- I cannot believe it. I'm here with Lady Gaga.
It's so wonderful to have you here. Congratulations on your nomination.
- Thank you so much. I'm also here with my fellow nominees Frederic Aspiras. - Frederic, hello!
- Hair for House of Gucci. - And Sarah Tanno, for make-up.
- Oh my goodness, congratulations all three of you. What an amazing film House of Gucci is.
I mean you must be thrilled with how it's turned out. - Oh we're so happy and we're happy to be
here together. We woke up every morning at three in the morning together and every minute that I
spent with the script in the trailer I was with them or they were on set with me. So it's just,
it's fun to be here to celebrate all the hard work and to make everybody in the UK smile.
- Well and it's certainly doing that, I can attest. And it's very much testament to your
working style, isn't it Lady Gaga? You always work with a team, you you enjoy
supporting other people, supporting other creatives. You've always done that with the
House of Gaga. - Absolutely, why don't you talk about your creative process. - I mean it was a wonderful
process to be part of a team that we collaborated together. Every morning we would sit and have
meetings every morning to talk about the scene at hand and Sarah and I would have our morning
meetings and have everything prepared. And once we had-- with the whole process was quite the journey
and we're so happy to be here together celebrating tonight. - But is it terrifying because
Lady Gaga is an icon known around the world and you have to make sure she looks absolutely perfect.
Is that terrifying? - Well it was honestly a tall order because the first meeting we had she said
I don't want to see Lady Gaga on that screen. And I have to say I'm very proud that I feel like
her acting really showed through and she fully embodied Patrizia Reggiani. - I mean what a character
Patrizia. She's incredible and a real change actually, yes exactly to how you normally seem.
You really threw yourself into that role. - I totally talked like her for a really long time and my family
was very upset with me and they had to deal with me every day in the trailer. - So you did you do
the accent all the time? - Yeah, I did it. - She was literally-- We were living with Patrizia
every single day. - That must be quite terrifying. - Sometimes towards the end when she started to
get unhinged yes, it was quite terrifying. But yes, magnificent to watch a performer transform
before your eyes. - Every beat of the movie you totally own it, you totally are on the journey with
Patrizia, she's an incredible character. Did you love her? - You know, I had to love her. I had to love
her in order to play her. And I decided that you know, she is someone that committed murder but also
at one time... - There is that bit, I forgot about that. We've all had bad days. - But she's also a
strong Italian woman and she came from a very strong family and she had good values until she
lost her way. So I wanted to really tap into the way that women are multi-dimensional complicated
creatures and the way that we don't deserve to be played in one-dimensional ways. - For sure.
- But that we should be showed in our complexity. And I'm so grateful that everybody's here tonight
and we're happy for all the nominees at the BAFTAs. - Oh well, I've heard that a lot today, I won't lie. I've
heard a lot of people say, yes we're very pleased. - It's true. - I know, I know, I know. But it's nice, it'd
be nice to win, wouldn't it be nice to win? - I think that it's actually mostly just an honour to be here.
With everything going on in the world, I think we know it's our responsibility tonight to be
entertainers and take care of the public with art. - Absolutely and I do think great storytelling
it breeds great empathy. - And I think we actually do feel like we've won already because we've got
to work with each other and the people I love to work with every single day so it really is such an honour.
- It's fabulous to see such camaraderie and such care amongst creative people so
congratulations all three of you. I hope you have a wonderful time. The whole journey's come
full circle, you've come from an Italian family in the Sopranos to an Italian family in House of Gucci.
- A very different Italian family. - Yeah for sure. - And we'll be back also this July at Tottenham at the
stadium. - Oh brilliant! - Over there to perform. - Oh wonderful. - So you'll see them go from film all the way to stage.
- Well you deserve all the credit all the joy. Have a wonderful time tonight, so great to meet you. Thank you
for making time to stop and talk to me. Enjoy your evening. Congratulations, congratulations. Thank you.
