First of all, you don't know me. We all about
that high school drama Girl Drama Girl, all about them
high school queens forever. We'll take you for a ride
in our comic Girl Cheering for the Right teen drama
Queens Girl Fashion, but your tough girl, you could sit
with us Girl Drama, Queens Drama, Queen's Drama, Queen's Drama
(00:21):
Drawn MC, Queen's Drama Queens. You guys, we have a
really action packed Q and A today. Our questions are
serious business. We're gonna jump right into it. Okay, if
you could have dinner with anyone in the world, alive
or dead, who would it be? And why this is morbid?
(00:45):
Can it just like, can we just put a boundary
off and it's like someone we don't know because we're
all gonna choose someone dead that we love, so can
it be someone that we don't know who's alive. Let's
keep it in the land of the living, right, Okay,
dinner with anyone alive? Yeah, just somebody you want to
have a meal with. You know, I want to have
(01:05):
dinner with Jennifer frickin Coolidge. Oh, I just want to
sit right. Can you imagine if we were all sitting
around a table with that woman, drinking martinis and talent stories.
I would love it so much. Yeah, she is so funny.
I've been afraid to like meet my heroes. I really am.
I don't know that i'd want to, because you know,
(01:27):
it could never live up to all like the people
in my life who have been super influential, just sitting
down having a meal. I think it would feel anti climactic.
It's like prom like you spend weeks weeks thinking about it,
and you get all worked up and dressed up and
then it's over in like three where um, yeah, that's stressful.
(01:49):
I just as like a fact finding mission. Would very
much like to have dinner with Elizabeth Banks because I
like her objectory. I like I like her directing, I
like her long marriage. I like just that she like
(02:09):
you don't really know much about her private life, but
she is great at her job and seemingly like everyone
thinks she's super fun and you know, like, I'm curious
about that, and I want to see cocaine bear real bad.
I do. I heard it's great ideal a friend. Yeah,
you gotta be a cool girl to pitch that to
(02:31):
a bunch of like you know, established actors and have
everybody go a hall. Yeah, Okay, that's what I want. Yeah. Yeah.
The only person I can really think of that I
would just love to have a meal with. Yeah, it's
it's um, doctor Tim Keller, who is a former pastor,
the head pastor at Redeemer Press in New York City,
(02:54):
a church that I went to on and off in
the nineties and then just over the years. He has
had an incredible influence on my life, my spiritual journey,
my growth out of the cult that I was in
and finding my way from that back to an authentic faith.
(03:15):
For me, his voice has been very, very prevalent in
my life during that time and even now, and I've
read so many of his books and he's just very logical.
His approach to Christianity and the Gospel and Jesus is
it's just very logical. It feels like I'm going to
(03:37):
a college lecture and hearing something that is I'm walked
through why something makes sense, rather than having something like
really hyped up and I'm supposed to believe it because
the guy who's talking is like emotional, you know. So, Yeah,
I think it would be I think it would be
Tim Keller. I would love to just have a meal
with him. He's had a big, huge influence on my life.
(04:00):
Great joy, this is about this is for you. This
is with season five and Jamie coming onto the show.
What was it like to work with kids? You know,
me and other people's kids, But have you worked with
kids before? Not much? Well, in theater, I had I'm
(04:24):
you know, I'm joking when I talk about other people's kids.
I do love kids. And and Jackson was he was
He was mature for his age. He was so smart
and funny and easy to interact with, and he was
good at memory memorizing all his lines, and um, he
(04:48):
was fun. It was fun to work with Jackson. Yeah,
I had fun. I liked working with kids because you
could only work like a certain number of hours. It
was just well it's six hours. I guess we're all
going home. Hope you all got what you need it
by Yeah, I really enjoyed it. I loved the storylines
(05:09):
that I got to have with him, and it was
also just really fun to have a kid around who
was so excited. You know, the the novelty of anything
wears off. And five years into doing a job and
you know, being with the same people and living in
the same place. It's great, but it's not filled with
wonder anymore. What are you talking about? And then a
(05:31):
little kid comes to set and it is like wow,
and then you go, yeah, wow, that's so fun to
just be reminded. So I loved him coming to join
the cast. And you know, even in later scenes when
there were the babies around, it was just fun. Did
(05:52):
I ever tell you guys about the time that Jackson
and his siblings came over to my house and I
baby sat them and ghosts showed up in the pick. Oh,
So these kids were like used orbs in the photos.
They were obsessed with my haunted house and they wanted
to take old timey photos. So we dressed up and
I had him in the dining room of my house
where the woman who lived there before me died, and
(06:14):
I took these pictures of them, and all of these
orbs showed up. But you could tell that the orb
wasn't just like floating light. It was it was like
behind Jackson's head, but his head cut it off, but
it was in front of all the stuff in the
middle ground, Like it didn't make sense. Yeah, it wasn't
a flare light couldn't hit. Yeah, it was weird. Those
(06:36):
kids are mystical. That was a whole gang of them. Yeah.
He had his little brother and little an older sister, right,
the three of them. Yeah, good family. They were sweet,
sweet kids. Oh. I like this one because I love snacks.
What is your favorite midnight snack? Peanut butter and jelly
and crackers? Wait, you put the peanut butter and jelly
(07:00):
o crackers instead of breast man. Interesting. M okay, what's yours? Soap?
I don't know. I'm a popcorn person, but I make
popcorn on the stove in a pot. I don't do
microwave popcorn. I'm like, I'm very, very passionate about popcorn
in general. So that would probably be the first one.
(07:22):
And oh, next is like, if they're sour candy in
the house, watch out because I'm gonna I'm gonna find
that late at night. I have made the mistake of
making my family addicted to charcuterie boards like it is
the Morgan kids an expensive habit. My husband and these kids. Joy,
(07:46):
I'm not putting nice things on that board. You know.
It's just like American cheese and some crackers and like
some nuts. I can fine, you know, like whatever. My
family will all be kind of like angsty, and then
someone will yell out like, you know what, we need
a charcuterie board, and then I'm the one that has
to go put it together. Yeah, man, charcutery boards are
(08:08):
a big deal in our house late night. Fancy man.
I have this dream of having a home that you know,
my friends just kind of like come in and out
of and and so I have this dream of having
like a four o'clock charcuterie like breadboard that's just out,
just a four o'clock like swing on in happy hour
(08:29):
and bread maybe like every Thursday. Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe I'll make it happen. It's fancy. You go post
that on Facebook. You just tell all those other chicks
in town, come here, which acting scene are you most
proud of from the show? Y'all ready to brag? M
(08:55):
I mean you guys, we watch episodes together every week,
and this question, it's like it's like the music one.
I can't think of a single episode we've ever done
in this moment. Yeah, do you have one? Like does
it come to you right away? I really don't. I mean,
(09:15):
I know which ones I enjoyed working on that I
felt good about. You know, as an actor, when you do,
you feel like you've done the best that you can do.
Whether I'm proud of how it turned out or not,
I don't really know, because I just don't like I
don't like watching my performance from that perspective. But I
(09:38):
know there were plenty of times where like the comedy
hit exactly the way I wanted it too, and it
felt good. And I think some of the stuff, like
when Nathan was in his wheelchair, I feel like there
was some good stuff in there that I remember feeling
like going home feeling good about the work I had
done that day. I don't know that's about it. What
about you, guys? I mean so much of it is
(09:59):
to pennant on how it's edited together, because you could
turn in an awesome performance and then it gets like
paired with a shitty song and you're like, oh, that's
the coverage they're going to use. Yeah, totally. But I
remember when the episode where Peyton finds Ellie's body aired
and I got the feedback like, oh, my god, you
(10:21):
were so brave to be so ugly in that scene.
Just your face because my face is like contorted in
like serious terror and like sadness and stuff. But hearing
that as a compliment was like, yeah, I went there.
I'm an artist, yea, I just wished for it. But
so yeah, I felt I felt very connected to that storyline. Yeah,
(10:46):
I don't know. I think the things that jump out,
like the vulnerability that I really got to do with
Brooke at Nathan and Haley's wedding. I think about some
of that work that I got to do in later
seasons with Brooke and Victoria. I always liked it when
(11:12):
Brooke would get mad and like go on a ramp.
I like someone that was always really fun for me,
the really speedy, like mad, funny stuff. But yeah, I
don't I don't think there's something that I go, oh,
that's the scene. It's you can't pick one thing in
you know, a decade. Yeah, there's those moments that stand
(11:35):
out that are so sweet. I mean I even think
about it, like as it's all sort of bubbling up
from my subconscious I remember the conversation we had early
on when we did the episode where Brooke and Peyton
went on that boat for the day. Oh yeah, I
remember we were we were watching that back, and the
three of us were like, Oh, it's just so nice
(11:56):
to see these girls having fun and Sharry I am laughing,
and it was so refreshing to all of us. And
I even love those things. And it wasn't like some
you know, incredible acting moment. It was just so great
and honest and sweet. And I like that We've had
the opportunity as women in this show to do so
(12:20):
many things that is more fun to me than perhaps
one specific moment. You're right when you said honest, because
I think that's what we do as actors. We hunt honesty.
We're just like, where is it? And we'll walk through
all the weeds and we stare through the trees and
we just wait and watch until we can feel it nearby,
(12:42):
and then we jump on it, as you know. And
so anytime we're able to find that honesty, whether it's
comedy or drama, we love it. Yeah, it feels good,
it feels nice. Hey, guys, would you ever go to
space if you had the chance? Yes? Still yeah, yeah,
(13:06):
absolutely yeah, but like now or would you like I
would go? But when I'm about eighty, well, look are
we talking? Like Okay, you can go to space and
then you come back like you get to go for
a week or we like traveling light years talking about No,
I'm talking about somebody buys you a ticket to get
on the Virgin Atlantic flight to the Moon. Are you
(13:28):
doing it? Um? I think that I very much want
to go to Mars. Everyone knows I'm a big Ray
Bradberry fan, and Marshan Chronicles is a perfect book. And
there's going to come a point where like, my kids
don't need me anymore, and um, yeah, when you're old,
(13:49):
this is what I'm saying. When we're old. Yeah, but
my kids like not eighty. Like I'm still trying to
have some muscle tone when I'm up there so I
can do somety so all right seventy two right, Yeah,
I'm will be a very muscular seven year old woman.
Yes it's space camp girl. Yeah yeah, I mean it's
(14:13):
such a complicated answer. My initial is like yes, and
if I could get on a flight and go and
see for myself with my own eyes the imagery that
has been taken by our astronauts and our you know,
space shuttles and the things that have literally changed my life.
(14:33):
Like you know, I have a tattoo on my arm
because of the pale blue dot, because of the nineteen
seventy two Voyager launch. Like, I am so deeply moved
by and influenced by the things we've learned from that
vantage point. So I'm like, if I could go for
a weekend and see the Earth like that, I would
love to. And then the other you know, the annoying
(14:55):
part of my brain is like the carbon emissions. Yeah,
I can't, I can't go to space. No, we're holograms. Now,
we're holograms. We're just gonna like teleport there. Yeah, I
don't know. It's like it's so complicated. I would like
to go. I would really like to go. And I
also I am sure that I don't know by the
time we're muscular grandmothers, there might be a better way
(15:17):
to do it. Right, which which planet is the planet
you're trying to hit? M I mean, i'd love to
see Mars. I I'd love to get close to the Moon. Yeah,
it doesn't have to be a planet. But then it's like,
I don't know, you see that crazy imagery of Neptune
(15:37):
and Jupiter. I want to see all of it. Yeah,
what's the want to see it? A couple of the
planets have diamonds just like floating around them. They like
have natural diamonds from all the pressure, just like floating around.
And it's like, whoever figures out I don't know that. Yeah, yeah,
it's just diamonds. That'd be cool. Like, listen, we went
(15:59):
on a little trip how to Martini came home with
all of these. These are my Jupiter Damons the Boogieest
Space Trip. Okay, number ten, do you have any embarrassing
or funny stories from set that you've never shared before?
People ask us this question all the time. I don't
know if I have anything I haven't shared in twenty years.
(16:22):
It's probably because I don't want to. Yeah. Also, there's
things we forget, Like you could tell me a story
and I'll go, oh my god, I forgot about that.
But I'm sure ten years ago I told the story
because at that point I hadn't forgotten it. That is true. Yeah,
I wish I'd written these things down. The problem, guys
with our job is that it trains our brain to
(16:44):
be wi my mic is weird. It trains our brain
to be have a short memory, so we remember lots
of pieces of information for a short amount of time.
And then it's gone, so details and little stories and
things like that. If you want to remember it, you
got to write it down because it disappears. And now,
(17:05):
I've always wanted to be a journal person and I'm
just not. But I do agree with what you were saying. Hillary.
I think some of them, the stories we've never told,
we're not gonna tell God, And that might be because
they're hilarious, and it might be because yeah, we're not
trying to ruin it for everybody. I don't know, hidden man,
I love that sentiment. They're like, Hey, what's your deepest
(17:28):
duck is secret? You know, honey, I can't know. Let
me think we've been I think we've been more than forthcoming. Yeah,
let me have my things, you know what I'm saying.
I had never had to share a trailer before, right,
And I was always so self conscious peeing on my
(17:51):
side of the trailer. Oh I still am h because
I was just like, oh no, so fiastic. Try sharing
one with a boy. Oh no, sorry, Oh yeah, so embarrassing.
I'm so embarrassed. I just don't want to pee in
front of people. It's a weird. It's a weird. Share. Yeah,
(18:16):
I'm not into it. Well that's it. Thank you guys
for sending me questions. Send more. That's so fun. We
had a little religion this week. Somebody humor, you know,
some space, some space. Just wrapped it all in a
great hodgepodge. We'll see you guys later. Hey, thanks for listening.
