[Applause]
it's my first time is your first talk
show huh well it's good to have you here
no just you know once the nitrous kicks
in you'll be fine everything okay you're
alright how did you get into acting
let's start at the beginning of your
life um okay so maybe not the beginning
I know what happened at the beginning my
parents did the same disgusting thing I
did a lot of acting growing up and then
I felt I needed something more secure
why studied economics and worked at
Goldman Sachs in McKinsey and then I had
kind of an awakening
at what age um 23 so you're well on your
way into this career in financial
whatever right yes I was on the path you
wanted the path yeah and did people tell
you what are you doing why are you
getting off the path yes yes it was
crazy and you did not listen to them no
why what happened what was that what
made me decide to do it um the moment I
remember that I realized I wanted to be
an actor was when I was watching Parks
and Rec okay I saw this football player
I went to college with oh and he had a
little bit part on the show and I just
felt this rush of jealousy oh
overwhelmed with jealousy I'd had to
turn it off I couldn't even watch
anymore Wow
yeah it was visceral and that football
player was OJ Simpson
no until you wow that's weird have you
run into that football player to all the
friends I don't think he knows that
story
oh he inspired you in a way to get into
acting I mentioned in your introduction
you got married two weeks ago
- Damien Chazelle is phenomenally
talented and looks like he's 12 years
old
right yes yeah he why aren't you on a
honeymoon right now if you got married
two weeks ago I mean wouldn't you want
to be under pressed or fair oh well yeah
sure no we had we had 24 hours in Paris
oh you did we're promoting first man
it's the primary goal right when your
husband directs the movie yeah do you
have to audition for the movie yes he
made me audition oh you did did he sit
there like this
no he kind of had me to go through
casting and the producers oh he did I
see he said you know I'm gonna he didn't
want to be to play him right yeah cuz
it's a little bit weird I guess huh and
it's funny because Jamie Lee Curtis was
here she her husband is a very talented
genius director as well and then you
guys now have this but they've never
worked together whereas you you've done
both movies with him yes yes that's nice
isn't it yeah do you expect to be in all
of his films um no well why not all
right yeah yeah I want to ask you about
something because Emma Stone was here's
a couple years ago after lala land won
Golden Globes and let's take a look at
this video because
won the Golden Globe there's game in
that's you right there and he looks
nervous and he's confused and he first
hugs Ryan Gosling and then there's like
a bit of a traffic jam let's look at
that again in slow motion and see if we
can just figure out what happened
there's like I better go up walk wait
hold on it yep sorry
and then Emma Stone apologizes was Emma
at the wedding and if so when they said
you may kiss the bride did she know I'm
glad you're asking about thank you emma
has taken the blame for this moment and
it was actually my fault so how was it
worth all well in the award shows
leading up to the Globes Damien a couple
times he would win yeah and kind of be
in a daze and just get up and head to
the stage hug Ryan Gosling on the way
uh-huh
accept this award we must pattern okay
that was a little bit embarrassing for
me oh because he was going for Ryan Ryan
so I said you win tonight maybe you
could hug me first or just hug me at all
uh-huh and so then he would you know he
gets then he wins and he gets up and
does the same thing he decides Ryan
right and then angel realized this so he
turns pivots very quickly right which I
would have been you know Emma was next
in line right and but he turned and
hugged me and you know so yeah and
there's and ironically the movie like
was so well choreographed in that moment
was sold
choreographed yeah now do people know
that you call him Angela or have we just
revealed that on television for the
first time and will you tell angel I
think he did a great job with the moon
[Applause]
angel is very very talented please don't
well you know what it's the drugs is the
drugs we give they get we give the
gamecocks before they come out well
