Congratulations on all the awards.
Very well-deserved.
Thank you.
The show is fantastic.
You're fantastic.
Thank you.
[APPLAUSE]
I was really happy to see that it got that kind of attention,
because I'm hoping that people are watching this,
because it is so frightening.
How many people are watching The Handmaid's Tale?
Have you seen it?
[APPLAUSE]
Aw, thanks.
Thank you.
And if you haven't, you can catch up on season one.
Season two starts, I think, any day now.
Yeah, the 25th.
And I've seen five of season two already.
Oh, awesome!
I'm jumping ahead.
And ooh, boy, it's frightening.
Really, I urge you to watch The Handmaid's Tale.
It's so good.
Thank you.
Thanks.
I appreciate that.
And again, well-deserved.
So you posted a picture of you trying to--
I never thought of this before, but when
you win, and you have to go home again and fly somewhere,
you've got a giant, heavy, metal thing.
[LAUGHS] Yeah.
So this was in security?
Is this your Golden Globe?
Yeah.
And my UGG boots.
Yeah, that's my Golden Globe, which they didn't provide me
with a box for.
So I just wrapped it in something
and put it in my backpack.
And this is going through TSA.
And normally, obviously, when you go through TSA,
you're super annoyed if they stop you
and they make you open your bag.
You're like, ugh.
This time, I was like sure, no problem.
Yeah.
[LAUGHS]
Well, you do kind of look at that and go, what is that?
Oh, yeah, it's definitely very suspicious.
Uh-huh.
So then it comes out, and it's a Golden Globe.
Yes.
And he was like, what is this for?
And I was like it's an award for Best Actress.
I mean, I'm sure they see it all.
And he was just like, cool, congrats.
It's like, thanks.
He didn't ask you what show?
No.
He didn't care.
[LAUGHS]
He didn't care?
I think he was just happy it wasn't a sex toy or something.
Yeah, right.
Well, obviously, he wanted to take it out and look at it.
(LAUGHING) Yeah.
Wouldn't you?
I guess.
I don't know.
I don't think I would.
But that's funny that he didn't ask what show or anything.
No.
No, he didn't care.
He didn't care.
He just sent me on my way.
Oh.
Well, anyway, so you have a Golden Globe
and an Emmy for this.
Yes.
Very, very cool.
Thank you.
And you were here for Mad Men recently,
which you were great on as well.
Thank you.
Good choices.
You're making really good choices.
[LAUGHS] Thanks.
We were playing Heads Up?
Yes.
You weren't twerking.
I was going to say, you were twerking.
I wasn't twerking.
That was the problem.
No, you weren't.
That was the problem.
You were trying to twerk, and it was not--
I think we have B-roll of it.
Oh, no.
Why?
Why bring it back?
What is that?
That's not twerking.
It's not anything!
It's not a dance of any kind!
I think I misunderstood what twerking was, which is so dumb.
It's so embarrassing.
I got made so much fun of by my friends for that, by the way,
for not knowing what twerking was.
Do you know what it is?
Why is it on repeat?
Stop it!
Because it's my job to humiliate you.
That's why you're here.
Now, do you know what twerking is?
Yes.
I knew what it was at the time.
I'm so embarrassed.
Prove it.
No!
[APPLAUSE]
Yeah.
That's pretty good.
Is that it?
That's better.
It's better.
That's better.
It's better.
I didn't say it would be good.
But it is twerking.
It is twerking.
It's not whatever that is.
No, I don't know what that was.
I don't even think I guessed twerking.
I don't think I would have known that that was twerking.
Thanks for giving me a chance to redeem myself.
Yeah, you're welcome.
Well, you did, though.
You did.
And I just heard this.
You're doing a movie with Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany
Haddish.
Yeah, yeah, called The Kitchen.
And when are you shooting that?
In May.
I'm starting in May.
Wow.
Yeah.
But it's not a comedy.
No, it's not.
And every time you say it's with Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany
Haddish and it's a mob drama, everyone
goes, oh, my god, that's going to be hilarious.
But it's not.
It's actually a drama.
Wow.
Yeah, yeah.
It's going to be really fun.
And working with those is going a nightmare, I'm sure.
Yes, it's going to be so hard to be around them all day long.
Boring!
Two of the nicest people.
Yes.
So let's talk about Handmaid's Tale.
For those of you who have not seen it,
explain what the concept of this is.
OK, I'll try.
It's a sort of speculative present about a government that
takes over that is run by a very, very strict religion who
basically overtakes everything.
And they enslave women who are fertile
and make them handmaids so that they can give birth
to people who can't have babies, because there's
a huge infertility crisis.
And yeah, that's it in a nutshell.
Coincidentally, you're here on Earth Day,
because there's climate change and it affects fertility.
it affects everything.
Everything that's happening now in our world
happens in The Handmaid's Tale world, including a toxic waste
spill.
And yeah, there's huge infertility problems.
So actually, the only good thing about Gilead on my show
is that it's very green.
There's no plastic.
It's all energy-efficient cars.
(LAUGHING) That's the only--
I know.
--upside.
Because it's like the future, but not so far in the future.
Yeah, exactly.
Because there's a flashback of you and your mom
singing a Gwen Stefani song.
(LAUGHING) Yeah, yeah.
So it's really, really heavy, though.
Like, I watch and I think, how do you do that?
And then I heard that you just nap every day.
You can do a scene like that and go in your trailer
and just fall asleep?
Oh, yeah.
I'm a champion napper.
I am very, very good at it.
At any time, or is it a certain time of day?
I do it at lunch.
For, like, 15 years, I've done it at lunch.
There are specific requirements.
I literally put myself down like a baby.
There is literally things that I have to do.
What are they?
First, I eat something, because you don't wake up hungry.
So I eat something.
It has to be dark.
I put headphones in and put on a white noise app.
And then there needs to be caffeine immediately
upon waking up, immediately upon opening my eyes.
And then you don't speak to me for, like, the first 30
minutes.
And then after that, I'm a new person.
Wow.
That's impressive.
But I got something for your nap time next time.
Oh, my god.
So what do you do is--
[LAUGHS]
--there's this, and then you just pull that down.
Stop it.
This is amazing!
Yeah.
Are you kidding?
Over her eyes, it says.
Instead of "under his eye."
I get it.
Under his eye, over her eyes.
I get it You get it?
Anyone?
You'll watch and you'll get it.
That is amazing.
Should I try it?
Sure.
See if it works.
I don't want you to fall asleep right now, though.
Put them over her eyes.
Over her eyes.
[APPLAUSE]
Relax.
Oh, you're asleep.
This is amazing!
The second season of Handmaid's Tale premiers April 25 On Hulu.
It is on Hulu, and it is so good.
