Speaker 1 (00:01):
And Amanda gem Nation the Blessed Me from The Daily Oz.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
So, Hello, I want to talk to you about a
new interview with one of my favorite actresses, Jamie Lee Curtis.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Do we love her?

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Why are you debating this? Earlier? I love her, and
now I'm not so sure. I've interviewed her a couple
of times and she kind of I really like her,
but she wants to be the most relevant person in
the room. So I find that she has claimed her
middle aged noess in a great way, and she's won
an oscar, and she says women shouldn't have plastic surgery.

(00:36):
She said, women need to, you know, stand up, be this,
don't be, don't be. Body obsays all wonderful messages, but
there's a certain marmishness to her. I like to go
to bed earlier, don't mark up, don't I don't know.
She's decided that.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
She's she's gone full blown.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Karen, Wow, that is an indictment. She's done this new
interview with The Guardian, which is exactly as you've described, Amanda.
She's very kind of empowered by aging.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
She's very critical.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Great messages, exact messages, great messages. The journalist writes that
she gets to the interview extraordinarily early and that that's
kind of a bit intimidating. And she speaks to jamiely
Curtis about being so early, and she said that she
doesn't give a S word. I don't know if we
can say that word on breakfast radio, but that she

(01:26):
is early all the time because she wants to kind
of people to be on their toes. She wants to
kind of disrupt things and get there and ruffle feathers.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
She does make people feel uncomfortable because she likes to
be the smartest person in the room.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, and you can tell that from this interview. She's
really zany. There's this photo shoot to the companies that
where she's got these big kind of wax lips, these fake,
fake lips on as this kind of comment on aging
in Hollywood. She speaks about rejecting cosmetic culture. She said,
the wax lips is my statement against plastic surgery. I've
been very vocal about what she calls, quote, the genocide

(02:00):
of a generation of women by the cosmeceutical industry complex
who disfigured themselves. The wax lips really send it home.
She speaks about how when she was twenty five, she
underwent plastic surgery because she was on set and a
cinematographer told her that her eyes looked baggy, so he
refused to shoot her that day, which that's pretty messed up.
You go to work, you get sent home because you're

(02:21):
on twenty haggy in your twenties, So no wonder she
is the way she is. But she's promoting Freaky a Friday,
which is the sequel to Freaky Friday. Several decades later,
she's back. Lindsay Lohan's back. Lindsay Lowan is playing a
mum of a teen daughter, and instead of in the
first movie when Jamie Lee Curtis is the mum of
Lindsay Lohan being the teen, Lindsay's thirty seven, now Jamie

(02:44):
sixty six. There's a fifteen year old girl and the
movie does a four way body swap. Curtis is the grandma,
and there are these teenage girls who are influencers. I'm
personally worried. Freaky Friday was a big part of my
childhood as a millennial woman, and I'm not sure it's
going to go well.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
But it sounds good. I need to hang on, so Jamie.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
The grandma become the influencer teenager.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yes, the grandma becomes one of the teenagers, the mum
becomes one of the teenagers, and the teenagers become the
mom and the grandma.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
Had a bit five man, I think maybe they're Yeah,
I could see it the other way around. If I
put on my director's pantaloons, I'd say that Jamie Lee,
they swapped the three way swap, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, it was like a step too fast, But I
think you're right, A man curiosa. Since Jamie Lee Curtis
won this oscar which was for everything, everywhere, all at
once in the movie last year, she's had this huge resurgence.
She's starring in The Bear, that awesome TV show on
Disney Place. She had like a one off episode appearance,
like a cameo, and it was so amazing. She was

(03:50):
Emmy nominated that now they've made her a regular character
on that show. So she's really having this sort of renaissance.
But she insists she's kind of been prepping herself to
retire for the.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
Last thirty years.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
She sort of describes that her parents, Tony Curtis gently
were ostracized as they aged. She said, basically, once they
started to lose their good looks, she watched her famous
parents kind of slowly disappear from the spotlight, and then
it was really sad. So she said that she's kind
of backing off herself, that she doesn't want to be
at the party when she's no longer invited. But I

(04:22):
don't know if that's true.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
I think she really is. She's throwing her she's.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
Throwing the party, and she's reinvented herself from being seen
as a dipsy younger actress in the Holyood in the
Halloween movies. She's reinvented herself at just the right time.
She should be leading the crusade. But don't be.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Cranky, didn't Tony Curtis, He.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
Went on, he was still viable.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Lady seen him coming into a restaurant.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
That was Dean Martin.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
I was Dean Martin. But that story is great anyway,
We're too bosomy, lady.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yeah, And it looked like he was his sheveled and
being escorted out, and they said that was him going in.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Come on, well, there you go.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Freaky a Friday is out on the eighth of August.
I will be very interested and skeptical about it, but
I'll let you know.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
Thank you. M. Check M bilespiet at the Daily.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
On and if you're going to be interviewing Jamie Lee Curtis,
be ready. She will be early and she's forceful.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
She's here now where I'm going to until next month.
Thank you, M.
