me fast. Okay, I'm sorry. Let's slow down. Okay. Jen Aniston's in it. Okay. And then the rest are newcomers. Okay. Like who? Freddie O'Connor. Uh-huh. I don't even meet everyone that's in the movie. Right. You're like. I'm like the main person. So there's like so many other background scenes. Like, okay, for instance, my ex-husband, because I'm dead, finds a new woman. I don't even know who plays that part. Okay. Right. How are your kids? I miss them. Okay. So my kids are actually in your green room. I told them that we're going to a doctor's office today. And so I. They saw the pictures of you and they think you're the doctor. Okay. And what are the. And how are they? They. Well, my oldest is living with her daddy right now. Aw. Because I do have a new boyfriend. And he's. And can we. He's not adjusting to having stepdaddy in the house. Can we say who it is here? Yes. So I am dating a man who works in a movie theater and he looks just like Jacob Elordi without the jawline. Hey, I. Okay. What? I heard you and Jacob Elordi were fucking. We were. Yeah. And now I'm dating someone that looks like him. Next question. Okay. I was dating him during the filming of Wuthering Heights and him and Margo and I went out for pizza all the time with fennel, of course. And it was just it was intoxicating, but I couldn't keep up because I have children and I needed someone a little bit more. So Shazam is that's my boyfriend's name is. He is so good with kids. because he has like 50, dogs and so we usually hang out at my house and he actually a lot of times it's actually easier to be at my house he's kind of like okay so it's like we're having a vacation now because he like when we come over it's kind of like a break for the dogs right he always has to bring one that has a sort of disability i don't mean to be like whatever but you last time told me you only saw your kids once a year now i have them full time full time except for the oldest monica what happened to monica she again's living with her father i told you that because she can't adjust to sam and his lifestyle shazam my boyfriend yeah my boyfriend he did my tattoo oh he did it yeah it's beautiful and monica is like she's kind of like she's awesome she's a little mini me um but i think having a new daddy in the house i think is just hard for her even though she seems amazing with kids she's like where's my dad i want you guys back together she just she doesn't she cannot process like he's gone dad's gone okay he is your new dad right shazam is your dad yeah but shazam is gone does it is it hard for you to like provide all the finance how does shazam he works in a movie theater how does he financially support 15 dogs so dogs are so like just get them whatever like if you're eating they're eating you know so he's i don't know what you mean by that or there's a big pizza everyone gets a slice you know it's not like rocket science to feed a dog um dogs live on the street so they could eat off like whatever so i'm financially supporting shazam right now if that's what you're asking yeah that is what i'm asking um bring up intact nope i trust him yeah and we're not engaged yet but hopefully i'm going to paris soon well you think he's gonna pop the question i do you're gonna bring the kids now blinds drawn yeah like you can't yeah my nanny is gonna be watching them yeah and she's taking them to a water park what's your nanny's name um oh

you're real like your monologue can you can you give it do you need a mask no i'm kidding my favorite big big big crescendo of the movie is i wake up back in my body and after you get hit by the bus it's not a funny scene um so after i get hit by the car not bus end up in heaven then god tells me to come back down as the essential worker i'm in her body then i'm back in heaven then i wake up in my own body so this is the moment where i'm waking back on my body in my when i'm waking back in my in my body on earth okay and i wake up see my husband standing over me with a big bowl it's kind of funny because the guy that plays my husband's hilarious um adam sandler so he's standing there with a big bowl of oatmeal i wake up and see him and this is the monologue okay okay ready adam i can't
