Oh, it's like this, everyone's still I 0:01:28.240 --> 0:01:30.360 know where that we were at the eighteenth of January, 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:34.039 but everyone's still in that weird phase of like, are 0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:36.720 you back fully into work? Do you hate your life already? 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:38.880 Does twenty twenty two stuck? Is it going to be amazing? 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:42.319 Have you actually broken your New Year's resolutions or managed 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:44.520 to exercise every day for the past two weeks? 0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:46.720 If you have, good on you, I certainly haven't. 0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:48.720 I think I'm going to jinx myself, but I'm pretty 0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:53.160 excited to say I still haven't been. 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:57.559 I still haven't improved myself from last year. I haven't 0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:59.040 touched my New Year's resolution. 0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:02.120 Happy to say I am exactly the same amount of 0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:05.200 hot mess as I was in twenty twenty one. Nothing 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.120 has changed, and I feel good about it. New Year's 0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:09.400 resolutions are always a bit too ambitious for me. I 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:11.919 will never not be a hot mess. I don't think 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:12.800 that day's ever gonna come. 0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:12.880 No. 0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:14.760 What I'm gonna say is I feel like I just 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:16.440 spend every day now and it's a gamble. 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.640 I'm like, when's it gonna happen every day? Dodging COVID. 0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:20.560 I am one of the people that have somehow managed 0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:24.800 to live in the epicenter of COVID. Bondai I diagnosed 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:26.600 COVID throughout the start of the pandemic. When I was 0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:28.920 working in the hospital, I traveled to America where there 0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:32.200 was COVID. I do not know how I was around you, 0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:34.840 Laura when you got diagnosed. I was like, great, Laura's 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:38.360 ruined Christmas for me. Me it was me, I ruined 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:39.280 Christmas for every time. 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:40.680 I'm like, great, I've got COVID. 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:43.240 Laura's got COVID, Mad's got COVID. I'd been around all 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:45.240 these people that got COVID. I was like, one hundred percent, 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:47.280 I'm getting it. I've dodged it. I don't know how, 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:48.880 and you watch, I'll probably get it tomorrow now that 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.000 I've jinxed myself on the podcast. Did you see the 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:52.919 media release that actually came out that if you don't 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.320 get it by January, they give you a prize. 0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:59.720 Shut up, I'll take it anyway. Guys. 0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:02.760 That enough about the COVID chat the word that she'll 0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:06.720 never be said again. We have an awesome, awesome episode 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:08.600 for you today. We are coming in as hot as 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:11.280 we could possibly come in back at twenty twenty two. 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:11.959 Steaming. 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:14.760 Oh god, we are steaming. We are burning, we are 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.360 sizzling in this episode. Do you know who is steaming 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:21.480 in this episode? Wilson Well, part of Reblue Steaming for sure. 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:26.600 Brittany finally used her powers for good. She got Rebel 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:30.560 Wilson rebels on the pod. She's here, she joins, Actually, 0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:32.240 do you know what? We joined her? We went to 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:35.680 Rebe Wilson's house. We sat in her ridiculously bougie house. 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.119 She asked us if we wanted steelwater or sparkling water. 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:40.360 We wrote in the elevator for fun. We didn't even 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:41.160 have to go upstairs. 0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.520 We just did it. Her house is three levels and 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:44.960 it has an elevator. 0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:48.880 It's like it's a beautiful home, yes, with beautiful water 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:52.280 with a jetty. Anyway, before we get into that, we 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:53.800 want to say a very big thank you to our 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:57.960 sponsor who made today's episode possible, and that is the Iconic. Now, 0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:00.760 you guys already know that they are easily the best 0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:02.920 place to shop for fashion, but there's so much more 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.560 than that. They're not just a fashion brand, guys. They 0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:09.840 are now a lifestyle brand. They have women's, men's, kids, sport, beauty, 0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:12.720 and homewares. There is literally something for everyone. So a 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:14.960 very big thank you to The Iconic for jumping on 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.000 board today. It has already been a bloody massive year. 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:22.480 First off the ranks is that we finally hit twenty 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.640 million downloads, and we wanted to say thank you so 0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:27.880 much to all of you who listened last year, to 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:31.200 every single person who's supported the podcast, who's been part 0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:33.440 of the Facebook group, who's been part of the discussions, 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:35.760 every single one of you who's written a message to 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:37.960 us saying that an episode has helped you in a way, 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.760 or you've given us maybe you've messaged us and said, hey, 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:42.640 you really should talk about this, and we've taken your 0:04:42.640 --> 0:04:44.960 topic advice. So we just want to say thank you 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:47.760 so much because without you, guys, we never would have 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.520 gotten to twenty million. Literally, it still blows my mind 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.640 that we have been listening to twenty million times. Laura, 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:55.680 and for those people that are new, even in the 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:57.360 last year. I guess we've been around for about two 0:04:57.360 --> 0:04:58.960 and a half years now. I think I just have 0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:00.200 to do the math. I think it's about two and 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:02.479 a half years, about two hundred and twenty ish episodes. 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:04.920 Can you believe we've spent that much time together? Every 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:08.039 day it's sunny, spend more time with you than I 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:09.680 do with Matt and my own children. 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:11.880 I know we are the real love story here, but 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:13.760 I remember, for those of you that are on you 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:16.080 and haven't been with us from the very beginning, first 0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:17.880 of all, go back to the beginning and you'll have 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.039 probably a lull at how far we have come and 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:21.120 a difference in the records. 0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:22.800 But I remember Laura and I. 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:26.720 Doing our very first record, and I remember we were 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:28.760 saying to each other, oh my god, I hope someone 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:30.800 listens to us. How many people would you be stoked for? 0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:32.719 And we were like, we hope five hundred people listen. 0:05:32.800 --> 0:05:36.039 We hope five hundred people we can reach. It just 0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:38.200 went bonkers at the start, but I think the first 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:41.560 episode only got maybe, like don't quote me, five thousand listens, 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:44.200 and Laura and I were beside ourselves. We were just 0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:46.880 so excited that we had this new platform that we 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:49.000 could speak to you guys, that we could form this community, 0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:51.800 and I think we just had no idea how far 0:05:51.839 --> 0:05:54.480 we would come and the community we would create. And 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:57.480 for us, the best part is the community. We've said 0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:59.440 it so many times, but we just cannot get enough 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:01.640 of you guys and the love and the support and 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:04.760 the bloody hilarity that you bring to life on cut Well. 0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:06.200 I think the best part of it is that we 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:08.720 didn't really go I mean, Britta and I we did 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.920 nothing special to create this community. You guys created it yourselves. 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:14.560 We brought the content, and you guys brought the conversation. 0:06:14.800 --> 0:06:17.120 And I think it's just a testament to the fact that, 0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:21.320 like dating's fucking hard, we've all had really challenging experiences 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:24.120 when it comes to being heartbroken and when it comes 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:26.880 to trying to navigate what our love lives are. And 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:29.320 that's what this all started out as at the very beginning. 0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:31.120 It was a space to be able to kind of 0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:34.520 wade through the shit of what relationships are. And there's 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:37.599 something incredibly galvanizing. I know, I say the word galvanizing 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:39.040 a lot because you guys have been talking about it 0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:43.800 in the Facebook group. But there's something incredibly bonding over heartbreak, 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:45.080 and that's where it started. 0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:48.120 Laura pools up and saw us on a computer. Literally. 0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:51.000 Actually, that was something that did come up over the 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.200 Christmas break, over the holidays, and I really loved it. 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:55.159 And we're trying to work out a way that we 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:59.040 can make something physical in this world. Somebody put together, 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:02.359 one of you fucking legends put together a drinking game. 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:03.160 And it was in the podcast. 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:05.320 It's like, every time Laura says one of these words, 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.279 you take a shot, every time Brittany says one of 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:09.200 these words like lol Cano, you take a shot. 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:10.720 And I thought it was brilliant and. 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:12.640 I thought there must be something in this that we 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.200 can make a physical game that we give you guys 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:19.520 that you can I guess just get drunk on. But 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:21.520 well done to whoever made that. We absolutely loved it. 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:23.560 I had a really good chuckle. The other quick thing 0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:25.640 that we wanted to tell you is we do have 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:28.760 just such a huge year planned for you guys, and 0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:31.040 one of the big things we're kicking off with is radio. 0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:33.760 I'm sure that's not new to you because we've been 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:35.840 so chuffed about it and so hyped about it. We've 0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:38.520 spoken about it, we've promoted, we've we've linked you, We've 0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:40.400 done everything we can. But we did have our first 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:41.880 show last week. 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:43.640 Just on the weekend. 0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:44.320 Went well. 0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:48.080 I don't know, I was so nervous, who fucking knows, 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:49.880 But we did it. We've got the first cab off 0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:51.640 the rank and it can only get better from here. 0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:53.040 It can only get better from here. 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:54.600 Now, someone I want to talk to you about where 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:59.000 things aren't going so well, is Drake. Please tell me 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:03.560 you have about the situation with Drake and the condiment, 0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:07.440 this spicy condoment. I mean, it's a saucy story, guys. 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:11.280 This is the story that we Nobody could have ever 0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:13.320 thought that twenty twenty two was going to kick off 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.600 with this. But it's truly the story that has brought 0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.000 a lot of joy and also a lot of questions 0:08:18.040 --> 0:08:20.520 into my life. If you haven't heard the story that 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:23.520 has happened to Drake, it's been circulating in the news. 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:24.480 I wouldn't say it's. 0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:27.240 Very reputable news sources like it's not been on news 0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:28.360 dot com, for example, not. 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:30.120 Lad Bible, call TACD. 0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:32.400 It's on lab Bible, It's been on Daily Mail, but 0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:34.840 there is an Instagram model who has come out and 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:39.040 accused Drake of tampering with his condoms. Now, when I 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.200 say tampering with his condoms, I don't mean that he 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:44.120 has been putting holes in them or doing any of that. 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:48.240 I mean after he's ejaculated, he's tampering with the sperm, 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:52.200 his own sperm, tampering with his own sperm to stop 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:55.640 anybody from trying to steal his sperm, which is just 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:58.319 very There's a lot of questions around how you get 0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:01.240 to that point. Basically, Drake cooked up with an Instagram 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.560 model at a party, and the alleged sauce goes like this. 0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:07.400 After the party, they went back to his hotel. They 0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:09.840 smoked some weed for a bit, and he asked if 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:10.960 she wanted to have sex. 0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:11.560 She said. 0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:14.760 He was very intent on ensuring things were consensual. He 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:16.760 then went to the bathroom and came out with a 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:20.640 condom on After they'd finished having sex, Drake supposedly went 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:24.040 to the bathroom to dispose of the condom. Now, the 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:27.800 Instagram model who has gone unnamed, has fished the condom 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:31.120 out of the trash, untied it, and put the opening 0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:33.120 of that condom into her vagina. 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:38.120 She's tried to impregnate herself secretly in the bathroom after 0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:39.520 they have had consensual sex. 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:42.320 Yes, that she was in for a bit of a surprise. 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:44.640 She's in for a bit of a spicy surprise because 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:49.080 Drake had put hot sauce into his own condom to 0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:52.720 try and kill the sperm, thinking that maybe this was 0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:56.880 going to happen. There are so many things here that 0:09:57.160 --> 0:09:58.800 I just want to pick my drop off the ground on. 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:02.160 Let's just start from one who. 0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:02.760 Carries hot sauce. 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:05.600 But this is the Okay, this is the question. Did 0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:09.000 he carry hot sauce with the specific intention of using 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:11.400 it to kill the sperm, or was it just like, 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:14.680 oh fuck, I've got this sperm. I'm worried she's gonna 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:16.000 try and take it instead. 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:16.079 Of putting it. 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.079 We'll just quickly go and get the food that I've 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.240 ordered room service, and I'll get some hot sauce from that. 0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:20.720 Yeah. 0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:23.240 No, he one hund And this is actually, let's be 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.920 serious for a minute. This is very really really serious issue. 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.880 He has been carrying the hot sauce. Obviously, I didn't 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.040 know hot sauce killed sperm. He obviously carries that because 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.920 this is an issue for him. He's obviously worried that 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:36.800 women and it's probably not the first time that women 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:38.319 are going to try and fall pregnant to him. 0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:40.040 And I think that what a. 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.360 World we have to live in if you need to 0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:45.199 carry hot sauce and then pour it into your own 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:46.040 news condom. 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:48.400 And I mean lucky he did, because she tried to 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:50.120 do it. She literally tried to do it. Yeah. 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:52.200 I know the story in itself is like pretty funny, 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:54.760 but if this was reverse, like if this was a 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:56.880 guy and a girl in the situation were reversed, I 0:10:56.880 --> 0:10:58.960 don't think we would think of it as being so funny. 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:00.839 So I do think that we have to acknowledge that 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:05.640 the conversation around consent here is very, very problematic, and 0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:08.000 this is a fucking huge issue that he even has 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.200 to do it in the first place. But the thing 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:13.880 that makes this story so outrageous and wild is that 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:17.360 the Instagram model in question has come out and said 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:19.600 that she is suing Drake. She is going to be 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:22.240 the one to sue Drake because of the damages that 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:25.160 have occurred to her vagina after she tried to steal 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:28.440 his sperm from the hot sauce. Because she was literally 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:31.480 on fire, so she I mean, could you imagine putting 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:32.480 a bit of tabasco in yr. 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:34.000 Haha, and then. 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:40.160 But then trying to sue, Like, in my mind, surely 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:44.040 there is no person on this earth that would let 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:47.000 her win in this situation when she tried to steal 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:50.480 his sperm from a condom and inseminate herself. 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:53.040 Surely there is no judge in history that is. 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:54.800 Going to say, yes, Drake, you need to pay her 0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:57.800 damages for something that she did to herself. I guess 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.920 the question is that maybe I mean, if you're a lawyer, 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:02.640 I want to know, like, how is this going to play. 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:03.600 Out an American lawyer? 0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:07.040 Maybe there's something around intent, because if he's doing it 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.160 knowing full well that someone is going to do that 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:12.080 to themselves, he's setting up a trap where someone's going 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.160 to cause it's going to cause bodily harm to them, 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:16.880 even if the intention of them was something. 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:19.160 Do you know what I mean? Yeah? But I imagine imagine, for. 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:22.520 Example, if you had someone try and break into your house, 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:24.640 and you thought someone's going to break in through that window, 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:27.640 and you set up an automatic gun or something that 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:29.640 when they opened the window, it shot them you would 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:32.319 be sued because you are the one who, even though 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:34.640 they tried to break in, you caused harm to them. 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.760 So I think, in this crazy, fucked up world, she 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:40.800 might actually have some stance for suing him. 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:41.360 It's wild. 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:44.200 I will give up on humanity if that's the case, 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:45.400 if she actually wins. 0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:47.600 But this is really a thing. 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.440 So when I when I delved into this, there are 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:53.719 there are whole basketball teams like NBA teams. There are 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:58.080 a lot of sporting teams whose management tell them advise them. 0:12:58.120 --> 0:12:59.840 They have group meetings and they're like, if you go 0:12:59.880 --> 0:13:01.120 on hook up with a woman, if you're having a 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:03.200 one night stand, if you're doing whatever else, you take 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:05.800 your condom, you tie it up, you put in your pocket, 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:07.000 you put it in a bag. You do not put 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:08.320 it in a bin, You do not leave it or 0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:10.559 you you make sure it's one hundred p cent disposed of. 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:15.040 It's obviously an issue that's reoccurring totally. But what team 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:18.160 manager is saying, Hey, get some hot sauce and put 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:20.000 it in like, tie it up and put it in 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.560 your backpack. Can you imagine how much Drake's can get 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.200 paid to do a hot sauce commercial on Instagram. Right now, 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:28.520 he's going to make more from a Hot Sauce company 0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:30.439 than he is from any of his music. He did 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:32.959 come out and say, though he was a bit quiet, 0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:36.000 he's really a photo and he's put one statement up, 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:38.800 and I think it was a bit of a power move. 0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:40.520 It was a bit of a nothing statement. You didn't 0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:42.400 know what it was about, but it's obviously about her. 0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:44.920 He just put a photo up and said, you can 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.360 have your fifteen minutes of fame. I'll take the other 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:48.720 twenty three hours. 0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:53.040 And forty five minutes. Oh, saucy, saucy boom. I like it, 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:53.360 don't you. 0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:56.040 I mean, look, well, just when we thought twenty twenty 0:13:56.080 --> 0:13:58.319 one had everything it could possibly offer us, twenty twenty 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:01.120 two it's given us this wonderful little gem of a story. 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:03.160 And like we said earlier, I know that there are 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:05.839 some big conversations here around consent, and we're not making 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:10.320 jokes of that. It's just the absolute outrageousness that I 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.280 can't even believe that this is a story. I can't 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:14.280 even believe that that's where we're at. No, No, And 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:16.400 it's very serious. We're joking because it's hot sauce, but 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:19.120 it's very serious. It's very serious issue of consent. But 0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:21.400 it's important to note that by all accounts and from 0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:23.800 the Instagram model that this was very much consensual on 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:26.320 Drake's behalf. The sex, that is, the rest of it 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:29.000 was not. So I'm interested to see how this plays out. 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:31.000 I think that nothing's going to surprise me anymore. But 0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:33.960 follow this very very tightly. All right, well, we do 0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:36.360 have a huge episode for you today. It is a 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:37.760 long one, but you know what, it's one that you 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:39.640 can listen to when you drive to work and then 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:41.200 come home from work, put it on when you're in 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:43.040 the shower. It's going to be the gift that keeps 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:45.280 on giving. But we're going to get into our favorite 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:47.800 segment which we do on every episode, and that is 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:51.160 accidentally unfiltered and confessional. 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:53.760 Oh you have a confession. I bring in a confessional today. 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:56.160 All right, I've gotten actually unfiltered. I'm going to go first. 0:14:56.200 --> 0:15:00.680 This one is not disgusting, which I love the fact 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:02.720 that we need to preface it with that. All right, 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:03.240 here we go. 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:05.840 I went on a first date with a guy from 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.240 Hinge and it ended up being a great night. 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:16.760 Well, that is funny. We went off listen to you. 0:15:17.040 --> 0:15:21.040 He's seeing yourself and your own joke. She's fucking gone 0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:23.760 for gold, probably the best one I've done. 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:27.520 And that's the end of the episode. Thanks for listening. 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:29.000 That is, he accidentally unheltered. 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:31.600 We went from one bar to another. 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:35.000 We had great conversations, and he ended up coming back 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:35.440 to mine. 0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:37.920 In the morning. We woke up and went. 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:40.040 To go get Brecky together, and before we left, I 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.600 was talking about someone I thought may have been a 0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.920 mutual friend of ours. I went to look them up 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:47.080 on Facebook with him standing right next to me, and 0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:50.480 up Pops my Facebook search history, showing that I'd stalked 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:55.240 not only him, but his brother and his grandfather. 0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:57.720 Hey, what's up, Pops? 0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.000 I was really doing my due diligence before the date. 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:03.120 I went down a full on rabbit hole trying to 0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:06.200 find out as much information as possible. He was obviously 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:09.040 really taken aback and wouldn't stop bringing it up over breakfast. 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:11.480 Safe to say, there wasn't a second date, as I 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:13.960 tried to come up with every excuse under the sun 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:16.360 as to why I had looked up his brother and 0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:19.040 his grandfather and how I even knew their names in 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:22.560 the first place.

Can you 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:47.960 know how some people just pose like moody you can 0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:50.280 half see their face.

I can't imagine this because it 0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:23.760 was me. 0:18:23.800 --> 0:18:25.760 If you're an OG listener, you'll know the story, but 0:18:25.840 --> 0:18:27.560 if you're not, this will be new to you because 0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:30.000 this was possibly the most mortifying thing I've ever done 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.560 in my entire life. My ex boyfriend, there was a 0:18:33.600 --> 0:18:36.200 bit of overlap in my relationship with him and his 0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:38.840 ex girlfriend, right, and it made me crazy because. 0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:40.800 A cute way to say there was cheating. Well, I 0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:41.080 don't know. 0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:46.840 It was an overlap. I didn't know at the time, right, 0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:49.000 but there was something that was amiss, Like I found 0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:50.600 out later in the relationship, there was a bit of 0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:54.159 an overlap. But it made me crazy that he was 0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:56.280 still in contact with his ex girlfriend when we had 0:18:56.280 --> 0:19:00.720 started dating. And yeah, I was like, you know, I 0:19:00.760 --> 0:19:03.000 was always talking her Instagram. Oh were not on Instagram? 0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:03.520 Wasn't around that. 0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:06.560 I was always talking her Facebook. I was talking her tumbler. 0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:07.399 She had a tumbler. 0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:09.359 Did you guys remember that she had a blook and 0:19:09.359 --> 0:19:11.880 she would always put up photos and videos and things 0:19:11.880 --> 0:19:13.639 that were like aimed at him, or songs that were 0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:17.120 aimed at him, so I was always stalking her tumbler. 0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:19.560 Anyway, I got out of the wind beneath my wings, 0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:20.639 you are the wind. 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:23.119 No, she put up that gotcha song, you know, the 0:19:23.119 --> 0:19:25.840 one which is like somembodied that a fucking cast. 0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:30.280 Yes, it traumatized me. I was traumatized. Anyway. 0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:32.239 I got onto her Facebook this one day and I 0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:34.320 was like, you know, back in the day where the 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:36.640 search bar and the status update, we're kind of right 0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:37.320 next to each other. 0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:39.840 So I had fat fingers, You're in a lot of trouble. 0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:45.600 I typed her entire name into my status update and 0:19:45.840 --> 0:19:50.159 updated my status for five hours your ex boy to. 0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:51.760 Your boyfriend's ex girlfriend's name. 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.240 And then I went to work and I got a 0:19:54.240 --> 0:19:56.919 phone call at three o'clock in the afternoon, and my 0:19:56.920 --> 0:19:59.640 boyfriend at the time was like, hey, Laura, I think 0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:02.720 you might want to change your status on Facebook, and 0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:05.280 all these people had just written question marks underneath, like 0:20:05.320 --> 0:20:08.359 question marks, question marks like I could have done. I 0:20:08.400 --> 0:20:12.080 hate myself now. If she's listening, I'm sorry, I'm not 0:20:12.119 --> 0:20:15.560 crazy anymore. You actually out as well. Do many people 0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:17.160 know us? I probably should edit that out. I think 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:20.600 we need to change the name let's beef the name. 0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:23.640 Produce a keisha. That's your job. Beep out of the name. 0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:27.000 Okay, yeah, that was a that's embarrassing anyway. Okay, give 0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:28.080 me your give me your last one. 0:20:28.080 --> 0:20:28.280 Give me. 0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:30.280 Then I'm going to give you a confessional because I 0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:32.639 feel like I'm sorry, but I cannot repent. I mean, 0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:34.000 you cannot repent here with us. 0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:37.520 I have PTSD from that. Bring me your confessional. 0:20:37.640 --> 0:20:40.000 Okay, I have a confessional. It is a bit more 0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:43.800 of a serious confessional. I do not feel like you 0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:46.000 can repent here, But thank you for trying, and thank 0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:47.480 you for sharing. You definitely know you to go and 0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:48.960 speak to someone that can do it for you, probably 0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:55.159 like a counselor no, like your priest, like the police. 0:20:56.359 --> 0:20:59.679 When I was seven, my local church left their doors unlocked, 0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:01.880 so me and my cousins went inside snooping. 0:21:02.160 --> 0:21:03.600 They had a Christmas. 0:21:03.119 --> 0:21:06.040 Tree set up with heaps of wrapped up beautiful presents. 0:21:06.440 --> 0:21:10.280 We unwrapped every single one, we picked out what we wanted, 0:21:10.320 --> 0:21:11.359 and we took them home. 0:21:11.800 --> 0:21:14.320 A week later, somebody snitched on us. We had to. 0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:17.040 Return all of our new toys and attend Sunday school 0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:18.399 for a month as punishment. 0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:19.840 The worst part is. 0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:23.480 The presents were for underprivileged kids in a third world country. 0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:26.200 Oh that's cool. Am I a bad person? Yes? Yes? 0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:30.679 Seven or not? 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.680 I am glad there was a little snitch that dubbed 0:21:33.720 --> 0:21:35.720 you in. But I just think at seven, okay it 0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:38.560 all Honestly, at seven, you don't really know what you're doing. 0:21:38.600 --> 0:21:41.119 You're like, Oh, Mom's never gonna buy me that truck. 0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:42.919 I'm going to take that truck. You do know what 0:21:42.960 --> 0:21:45.320 you're doing. But guess what, people change. I'm a different 0:21:45.359 --> 0:21:46.800 person to who I was when I was seven. 0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:47.400 Well, I hope at. 0:21:47.359 --> 0:21:49.840 Twenty seven she's not stealing from under the Christmas tree anymore. 0:21:49.840 --> 0:21:50.680 But bless your soul. 0:21:50.840 --> 0:21:52.800 All right, Well, let's get into what you all actually 0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:54.919 came here for, because I'm sure it wasn't that. But 0:21:55.000 --> 0:21:57.280 we do have Rebel Wilson on the podcast, and if 0:21:57.280 --> 0:21:59.199 you've been following along for a little while, it's a 0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:02.760 long time come, you'll know that sporadically, over the last 0:22:02.800 --> 0:22:05.000 eighteen months, Rebel's name has been brought up for a 0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:07.840 multitude of reasons, and that Britt also just likes to 0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.160 drop her on her Instagram feed like they're cool. 0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:11.280 Casual friends. 0:22:11.400 --> 0:22:13.800 You guys know, Rebel's name has been dropped a multitude 0:22:13.800 --> 0:22:15.639 of times over the last eighteen months. She was always 0:22:15.640 --> 0:22:17.639 someone that I loved as an actress. 0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:18.840 I just was obsessed with her. 0:22:18.880 --> 0:22:20.879 I'd tried to get her on the podcast a few times, 0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:22.560 like when Laura and I wrote our list of who 0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:25.160 we want to speak to in life. We both brought 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:26.520 the list to each other and we thought some of 0:22:26.560 --> 0:22:28.280 them were like real big shots who were like, we're 0:22:28.320 --> 0:22:30.320 never going to get these people. Rebel was always on 0:22:30.359 --> 0:22:34.159 my list. Fast forward and I met her in real life. 0:22:34.200 --> 0:22:37.439 She's a big tennis fan. Obviously, I was traveling with Jordan. 0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:42.040 We met. We became very very fast friends. She's a really, really. 0:22:41.880 --> 0:22:43.840 Incredible woman, someone that you were I mean, you're gonna 0:22:43.880 --> 0:22:45.800 learn that for yourself very soon. She's a bit of 0:22:45.840 --> 0:22:48.840 an unexpected package. But we did become friends. We do 0:22:48.960 --> 0:22:51.679 hang out now. I have nothing but amazing things to 0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:53.400 say about her. And I know, Laura, you were quite 0:22:53.440 --> 0:22:56.600 surprised when you met Rebel. She's probably not what people. 0:22:56.359 --> 0:22:57.320 Think she is. 0:22:57.520 --> 0:22:59.040 Well, I feel like people would think that she's a 0:22:59.200 --> 0:23:03.159 huge personal and like always like she's very funny, But 0:23:03.200 --> 0:23:05.800 I feel like you would expect that she's a bit 0:23:05.840 --> 0:23:07.719 more on all the time, and I think she's just 0:23:08.119 --> 0:23:12.520 she's so warm, she's so lovely. She's incredibly intelligent, like 0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:15.399 like fiercely smart, and just a really awesome person to 0:23:15.400 --> 0:23:17.200 sit down and have a chat with. But one thing 0:23:17.240 --> 0:23:20.040 that Britt hasn't shared is the fact that she slid 0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:22.560 into her DMS many moons ago. And that is a 0:23:22.640 --> 0:23:26.119 story that Britt finally shares with Rebel. The cool factor 0:23:26.160 --> 0:23:29.200 that Brit has been. You know, Rebel thinks that BRIT's cool. 0:23:29.240 --> 0:23:30.040 I don't think she does. 0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:34.520 It's finally dropped. The facade is finally gone. No, we 0:23:34.520 --> 0:23:36.000 told her in the pod. You'll hear about it in 0:23:36.080 --> 0:23:38.159 a minute. But I mean I slid into Rebel's MS 0:23:38.240 --> 0:23:40.080 before I knew her, trying to get her on the podcast, 0:23:40.119 --> 0:23:41.719 and then when I met her, I was hoping that 0:23:41.720 --> 0:23:43.119 that wasn't a thing. But we're going to get into that. 0:23:43.119 --> 0:23:44.560 I'm not going to talk too much about it now, 0:23:44.640 --> 0:23:46.000 But there are a lot of things you guys gonna 0:23:46.080 --> 0:23:48.119 learn about Rebel. Some things you may already know, like 0:23:48.160 --> 0:23:49.639 the fact that she's a lawyer and she does a 0:23:49.680 --> 0:23:52.600 lot of humanitarian work. But other things you might not know, 0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:55.959 like she was just included in the BBC one hundred 0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:58.560 Women for twenty twenty one, so that was just in December, 0:23:58.600 --> 0:24:01.640 along so many inspirational But it's really to celebrating women 0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:04.639 doing amazing things for the world, amazing things in their career, 0:24:04.840 --> 0:24:06.880 and we're all about celebrating women. 0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:08.879 So let's get into the chat with Rebel. 0:24:12.080 --> 0:24:14.879 Well, there is someone you guys have been requesting to 0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:18.000 come on this podcast for a very very long time. 0:24:18.040 --> 0:24:21.040 And there is somebody I haven't even introduced. 0:24:21.119 --> 0:24:23.119 Ye okay, all right, shut up until. 0:24:24.480 --> 0:24:26.600 Someone that I have been trying to get on this 0:24:26.640 --> 0:24:29.120 podcast for long then you know, or actually I did 0:24:29.160 --> 0:24:29.800 tell you about it. 0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:32.320 But I'm very excited. 0:24:31.920 --> 0:24:35.280 To finally welcome the one and only a Rebel Wilson 0:24:35.480 --> 0:24:35.880 to life. 0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:41.640 I'm popular, Hi, Britt, Hi Laura.

And I've been trying 0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:31.720 to get you on the podcast. When Laura and I 0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:34.159 said who do we want to interview, I was like, 0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:37.240 I would love to get reb Wilson. I have slid 0:26:37.320 --> 0:26:39.639 into your DMS. I don't know if you remember, but 0:26:39.680 --> 0:26:42.440 you actually wrote back to me and I yeah, But then. 0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:46.000 Me though, I don't think so, and this is the question. 0:26:46.480 --> 0:26:47.399 I don't think it was you. 0:26:47.600 --> 0:26:50.639 So sometimes my team, I don't really look at the 0:26:50.720 --> 0:26:53.520 dms because I get crazy shit on the DM so 0:26:53.600 --> 0:26:55.560 I don't really look at them. And I also get 0:26:55.600 --> 0:26:57.680 thatut like you can say, I get like a thousands 0:26:57.720 --> 0:26:58.080 a day. 0:26:58.280 --> 0:27:01.320 So before I slid into your I woke up one 0:27:01.359 --> 0:27:03.760 morning to which was the most exciting day of my life. 0:27:03.800 --> 0:27:06.280 I told him about the podcast. I woke up to. 0:27:06.280 --> 0:27:09.000 An Instagram message that said Rebel Wilson started following you, 0:27:09.720 --> 0:27:12.200 and I was like, oh, obviously it's a Rebel Wilson 0:27:12.200 --> 0:27:14.159 fan account because someone's heard that. You know, I think 0:27:14.200 --> 0:27:16.399 she's a great actress. And I went into it and 0:27:16.440 --> 0:27:18.800 it was you, and I lost my shit. I was like, 0:27:19.000 --> 0:27:20.920 how is my favorite actress following me? I was like, 0:27:20.960 --> 0:27:23.679 we didn't have any mutual friends, we'd never spoken. I 0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:27.240 was beside myself. Yeah, and then I said on the podcast, 0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:30.679 I was like, evidently she's either tried to stalk me 0:27:30.720 --> 0:27:32.240 and it's been a slip of the finger, or I've 0:27:32.240 --> 0:27:34.440 been on the Explore page and she's accidentally press following. 0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:36.600 I was like, anyway, I'm giving this two weeks max 0:27:36.640 --> 0:27:38.119 before I pop back in a fee and she's like, 0:27:38.119 --> 0:27:40.440 who the fuck is that and unfollowing me. The two 0:27:40.480 --> 0:27:44.800 weeks to the day you unfollowed me. The funny thing 0:27:44.920 --> 0:27:45.400 is is that. 0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:46.960 Britt has told this story. 0:27:46.640 --> 0:27:49.400 On the podcast before about how you followed her on Instagram, 0:27:49.520 --> 0:27:52.440 how she slid into your dms, and then everyone who 0:27:52.480 --> 0:27:55.520 listens has been like, Brittany manifested a friendship with Refa 0:27:55.560 --> 0:27:58.760 Wilson through this Instagram the mishap, I was like, there's 0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:01.119 no way she actually cared about me or wants to 0:28:01.160 --> 0:28:03.159 follow me a slip of the thumb, or it's not 0:28:03.280 --> 0:28:05.800 you and someone else's managing your account have done it. Anyway, 0:28:05.920 --> 0:28:07.080 I got two weeks. 0:28:08.920 --> 0:28:11.840 That when John I mentioned it that I like went 0:28:11.920 --> 0:28:13.160 on and then. 0:28:13.080 --> 0:28:14.240 Just thought she was boring. 0:28:14.720 --> 0:28:16.719 And then and then you were like, look at all 0:28:16.760 --> 0:28:19.640 these purse strafts and then damn. 0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:21.440 It could be really like I could have it could 0:28:21.440 --> 0:28:23.399 have been me, I think, really, I just thought I 0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:23.639 was there. 0:28:23.760 --> 0:28:25.080 Yeah, it was one of my teams. 0:28:25.119 --> 0:28:26.920 Yeah. Anyway, you gave me two weeks, two weeks of 0:28:26.960 --> 0:28:28.400 happiness before you took it away. 0:28:28.440 --> 0:28:32.240 So isn't that weird that we then ended up meeting. 0:28:32.400 --> 0:28:35.119 Well, then I wrote to you and I said I 0:28:35.160 --> 0:28:36.639 tried to play cool, but I was like, you know, 0:28:36.880 --> 0:28:39.040 like we'd love to have in the podcast. You know, 0:28:39.080 --> 0:28:41.080 I do all these interviews and we've had some great people, 0:28:41.120 --> 0:28:43.560 and then you wrote back, not you, I'm doing you 0:28:43.560 --> 0:28:45.640 in Inverted Commas was obviously like someone on your team. 0:28:45.800 --> 0:28:47.360 The fact that you actually wrote back or even said 0:28:47.360 --> 0:28:48.720 that on the podcast. I was like, look, Rebel did 0:28:48.720 --> 0:28:49.240 get back to me. 0:28:49.320 --> 0:28:49.920 She declined. 0:28:50.560 --> 0:28:52.960 You were like, no, you're a polit You were like, yeah, look, 0:28:53.120 --> 0:28:55.040 that's great, congratulations on your success. 0:28:55.280 --> 0:28:56.520 You were really sweet. 0:28:56.920 --> 0:28:58.680 You're like, I'm really busy at the moment, but I 0:28:58.720 --> 0:29:01.840 would love to one day when my schedule clears.

I said, she's going to 0:29:16.880 --> 0:29:17.640 realize soon. 0:29:17.760 --> 0:29:19.479 I'm going to post something. I'm going to come up 0:29:19.480 --> 0:29:21.320 in her feed. Because you only followed like two or 0:29:21.360 --> 0:29:23.160 three hundred people. I was like, she doesn't know she's 0:29:23.200 --> 0:29:26.240 done it. I was like, there's no other reason for. 0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:28.080 Her to have done it. Yeah, and you did. 0:29:28.120 --> 0:29:29.400 You obviously saw a post and you were like, on 0:29:29.440 --> 0:29:31.240 the far I bought mission immediately. 0:29:33.040 --> 0:29:35.840 So for playing with your emotions, Yeah, I'm sorry, Brian. 0:29:36.640 --> 0:29:38.280 I also love that this is the first time you've 0:29:38.320 --> 0:29:40.240 ever said this story, and that you've been holding onto 0:29:40.240 --> 0:29:41.080 this for weeks now. 0:29:41.400 --> 0:29:43.080 Well, I knew the time would come. I knew should 0:29:43.080 --> 0:29:44.200 get on the podcast one day. 0:29:44.320 --> 0:29:45.720 Right, I'm here, I'm here, I'm ready. 0:29:45.800 --> 0:29:47.600 Do you know what I'm excited for? It's how we 0:29:47.640 --> 0:29:49.920 start every single one of our interviews, not this one. 0:29:49.960 --> 0:29:50.800 Apparently we've got it. 0:29:50.840 --> 0:29:52.800 We had a special treat for you today, a special 0:29:53.360 --> 0:29:58.479 little surprise. We start our episodes the same way. That is, 0:29:58.520 --> 0:30:01.800 asking if you're accidentally unfiltered story, your most embarrassing story 0:30:02.240 --> 0:30:03.960 are you going to share with everyone? And I hear 0:30:04.000 --> 0:30:05.920 you have one that you haven't told before. 0:30:06.360 --> 0:30:09.280 Brit pre warned me about this last night and I go, well, 0:30:09.400 --> 0:30:12.600 I've got a story about shitting myself and she's like, yep, yeah. 0:30:12.680 --> 0:30:15.080 Then I have a sex story that was like quite 0:30:15.480 --> 0:30:16.880 quite embarrassing as well. 0:30:17.000 --> 0:30:18.920 She's like, do you think I should tell who or sex? 0:30:18.920 --> 0:30:20.240 And I'm like, girl both. 0:30:20.560 --> 0:30:22.880 Britt said she wanted both stories, so I was like, 0:30:22.960 --> 0:30:24.320 oh my god. 0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:28.200 I'll and he's never before told Well, I might. 0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:30.680 Have told the shitting myself story, but the other one 0:30:30.960 --> 0:30:34.640 definitely not publicly. So I think you might remember when 0:30:34.640 --> 0:30:36.680 we were in Los Angeles with Jordan and we went 0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:39.400 on that hike yep. So that hike is like a 0:30:39.400 --> 0:30:42.400 classic hike that I do in LA. It's in Griffith 0:30:42.400 --> 0:30:45.480 Park and I love ever since I first moved to Hollywood. 0:30:45.520 --> 0:30:47.400 I love it because you can see the Hollywood Sign 0:30:47.520 --> 0:30:50.040 and I think the Hollywood sign rings me luck give 0:30:50.080 --> 0:30:51.720 it a little kiss, so when I see it, I'm 0:30:51.760 --> 0:30:56.200 like yes. And anyway, so one day, anyone who's like 0:30:56.240 --> 0:31:00.280 an emotional eater might or had struggles with food or whatever, 0:31:00.440 --> 0:31:03.840 might you know understand this story. But I was like 0:31:04.040 --> 0:31:06.000 having a bit of a down day. I ordered like 0:31:06.040 --> 0:31:09.720 a whole pizza for lunch my sad one bedroom apartment, 0:31:09.720 --> 0:31:12.600 and just like ate the whole pizza and I feel 0:31:12.640 --> 0:31:15.400 like I had like a thing of two liter and 0:31:15.440 --> 0:31:17.720 pepsi or something like that as well, and just like 0:31:17.880 --> 0:31:20.720 downed it. And then I started feeling like even more 0:31:21.080 --> 0:31:23.600 sad and a bit depressed because I was like, why 0:31:23.640 --> 0:31:25.640 did I just go and eat all of that? So 0:31:25.640 --> 0:31:27.360 I'm like, you know what, I'm gonna fix this I'm 0:31:27.400 --> 0:31:30.440 going to go out for a walk. So I go 0:31:30.520 --> 0:31:34.120 on the hunk and you know, it's hiking up hill 0:31:34.160 --> 0:31:37.000 and feeling like I was feeling very sluggish after eating. 0:31:37.080 --> 0:31:39.880 I mean that would have been probably thousands of calories. 0:31:40.240 --> 0:31:43.120 And then I was like, yeah, okay, but I'm burning 0:31:43.160 --> 0:31:45.880 it off now so slowly. And then I start coming 0:31:45.880 --> 0:31:48.480 down the hill and there's kind of houses between my 0:31:48.600 --> 0:31:51.960 house and the park, and then I like just get 0:31:51.960 --> 0:31:54.040 this instant feeling like I've got to go to the toilet, 0:31:54.160 --> 0:31:56.680 like I can't make it the few streets back. 0:31:56.560 --> 0:31:59.280 To my place or when it hits you, it hits you. 0:31:59.400 --> 0:32:01.560 Yeah, and me, and I was like it was all 0:32:01.560 --> 0:32:04.479 inside and it just had to come out. And I 0:32:04.520 --> 0:32:08.160 was like, but okay, I'm fairal like I'm just in 0:32:08.280 --> 0:32:11.440 like leggings, like I don't look nice. I don't have 0:32:11.480 --> 0:32:13.720 any makeup on or whatever. Like I'd been in the 0:32:13.760 --> 0:32:17.360 movie Bridesmaid, so I was kind of recognized, like not 0:32:17.440 --> 0:32:20.480 a superstar or anything, but I was kind of recognizable. 0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:23.960 So I was like, oh geez. And then I was 0:32:24.040 --> 0:32:26.440 like then I was like, so I'm like in the 0:32:26.480 --> 0:32:28.920 residential street, there's house on both sides, and I'm like Okay, 0:32:28.960 --> 0:32:33.440 I got it. I gotta like go, like should I 0:32:33.560 --> 0:32:35.240 just ask somebody? And then I was like I can't. 0:32:35.520 --> 0:32:37.560 What am I gonna do? Just knock on their door 0:32:37.600 --> 0:32:39.440 and say, can I use your What do you do? 0:32:39.960 --> 0:32:42.000 What do you do? It was too far to walk. 0:32:42.000 --> 0:32:43.400 I knew there was a toilet at the park, it 0:32:43.440 --> 0:32:45.560 was too far to walk back. Like, I wouldn't have 0:32:45.560 --> 0:32:48.280 made that either, and then I wouldn't definitely wouldn't have 0:32:48.360 --> 0:32:50.400 made my house. Like I was trying to hold it in. 0:32:50.440 --> 0:32:52.720 I couldn't. So I'm like, I'm just gonna have to 0:32:52.760 --> 0:32:54.640 go in somebody's front yard. 0:32:55.200 --> 0:32:58.000 No, and then I was like I just have to. 0:32:58.160 --> 0:33:02.560 And then I saw this house and then and then 0:33:02.560 --> 0:33:04.320 I'm like, I'm just gonna do it. But there wasn't 0:33:04.360 --> 0:33:07.000 any coverage. It wasn't like there were shrubs and bushes 0:33:07.040 --> 0:33:09.240 so you could hide behind just on the lawn. 0:33:09.000 --> 0:33:10.960 Like a dog. Yeah, pretty much. 0:33:13.400 --> 0:33:15.600 So there was kind of a bush, but it went 0:33:15.640 --> 0:33:18.320 to the side, so I didn't really provide much coverage. 0:33:18.560 --> 0:33:21.840 So I just went near that and I just had to. 0:33:21.880 --> 0:33:25.719 Like I literally had about thirty seconds logistically. 0:33:25.080 --> 0:33:27.640 Speaking, how far off the road are we We're talking 0:33:27.680 --> 0:33:31.160 like two meters off the footpath was a deep property. 0:33:31.440 --> 0:33:34.680 It had a nice front garden, but I was probably 0:33:35.000 --> 0:33:38.040 four meters from like, you know, it was very grass, 0:33:38.120 --> 0:33:41.880 you know, it was a grassy, nice, nicely mode grass. 0:33:42.000 --> 0:33:44.239 And I was like, this is the one. I got it. 0:33:44.360 --> 0:33:48.160 I could only make a radius of a few houses, 0:33:48.200 --> 0:33:50.680 like and I was like, Okay, that's the one. But 0:33:50.720 --> 0:33:52.760 there was no coverage, like there was no tree or 0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:55.400 something I could go behind, Like, it just wasn't like 0:33:55.400 --> 0:33:57.840 that on that street. If it was running down your 0:33:57.920 --> 0:34:00.560 leg or something like that be bad, that be really bad. 0:34:00.800 --> 0:34:05.120 So anyway, I squat in the person's front yard and 0:34:05.160 --> 0:34:08.080 then you know, I'm just kind of frozen, and I'm 0:34:08.120 --> 0:34:10.160 just going, what if somebody sees this? 0:34:10.360 --> 0:34:13.399 Like what if what if you were papped at the end? 0:34:14.000 --> 0:34:16.759 I know because I often get papped there and so 0:34:18.120 --> 0:34:20.800 like going on the hike. But then a car. 0:34:20.760 --> 0:34:24.080 Pulls in the driveway. Yeah, no, I see. 0:34:24.120 --> 0:34:26.480 It was like it was on the curb. In the curb, 0:34:26.560 --> 0:34:28.719 so not in the driveway. The driver's right there. But 0:34:28.800 --> 0:34:30.600 so it must have been a visitor to the house. 0:34:31.280 --> 0:34:34.040 And then I'm like, they're gonna see me if they 0:34:34.120 --> 0:34:36.400 get out of that car. They're gonna see me, so 0:34:36.560 --> 0:34:39.280 my mind because I'm still squatting on the front lawn 0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:42.359 like yeah, like it's so disgusting, like I can't even 0:34:42.680 --> 0:34:45.560 my mind goes. If they come and say something, I'm 0:34:45.640 --> 0:34:48.359 just gonna scream I'm pregnant. I'm pregnant. I don't know 0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:50.719 why that was my thing. Why do you have to 0:34:50.760 --> 0:34:52.560 scream it at This is just what I was like 0:34:52.840 --> 0:34:56.360 gonna say because you've got to say something. And then 0:34:56.480 --> 0:34:59.640 the man gets out and I'm like if he walks 0:34:59.719 --> 0:35:02.360 in to the house like he's you cannot miss me, 0:35:02.560 --> 0:35:06.440 like you can't, but I'm frozen. And then he walked 0:35:06.560 --> 0:35:09.239 to the other house and he didn't see me. So 0:35:09.280 --> 0:35:11.840 I just pulled up my pants and then I left. 0:35:12.000 --> 0:35:14.000 Imagine if they had like a video cam or something 0:35:14.600 --> 0:35:17.160 to check back and there's Rebel Wilson doing a pool 0:35:17.200 --> 0:35:17.919 in the front yard. 0:35:18.120 --> 0:35:20.640 No, but I wasn't like it's super super fain like 0:35:20.680 --> 0:35:22.920 I'd done Bridesmaids, which was a big hit, but I 0:35:23.040 --> 0:35:26.520 wasn't like I don't think my name faced recognition as 0:35:26.560 --> 0:35:28.880 we call it in the business, was that strong at 0:35:28.880 --> 0:35:31.200 that point. But do you know how I was like, 0:35:31.480 --> 0:35:33.000 that is like my worst nightmare. 0:35:33.320 --> 0:35:35.359 Don't remember the articles that used to come out about 0:35:35.360 --> 0:35:37.160 the poo jogger in Sydney. There was someone who was 0:35:37.160 --> 0:35:39.480 doing it every morning outside of Boxy. 0:35:39.200 --> 0:35:42.120 Just sentos us. They became known as the poo jogger. 0:35:42.520 --> 0:35:44.480 They would just go to the toilet in people's front yard. 0:35:44.520 --> 0:35:46.359 Yeah, there was going for a run every morning and 0:35:46.400 --> 0:35:48.560 purposely doing a pool in the front yard of people's houses. 0:35:50.520 --> 0:35:56.000 It was not, I swear to god it wasn't. But 0:35:56.239 --> 0:35:59.080 if anyone is listening, and maybe they owned a house 0:35:59.120 --> 0:36:02.920 and lost feelers and was very confused by what had happened, 0:36:03.000 --> 0:36:06.120 and now they understand, just know, I'm very very sorry, 0:36:06.440 --> 0:36:10.520 and it won't happen again. And I hope that those 0:36:10.640 --> 0:36:12.560 nutrients went into the ground and. 0:36:12.520 --> 0:36:15.520 Maybe that beautiful little shrub that we were squad of 0:36:15.520 --> 0:36:17.239 heind is now a big flourishing tree. 0:36:17.320 --> 0:36:18.640 I don't know what's good from I'll call it the 0:36:18.640 --> 0:36:20.680 rebel bush.

And I was, yeah, 0:36:51.719 --> 0:36:53.560 what do I say, Like I was giving a blowjob. 0:36:53.600 --> 0:36:57.360 It was the situation. Everyone was having a great time. 0:36:59.200 --> 0:37:04.560 I finish, and I came up to like give a 0:37:04.680 --> 0:37:08.200 kiss on the mount, you know, get somewhere. Yeah, And 0:37:08.560 --> 0:37:12.960 as I was coming up, he accidentally elbowed me in 0:37:13.040 --> 0:37:17.520 the eye, like right in the eye. And the shock 0:37:17.600 --> 0:37:19.839 of it because it was just it was just a 0:37:19.840 --> 0:37:23.319 freak accident, like he obviously didn't didn't mean to do it. 0:37:23.480 --> 0:37:25.200 He was in so much. 0:37:25.120 --> 0:37:27.040 Joy he loved the blow drop side. 0:37:27.600 --> 0:37:30.040 He didn't realize and it was just the weird angle 0:37:30.080 --> 0:37:34.160 of the elbow connected as I was coming up, and 0:37:34.200 --> 0:37:38.320 then it was actually very painful. So I started crying. 0:37:38.800 --> 0:37:43.239 So I just curled up and started crying because there 0:37:43.280 --> 0:37:47.080 was something about giving someone pleasure or whatever and then 0:37:47.120 --> 0:37:48.120 being hit in the face. 0:37:48.200 --> 0:37:50.480 Oh, yes, that I was something about. 0:37:51.160 --> 0:37:54.080 There was something about it that just like I really 0:37:54.239 --> 0:37:57.080 upset me. And then I was crying, and it was 0:37:57.120 --> 0:37:59.319 just the shock of it as well, and then he 0:37:59.320 --> 0:38:02.000 didn't know what to do. And then I was horrified 0:38:02.000 --> 0:38:05.560 that he then told his mother story later that night. 0:38:06.000 --> 0:38:08.240 I don't know why you would tell your mother that story, 0:38:08.280 --> 0:38:09.600 but he did. 0:38:09.719 --> 0:38:11.600 So you were together, and he sat down with his 0:38:11.719 --> 0:38:12.680 mom in front of you and me. 0:38:12.800 --> 0:38:14.520 No, it wasn't in front of me. I just found 0:38:14.520 --> 0:38:17.720 that out later. Wow. I kind of sent him home 0:38:17.840 --> 0:38:18.480 after that. 0:38:18.600 --> 0:38:20.680 After giving him a blow him being stacked in the fain. 0:38:20.840 --> 0:38:24.279 Yeah, well it was obviously an accident, but I was 0:38:24.320 --> 0:38:28.279 just upset and I started crying. And I didn't mean 0:38:28.360 --> 0:38:30.360 to start crying, Like I know it was an accident, 0:38:30.840 --> 0:38:33.320 but I was just crying, like like, what's. 0:38:33.120 --> 0:38:34.080 The point of telling the mother? 0:38:34.200 --> 0:38:36.600 I don't know, but I was not when I was 0:38:36.640 --> 0:38:41.560 invited to family Christmas, I was not going to go because. 0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:43.359 Of that reason, because she knew that she knew about 0:38:43.360 --> 0:38:45.080 that had given the son a blowjob. 0:38:45.200 --> 0:38:45.480 Yeah. 0:38:45.520 --> 0:38:48.319 Do you think it was though, because like maybe he 0:38:49.080 --> 0:38:51.480 didn't know if his reaction was the right reaction, Like. 0:38:51.440 --> 0:38:53.200 Maybe he didn't come in the right way. 0:38:53.400 --> 0:38:55.799 Yea. And so you were obviously upset. So then he 0:38:55.880 --> 0:38:57.279 was like, Mum, what do I do here? 0:38:57.640 --> 0:39:01.000 Yeah, because I think he initially laughed writing oh there 0:39:01.040 --> 0:39:03.239 was this line because he didn't realize but it was 0:39:03.239 --> 0:39:07.080 so it was just a straight sharp elbow connect right 0:39:07.120 --> 0:39:09.680 to my eye. So I was like it was painful. 0:39:09.440 --> 0:39:12.000 Like not okay, yeah, sexual experience, yeah. 0:39:11.960 --> 0:39:15.200 No, it wasn't tell us a little bit about who 0:39:15.239 --> 0:39:16.920 you were before you are the. 0:39:16.840 --> 0:39:20.520 Rebel, changing completely changing the subject. 0:39:20.600 --> 0:39:22.640 Just for you, Laura, I want to know a little 0:39:22.680 --> 0:39:25.799 bit about your childhood, where you grew up and what was. 0:39:25.760 --> 0:39:26.680 School like for you. 0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:29.920 Well, I actually loved school, but I grew up in 0:39:30.000 --> 0:39:33.319 Sydney's like Western suburbs. I went to school Castle Hill 0:39:33.360 --> 0:39:35.799 Primary School with now one of the richest men in 0:39:35.800 --> 0:39:39.520 Australia was in my class. There was Scott Farqua who 0:39:39.680 --> 0:39:41.680 he was one of the founders of at lassin isn't 0:39:41.719 --> 0:39:48.759 he shrekyone law fark? Why no, no no? And he 0:39:48.840 --> 0:39:50.680 was the kid that him and I I was very 0:39:50.719 --> 0:39:53.080 good at maths as a child and he was obviously 0:39:53.080 --> 0:39:55.720 a genius as well. And then we would always compete 0:39:55.760 --> 0:39:58.160 in maths and I think in year six I think 0:39:58.200 --> 0:39:59.919 he got he got first or second in the great 0:40:00.040 --> 0:40:02.040 I got third, and then I was like I knew 0:40:02.080 --> 0:40:04.399 that kid was gonna do it was great, and then 0:40:04.440 --> 0:40:06.319 he did anyway, So I went to Castle Hill Primary 0:40:06.360 --> 0:40:08.040 School and there was something in the water, like so 0:40:08.120 --> 0:40:11.200 many talented kids and stuff have come out of that. 0:40:11.200 --> 0:40:13.560 It was just like a regular public school. And then 0:40:13.880 --> 0:40:16.240 then I went to an all girls Christian high school 0:40:16.280 --> 0:40:19.960 called Tara, which people might know in Paramatta. And then 0:40:20.000 --> 0:40:23.120 my high school, I was like the dorkiest girl at 0:40:23.239 --> 0:40:24.920 the start. I was in the cool group for like 0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:28.239 two weeks, then get kicked out because I didn't I 0:40:28.280 --> 0:40:31.759 refuse to smoke behind the gym. I was like, no, 0:40:31.840 --> 0:40:33.520 I'm not a smoke I'm not doing it. And then 0:40:33.560 --> 0:40:35.759 I get kicked out of the cool group. And then 0:40:35.880 --> 0:40:38.880 I was like a Nigel for like almost two years 0:40:39.480 --> 0:40:41.680 after that because all the other groups had formed in 0:40:41.719 --> 0:40:43.840 high school, so I didn't have a group. So I 0:40:43.880 --> 0:40:46.120 would just sit in the library by myself and stuff. 0:40:46.200 --> 0:40:49.839 Oh no friends, yeah, I know, just because I didn't 0:40:49.880 --> 0:40:52.560 fall for the peer pressure, and then I lost out 0:40:53.840 --> 0:40:54.440 looking out. 0:40:55.000 --> 0:40:55.280 Yeah. 0:40:55.800 --> 0:40:59.440 But so then I was like, oh, screw this, I'm 0:40:59.440 --> 0:41:03.680 gonna become popular, and then did and like atally it 0:41:03.719 --> 0:41:06.200 became popular, and then I loved school. So much that 0:41:06.239 --> 0:41:08.520 I ended up being a border at school because I 0:41:08.560 --> 0:41:10.920 was just really into everything at the school, and we 0:41:10.960 --> 0:41:13.880 did plays and musicals and we did lots of sports 0:41:13.920 --> 0:41:15.520 and everything, and I was just so into it. So 0:41:15.600 --> 0:41:17.480 of my friends bought it as well, and so boarding 0:41:17.520 --> 0:41:20.000 school can be crap for some people, but I actually 0:41:20.040 --> 0:41:20.719 really loved it. 0:41:20.840 --> 0:41:23.200 So you would describe yourself as a nerd. 0:41:23.400 --> 0:41:26.920 Yeah, nerd in that I was very academic and you know, 0:41:27.160 --> 0:41:29.920 smart and yeah and weirdly like good at maths and stuff, 0:41:29.920 --> 0:41:32.239 which a lot of the other kids hated, like, yeah, 0:41:32.480 --> 0:41:35.440 you just get one hundred percent. I'm like, oh, it's easy, 0:41:35.560 --> 0:41:37.640 like it was now you want to be my friend? Yeah, 0:41:37.680 --> 0:41:40.399 but no. But like all my friends at Tara were 0:41:40.520 --> 0:41:44.399 very the same, like smart but good girls, very ambitious, 0:41:44.440 --> 0:41:46.880 Like one of my besties is now a lawyer in Manhattan. 0:41:47.280 --> 0:41:49.480 The other one lived in Paris for many years, like 0:41:49.520 --> 0:41:52.239 crushing and in business and got an MBA. And we 0:41:52.320 --> 0:41:55.600 all was just ambitious young ladies who got taught that 0:41:55.680 --> 0:41:58.319 we could do anything with our lives and like went 0:41:58.360 --> 0:42:00.360 out there. So it was kind of cool to be 0:42:00.920 --> 0:42:03.040 like that by the end of high school. Not certainly 0:42:03.040 --> 0:42:05.440 not in the beginning but it became cool to be 0:42:05.680 --> 0:42:08.680 like the smart, successful girls. Yeah. 0:42:08.840 --> 0:42:12.000 And were you always into drama and arts at school 0:42:12.080 --> 0:42:12.879 or did that come later? 0:42:13.200 --> 0:42:15.319 Yeah, but I never did it as a subject. But 0:42:15.440 --> 0:42:18.640 with the Kings boys next door, we did plays and musicals, 0:42:18.719 --> 0:42:21.040 and that to me was like probably like the highlight. 0:42:21.120 --> 0:42:23.040 And I never thought I would be a professional actor 0:42:23.120 --> 0:42:25.400 or anything, but I loved it, Like I loved what 0:42:25.480 --> 0:42:27.640 we did at the school, and they were kind of 0:42:27.680 --> 0:42:30.400 we had There was a multimillion dollar theater at that boys' school, 0:42:30.400 --> 0:42:33.920 and we just had an awesome time putting on their productions. 0:42:33.960 --> 0:42:36.799 And that's why I didn't finish at night like until 0:42:36.840 --> 0:42:39.080 like eleven pm to after the show or whatever. So 0:42:39.080 --> 0:42:41.080 that's why I lived at the school eventually, because I 0:42:41.120 --> 0:42:42.279 was just doing so much there. 0:42:42.480 --> 0:42:44.960 But also, I mean, everyone knows you for acting, and 0:42:44.960 --> 0:42:48.279 when you say you're ambitious and so academic at school, yeah, 0:42:48.320 --> 0:42:49.799 Well a lot of people probably don't know is that 0:42:49.840 --> 0:42:52.200 you also went on to study You did a law degree, 0:42:52.360 --> 0:42:54.839 Like there's so many more facets to your life before 0:42:54.840 --> 0:42:57.480 you actually got into being a full time actor as 0:42:57.480 --> 0:42:57.920 your career. 0:42:58.160 --> 0:43:00.000 Well, I never thought I always thought I would go 0:43:00.239 --> 0:43:03.360 into law and politics. Great just so you know, telling 0:43:03.400 --> 0:43:06.879 all my embarrassing story, bring that up if I ever run, Yeah, 0:43:07.840 --> 0:43:08.520 my story. 0:43:08.719 --> 0:43:12.000 People talking about you come into local politics and they're like. 0:43:12.000 --> 0:43:13.919 Oh, well, Rebel Wilson did shit in someone's yard. 0:43:13.920 --> 0:43:14.160 One. 0:43:14.239 --> 0:43:17.279 Yeah, that'll come up.

So I always thought 0:43:22.480 --> 0:43:24.839 I would go into Laura politics. I got into like 0:43:25.040 --> 0:43:28.560 the best law school after I got my hsc results 0:43:28.600 --> 0:43:30.880 and was like yep, and then I was selected.

I caught it in Reural, Mozambique, 0:44:08.040 --> 0:44:10.400 but it takes about two weeks to develop in your system. 0:44:10.440 --> 0:44:13.480 And then I was very, very sick, got hospitalized with 0:44:13.560 --> 0:44:15.719 another girl that was on the trip as well, and 0:44:15.760 --> 0:44:18.560 then it was bad.

So you're like rebeling, No, like you're 0:44:48.960 --> 0:44:50.920 not an actress likeause. 0:44:50.440 --> 0:44:51.640 I definitely didn't. 0:44:51.880 --> 0:44:55.520 I wasn't glamorous like I was, you know, an academic 0:44:55.560 --> 0:44:58.640 girl like I wasn't glamois. I didn't look like Nicole 0:44:58.719 --> 0:45:00.520 Kidman or Kate Blanchette or something. 0:45:00.600 --> 0:45:03.960 So your catalyst for getting into acting. Your catalyst, that 0:45:04.000 --> 0:45:05.799 was the driving force for you to go cool, I'm 0:45:05.840 --> 0:45:08.200 going to take this and pivot my career seriously. 0:45:08.600 --> 0:45:09.280 Was malaria? 0:45:09.480 --> 0:45:13.040 Yeah wow, because sometimes they say if you get really sick, 0:45:13.080 --> 0:45:14.799 if you have a life changing event like that, it 0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:17.360 can really change the course of your life. And I 0:45:17.440 --> 0:45:20.239 used to love Oprah Well, I mean, obviously I still 0:45:20.239 --> 0:45:22.440 love Opra. I shouldn't s I used to all the time. 0:45:22.520 --> 0:45:24.400 And I used to watch her every day in Africa 0:45:24.400 --> 0:45:26.719 because it was really hard. There was a lot going 0:45:26.719 --> 0:45:29.160 on in South Africa at the time and post apartheid 0:45:29.200 --> 0:45:30.960 and a lot of violence and everything, and there's a 0:45:31.000 --> 0:45:33.680 lot going on. And so I would watch Oprah every day, 0:45:34.160 --> 0:45:36.520 love it. And she'd say, oh, the universe like sometimes 0:45:36.520 --> 0:45:38.279 it gives you a whisper, and sometimes it's like a 0:45:38.320 --> 0:45:41.520 full blown rick wall falling on you with the message. 0:45:41.680 --> 0:45:43.480 And I was like, this is a message, like this 0:45:43.640 --> 0:45:45.800 is like this is what I should do with my life. 0:45:46.080 --> 0:45:47.759 So even though I was still in law school, I 0:45:47.800 --> 0:45:50.440 went back and I auditioned for drama, Like, no one 0:45:50.440 --> 0:45:52.440 would take me at the drama schools. 0:45:52.719 --> 0:45:53.879 Who'd you audition for nighter? 0:45:54.080 --> 0:45:57.200 Yeah? Maybe that firsty only just night, because I thought, well, 0:45:57.480 --> 0:45:59.880 at the chart, but yeah, just go to the best one. 0:46:00.080 --> 0:46:02.719 And because my law school was across the road, I thought, oh, 0:46:02.760 --> 0:46:05.600 maybe I'll do both. I am such an overachiever. Then yeah, 0:46:05.600 --> 0:46:07.480 they didn't accept me, so I just did. I did 0:46:07.560 --> 0:46:10.200 law and arts. So I did dinner and film subjects 0:46:10.200 --> 0:46:12.919 at my university at UNSW. 0:46:13.200 --> 0:46:14.520 And so did you give up trying to get into 0:46:14.520 --> 0:46:15.280 an acting school? 0:46:15.320 --> 0:46:16.640 Because not? It rejected no. 0:46:16.760 --> 0:46:19.560 Audition like four times, four years in or like a row. 0:46:19.640 --> 0:46:21.120 Can you own the audition once a year? 0:46:21.440 --> 0:46:24.040 Yes, there's only for the big drama schools. 0:46:23.719 --> 0:46:25.840 Once in audition and it was no for four years. 0:46:26.000 --> 0:46:30.839 Yeah, yeah, And I remember circling back to eating whole 0:46:30.840 --> 0:46:34.960 pizzas why. I have vivid memories each time after being 0:46:35.000 --> 0:46:37.319 rejected and told no, I went to the Pizza Hut 0:46:37.400 --> 0:46:39.240 or you can eat in the city and Short Street 0:46:39.600 --> 0:46:41.759 just smash the all you can eat buffet, And I 0:46:41.760 --> 0:46:44.400 remember vividly why I did that four years in a row. 0:46:44.800 --> 0:46:47.319 That was my go to And I guess because I 0:46:47.360 --> 0:46:49.200 lived out West I was like, well, if I'm in 0:46:49.239 --> 0:46:51.240 the city anyway, I'm going to go to the pizza 0:46:51.280 --> 0:46:55.640 hut you can eat and treat myself Eat my sorrows. Yeah. 0:46:56.080 --> 0:46:58.160 I think it's so interesting though, because like for so 0:46:58.239 --> 0:47:00.839 many people when you did write Mates, that was like, 0:47:01.120 --> 0:47:03.160 I mean know, you say, you weren't a household name 0:47:03.200 --> 0:47:05.680 and maybe not that easily recognizable, but I think you were. 0:47:05.800 --> 0:47:06.080 You were. 0:47:06.120 --> 0:47:08.359 I think you really were, And that was. 0:47:08.320 --> 0:47:10.479 The movie that kind of put you on the map 0:47:10.640 --> 0:47:12.920 for a lot of people in the outset. Even for me, 0:47:13.120 --> 0:47:15.040 I would have thought that there was like a real 0:47:15.080 --> 0:47:17.839 overnight success in you becoming this well known actor. But 0:47:17.880 --> 0:47:19.880 it wasn't an overnight success. There's so many years that 0:47:19.920 --> 0:47:20.440 go into this. 0:47:20.880 --> 0:47:23.240 Yeah. I think what a lot of people don't realize 0:47:23.280 --> 0:47:26.280 is the perception is sometimes that it's some overnight success, 0:47:26.320 --> 0:47:29.200 but the reality is, like every day of my adult life, 0:47:29.320 --> 0:47:33.080 I've worked hard to achieve this goal and like sacrificed 0:47:33.200 --> 0:47:35.080 a lot, which I think a lot of people don't realize. 0:47:35.120 --> 0:47:37.719 And I guess I started whilst I was also going 0:47:37.760 --> 0:47:40.040 to university, going to the Austraith theater for young people, 0:47:40.040 --> 0:47:43.080 and so I started in theater realized quite quickly like 0:47:43.160 --> 0:47:47.120 I wasn't the mold of successful actresses and I had 0:47:47.160 --> 0:47:49.680 to kind of create my own and so the way 0:47:49.719 --> 0:47:52.120 I did that was by writing my own plays and 0:47:52.160 --> 0:47:55.840 then putting them on and also casting myself obviously, but 0:47:56.480 --> 0:47:59.360 using my business brain and stuff to produce them and 0:48:00.120 --> 0:48:02.400 some other really talented young people. And I put on 0:48:02.440 --> 0:48:04.680 these plays and I was lucky. Like the very first 0:48:04.680 --> 0:48:07.359 play I wrote was just called The Westy Monologues, which 0:48:07.360 --> 0:48:10.680 is basically like monologues of girls in Sydney's western suburbs 0:48:10.920 --> 0:48:13.080 and then they all kind of interconnect by the end 0:48:13.640 --> 0:48:15.160 was a huge hit and it was on at the 0:48:15.160 --> 0:48:17.799 Bondai Pavilion, then it was on at Belvoir and then 0:48:17.840 --> 0:48:20.480 at Paramatta Riverside Theater that without one year, and Channel 0:48:20.480 --> 0:48:23.680 seven invested in it and gave me like lots of 0:48:23.680 --> 0:48:25.160 money at the time, I think it was not ninety 0:48:25.239 --> 0:48:28.560 thousand dollars to put it on professionally. And it showed me, Wow, 0:48:28.600 --> 0:48:32.120 if I put my own initiative and just be myself, 0:48:32.200 --> 0:48:34.480 be my unique version of myself. And one of my 0:48:34.600 --> 0:48:37.200 characters was a bit like Tulla, my character on Fat 0:48:37.239 --> 0:48:40.040 Pizza that I became kind of known for in Australia. 0:48:40.080 --> 0:48:42.880 And yeah, one of the characters was kind of morphed 0:48:42.880 --> 0:48:45.200 into Tulla a bit, and like yeah, and so it 0:48:45.239 --> 0:48:47.879 was kind of like me taking my own initiative. But 0:48:47.920 --> 0:48:51.000 the theater days, like if anyone who does theater in 0:48:51.040 --> 0:48:53.319 Sydney knows, like you're not in it for the money, 0:48:53.360 --> 0:48:55.480 You're in it for the love and the love of performing, 0:48:55.680 --> 0:48:58.719 and you're doing the stage craft and everything. And like 0:48:59.080 --> 0:49:02.120 sometimes I was performing in Sydney theaters and some notes 0:49:02.320 --> 0:49:05.200 there was less audience in the theater than was in 0:49:05.200 --> 0:49:07.759 the cast. Wow, And that's when you cancel. Have to 0:49:07.800 --> 0:49:10.640 cancel the performance, they're the rules. If there's less audience 0:49:10.680 --> 0:49:14.000 than cast members, you cancel. And that's happened to me 0:49:14.080 --> 0:49:16.560 several times. But I look back so fondly on those 0:49:16.640 --> 0:49:19.319 days because I wasn't professional then and I was just 0:49:19.480 --> 0:49:22.399 yah building up my career and my resume. And then 0:49:23.000 --> 0:49:26.080 how I got into television was at Pizza. Director Paul 0:49:26.080 --> 0:49:28.920 Fenix saw me in the play and that i'd written 0:49:28.960 --> 0:49:30.759 and gave me a job and it was awesome. And 0:49:30.800 --> 0:49:32.800 then from that show I got a lot of improv 0:49:32.920 --> 0:49:36.160 experience and on camera experience and then I just segued 0:49:36.239 --> 0:49:38.520 into doing things. But it always led from me taking 0:49:38.520 --> 0:49:42.600 my own initiative and writing and performing. Yeah, so I 0:49:42.640 --> 0:49:44.960 did all the hard yards like my first TV job 0:49:45.080 --> 0:49:48.080 was SBS, and like working my way up to more 0:49:48.080 --> 0:49:51.239 commercial television, and then eventually I knew, oh, I want 0:49:51.239 --> 0:49:52.839 to go to Hollywood. If I can make it in 0:49:52.840 --> 0:49:55.319 one Hollywood movie, that'd be pretty sweet. And then it 0:49:55.360 --> 0:49:56.040 all went from there. 0:49:56.360 --> 0:49:58.880 So you really had to create a space for yourself. 0:49:58.920 --> 0:49:59.719 That's what you had to do. 0:50:00.000 --> 0:50:03.160 Because I wasn't in any mold. I was like, you know, 0:50:03.280 --> 0:50:06.000 I was kind of feral looking. I think I had 0:50:06.040 --> 0:50:10.080 a snaggletude, like no joke been shaved down now, but yeah, 0:50:10.120 --> 0:50:12.399 it's real feral. I would have loved to have been 0:50:12.400 --> 0:50:14.560 famous at like twenty one, Like I would have loved 0:50:14.600 --> 0:50:17.319 that and to be recognized, but I just wasn't. It 0:50:17.360 --> 0:50:19.239 just took a long time, and it wasn't until I 0:50:19.280 --> 0:50:23.680 was about thirty two that I became like an international, 0:50:24.120 --> 0:50:27.239 internationally known actress pretty much, which is a bit late, 0:50:27.360 --> 0:50:27.760 I guess. 0:50:28.080 --> 0:50:30.040 Yeah, just hope it's not too late for me. 0:50:30.400 --> 0:50:32.680 How It's never too late, because I feel like if 0:50:32.680 --> 0:50:36.439 I never had that malaria induced hallucination, I probably would 0:50:36.480 --> 0:50:39.120 have been a lawyer and been great at it, and 0:50:39.160 --> 0:50:41.560 then maybe at about forty would have had some kind 0:50:41.560 --> 0:50:44.000 of midlife crisis and said I'm going to go into 0:50:44.040 --> 0:50:47.080 stand up comedy like a Rosean Bar or something like 0:50:47.080 --> 0:50:49.480 that would have been my route. I think I still 0:50:49.480 --> 0:50:52.000 would have probably found my way into it. I just yeah, 0:50:52.160 --> 0:50:54.919 the hallucination sped it up for me. I think. 0:50:55.360 --> 0:50:58.160 So you're already acting in Australia and you are forging 0:50:58.760 --> 0:50:59.600 forging career. 0:50:59.440 --> 0:51:00.720 Here and creating your own roles. 0:51:00.920 --> 0:51:04.360 Yeah, you would cast me Laura. Like I went into 0:51:04.400 --> 0:51:06.520 the agency and I was like, oh, you don't want 0:51:06.520 --> 0:51:08.400 to get an agent because all my friends did at 0:51:08.440 --> 0:51:11.160 the time. And they're like, well, we could never see 0:51:11.200 --> 0:51:14.520 you on Home and Away and I'm like, well, because 0:51:14.520 --> 0:51:16.080 they're the only roles I didn't want to be on 0:51:16.160 --> 0:51:18.200 Home and Away, Like yeah, I mean I love Home 0:51:18.239 --> 0:51:20.880 and Away. Like god, amazing people have come out of 0:51:20.880 --> 0:51:23.440 that show. But like, that wasn't me. I wasn't a 0:51:23.440 --> 0:51:25.000 beach babe, Like I just wasn't that. 0:51:25.400 --> 0:51:26.719 You didn't want to go do your bay Watch? 0:51:26.760 --> 0:51:29.319 Then no, I didn't because that would have been no 0:51:29.360 --> 0:51:30.560 one would have wanted to watch that. 0:51:31.440 --> 0:51:34.600 But also, yeah, with hitting these roadblocks in Australia, you're 0:51:34.600 --> 0:51:36.799 coming up to knows all the time, what then makes 0:51:36.840 --> 0:51:38.799 you go all right, Well, fuck this small pond, I'm 0:51:38.800 --> 0:51:40.719 going to go to Hollywood. Like what gives you the 0:51:40.719 --> 0:51:43.840 confidence to say I'm going to go and try. 0:51:43.640 --> 0:51:45.759 It over there, which is a hell of a lot 0:51:45.840 --> 0:51:46.560 more competitive. 0:51:46.760 --> 0:51:49.680 Yeah, I just I had done thirteen TV shows in 0:51:49.719 --> 0:51:52.480 Australia by that point, and I'd gotten a big contract 0:51:52.560 --> 0:51:54.920 on Channel seven for like a three year job, a 0:51:54.960 --> 0:51:57.960 great show. And I was like, is this going to 0:51:58.040 --> 0:52:00.479 be my life? Or am I gonna at all? Wanted 0:52:00.520 --> 0:52:03.160 to be in Hollywood movies? And I was like, or 0:52:03.280 --> 0:52:05.680 is now my chance? And so I rejected the big 0:52:05.760 --> 0:52:10.200 time Channel seven contract and left and sold every single 0:52:10.239 --> 0:52:13.880 thing I had, my apartment in Melbourne, my car, my computer, 0:52:14.040 --> 0:52:16.560 Like I had to sell everything because you need a 0:52:16.560 --> 0:52:19.759 lot of money to go over and you know you're 0:52:19.760 --> 0:52:22.520 not going to be able to work much and you 0:52:22.520 --> 0:52:24.759 don't earn much when you're first in Hollywood. So I 0:52:24.840 --> 0:52:27.719 like sold every single thing I had, even my toast, 0:52:27.880 --> 0:52:31.400 like I autographed it or something. Got twenty bucks. Everything 0:52:31.480 --> 0:52:34.480 went everything whent my mom came to help me. We 0:52:34.520 --> 0:52:37.680 sold everything on eBay and in one weekend everybody just 0:52:37.719 --> 0:52:40.480 came to my apartment and because I was kind of 0:52:40.520 --> 0:52:43.280 a bit known, from Australian TV show, So I guess 0:52:43.400 --> 0:52:46.880 my stuff was worth something. And then I sold every 0:52:46.920 --> 0:52:49.600 single thing. I was like, yeah, I'm not coming back. 0:52:49.760 --> 0:52:52.040 Well known enough, but not well known enough or not 0:52:52.080 --> 0:52:55.600 big enough here to obviously have an excessive amount of cash, 0:52:55.640 --> 0:52:57.000 beer cash to go to Hollywood. 0:52:57.080 --> 0:52:59.800 No, no, you need you. It's like you're a sieve. 0:53:00.200 --> 0:53:02.799 What's that thing A see where you deceive money? You 0:53:02.840 --> 0:53:05.359 know that thing that you put flower in your Yeah, okay, yeah, 0:53:05.400 --> 0:53:07.760 you like that. It just needs money. It just falls 0:53:07.760 --> 0:53:12.080 through because you just need money for everything and you can't. 0:53:12.080 --> 0:53:14.239 You're not really earning money, so the money just like 0:53:14.640 --> 0:53:16.720 drains from your account. 0:53:16.320 --> 0:53:17.520 And you don't know when you're going to get your 0:53:17.560 --> 0:53:19.000 first role over there as well. 0:53:19.080 --> 0:53:20.440 Yeah, I was very lucky. 0:53:20.440 --> 0:53:23.560 Bridesmaids came like three months when you took on Bridesmaids, 0:53:23.760 --> 0:53:26.120 did you know at the time how hugely successful it 0:53:26.160 --> 0:53:26.600 was going to be? 0:53:26.920 --> 0:53:30.719 I hope. The problem is the cast was so so amazing, 0:53:31.239 --> 0:53:33.600 and I had four scenes in the movie, and I 0:53:33.680 --> 0:53:38.280 was like, is four scenes enough? And I remember Jonah 0:53:38.360 --> 0:53:40.480 Hill had one scene I believe in forty year Old 0:53:40.560 --> 0:53:43.279 Virgin and like and then skyrocketed from that and I 0:53:43.320 --> 0:53:46.040 was like, I knew, I had a feeling I was 0:53:47.560 --> 0:53:50.759 gonna make a little splash, but like I was like, 0:53:51.000 --> 0:53:54.360 is it enough, because it's I wasn't. I auditioned for 0:53:54.360 --> 0:53:57.200 the Melissa McCarthy roll and didn't get that was second 0:53:57.400 --> 0:54:00.000 place in that so they added me into the film. 0:54:00.040 --> 0:54:02.040 But I didn't really have a big role because it 0:54:02.200 --> 0:54:05.000 just added in, and so I was like, is that enough? 0:54:05.760 --> 0:54:09.239 But I thought, yes, it will be. And then I 0:54:09.280 --> 0:54:12.040 had to wait essentially a year until that movie came 0:54:12.080 --> 0:54:14.600 out long ast year. It takes about a year from 0:54:14.600 --> 0:54:16.919 when you film it to come out. And I had 0:54:17.120 --> 0:54:19.359 no money. I was living on sixty dollars a week 0:54:19.440 --> 0:54:22.439 for my just for my food and entertainment, which I'd 0:54:22.600 --> 0:54:24.560 see one movie a week at the cinemas and then 0:54:24.600 --> 0:54:26.759 I would use the rest on food because that's all 0:54:26.800 --> 0:54:29.760 I had budgeted for because it was a pretty Yeah, 0:54:29.920 --> 0:54:32.799 I earned thirty five hundred dollars on Bridesmaids, and that 0:54:32.920 --> 0:54:34.920 was what I had to pay to the Union so 0:54:35.719 --> 0:54:38.800 to join the Union in America, So I earned nothing. 0:54:39.040 --> 0:54:41.040 That's what it made from that movie. I think there'll 0:54:41.080 --> 0:54:43.960 be so many people that shook to the core to. 0:54:43.960 --> 0:54:48.240 Hear three thousand, five hundred dollars for that movie. 0:54:48.400 --> 0:54:50.160 Yeah, yeah, I am shocked. 0:54:50.360 --> 0:54:52.759 Yeah, it's crazy, isn't it. But that was the platform, 0:54:52.800 --> 0:54:55.400 that was the that was the kickstart. And then next 0:54:55.480 --> 0:54:58.279 up was Pitch Perfect, and well, Pitch Pervy. 0:54:58.080 --> 0:54:59.600 Was one of the movies I booked off the back 0:54:59.600 --> 0:55:02.040 of Bride's and I booked six movies off the back. 0:55:01.840 --> 0:55:03.840 Of that, Off that one too, of those little scenes 0:55:03.960 --> 0:55:09.120 two weeks and then your iconic role is fat Amy. Yeah, 0:55:09.160 --> 0:55:10.520 do you know? I bought it on DVD. 0:55:10.680 --> 0:55:12.720 It was like my favorite movie and I used to watch. 0:55:12.560 --> 0:55:14.000 It on DVD at home all the time. 0:55:14.080 --> 0:55:16.879 Taste, I do have critics. I mean, they're the most 0:55:16.920 --> 0:55:20.680 successful musical comedy films of all time. They beat School 0:55:20.680 --> 0:55:23.280 of Rock, and I forget what the other reigning champion 0:55:23.440 --> 0:55:24.439 was before we came along. 0:55:24.480 --> 0:55:27.040 Who cares because they're not up there anymore. Pitch Perfect, 0:55:27.280 --> 0:55:28.960 Get off? But what was it like? 0:55:29.000 --> 0:55:31.400 What was that process like filming Pitch Perfect? What was 0:55:31.400 --> 0:55:34.359 it like being in such a huge film where not 0:55:34.440 --> 0:55:37.759 only was it so hugely watched, but like your you 0:55:37.920 --> 0:55:40.160 were well and truly recognized by that point in time. 0:55:40.320 --> 0:55:42.959 It was awesome. It was I think I was telling 0:55:43.000 --> 0:55:45.759 you Britt this yesterday when we're playing tennis. But I 0:55:45.800 --> 0:55:49.520 had auditioned as an American for Pitch Perfect, and then 0:55:49.560 --> 0:55:52.920 I was really tired in dance rehearsals for me. We 0:55:53.200 --> 0:55:55.520 practiced the routines and then the director had heard me 0:55:55.600 --> 0:55:59.000 talking with my real Australian accent, and then he's like, 0:55:59.040 --> 0:56:01.359 you have to do that in the movie, and I'm like, no, no, no, 0:56:01.440 --> 0:56:05.200 I'm an actress. I have prepared this American character called 0:56:05.239 --> 0:56:08.440 fat Amy, and I'd already sung, recorded all my vocals 0:56:08.440 --> 0:56:11.920 in American accent and everything. And he's like, no, I 0:56:11.920 --> 0:56:14.920 have a feeling like you're gonna be Australian in it, 0:56:14.960 --> 0:56:17.640 and I go no, because I just I don't know. 0:56:18.160 --> 0:56:20.040 I just wanted to be an actress and play someone 0:56:20.040 --> 0:56:23.439 a bit different to who I was. And then he's like, nah, 0:56:23.440 --> 0:56:26.080 you're gonna be more distinctive, and he was totally right, 0:56:26.480 --> 0:56:28.399 and then I kind of really stood out fat Amy 0:56:28.480 --> 0:56:31.280 was only the seventh or eighth biggest character in the script, 0:56:31.680 --> 0:56:33.600 and then she kind of, you know, I kind of 0:56:33.640 --> 0:56:36.759 embellished the role quite a bit and then got more 0:56:36.800 --> 0:56:38.279 screen time. It wouldn't have. 0:56:38.320 --> 0:56:41.279 Been the same if fat Amy was American. I don't 0:56:41.280 --> 0:56:43.400 feel like as a viewer it would have had the 0:56:43.440 --> 0:56:45.560 same effect. And I think what you just said and 0:56:45.600 --> 0:56:47.440 the director said, you wouldn't have stood out as much 0:56:47.480 --> 0:56:51.040 because especially at that time, Australians weren't really allowed to 0:56:51.080 --> 0:56:52.600 acting with their native. 0:56:52.840 --> 0:56:55.040 I was right on the cusp of well, they call 0:56:55.080 --> 0:56:57.760 it now the Game of Thrones effect, where American audiences 0:56:57.800 --> 0:57:00.239 are much more used to hearing foreign accents, but that 0:57:00.440 --> 0:57:04.000 certainly wasn't the case when I moved over there. And yeah, 0:57:04.000 --> 0:57:06.640 in Bridesmaids, I've done it like a British accent to 0:57:06.680 --> 0:57:09.319 fit in with my buddy Matt Lucas. But like, yeah, 0:57:09.360 --> 0:57:12.120 it was kind of very fortuitous because getting to kind 0:57:12.160 --> 0:57:16.120 of almost be myself about a like it's obviously a character, 0:57:16.280 --> 0:57:18.640 but you know, and you push things for comic effect. 0:57:18.680 --> 0:57:21.160 But it was like it was just the best fun. 0:57:21.360 --> 0:57:24.000 And those girls, like we have a group text that 0:57:24.040 --> 0:57:26.880 we almost on a daily basis. There's things going on 0:57:26.920 --> 0:57:28.919 in the group text about how much we love each other. 0:57:29.200 --> 0:57:31.960 The Bellas how much? Yeah, how much I can show you. 0:57:32.040 --> 0:57:33.440 I can show you some of it. Let me get 0:57:33.440 --> 0:57:36.400 it out. Yeah, it's called Bella's Oh my. This is 0:57:36.440 --> 0:57:40.640 from yesterday because Brittany was sending like out little cute 0:57:40.720 --> 0:57:43.520 videos of us. We send like each other little videos 0:57:43.520 --> 0:57:45.040 of our sunset and stuff. 0:57:45.280 --> 0:57:47.240 That's so that's years down the track. 0:57:47.400 --> 0:57:50.360 Yeah, and this is just yesterday. We're talking about we're 0:57:50.360 --> 0:57:52.480 going to do something for Gallon Time's Day next year. 0:57:52.520 --> 0:57:56.760 We're already organizing just spread love to each other. We 0:57:56.880 --> 0:57:59.800 all like it's such good friends. And we're so different, 0:57:59.880 --> 0:58:01.640 like the Ten of Us girls and the Bellas are 0:58:01.680 --> 0:58:05.560 so different, but there's something about when we come together 0:58:05.720 --> 0:58:07.600 and we just have the best time and we do 0:58:07.640 --> 0:58:10.520 group Rinians all the time, like you know, we're so busy, 0:58:10.560 --> 0:58:14.240 but your go all times of yeah, friendship goals, yeah yeah, 0:58:14.240 --> 0:58:16.720 and we hit up the tech like almost every day. 0:58:16.760 --> 0:58:19.160 There's some there's some Bella's text about something. 0:58:19.360 --> 0:58:21.040 Isn't it pretty amazing though that Like I think that 0:58:21.120 --> 0:58:23.840 authenticity is what shows on screen as well, like as 0:58:23.920 --> 0:58:26.720 much as obviously like everyone can play them. 0:58:26.720 --> 0:58:30.520 Having fun on an offset like I mean pitchev One. 0:58:30.600 --> 0:58:33.000 I mean I was the more studious because I remember 0:58:33.040 --> 0:58:35.640 I was writing a pilot at the same time, which 0:58:35.680 --> 0:58:38.520 then became my show on American TV called Super Fun Night. 0:58:38.920 --> 0:58:41.080 So I was the more studious one, and then Esther Dean, 0:58:41.440 --> 0:58:45.520 who's the African American Bella. She is a huge songwriter 0:58:45.640 --> 0:58:49.440 so has written massive hits for Nicki Minaj Rihana Beyoncet, 0:58:49.600 --> 0:58:52.640 like she's just Katie, but she wrote Katy Perry fireworks. 0:58:53.120 --> 0:58:54.880 Half of the songs. We sing him hitch perfect to 0:58:54.920 --> 0:58:57.800 her songs. So we were the more studious ones. But God, 0:58:57.840 --> 0:59:00.480 the other ones partied so hard. 0:59:00.800 --> 0:59:02.960 Are they gonna hate that you're out in there this podcast? 0:59:03.120 --> 0:59:05.000 No, because they just like to have a good time 0:59:05.040 --> 0:59:07.960 and whatever. And we were all quite young then. I 0:59:08.000 --> 0:59:10.320 mean by the third one, I wasn't. I definitely wasn't 0:59:10.320 --> 0:59:13.640 going out that many nights. We were working hard, but 0:59:13.760 --> 0:59:15.640 like God, when we were young, and then I remember 0:59:15.720 --> 0:59:18.200 Adam Devine who plays a bumper, Like God, he'd get 0:59:18.200 --> 0:59:21.520 into it every night. I was like, guys like that. 0:59:21.680 --> 0:59:23.840 We definitely just had so much fun, whether it was 0:59:23.880 --> 0:59:27.400 weird went tailgating with the football or something, or going 0:59:27.440 --> 0:59:30.000 to dance clubs and just dancing it up, and we 0:59:30.160 --> 0:59:32.800 just had a ball. Like on those movies. 0:59:33.000 --> 0:59:35.320 Do you have a moment when you're doing a film 0:59:35.360 --> 0:59:37.480 like this where you're like, holy shit, I've made it, 0:59:37.600 --> 0:59:39.600 Like this is I have fucking made it. 0:59:39.720 --> 0:59:42.240 Yeah, what was I didn't know Pitch Peviect was going 0:59:42.320 --> 0:59:45.240 to be like a as big as it ended up being. 0:59:45.440 --> 0:59:47.680 But I just knew this is the type of movie 0:59:47.720 --> 0:59:49.880 I want to watch, So I knew that for sure, 0:59:50.040 --> 0:59:52.760 and so I knew, like i'd hoped it would be good, 0:59:52.800 --> 0:59:55.400 but you never know if it's gonna be gonna be 0:59:55.480 --> 0:59:58.680 like that massive. But I'm so glad it was like, 0:59:58.840 --> 1:00:01.040 they're they're the best movie, and obviously we want to 1:00:01.040 --> 1:00:04.040 make more, but that's that decision is not in our 1:00:04.120 --> 1:00:05.200 hands unfortunately. 1:00:05.400 --> 1:00:07.720 So was there an actual moment in your career where 1:00:07.760 --> 1:00:09.280 you realized was that what you were being followed by 1:00:09.320 --> 1:00:10.760 paparazzi were people recognized? 1:00:10.880 --> 1:00:14.160 So it was a day Pitch Perfect one came out 1:00:14.360 --> 1:00:17.600 and I was living with Matt Lucas in la and 1:00:18.480 --> 1:00:19.760 at his awesome house. 1:00:20.480 --> 1:00:21.760 He just gave you a place to stay. 1:00:21.960 --> 1:00:24.320 Well, yeah, we played roommates in Bridesmaids and then we 1:00:24.360 --> 1:00:27.760 became roommates in real life. Like it was really funny. 1:00:28.400 --> 1:00:30.680 It would freak people out who'd seen the movie and 1:00:30.720 --> 1:00:33.280 they're like, oh my god, you guys are actually roommates, 1:00:33.320 --> 1:00:37.560 and we're like yeah, yeah. Yeah. So basically I went 1:00:37.600 --> 1:00:39.640 from being able to go to the shops and stuff 1:00:40.240 --> 1:00:43.240 being pretty much unrecognizable, like being able to shit in 1:00:43.280 --> 1:00:45.919 people's front lawns and get away with it, to then 1:00:46.240 --> 1:00:49.800 Pitch Perfect comes out instant like paparazzi out the front 1:00:49.840 --> 1:00:52.440 of the house, Like couldn't go anywhere, could no longer 1:00:52.520 --> 1:00:55.920 like go in your sweats to the supermarket, or couldn't 1:00:55.920 --> 1:00:58.760 really go to shopping malls. At that point, it was crazy. 1:00:59.200 --> 1:01:02.120 And then I just when in the bathtob and I 1:01:02.160 --> 1:01:06.040 was like, my life has changed forever now goose Because 1:01:06.080 --> 1:01:09.840 I never I didn't want to be famous, like I 1:01:09.880 --> 1:01:12.280 wanted to be recognized, I guess, but I didn't really 1:01:12.760 --> 1:01:14.840 that was never the goal to become famous. I guess. 1:01:14.840 --> 1:01:17.240 You just wanted to be respected and like recognized and 1:01:17.280 --> 1:01:20.240 stuff for what you do. And then when it happens, 1:01:20.920 --> 1:01:23.480 you're almost like, oh, can I take it back, like 1:01:23.680 --> 1:01:26.560 or could I go back to how life was before? 1:01:26.920 --> 1:01:29.000 Because it's full on when it does happen to you. 1:01:29.040 --> 1:01:31.200 And that's why I feel for any of the younger 1:01:31.280 --> 1:01:33.320 kids who have it happened to them when they're like 1:01:33.400 --> 1:01:36.560 sixteen seventeen, like the young pop stars or the young actors. 1:01:37.080 --> 1:01:40.680 I just it's very because I was like thirty one, 1:01:40.760 --> 1:01:42.920 thirty two and it was full on and I was 1:01:42.920 --> 1:01:45.480 in the bathtub kind of crying, but only for about 1:01:45.480 --> 1:01:48.360 thirty minutes because I was like, my life has changed 1:01:48.360 --> 1:01:52.120 now and I can't I can't go places and certain things. 1:01:52.800 --> 1:01:54.880 But it was also, I mean, it was awesome to 1:01:54.880 --> 1:01:56.600 be in such a huge hit as well. So the 1:01:56.640 --> 1:01:59.720 positive is far outweigh the negatives, I think. But that 1:01:59.840 --> 1:02:02.240 was you literally feel it, you sense it that, you go, 1:02:02.320 --> 1:02:04.040 oh my god, my life is not and. 1:02:04.000 --> 1:02:06.880 You can't really take it back. Like once, once you're 1:02:06.920 --> 1:02:08.640 out there in your name and your recognite, well, you 1:02:08.720 --> 1:02:09.440 can't rewind that. 1:02:09.520 --> 1:02:12.360 Even that you see in Hollywood through people. 1:02:12.080 --> 1:02:15.040 That haven't filmed or made anything for years and they're 1:02:15.080 --> 1:02:17.560 still always followed, They're still gonna be papped, they're still 1:02:17.560 --> 1:02:17.880 in there. 1:02:18.000 --> 1:02:21.160 Like Alicia Silverstone, who I just worked with on senior year, 1:02:21.680 --> 1:02:24.160 who's just the most gorgeous girl. And I remember her 1:02:24.280 --> 1:02:28.200 from Clueless obviously so iconic, so recognizable, and yeah, and 1:02:28.240 --> 1:02:30.400 she hasn't actually worked, but god, in the moment you 1:02:30.440 --> 1:02:32.880 see her, you're like, oh my god, Alicia, like hi, 1:02:33.040 --> 1:02:36.080 Like she must get it and people quoting the movie 1:02:36.120 --> 1:02:38.160 to her and stuff.

What is it like being given that 1:03:04.960 --> 1:03:08.920 title but also having such a well known character then 1:03:08.960 --> 1:03:10.840 being able to break out of that character to play 1:03:10.880 --> 1:03:12.240 different roles in other movies? 1:03:12.440 --> 1:03:13.280 Is that challenging? 1:03:13.600 --> 1:03:16.240 I had, weirdly had a character on Australian TV called 1:03:16.280 --> 1:03:19.080 Fat Mandy when I did a skept show called The Wedge. 1:03:19.080 --> 1:03:22.760 So it wasn't actually it wasn't like. I remember when 1:03:22.840 --> 1:03:24.920 Kay Kennon reached out to me about the film, she's 1:03:24.960 --> 1:03:27.240 the writer of the films, and she was like, Oh, 1:03:27.240 --> 1:03:29.680 I don't mean to offend you, but there's this character. 1:03:30.480 --> 1:03:32.520 First of all, it wasn't even offensive at all, because 1:03:32.560 --> 1:03:34.480 when I did look at the script, even though fat 1:03:34.480 --> 1:03:37.920 Amy wasn't the biggest character, to me, she was the funniest, 1:03:38.320 --> 1:03:40.600 and I was like, oh, yeah, you know, that's like 1:03:40.880 --> 1:03:44.120 awesome to have on paper what I thought was the 1:03:44.120 --> 1:03:46.920 funniest role. So being bigger, I was kind of a 1:03:47.040 --> 1:03:50.439 normal size, maybe a bit on the athletic side when 1:03:50.440 --> 1:03:52.520 I was a teenager, and then I had something called 1:03:52.560 --> 1:03:55.200 PCOS and I gained One of the symptoms of that 1:03:55.360 --> 1:03:57.600 is you can gain weight quite rapidly when you're about 1:03:57.640 --> 1:04:00.920 twenty and twenty one. So like, obviously I knew I 1:04:00.960 --> 1:04:04.000 was a bigger girl, and I was like, you just 1:04:04.040 --> 1:04:06.320 got to embrace it. You got to in comedy. And 1:04:06.320 --> 1:04:09.360 that's why I went more into comedy acting because I 1:04:09.480 --> 1:04:13.120 knew logically and also like i'd done this subject and 1:04:13.440 --> 1:04:16.480 a university called Comedy and Power, and it was really 1:04:16.520 --> 1:04:20.200 interesting about how much power comedians can have and that 1:04:20.520 --> 1:04:22.919 people often like to laugh at people that they don't 1:04:22.920 --> 1:04:25.600 want to have sex with. So normally you'll find a 1:04:25.640 --> 1:04:28.920 lot of comedians like this is like some psychological thing 1:04:29.040 --> 1:04:33.520 is some comedians often have something that's physical about them 1:04:33.560 --> 1:04:36.760 that's abnormal a bit whether they're super tall, or they've 1:04:36.760 --> 1:04:40.880 got a giant nose, or they're bigger ladies. Those people 1:04:40.920 --> 1:04:44.680 tend to go better in comedy. So I turned what 1:04:44.880 --> 1:04:46.920 was seen by a lot of agents and people in 1:04:46.960 --> 1:04:49.080 the business at the time of being a bigger girl 1:04:49.520 --> 1:04:53.920 as a disadvantage into my advantage. And I was like, yep, okay, 1:04:54.040 --> 1:04:56.800 I'm going to go specialize in comedy in Nicole Kim 1:04:56.920 --> 1:04:59.240 and gave me a scholarship. I went to New York 1:04:59.280 --> 1:05:02.080 to study comedy school. I was like, I'm gonna even 1:05:02.080 --> 1:05:04.200 though I did want to become the next Dame Judi Dench, 1:05:04.280 --> 1:05:06.120 I was like, but I'm a bigger girl, I'll go 1:05:06.200 --> 1:05:11.720 into comedy very serious, yeahrama, yeah, yeah. I didn't think 1:05:11.760 --> 1:05:14.560 I was funny at all. I like, I did not, 1:05:15.000 --> 1:05:17.960 which is funny, Like I did not think that. And 1:05:17.960 --> 1:05:19.880 then but I knew I was smart and a lot 1:05:19.880 --> 1:05:22.320 of behind a lot of comedians is you know, a 1:05:22.360 --> 1:05:24.640 really good brain. And so I was like, okay, well, 1:05:24.680 --> 1:05:26.800 I feel like I can do it. But it was 1:05:26.840 --> 1:05:28.800 purely because of my size. I go I got a 1:05:28.880 --> 1:05:31.560 much better chance being in comedy and making fun of 1:05:31.600 --> 1:05:35.760 myself or you know, laughing at myself and making others laugh, 1:05:35.960 --> 1:05:39.040 and so being fat Amy, I don't know, it was 1:05:39.080 --> 1:05:41.640 such a privilege because I never saw it as a negative. 1:05:41.720 --> 1:05:45.000 I was like the confident chick. Was it hard sometimes, 1:05:45.040 --> 1:05:47.919 like some of my co stars in Pitch, like Anna 1:05:48.040 --> 1:05:51.360 and Brittany, like they're so tiny and like I literally 1:05:51.400 --> 1:05:54.520 I feel like I weighed three times more than them. 1:05:54.680 --> 1:05:57.320 And at times sometimes you'd be like whatever, everyone's just 1:05:57.360 --> 1:05:59.960 born differently in different bodies, and that was my body 1:06:00.080 --> 1:06:03.160 and that's their, and we just celebrate all of each other. 1:06:03.240 --> 1:06:06.480 And Bella's means like beautiful and Italian. We're all beautiful 1:06:06.480 --> 1:06:09.520 and whatever. And I just loved being fat Amy. I 1:06:09.600 --> 1:06:12.160 love like that was me and that so I just 1:06:12.320 --> 1:06:15.880 I don't know, I love playing that character and the 1:06:15.960 --> 1:06:20.080 whole comedy thing. I think it is interesting psychologically about 1:06:20.520 --> 1:06:23.120 how people go into get into comedy and stuff, and 1:06:23.160 --> 1:06:26.400 you often use, yeah, something that people can see as 1:06:26.400 --> 1:06:28.960 a physical disadvantage to your advantage. 1:06:29.760 --> 1:06:31.640 I think it's just a really important message just to 1:06:31.640 --> 1:06:33.600 not brush over it. But what you just said for 1:06:33.800 --> 1:06:37.560 everyone listening is that there is so much power in 1:06:37.680 --> 1:06:41.320 just accepting and celebrating who you are. Because if you 1:06:41.480 --> 1:06:43.640 tried to go to Hollywood, and be something you're not. 1:06:43.720 --> 1:06:45.400 If you tried to go and say everyone else is 1:06:45.440 --> 1:06:47.160 doing and looking like this, you wouldn't have made it. 1:06:47.520 --> 1:06:49.680 Nothing would have happened for you because you you. 1:06:49.680 --> 1:06:52.919 Would chose to imagine if I tried to somehow look 1:06:53.040 --> 1:06:55.000 like Kate Blanchard on a cockit, I know, I'm just 1:06:55.120 --> 1:06:57.720 using it because there's such you know, big names, well, 1:06:57.720 --> 1:07:00.400 I wouldn't have succeeded. I had to be my like, 1:07:00.440 --> 1:07:03.240 I had to be me. And one of the things 1:07:03.240 --> 1:07:05.640 that I had going for me at acting school back 1:07:05.680 --> 1:07:08.200 in the day is that I wasn't the most talented, 1:07:08.200 --> 1:07:10.360 Like I really wasn't. At the Australian Theater for young people, 1:07:10.360 --> 1:07:12.600 there were so many more people that were way more 1:07:12.640 --> 1:07:15.360 gifted than me. But I was unique and I was 1:07:15.400 --> 1:07:19.360 an individual and I luckily had that fostered at ATAP 1:07:19.600 --> 1:07:22.960 and if I hadn't ha done that, like because therefore 1:07:22.960 --> 1:07:25.880 when I rocked up in America, I get signed like 1:07:25.920 --> 1:07:28.560 my second day in America because I was different and 1:07:28.600 --> 1:07:31.720 I was myself and I was like very true to myself, 1:07:31.800 --> 1:07:34.480 and there really wasn't big actresses like at that time, 1:07:34.680 --> 1:07:37.320 there was like Melissa McCarthy, and I don't even know 1:07:37.360 --> 1:07:39.320 if there was anybody else at that point. 1:07:39.200 --> 1:07:40.880 Not really, there really wasn't. 1:07:41.040 --> 1:07:43.880 Yeah, So I rode what other people thought as a 1:07:43.920 --> 1:07:47.800 disadvantage into my total advantage and made millions millions of 1:07:47.840 --> 1:07:51.080 dollars doing it, and also had an amazing time and 1:07:51.240 --> 1:07:54.680 loved being I love I was so body confident and 1:07:54.680 --> 1:07:57.600 body positive at being a size sixteen to eighteen, which 1:07:57.600 --> 1:07:59.880 I have been for most of my life, and then 1:08:00.160 --> 1:08:02.400 so now I'm what like an eight or ten or 1:08:02.440 --> 1:08:04.960 something in American sizes. It was awesome. 1:08:05.040 --> 1:08:08.720 So was there was there a time in Hollywood? Obviously 1:08:08.800 --> 1:08:10.960 that was what you became famous for. You were accepted 1:08:11.000 --> 1:08:13.080 for who you were. Was there ever a time that 1:08:13.640 --> 1:08:16.519 people in power, people in the industry fat shamed you 1:08:16.640 --> 1:08:19.600 even though this is what you were there? You know, 1:08:19.640 --> 1:08:21.479 you were who you were, you were getting these amazing roles, 1:08:21.520 --> 1:08:24.200 You're an amazing actress. Did you ever feel like you're 1:08:24.240 --> 1:08:25.559 being stereotyped or. 1:08:25.880 --> 1:08:28.680 It's so weird because a lot of actresses have some 1:08:28.760 --> 1:08:32.080 kind of fat shaming story, particularly around photo shoots. I 1:08:32.120 --> 1:08:35.559 only had one story where like I rocked up. This 1:08:35.680 --> 1:08:38.200 was before I have my world's most amazing styl as 1:08:38.240 --> 1:08:41.519 Elizabeth Stewart who does do Cate Blanchett and Julia Roberts 1:08:41.560 --> 1:08:45.120 and Yola Davis and all these amazing Sandra Bullock everyone. 1:08:45.640 --> 1:08:47.759 Before I'd met her, I didn't really have a stylist, 1:08:47.800 --> 1:08:49.519 and I remember rocking up to a photo shoot and 1:08:49.560 --> 1:08:52.439 they didn't have any clothes to fit me, and so 1:08:52.520 --> 1:08:59.280 they literally put this scarf around you. You're like, and 1:08:59.360 --> 1:09:02.880 you can still, yeah, you can find yeah, yeah, Well 1:09:03.280 --> 1:09:05.519 it was just me with the scarff, like your silk 1:09:05.600 --> 1:09:09.439 kind of scarf draped around me, and I'm like, ah, 1:09:09.840 --> 1:09:13.200 but weirdly, I don't know where the people just didn't 1:09:13.240 --> 1:09:16.400 mess with me because they knew I was very secure 1:09:16.479 --> 1:09:19.400 in myself. It's the ones that are not so secure 1:09:19.439 --> 1:09:22.160 that can get really messed up by things in particular 1:09:22.240 --> 1:09:25.040 like photoshoots. But then I teamed up with my amazing 1:09:25.080 --> 1:09:27.040 stylus and I was the only plus sized girl that 1:09:27.120 --> 1:09:31.559 she had on her books. But I never had that situation. 1:09:31.680 --> 1:09:34.120 She never didn't have clothes that wouldn't fit me like. 1:09:34.200 --> 1:09:38.519 She'd always have options and gorgeous, glamorous options with from 1:09:38.640 --> 1:09:42.560 great designers. So she hooked me up with Javonci, for example, 1:09:42.960 --> 1:09:46.000 and they made me custom dresses and things like so 1:09:46.080 --> 1:09:48.800 it was really I don't know, it was never really 1:09:48.880 --> 1:09:51.400 an issue, but I know a lot of women have struggled. 1:09:51.800 --> 1:09:54.080 I only really had that one experience, which is rare 1:09:54.160 --> 1:09:56.800 because a lot of girls who have normal size, like 1:09:56.840 --> 1:10:00.360 a normal size, get told there they're fad or whatever, yeah, 1:10:00.400 --> 1:10:01.000 and shamed. 1:10:01.240 --> 1:10:03.120 I'm going to look for the scar photo after this. 1:10:03.520 --> 1:10:03.720 Yeah. 1:10:03.800 --> 1:10:06.960 But I guess like the antithesis of that, when you 1:10:07.080 --> 1:10:10.200 decided you've made it, you know you've got your place 1:10:10.200 --> 1:10:12.000 in Hollywood, and you're like, Okay, I'm going to go 1:10:12.080 --> 1:10:12.720 for my year of health. 1:10:12.720 --> 1:10:13.639 I'm going to change everything. 1:10:13.680 --> 1:10:16.160 I'm going to get healthy and happy and all the 1:10:16.160 --> 1:10:20.240 rest of it? Was that hard for you in terms 1:10:20.280 --> 1:10:22.720 of people saying, well, you know, that's not your role 1:10:22.720 --> 1:10:24.880 in Hollywood. We don't really want you to change because 1:10:24.920 --> 1:10:25.200 this is. 1:10:25.200 --> 1:10:30.040 Who you are. I definitely had people not being supportive 1:10:30.280 --> 1:10:33.240 of that life change when I told announced it's going 1:10:33.320 --> 1:10:35.120 to be my year of health. I guess because like 1:10:35.680 --> 1:10:38.559 being bigger, I didn't have any serious disease or whatever. 1:10:38.680 --> 1:10:41.240 I was getting checked for diabetes and things like that, 1:10:41.280 --> 1:10:44.519 but I didn't have anything. But I knew secretly, like 1:10:44.560 --> 1:10:47.320 my emotional eating was unhealthy and. 1:10:47.640 --> 1:10:48.799 All you can eat pizza buffet. 1:10:48.920 --> 1:10:51.760 Oh yeah, I knew, like that is not rebel like 1:10:51.800 --> 1:10:54.559 a healthy way to be dealing with with emotions, whether 1:10:54.560 --> 1:10:59.000 they're happy or sad emotions or stress work emotions. Like 1:10:59.320 --> 1:11:03.040 I knew deep down, I can't keep doing that, Like 1:11:03.120 --> 1:11:06.680 I can't. I've got to have a healthier option for 1:11:06.760 --> 1:11:09.640 my life. But it was hard because I'm traveling all 1:11:09.680 --> 1:11:12.320 around the world, having this amazing life, making like a 1:11:12.360 --> 1:11:15.840 ton of money and having a great career, like I'm 1:11:15.880 --> 1:11:18.559 so proud of everything that I've achieved, and you know, 1:11:18.640 --> 1:11:20.840 just wanting to be in one Hollywood movie. Now I 1:11:20.840 --> 1:11:23.160 think I've done like twenty and as like now now 1:11:23.200 --> 1:11:25.720 it's awesome. But then I just knew, okay, no, I'm 1:11:25.760 --> 1:11:29.280 turning forty. I know that I can be healthier. Even 1:11:29.280 --> 1:11:32.439 though I loved myself being bigger and it never stopped 1:11:32.479 --> 1:11:35.519 me from doing anything really And then I was like, Okay, 1:11:36.120 --> 1:11:39.280 I'm gonna make the big change and lose excess weight 1:11:39.320 --> 1:11:42.880 that my body doesn't need to be carrying around. And yeah, 1:11:43.080 --> 1:11:46.160 it was I had quite a lot of yeah pushback 1:11:46.240 --> 1:11:48.280 from that because people are like, but why why would 1:11:48.280 --> 1:11:50.200 you want to change, Like You're awesome how you are, 1:11:50.280 --> 1:11:53.720 and I was like, yeah, I know that, but I 1:11:53.800 --> 1:11:56.479 also know I'm engaging in some things that aren't healthy 1:11:57.000 --> 1:11:59.280 and I've got to, you know, work on that. 1:12:00.040 --> 1:12:02.719 When you say you received pushback, who specifically was that from. 1:12:02.800 --> 1:12:05.240 Was it from like your audience, your fans, was it 1:12:05.280 --> 1:12:08.519 from the people who represent you, people who are casting you. 1:12:08.800 --> 1:12:12.960 It was people that represented me who are amazing at 1:12:12.960 --> 1:12:16.240 what they do, like really amazing, but they weren't living 1:12:16.280 --> 1:12:20.160 my life. But also from some people on social media 1:12:20.200 --> 1:12:22.479 would be like, well, are you gonna be funny now? 1:12:23.240 --> 1:12:27.200 And I'm like, well, I think if physicality is one 1:12:27.479 --> 1:12:29.880 tool in your toolkit as a comedian, you can use, 1:12:30.320 --> 1:12:33.160 but there's many many other tools that I that I 1:12:33.200 --> 1:12:36.280 have and that you guys will see in upcoming movies, 1:12:36.320 --> 1:12:40.000 and so it's just about diversifying that. But it was, yeah, 1:12:40.000 --> 1:12:43.439 it's interesting. But then on the whole, pretty much everyone's 1:12:43.439 --> 1:12:46.360 been so supportive. And then I made my journey very 1:12:46.360 --> 1:12:49.840 public to make it accountable. But everyone's been so nice 1:12:49.840 --> 1:12:52.519 about it, and everyone gives you so many compliments and whatever. 1:12:53.600 --> 1:12:56.240 They're like, everyone's like, wow, you look great, And then 1:12:56.280 --> 1:12:58.240 I was like, oh, did I not look so gape 1:12:58.439 --> 1:13:00.240 before the guys. 1:13:00.320 --> 1:13:02.880 How has this year of health changed the roles that 1:13:02.920 --> 1:13:06.280 you're now getting or changed you not just physically in 1:13:06.280 --> 1:13:10.000 how you feel it everything else, but changed your ability 1:13:10.080 --> 1:13:12.000 in your work? Like, how has that changed? 1:13:12.080 --> 1:13:15.160 Weirly, it's now opened up dramatic roles which I wasn't 1:13:15.640 --> 1:13:19.240 really getting considered for before, which is awesome because now 1:13:19.240 --> 1:13:22.280 I can use that acting muscle that I haven't used 1:13:22.280 --> 1:13:24.360 as much of. And so I filmed this movie called 1:13:24.400 --> 1:13:27.599 The arm And and the Seahorse. Obviousitly this amazing French 1:13:27.640 --> 1:13:31.439 actor Charlotte Gainsburg, and that's really cool to now be 1:13:31.600 --> 1:13:35.080 seen in that light. But people in Hollywood they kind 1:13:35.080 --> 1:13:37.759 of have to see it first and then they change 1:13:37.800 --> 1:13:42.120 their minds. You can't convince people otherwise. They almost got 1:13:42.200 --> 1:13:45.400 to see or change first and then they go, oh, yes, okay. 1:13:46.479 --> 1:13:47.720 I mean, I feel like that's going to be huge 1:13:47.720 --> 1:13:49.439 for the audience because I'm just trying to think. 1:13:49.479 --> 1:13:49.639 Now. 1:13:49.720 --> 1:13:51.320 I know you have done things in the past, but 1:13:51.680 --> 1:13:54.599 everything that I can think of of you is comedy. 1:13:54.760 --> 1:13:56.559 I don't want to make you fel uncomfortable, but I 1:13:56.560 --> 1:13:58.080 was supposed to come to that premiere with you, so 1:13:58.120 --> 1:14:00.200 I haven't seen the movie. 1:13:59.120 --> 1:14:01.200 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I was. 1:14:01.160 --> 1:14:03.040 Supposed to kind of sell your drama film, but I 1:14:03.080 --> 1:14:04.800 can't wait to see it because I can't wait to 1:14:04.800 --> 1:14:06.880 see And now that I know you personally, obviously, I 1:14:06.920 --> 1:14:09.240 know you have that side to you, but you I'm 1:14:09.240 --> 1:14:10.200 just quite. 1:14:10.000 --> 1:14:11.160 Serious in real life. Though. 1:14:11.600 --> 1:14:14.400 Everyone asks me what's Rebel really like, and I'm like, actually, 1:14:14.479 --> 1:14:17.559 nothing like who you represent on. 1:14:17.600 --> 1:14:20.200 Film, which I take as a compliment to my acting 1:14:20.240 --> 1:14:22.760 that they think I am exactly like fat Amy or 1:14:22.800 --> 1:14:25.840 exactly like they do think that, And then I go, well, 1:14:25.880 --> 1:14:28.639 that's just a compliment that I've made myself seem very believable, 1:14:28.640 --> 1:14:31.080 because I think I am much more serious and responsible 1:14:31.120 --> 1:14:32.679 in real life than on screen. 1:14:33.439 --> 1:14:35.320 But I think it's so interesting as well that like 1:14:36.280 --> 1:14:38.880 maybe in order, and I don't want to say that 1:14:38.920 --> 1:14:41.920 it had to be the way, but like breaking that stereotype, 1:14:41.920 --> 1:14:43.960 breaking that mold of being like, you know, the person 1:14:43.960 --> 1:14:46.519 who always is going to be the funny person in 1:14:46.560 --> 1:14:49.599 the comedy skit. To be able to now have these 1:14:49.680 --> 1:14:52.360 dramatic roles and to be able to shift and kind 1:14:52.439 --> 1:14:55.760 of retransform yourself in your career, it all came down 1:14:55.760 --> 1:14:57.760 to this year of health or that's played a huge 1:14:57.800 --> 1:15:00.320 part in it and in people's perceptions. I think that 1:15:00.360 --> 1:15:03.360 there is still in Hollywood or in acting that there 1:15:03.439 --> 1:15:05.759 is still like very much a type or a cast 1:15:05.840 --> 1:15:08.040 at how they go, Okay, well if you are the 1:15:08.040 --> 1:15:09.200 biggest sized girl. 1:15:09.000 --> 1:15:09.960 You're going to be in comedy. 1:15:10.000 --> 1:15:11.360 You're not going to be in a drama, or you're 1:15:11.400 --> 1:15:12.920 not going to be in seat of something that's a 1:15:12.960 --> 1:15:14.000 more serious role. 1:15:14.439 --> 1:15:17.200 Yeah, I mean there definitely was when I came to Hollywood. 1:15:17.240 --> 1:15:20.520 But I think the good thing about diversity and inclusion 1:15:21.280 --> 1:15:24.800 is that not only with ethnicities is it changing. Like 1:15:24.840 --> 1:15:27.479 I mean, it's amazing if you're out there and you're 1:15:27.600 --> 1:15:31.600 like a diverse actor, like not Caucasian, it's an amazing 1:15:31.760 --> 1:15:34.400 time for you right now, Like there's so many roles 1:15:34.439 --> 1:15:36.760 going and that was not the case, Like it just 1:15:36.880 --> 1:15:39.679 wasn't the case ten years ago. But I also think 1:15:39.840 --> 1:15:42.400 in the inclusion with it, whether it be like on 1:15:42.439 --> 1:15:46.479 the sexuality spectrum or with body types, it's becoming part 1:15:46.520 --> 1:15:51.400 of being inclusive and stuff. So it definitely wasn't. It 1:15:51.520 --> 1:15:53.640 really wasn't. When I first came to Hollywood, there was 1:15:53.720 --> 1:15:57.680 hardly any plus size actresses. And I still think there 1:15:57.720 --> 1:16:00.000 was some statistic. This is like a few years ago, 1:16:00.120 --> 1:16:03.439 but it was something like leading Ladies, it's less than 1:16:03.479 --> 1:16:06.640 one percent or something of plus size actresses. When you 1:16:06.680 --> 1:16:10.880 look at all Hollywood films, there is some movement in 1:16:10.880 --> 1:16:14.280 including different body types in the inclusivity movement. 1:16:14.560 --> 1:16:16.240 Well, I think as well as why there's so much 1:16:16.360 --> 1:16:19.240 there's so much media attention when somebody We've seen it 1:16:19.280 --> 1:16:21.679 with Adele, we saw it with you. When somebody who 1:16:21.840 --> 1:16:24.080 is plus size has a dramatic weight loss and the 1:16:24.080 --> 1:16:26.640 metea is so like, tell me everything, how did you 1:16:26.680 --> 1:16:30.200 do it? And I think it's because there is this underrepresentation. 1:16:30.439 --> 1:16:32.720 So like when one person steps out of that role, 1:16:32.760 --> 1:16:36.080 they're like, whoa, well, what are you doing that? You're 1:16:36.080 --> 1:16:37.600 not supposed to be doing that. You're not supposed to 1:16:37.640 --> 1:16:38.400 be that person. 1:16:38.520 --> 1:16:41.040 Yeah, yeah, because they see you as one way and 1:16:41.080 --> 1:16:42.720 they like you as one way, and they want you 1:16:42.800 --> 1:16:43.240 to be that. 1:16:43.520 --> 1:16:44.559 People don't like change. 1:16:44.760 --> 1:16:47.920 Yeah, And I think in your family, say, you know, 1:16:48.120 --> 1:16:51.200 say there's two sisters and they're both overweight, and one 1:16:51.680 --> 1:16:54.120 loses weight and the other one doesn't, and there could 1:16:54.160 --> 1:16:57.160 be some resentment from the other sister going well, why 1:16:57.200 --> 1:17:00.479 did you change? And that makes them not feel good 1:17:00.479 --> 1:17:04.360 about themselves whatever reason, and it's so relatable. I think that, yeah, 1:17:04.439 --> 1:17:06.559 there's some people out there that don't like the change, 1:17:06.560 --> 1:17:10.320 but I'm kind of like, just did it for myself 1:17:10.360 --> 1:17:12.679 and knew I could be a healthier version of myself 1:17:12.680 --> 1:17:14.800 and that was my only goal. Then I was so 1:17:14.880 --> 1:17:16.840 proud of myself that I could actually do it. 1:17:17.040 --> 1:17:19.160 Well, you're look incredible, You've done an amazing job. So 1:17:19.240 --> 1:17:19.839 well done. 1:17:19.920 --> 1:17:22.320 I think a big thing is the small changes you 1:17:22.320 --> 1:17:24.120 can make, because I know other people probably ask you, 1:17:24.120 --> 1:17:25.760 they're write you this, like how did you do it? Though? 1:17:25.800 --> 1:17:26.360 What did you do? 1:17:26.439 --> 1:17:28.000 And I just think of even the times that we 1:17:28.040 --> 1:17:28.479 catch up. 1:17:28.560 --> 1:17:29.280 You catch up for a. 1:17:29.240 --> 1:17:31.479 Walk or catch up to tennis, or you don't have 1:17:31.520 --> 1:17:32.800 to be going to a drink. We don't have to 1:17:32.840 --> 1:17:34.400 be going to and you can eat buffet, Like, there 1:17:34.439 --> 1:17:35.880 are so many different ways you can catch up with 1:17:35.880 --> 1:17:38.479 people and incorporate these things into your life without actually 1:17:38.479 --> 1:17:40.520 feeling like I've got to pull myself. 1:17:40.240 --> 1:17:42.080 Out about it at five am to go and slog 1:17:42.120 --> 1:17:42.760 it out the gym. 1:17:42.840 --> 1:17:46.080 You don't actually have to. Like walking is like one 1:17:46.080 --> 1:17:48.639 of the best things, just getting out there and going 1:17:48.640 --> 1:17:51.280 for a walk, which pretty much most people can do, 1:17:51.800 --> 1:17:54.000 and it just like is it's the best thing. I 1:17:54.040 --> 1:17:56.400 went to the Fancy Is Health retreat in Europe to 1:17:56.479 --> 1:18:00.439 learn that just walking, just walking for an hour day 1:18:01.280 --> 1:18:03.720 is really good. You don't really need to slog it out. 1:18:03.760 --> 1:18:05.920 I mean I did slog it out to lose weight 1:18:06.040 --> 1:18:08.680 more quickly, but like, yeah, you don't actually have to 1:18:08.680 --> 1:18:10.880 do that, and that's not part of my regular routine now. 1:18:11.240 --> 1:18:14.120 So moving back to Australian Territory, we did mention before 1:18:14.240 --> 1:18:15.720 you do do a lot of charity work, and you 1:18:15.760 --> 1:18:18.120 have done a lot of working in Africa, but you 1:18:18.240 --> 1:18:21.280 did just come back to Australia and drop very very 1:18:21.360 --> 1:18:22.160 large amount of money. 1:18:22.200 --> 1:18:24.760 You just donated one million. 1:18:24.479 --> 1:18:26.439 Dollars to the Australian. 1:18:25.960 --> 1:18:27.840 Theater for Young People, which is where you train. 1:18:28.000 --> 1:18:30.200 I know, because they were so supportive of me as 1:18:30.200 --> 1:18:33.599 a young actor. And anyone who's like through the pandemic 1:18:33.680 --> 1:18:37.200 knows like live theater and you know, theater. The industry 1:18:37.240 --> 1:18:40.360 has suffered greatly and it's such a shame because it's 1:18:40.479 --> 1:18:43.080 like for me, it's like the best. I love seeing 1:18:43.120 --> 1:18:45.519 shows and musicals, it's one of my favorite things to do. 1:18:45.960 --> 1:18:48.639 And the Austraian theater for young people had a space 1:18:48.760 --> 1:18:51.320 that the government allocated them down at the Wharf in Sydney, 1:18:51.360 --> 1:18:53.680 but they didn't have the money to build the new 1:18:53.760 --> 1:18:57.280 theater and all the fit out, and so I was like, well, okay, 1:18:57.320 --> 1:19:00.960 I'll donate because I just feel very strong in giving 1:19:01.000 --> 1:19:03.160 back and I was given a lot from them, and 1:19:03.200 --> 1:19:05.360 so I was like, okay, I'm going to give back. 1:19:05.479 --> 1:19:06.720 You gave back tennis the way. 1:19:06.840 --> 1:19:10.720 Oh yeah. But even the scholarship that Nicole Kimmen had 1:19:10.760 --> 1:19:14.080 given me through ato IP, like, I repaid that as 1:19:14.080 --> 1:19:16.040 soon as I could, as soon as it was only 1:19:16.120 --> 1:19:17.960 at the time it was only twelve thousand dollars, but 1:19:18.000 --> 1:19:20.280 that was a lot of money at the time, and 1:19:20.360 --> 1:19:22.600 I repaid that as well because I was like, I 1:19:22.760 --> 1:19:25.479 just believe in in doing that. And then it gives 1:19:25.600 --> 1:19:28.880 this awesome new theater a home for like thousands of 1:19:28.920 --> 1:19:31.360 kids are going to perform there and get their start there, 1:19:31.840 --> 1:19:34.600 and that makes me feel like really really good. And 1:19:34.640 --> 1:19:36.880 then the first show that's going to open the theater 1:19:37.000 --> 1:19:40.080 in February is called The deb and it's a musical 1:19:40.720 --> 1:19:45.160 that I've been producing with a very talented team and 1:19:45.240 --> 1:19:48.080 it's about a debutante ball in a small country town. 1:19:48.479 --> 1:19:51.280 It'll be the first production in the new Rebel Theater 1:19:51.520 --> 1:19:52.240 down at the wharf. 1:19:52.320 --> 1:19:53.240 When does it come out? 1:19:53.439 --> 1:19:56.960 Oh, it might start previewing mid February, but late February. 1:19:57.000 --> 1:19:57.600 Well, go, I say it. 1:19:57.760 --> 1:19:59.519 Do you know you just spoke about kids and you're 1:19:59.520 --> 1:20:01.519 talking about the theater. But something else that you've done, 1:20:01.520 --> 1:20:04.240 because you're such an overachiever, is that you have published 1:20:04.280 --> 1:20:06.800 a book called Bella the Brave And. 1:20:07.040 --> 1:20:08.760 I can see it. 1:20:09.840 --> 1:20:12.120 Can you tell us a little bit about my mantalga? 1:20:12.920 --> 1:20:15.360 I mean, it's right there, like next to the awards, 1:20:15.360 --> 1:20:17.920 next to the trophies. But why Bella the Brave? What 1:20:18.080 --> 1:20:20.400 was the initiative behind it? Why did you want to 1:20:20.439 --> 1:20:22.400 write a book that was for young girls? 1:20:22.640 --> 1:20:24.920 I think I literally am a late bloomer in a 1:20:24.920 --> 1:20:29.280 lot of things, and so I sometimes wish I'd had 1:20:29.400 --> 1:20:33.960 certain messages earlier. And the first book about Bella the 1:20:33.960 --> 1:20:36.599 Brave is about overcoming shyness, which was my first kind 1:20:36.640 --> 1:20:39.959 of battle in life, and I'm glad I did overcome 1:20:39.960 --> 1:20:43.120 it and started to express my personality to people, because 1:20:43.120 --> 1:20:45.559 I wasn't naturally like that as a child, and so 1:20:45.760 --> 1:20:48.719 I think just with bell I thought well, in my movies, 1:20:48.760 --> 1:20:51.320 I'm getting across a lot of girl power messages and 1:20:51.360 --> 1:20:55.040 things about loving yourself and some really nice messages in 1:20:55.040 --> 1:20:58.400 my films, but they're more for older teens and above, 1:20:58.680 --> 1:21:00.840 And so I thought, oh, for the younger kids, like, 1:21:00.880 --> 1:21:03.759 it could be really cool to do these picture books 1:21:03.800 --> 1:21:08.040 and have these awesome, nice positive messages in and to 1:21:08.080 --> 1:21:11.600 tell little stories. Bella's a kind of nod to It 1:21:11.680 --> 1:21:14.320 was about perfect, yeah, because I was like, I didn't 1:21:14.360 --> 1:21:17.639 want to call a rebel like brain lead character. 1:21:19.160 --> 1:21:21.200 Like I write my own movies, I put myself in. 1:21:21.240 --> 1:21:23.200 I write my own books, but. 1:21:23.120 --> 1:21:26.559 It's obviously me the character Bella, but I didn't want 1:21:26.560 --> 1:21:27.720 to call her my own name. 1:21:28.960 --> 1:21:32.120 You just mentioned shyness, which is like something that you've overcome. 1:21:32.479 --> 1:21:34.639 I question, and this is from producer Keisha. She threw 1:21:34.680 --> 1:21:36.040 this one in and I think it's a great one. 1:21:36.760 --> 1:21:41.240 What is something about yourself now that you dislike? A 1:21:41.320 --> 1:21:42.479 characteristic that you're like. 1:21:42.479 --> 1:21:45.000 You know what, if I could work on one thing, 1:21:45.160 --> 1:21:46.000 this would be the thing. 1:21:46.120 --> 1:21:51.040 I'm so independent, Like, I'm so so independent that I 1:21:51.080 --> 1:21:55.120 think with relationships it's hard to be one. It's hard. 1:21:59.240 --> 1:22:02.320 That's the one that I'm like, why am I like 1:22:02.439 --> 1:22:05.720 so abnormal in that area or whatever, and that I'm 1:22:05.840 --> 1:22:08.920 trying to see if I can get past that because 1:22:08.920 --> 1:22:10.840 I'm just so I'm so used to being single and 1:22:10.960 --> 1:22:14.280 like being by myself that like, I get used to 1:22:14.320 --> 1:22:17.519 that and I've maybe got certain ways that I should VERA. 1:22:17.600 --> 1:22:20.519 Was like, do you think that I'll ever just like 1:22:20.840 --> 1:22:22.799 actually like having someone in my space? 1:22:23.640 --> 1:22:25.600 Like maybe one day or potentially not. 1:22:25.640 --> 1:22:27.800 There's plenty of people who are in healthy relationships who 1:22:27.840 --> 1:22:30.160 actually hate living with their partner totally. 1:22:30.160 --> 1:22:33.519 People have separate bedrooms horribly and like, and I just 1:22:33.680 --> 1:22:35.479 I just don't know whether maybe I haven't met the 1:22:35.520 --> 1:22:39.400 right person yet or I'm just like, I don't know, you. 1:22:39.479 --> 1:22:41.760 Just need a bigger house, different levels. I don't know, 1:22:41.920 --> 1:22:45.400 because it's pretty big. I mean, that's a really nice 1:22:45.400 --> 1:22:46.240 little segue. 1:22:46.360 --> 1:22:49.559 We are, you know, we are predominantly a relationship podcast. 1:22:49.600 --> 1:22:52.280 We love to talk about love and dating and independence 1:22:52.320 --> 1:22:53.160 and breakup and. 1:22:53.320 --> 1:22:54.840 I do love dating podcasts. 1:22:55.040 --> 1:22:58.200 Yeah, well, maybe you should listen to one one day now. 1:22:58.280 --> 1:23:01.599 I have listened to like when I have I. 1:23:01.520 --> 1:23:04.600 Have no but let's talk about and we're not going 1:23:04.640 --> 1:23:06.920 to get into the specifics, but love and dating and 1:23:06.920 --> 1:23:07.760 breakups for you? 1:23:07.880 --> 1:23:10.800 How is that? I mean, how has that evolved for you. 1:23:10.600 --> 1:23:13.880 From being your dorky teen into dating in the public 1:23:13.920 --> 1:23:17.040 eye and everyone looking at every single thing you do and. 1:23:16.960 --> 1:23:20.720 I just want to quickly she's well, yeah, like quickly. 1:23:20.479 --> 1:23:23.599 To throw in there like your ex Jacob Rip. Sorry 1:23:23.600 --> 1:23:29.080 that that ended, but he was so hot. Well done. Yes, yeah, 1:23:29.080 --> 1:23:29.960 he's like very. 1:23:29.840 --> 1:23:31.519 I don't know if anyone wants someone to say that 1:23:31.560 --> 1:23:33.000 about the X. Oh, don't we talk about. 1:23:32.800 --> 1:23:37.120 How he's just a hearty, ease, pure physical perfection. I 1:23:37.160 --> 1:23:39.160 will attest to that in every way. 1:23:39.280 --> 1:23:41.639 But what's it like having a relationship in the public 1:23:41.640 --> 1:23:45.240 eye and having to date and having everyone's everyone's interest. 1:23:45.560 --> 1:23:48.519 Well, okay, first of all, yeah, I'm I am a 1:23:48.600 --> 1:23:50.679 late bloomer, I guess because in my twenties I never 1:23:50.720 --> 1:23:54.200 dated anybody, not anybody, which is sad in a way. 1:23:54.320 --> 1:23:58.120 But I needed to be very focused and disciplined, almost 1:23:58.160 --> 1:24:02.320 like an Olympic athlete level of focus to make it 1:24:02.360 --> 1:24:05.320 in the entertainment industry. Like it was that hard. Now 1:24:05.360 --> 1:24:07.519 I can take my foot off the gas a little bit, 1:24:08.000 --> 1:24:11.000 but it's I don't know, it's amazing, Like some things 1:24:11.040 --> 1:24:13.559 come out about people you're dating, and then some with 1:24:13.600 --> 1:24:16.920 some other people, it never comes out. It just depends. 1:24:17.200 --> 1:24:19.680 And sometimes the press or right thing you know, that 1:24:19.760 --> 1:24:22.960 are totally untrue, and sometimes they're on the money with it. 1:24:23.400 --> 1:24:25.479 So it just it's a bit we It's like an 1:24:25.479 --> 1:24:28.760 extra complication being in the public eye. I guess I've 1:24:28.800 --> 1:24:32.360 had like a guy not want to date me because 1:24:32.400 --> 1:24:34.600 he came to a movie premiere and like had a 1:24:34.640 --> 1:24:35.880 panic attack with the. 1:24:35.880 --> 1:24:37.559 Attention and not ideal. 1:24:37.800 --> 1:24:39.760 Yeah, it didn't want to date me because I was 1:24:39.920 --> 1:24:43.080 in the public eye, and that was hard to deal with. 1:24:43.560 --> 1:24:47.519 And then I've had other guys who are very much 1:24:47.640 --> 1:24:50.320 liking the attention, and then it can swing the other 1:24:50.360 --> 1:24:52.639 opposite way where they like it a bit too much 1:24:52.720 --> 1:24:55.880 and you're like, oh, that's that can be a red 1:24:55.920 --> 1:24:56.960 flag as well. 1:24:57.080 --> 1:25:00.160 So, well, how do you differentiate, because I imagine this 1:25:00.200 --> 1:25:01.760 is something that anyone deals with in the public eye. 1:25:01.760 --> 1:25:04.559 How do you know that someone that it's genuine and 1:25:04.560 --> 1:25:07.519 they're not using you to leverage themselves or get publicity 1:25:07.560 --> 1:25:08.200 for themselves. 1:25:08.200 --> 1:25:10.599 That's hard. Well, I think I'm a pretty good judge 1:25:10.600 --> 1:25:12.880 of character, and I you know, and I haven't had 1:25:12.920 --> 1:25:17.439 any horror stories or anything, but not in the romantic sense. 1:25:17.520 --> 1:25:20.599 But I have had some people in Hollywood that still 1:25:20.640 --> 1:25:24.080 swindled me when and I'm such a smart, you know person, 1:25:24.280 --> 1:25:27.720 but like, I've still had a couple of like friendships. 1:25:27.760 --> 1:25:30.360 I guess where you've been swindled. Luckily, I haven't really 1:25:30.439 --> 1:25:33.200 had it in the romantic area. At the end of 1:25:33.200 --> 1:25:35.800 the day, like your job and whatever is part of you, 1:25:35.880 --> 1:25:37.400 so you want them to like it. 1:25:37.800 --> 1:25:40.479 But then I don't know, do you think you have 1:25:40.520 --> 1:25:42.240 to date somebody in the public eye that does what 1:25:42.280 --> 1:25:43.920 you do or do you have a preference. Could you 1:25:44.000 --> 1:25:45.559 just date Joe boy from down the street. 1:25:45.760 --> 1:25:48.840 Well, I've never dated like an actor because I just 1:25:48.920 --> 1:25:51.320 I don't think two actors or whatever would be good 1:25:51.360 --> 1:25:57.120 together real Hollywood relationship. 1:25:55.439 --> 1:25:57.240 Six would suggest otherwise. 1:25:57.600 --> 1:26:01.960 Yeah, yeah, And I've dated from the very very wealthy 1:26:02.200 --> 1:26:05.040 to like really has no money and is in a 1:26:05.080 --> 1:26:08.840 sharehouse with two other people. I've dated the spectrum. It's 1:26:08.880 --> 1:26:11.760 quite interesting to date different people and just find out, 1:26:11.800 --> 1:26:14.320 you know, what's what's the best. But I feel like 1:26:14.600 --> 1:26:17.479 the person you're dating, they've got to be very secure 1:26:17.560 --> 1:26:20.640 in themselves. And I'm not the most famous, you know, 1:26:20.760 --> 1:26:24.439 but like I have a successful movie career and stuff. 1:26:24.560 --> 1:26:28.080 So there's sometimes you know, you get attention or things 1:26:28.080 --> 1:26:30.799 from that and the other person's got to be very secure. 1:26:31.320 --> 1:26:34.519 What's your advice for somebody now that might be going 1:26:34.520 --> 1:26:36.160 through a breakup, because I know you obviously went through 1:26:36.160 --> 1:26:39.040 a breakup with Jacob, you've been before, But what's your 1:26:39.040 --> 1:26:41.760 advice for someone We have people writing every single day 1:26:41.960 --> 1:26:45.800 that are just really struggling with moving on or accepting 1:26:46.200 --> 1:26:47.080 a life change. 1:26:47.960 --> 1:26:50.920 Advice it is. And I also I'm very, very jealous 1:26:50.960 --> 1:26:51.519 of your friendship. 1:26:51.560 --> 1:26:53.519 I don't know if you know this, Laura, but Rebel 1:26:53.640 --> 1:26:56.160 is really good friends with Matthew Hussy, which is somebody 1:26:56.240 --> 1:26:58.599 that we hear at Life Uncut Love and we go. 1:26:58.479 --> 1:27:00.400 Here for a lot of advises. I need to get 1:27:00.439 --> 1:27:02.719 him on the podcast, if you can put him the word. 1:27:03.200 --> 1:27:05.360 I've had to call him a couple of times to 1:27:05.400 --> 1:27:09.800 get relationship and love advice because he's so good, Like, 1:27:09.840 --> 1:27:12.919 he's just so good. And he came to my birthday 1:27:12.920 --> 1:27:15.840 party this year on Rebel Island and he's like and 1:27:15.880 --> 1:27:18.120 of course anytime I can talk to him about stuff, 1:27:18.120 --> 1:27:20.680 I'm like, Matthew, what do you reckon about this? I'm 1:27:20.720 --> 1:27:23.000 in this situation like what should I do? He's just 1:27:23.040 --> 1:27:25.479 a legend, like and he has a podcast as well 1:27:25.840 --> 1:27:28.720 that you can learn stuff from. But the question was 1:27:28.760 --> 1:27:29.640 about breakups. 1:27:29.760 --> 1:27:31.680 Yeah, like just what's your best advice to somebody that's 1:27:31.720 --> 1:27:33.240 going through one and they just feel a bit of 1:27:33.240 --> 1:27:36.040 despair and like the world is over, they've never dated again, 1:27:36.120 --> 1:27:38.080 they can't get themselves out of bed. You know that, 1:27:38.240 --> 1:27:41.599 I am, weirdly normally the person that dumps somebody. 1:27:41.640 --> 1:27:42.559 I hate that word. 1:27:42.800 --> 1:27:43.479 You're the dumper. 1:27:43.800 --> 1:27:47.240 I'm yeah, I'm not usually the person that gets dumped. 1:27:47.760 --> 1:27:49.920 Why do you think that is? Why are you the dumpers? 1:27:49.920 --> 1:27:52.599 Because she's got she can't beat a relationships? You hate people. 1:27:53.479 --> 1:27:57.320 I would love to be dumb, Yeah, I would, because 1:27:57.360 --> 1:27:59.599 then at least it's not me having to do it. Like, 1:27:59.720 --> 1:28:01.920 I don't know, but I'm normally the one that I'm 1:28:01.920 --> 1:28:05.679 like at a certain point, you're like this is good, 1:28:05.760 --> 1:28:08.280 but I, you know, I feel like maybe this person's 1:28:08.320 --> 1:28:10.519 not the one. And then when you feel that, then 1:28:10.640 --> 1:28:14.080 maybe you have to move on. And it's awful, especially 1:28:14.080 --> 1:28:16.760 when you care about the person and respect them and 1:28:17.520 --> 1:28:19.800 you just think, but I don't think I can't see 1:28:19.800 --> 1:28:22.479 this being long term or I can't see myself getting 1:28:22.479 --> 1:28:25.400 engaged to them, so I've got to end it. And 1:28:25.439 --> 1:28:29.400 it's awful, Like it's awful, it's never good. But then also, 1:28:29.640 --> 1:28:33.120 once I have been dumped one time, there was only 1:28:33.160 --> 1:28:38.000 one time, and kind of refuse to believe it there 1:28:39.000 --> 1:28:41.759 and then I didn't give up for about two more years. 1:28:41.960 --> 1:28:44.200 And then what do you mean like you kept chasing him? 1:28:44.320 --> 1:28:48.800 Yeah? And then and wait, can we deep dive into 1:28:48.800 --> 1:28:49.360 this a little bit? 1:28:49.479 --> 1:28:52.559 How did this transpire? Like how do you persist for 1:28:52.560 --> 1:28:55.519 two years? Was he very adamant or was he giving 1:28:55.680 --> 1:28:59.840 a little actually spoken about this? And it's more like 1:29:00.240 --> 1:29:02.680 it's when you, like, in the opposite of what you 1:29:02.760 --> 1:29:04.680 just see, I think they'll come around. Yeah, when you 1:29:04.680 --> 1:29:07.760 have those feelings like but to me, you're right, So 1:29:07.800 --> 1:29:09.920 how can't I be right to you that you know 1:29:10.000 --> 1:29:11.840 that feeling of like yeah or everything to me? 1:29:11.960 --> 1:29:13.519 But so I don't know, I say, well, why am 1:29:13.520 --> 1:29:16.000 I feeling all these feelings if it's not real? 1:29:16.800 --> 1:29:17.440 Yeah? 1:29:17.479 --> 1:29:20.479 And it was. It was really hard. So okay, So basically, though, 1:29:20.920 --> 1:29:23.080 long story shut, I have empathy for people who have 1:29:23.160 --> 1:29:25.840 to dump people. And maybe you're in a relationship and 1:29:25.920 --> 1:29:27.360 now you're in the new year and you're like, I 1:29:27.360 --> 1:29:29.559 don't know about this relationship. I don't know whether it's 1:29:29.560 --> 1:29:31.840 serving me the best or I'm being the best my 1:29:31.920 --> 1:29:33.920 best self in this and I got to get out 1:29:33.920 --> 1:29:35.320 of it, you know, and you might have to dump 1:29:35.320 --> 1:29:38.599 the person or if you've been dumped and I know 1:29:38.680 --> 1:29:40.800 that feeling as well, and it's like it is very 1:29:40.840 --> 1:29:44.000 sad that you're like, oh my god. I think Hussey's 1:29:44.040 --> 1:29:47.280 advice is normally not sometimes not to take it personally. 1:29:47.640 --> 1:29:49.439 I think I did take it very personally when I 1:29:49.479 --> 1:29:51.360 was dumped when it really wasn't about me. It was 1:29:51.400 --> 1:29:54.000 about what the other person was going through. And you 1:29:54.040 --> 1:29:56.920 can take it very personally because obviously it's you being dumped, 1:29:57.240 --> 1:30:00.960 but you just sometimes it's not about you and the 1:30:01.000 --> 1:30:05.240 person's doing your favor by they're letting you know for whatever, 1:30:05.360 --> 1:30:09.000 because if that person is investing in the relationship. MATTHIASI 1:30:09.080 --> 1:30:12.000 talks about like test and invest, it'll invest and then 1:30:12.080 --> 1:30:14.800 test to see whether the other person is investing back, 1:30:14.800 --> 1:30:18.720 and if they're not, then you're like, you shouldn't be 1:30:18.840 --> 1:30:20.519 in that relationship if it's not. 1:30:20.840 --> 1:30:23.840 It's so hugely undervalued just how hard it is and 1:30:23.880 --> 1:30:25.479 how hard it can be to be the one doing 1:30:25.479 --> 1:30:28.719 the breakup, like the one. We have so much sympathy 1:30:28.760 --> 1:30:30.800 and empathy for the person who's being broken up with, 1:30:30.880 --> 1:30:32.960 like we know that they need to be held up 1:30:32.960 --> 1:30:36.080 and supported, But when you're the person who has to do. 1:30:35.960 --> 1:30:37.120 That to another human. 1:30:37.000 --> 1:30:39.640 Hard, I hate so hard because I always, you know, 1:30:39.840 --> 1:30:41.880 got a bit of people pleasing in me, and so like, 1:30:42.000 --> 1:30:44.400 you don't want to you don't want to hurt somebody. 1:30:44.560 --> 1:30:46.400 So just coming back to what you said just before 1:30:46.600 --> 1:30:49.920 in regards to like, you know, being able to relatively early, 1:30:50.000 --> 1:30:51.840 not even really early, but being able to feel out 1:30:51.880 --> 1:30:54.720 that it's not the right relationship for you. What is 1:30:54.760 --> 1:30:57.240 it that you're looking for? Like what are your deal 1:30:57.280 --> 1:30:58.439 breakers and deal makers? 1:30:58.439 --> 1:30:59.680 Because we've got a big audience here. 1:31:00.080 --> 1:31:02.400 Yeah, guy, Yeah, am I be out there for me? 1:31:03.120 --> 1:31:07.400 Still technically single? So you just I don't know that 1:31:07.479 --> 1:31:11.080 connection when I don't know whether anyone's seen like Mulan 1:31:11.160 --> 1:31:13.680 Rouge the musical or and I was sitting there and 1:31:13.720 --> 1:31:17.000 they're singing about love and I'm like, oh, I want 1:31:17.000 --> 1:31:20.360 to feel that connection where artists and poets talk about 1:31:20.479 --> 1:31:23.120 that's like that, And I just don't know whether I've 1:31:23.160 --> 1:31:25.800 found that right person yet. So I don't know how 1:31:25.800 --> 1:31:29.639 to describe that. It's just that it's just that deepness 1:31:29.120 --> 1:31:30.479 in the connection. 1:31:30.880 --> 1:31:32.680 I think the biggest thing that I'm just getting from 1:31:32.680 --> 1:31:35.000 you now is you're really big on just trusting the 1:31:35.040 --> 1:31:37.280 universe and trusting you got feeling and getting on with it. 1:31:37.280 --> 1:31:39.160 And I think something that people really struggle with, and 1:31:39.200 --> 1:31:41.200 I know I did once upon a time and then 1:31:41.240 --> 1:31:43.280 I fell into this ten years of singleton where I 1:31:43.280 --> 1:31:46.479 became fiercely independent. But I think people are really worried 1:31:46.520 --> 1:31:51.120 about being on their own and they can't differentiate solitude 1:31:51.120 --> 1:31:53.799 and loneliness, and they're two very different things. Being alone 1:31:53.920 --> 1:31:57.280 doesn't necessarily mean being lonely, Yeah, because I love. 1:31:57.160 --> 1:31:59.720 Being by myself like I do. I do genuinely love 1:31:59.760 --> 1:32:01.720 having my own spaces where I get to think, I 1:32:01.760 --> 1:32:05.200 get to do my writing. But I also feel for 1:32:05.280 --> 1:32:08.040 anybody that does feel very lonely, because I also I 1:32:08.120 --> 1:32:11.639 do know that feeling and when I wasn't dating anybody 1:32:11.680 --> 1:32:15.439 for so many years and just working seven days a week, like, 1:32:15.520 --> 1:32:18.080 I know that feeling when you just come home after 1:32:18.120 --> 1:32:20.920 a day of work and you're like, oh my, like 1:32:20.960 --> 1:32:23.280 I don't have anybody to share it with, and I'm 1:32:23.320 --> 1:32:27.120 not getting smooches from anybody or whatever. Like, I know 1:32:27.280 --> 1:32:31.000 what that's like, and I know how sad and that 1:32:31.040 --> 1:32:34.160 feeling can be. And even though I'm somebody who so 1:32:34.400 --> 1:32:37.160 loves myself and is so happy and content being alone, 1:32:37.200 --> 1:32:40.120 but I also know the loneliness feeling that people can feel, 1:32:40.160 --> 1:32:42.240 and I don't know, I really empathize with them. And 1:32:42.960 --> 1:32:45.639 I guess the trick is just be the best version 1:32:45.640 --> 1:32:50.880 of yourself and go out there do activities like interact 1:32:51.000 --> 1:32:55.160 with people that you might you know, also enjoy that activity. 1:32:55.280 --> 1:32:57.840 Like I know I'm talking very generally, but like, be 1:32:58.000 --> 1:33:00.360 the best version of yourself and just create the best 1:33:00.360 --> 1:33:02.280 life and then the I think the right person will 1:33:02.320 --> 1:33:02.880 come along. 1:33:03.400 --> 1:33:05.519 Let's move into some Hollywood goss. We're going to ask 1:33:05.560 --> 1:33:09.280 you some questions, Okay, quick answers. Who's your best in Hollywood? 1:33:09.760 --> 1:33:12.120 Well, I'd say the Bellers, the girls from Pitch Perfect 1:33:12.280 --> 1:33:13.400 because we talk all the time. 1:33:13.640 --> 1:33:15.160 Who's your hall pass? 1:33:15.200 --> 1:33:15.800 Brad Pitt? 1:33:15.960 --> 1:33:20.320 Oh? Same, Yeah, it's a real staple, isn't it any age? 1:33:20.320 --> 1:33:23.320 It's just it used to be Channing Tatum, Brittany's It 1:33:23.400 --> 1:33:25.760 used to be Channing Tatum, it's now Brad Pitt why 1:33:25.760 --> 1:33:29.439 did it change? Okay, well, at the twenty twenty Oscars, 1:33:29.760 --> 1:33:32.479 Brad had just won his Oscar. I had to go backstage. 1:33:32.479 --> 1:33:34.240 I had to change into being a cat for my 1:33:34.320 --> 1:33:39.040 little bit. So I had a dressing room backstage, which 1:33:39.080 --> 1:33:42.320 is so rare, like there's only like me, James Corden, 1:33:42.400 --> 1:33:45.400 like Billie Eilish that had dressing rooms back there. And 1:33:45.439 --> 1:33:48.320 then Brad was so overwhelmed. He just won the Oscar. 1:33:48.600 --> 1:33:51.600 You know, it was awesome, but he was overwhelmed. He 1:33:51.680 --> 1:33:56.840 needed refuge. And where I was, I was like, it's like, hi, Brad, 1:33:56.880 --> 1:33:58.880 Oh yeah, I'm just getting changed into a cat. He's like, 1:33:59.360 --> 1:34:02.240 can I walk with you? And I was like, yeah, 1:34:02.320 --> 1:34:04.200 don't you have to do press or you have to 1:34:04.200 --> 1:34:06.400 go to the press room because he's holding his oscar. 1:34:06.400 --> 1:34:09.200 He's literally just come off stage. He goes yeah, but 1:34:09.320 --> 1:34:11.960 I just like to, you know, walk with you. And 1:34:12.080 --> 1:34:15.840 then he walked me to my dressing room. We go 1:34:15.880 --> 1:34:18.960 down there's very risk corridors. We're just chit chatting. Meanwhile, 1:34:19.000 --> 1:34:22.960 Timothy Charlemagne comes up and he's like, Rebel, thanks for 1:34:23.040 --> 1:34:25.719 letting me have a shower at your house. And then 1:34:25.880 --> 1:34:29.280 I was like, oh, because I remember one time I 1:34:29.439 --> 1:34:31.320 was out and he came and had a shower at 1:34:31.320 --> 1:34:33.920 my house when I wasn't there. My sister let him 1:34:33.920 --> 1:34:36.200 in and then Brad Pitt looks at me and he's 1:34:36.280 --> 1:34:38.800 like yeah, and I'm like, oh yeah, Timothy Shallo may 1:34:38.920 --> 1:34:42.280 just how showers at my house. I'm game too if 1:34:42.280 --> 1:34:44.000 you want. And then and then Brad walked me to 1:34:44.000 --> 1:34:45.720 the dressing room and then I opened and my oh 1:34:45.760 --> 1:34:48.120 my style team's in there to turn me into a cat, 1:34:48.520 --> 1:34:51.240 and they're just like, what the hell, Like we you're 1:34:51.280 --> 1:34:54.840 just with Brad Pitt just escorted you back. I'm like, yeah, 1:34:55.200 --> 1:34:58.200 he's the nicest, nicest guy. And then later we spoke 1:34:58.200 --> 1:35:01.720 at the after party and that comedian Chelsea Handler was 1:35:01.800 --> 1:35:04.240 like because Brad came up and just kind of touched 1:35:04.240 --> 1:35:06.160 me on the back, and she's like, how long have 1:35:06.240 --> 1:35:11.320 you been fucking Brad Pitt? And I'm like, A wonder 1:35:11.520 --> 1:35:14.840 that room much? Yeah, I liked it wasn't true, obviously, 1:35:15.040 --> 1:35:17.280 but he's just I don't know, I just love him. 1:35:17.360 --> 1:35:20.719 I love fantastic up I've looked at him very up close. 1:35:20.840 --> 1:35:22.800 He looks great, He's beautiful. But I love hearing that 1:35:22.840 --> 1:35:25.599 he's as nice as he is good looking. Yeah, yeah, 1:35:25.680 --> 1:35:26.680 yeah he is. He is. 1:35:26.840 --> 1:35:29.040 Who would you want to play you in a movie? 1:35:29.760 --> 1:35:35.599 Oh me, yeah, because it depends what age. Tony Kollett 1:35:35.640 --> 1:35:37.240 is one of my favorite Strain actresses. 1:35:37.560 --> 1:35:40.000 What was it like making out with Liam Hemsworth? 1:35:40.120 --> 1:35:45.240 Okay, how many retakes did you do? Uh? That was 1:35:45.400 --> 1:35:47.599 the quickest scene were shot in the movie. I think 1:35:47.640 --> 1:35:50.840 we only did three takes when I had to ferociously 1:35:50.880 --> 1:35:53.160 make out with him in a whole way. He is 1:35:53.520 --> 1:35:57.360 the nicest guy, like so nice and so I mean, 1:35:57.520 --> 1:36:01.400 obviously they're all those brothers are very genetically gifted and 1:36:02.040 --> 1:36:05.320 are amazing. But it was like the quickest scene, Like 1:36:05.360 --> 1:36:08.519 I didn't really yeah, it literally was the five minutes 1:36:08.600 --> 1:36:10.479 or something. And it was because I knew Miley and 1:36:10.520 --> 1:36:12.600 stuff at the time. You know, no, no, no, it's just 1:36:12.680 --> 1:36:15.519 acting like whatever. But it was just so easy. 1:36:15.560 --> 1:36:18.120 We just did it, like give you a high five. 1:36:18.160 --> 1:36:21.559 Yeah, and then job was done. It's never romantic, guys, 1:36:21.560 --> 1:36:23.080 It's never romantic when you're at. 1:36:23.000 --> 1:36:25.040 Work, Like, it's not who would be the best person 1:36:25.040 --> 1:36:26.559 you made out? We're not the best person. Who's your 1:36:26.560 --> 1:36:29.000 favorite makeout? Because I also know on the set that 1:36:29.040 --> 1:36:29.599 I went to. 1:36:29.520 --> 1:36:32.360 See you on Inland. So I did kiss Justin Hartley 1:36:32.640 --> 1:36:33.800 or just set. 1:36:33.560 --> 1:36:34.719 The best kisser? 1:36:35.040 --> 1:36:37.599 Like, who, like, out of a rank here of one 1:36:37.640 --> 1:36:39.559 to ten, would you be like the guy's a very 1:36:39.560 --> 1:36:40.080 good kisser. 1:36:40.160 --> 1:36:42.320 That one not so much. Tell me Justin was good? 1:36:42.400 --> 1:36:45.559 Oh, Justin was fantastic. That kiss has been cut out 1:36:45.600 --> 1:36:48.120 of the movie Senior Year, the Big, My big cheerleading 1:36:48.120 --> 1:36:49.920 comedy that you guys. I think you'll see it in 1:36:49.920 --> 1:36:53.519 about March on Netflix. But we we actually cut the 1:36:53.640 --> 1:36:57.640 kiss because audience memory they didn't like the kiss. They 1:36:57.760 --> 1:37:00.680 liked me with the other guy more. So He's go like, 1:37:00.720 --> 1:37:03.320 who else have I? Oh God, I've kissed more people 1:37:03.360 --> 1:37:05.760 on screen than what I have in real life. That's 1:37:05.800 --> 1:37:07.920 a weird statistic, is that? 1:37:07.960 --> 1:37:08.360 Actually? 1:37:08.680 --> 1:37:15.040 Yeah? Wow, I haven't had many, you know, that's insane debuts. 1:37:15.280 --> 1:37:18.400 I've had much more on screen. And I remember I 1:37:18.520 --> 1:37:20.840 won Best Kiss with Adam Devine from Pitch Perfect. We 1:37:20.880 --> 1:37:23.040 won the MTV Movie Award for Best Kiss, which I 1:37:23.080 --> 1:37:25.240 was like pretty pumped about, Like that was awesome. 1:37:25.800 --> 1:37:27.320 So we'll go with Adam Devine for the wind. 1:37:27.320 --> 1:37:31.160 Do you think maybe maybe that was definitely my longest 1:37:31.200 --> 1:37:33.080 kiss with him? I think on screen. 1:37:33.960 --> 1:37:37.240 And just a rappit. Who would you hope to one 1:37:37.320 --> 1:37:39.320 day work with? Who would be someone you just dream 1:37:39.360 --> 1:37:41.439 of one day filming something? 1:37:41.800 --> 1:37:45.040 That's an awesome question.

I went for a walk a few 1:41:46.280 --> 1:41:48.880 days ago with Keisha. I was meeting her at the 1:41:48.960 --> 1:41:51.160 end of the Bond Day promenade.

How does a coffee shop 1:42:22.600 --> 1:42:24.599 in Bond diet how they are so unbusy that their 1:42:24.600 --> 1:42:25.280 milk goes off? 1:42:25.520 --> 1:42:28.040 That's a really great question.

I feel like comhenda. You're supposed to 1:43:02.240 --> 1:43:04.120 narrow down to one suite, that's the whole boy, We're 1:43:04.120 --> 1:43:05.080 supposed to have one. 1:43:05.160 --> 1:43:07.479 But it's the first big episode back of the year, 1:43:07.560 --> 1:43:09.320 so you're gonna make up for the last four weeks off. 1:43:09.320 --> 1:43:13.799 But how sweet?

So I just felt really good about delivering 1:43:22.080 --> 1:43:25.080 that to the people.
