-We all got these crazy stories about what our families do.
-Yeah.
-I was very mortified to hear one of your family traditions
that has something to do with a baby head.
-Ooh, yes.
Again, one of the more -- things I'm more proud of.
[ Laughter ]
The first house that we lived in,
there was a bunch of ivy in the front.
And when we tore out the ivy, I mean,
if ivy is there for 60 years,
you're gonna find some weird stuff.
And we found old little jars and a little car.
And then we found this doll's head,
a plastic doll's head covered in dirt.
It had just one eye. There's rat gnaw marks on it.
So obviously we washed it out
and made it a beloved part of our family.
[ Laughter ]
We call it creepy baby head, and we just hide it around places.
[ Laughter ]
Like, you'll find it in your --
like, in between your pillow and your pillowcase.
Or, like, in your underwear drawer.
Or like, you know, you just --
Whoever has it then has to hide it in someone else's stuff.
And the kids, if they play their cards right, one of them
is getting it, like, when they go off to college,
but they have to earn that trust.
[ Laughter ] You know?
'Cause I am not going to, like, have somebody at some frat party
be like, "Look what my mom sent me."
And then lose it. It's not okay.
[ Laughter ]
But it's very terrifying,
because you really can see the rat,
like, the marks on the teeth from the holes and the head.
-Has anyone ever gotten genuinely terrified
by finding it somewhere?
-Well, than they should leave my house.
[ Laughter ]
-Well, unfortunately for all of you,
we have a picture of this creepy baby head.
[ Cheers and applause ] -Oh.
She's so pretty.
So, my daughter wrote this note probably when she was eight.
And it's like, "Hello, I am creepy baby head.
I want to kill you."
But then, she didn't know that
you could sign notes not with love,
so then it says, "Love, creepy baby head."
[ Laughter ]
-I love the "your brains." -Your brains.
-"I will eat this." -Yeah.
[ Laughter ]
Creepy baby head. But she's kind of cute.
-That is the creepiest baby head.
-Uh-huh. -Literally.
-Yeah. -I'm gonna have to change this
to a more positive subject so I don't have nightmares right now.
Jo, I'm going to have to refer to my cards,
'cause you are doing so many things.
I just want to get this right, okay?
You've been so busy.
You have a Netflix special, "Coming in Hot."
It's streaming on Netflix, right?
[ Cheers and applause ]
You're currently -- I'm not even done.
You're currently on your sold-out world tour titled,
"Just Kidding." [ Cheers and applause ]
And on top of all of that, you're working on your book,
"Mixed Plate," which is your first book.
Is that correct? -Yeah, yeah.
-How was it writing your first book?
-One, I didn't know I had that many stories.
So, 'cause they told me how many chapters it had to be,
and I was like, "Oh, I can do that."
And then, I signed it, and I was like, "I can't do that."
[ Laughter ]
And then I was like, "I'll just fill the pages with pictures."
You know what I mean? [ Laughter ]
But I ended up having a lot of stories,
and it came out really, really well.
And I got really emotional writing it.
So, I was like, I was happy to do it.
-You both are part of so many amazing, incredible projects.
I mean, you alone, I just named three,
but there's another project you shot,
which is "Bill & Ted Face the Music."
-Yes. [ Cheers and applause ]
-Yeah, spoiler alert, y'all, spoiler alert.
Your character is actually married to
the one, the only, Keanu Reeves.
No big deal. [ Cheers and applause ]
-It's not a big deal. It's a really big deal.
[ Laughter ]
-What is it like shooting with someone and working with someone
that so many people in the world are obsessed with?
-It was crazy.
You know, and we're in New Orleans, shooting.
And we're just on set, and it's a million degrees.
I don't think anybody should live in New Orleans
in the summer.
It's like a punishment for humans.
You know, and then we're like actors in these little tents.
And you're trying to stay cool, and what we all do,
all of us actors and humans, you know, you get a down moment,
and you chat a bit.
And then you take out your phone,
and you scroll through some stuff.
And you do all your likes.
[ Laughter ]
You know?
And then you chat, and then you snack, and you do --
and he doesn't do that.
Like, he's just --
-Keanu doesn't do that. -He doesn't.
Like, I didn't see him scroll through his phone once.
He just is like present.
I'm like, "What is happening?"
[ Laughter ]
This is unnerving, and very nice, and kind and, you know,
I do believe all the stories
because he's just, like, there to be, man.
-That's deep.
-And I was like, wow, that's very inspiring.
And I'm gonna try that after I look at Instagram.
[ Laughter ]
-I actually deal with this a lot as well.
You're around so many people,
and I wish I was better at disconnecting.
I actually got you a little gift because --
-What? -It has really worked for me.
This has helped me disconnect, and we're all for helping people
on "A Little Late with Lilly Singh."
-Is it a slap? -No. No, no, no.
[ Laughter ] It'll help you Zen out.
It helped me a lot and just disconnect,
and I hope it helps you on set.
That's it. [ Applause ]
-What is it? -Hold on.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That's from both of us.
-Oh, yeah, yeah. [ Laughter ]
For sure.
-Are you kidding me?
[ Laughter ] -Oh, my God.
-It's like the greatest thing that's ever happened to me.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Yeah, yeah.
-It's like -- the rat -- you're my new little baby.
-Oh, yeah.
