-Last time I saw you was
at the big giant Met Gala here in New York.
-Yes, that was so crazy because, number one,
the Met, I, like, I worship, and I've always wanted to go.
And I remember, I saw you from across the room.
And I was, like, "Man, I was on his show.
And I sure hope he remembers me."
Because I absolutely loved being on your show.
And then you came up, and not only
did you, like, give me a hug,
but -- I don't know if you remember -- you helped me
with my train as we were going into the dinner.
And I was, like, "Okay, so he remembered me,
and he's helping me with my train."
It was, like, such a -- I was so starstruck.
-Oh, my God. -I was.
-Yeah, I do remember this. Oh, my God. Look how gorgeous.
Come on, I remember that. -Yeah.
-Yeah, so you needed help with that train.
-Yeah. -That's not me,
but I wish it was. [ Laughter ]
I wish it was me. Yeah, whoever that guy is, yeah,
not too shabby.
You got to do something very cool recently.
You traveled to Vietnam and worked with Michelle Obama?
-Yes. -How did this come about?
-I don't know. Okay. So I got a call.
And I have a scholarship.
I'm from Vietnam and I was adopted from Vietnam.
And I have a scholarship that puts Vietnamese girls through
high school education.
And she has the Girls Opportunity Alliance,
which is all about educating young women.
And our values, you know, coincide.
And all of a sudden I got this phone call, like,
"Would you like to go to Vietnam with Mrs. Obama?"
And I was like, "Uh, yes!
I absolutely would." -Like, "Now?
I mean, I could pack a bag quick."
-"I'll leave now." -Yeah.
-Exactly. And so we went.
It was my first time going home since I was adopted.
So, I actually, I got to visit the orphanage
where I was from for the first time.
-When did you leave? At would age?
-I was 4 months old. So I was a baby.
But the orphanage is now a nursing home, ironically.
But the curtains, the paint, like, the windows,
everything was the same.
And then right after that I got to go work with Mrs. Obama
and speak to girls about the importance of education.
And I stayed up all night long
for, like, months, thinking, like, "How will I greet her?"
Because -- -Yeah, no, I understand, yeah.
-Like, it's not the monarch, so you don't bow.
-Nope. [ Laughter ]
-But she's my Queen. [ Laughter ]
So she's kind of like, I don't really know.
-Yeah. -And so I ended up being like --
I just froze. And when she walked in,
I was, like, frozen.
And then I was like, "Okay, I'm not going to give her a hug.
I'm not going to make any sudden movements because
the Secret Service" like, I don't want to be --
Like, I don't want to -- you know?
-No one's going to snipe you out.
-I don't know. [ Laughter ]
And she just came in and like, gave me a big hug
in her beautiful arms.
And I was like, "I love you."
-Yeah, yeah. -She's amazing.
-I know. I love her, too.
Here's you with President Obama, too.
-Yes, I also met the one and only.
-What did you say -- what did you say to him?
He's pretty cool. -I blacked out.
I made -- okay, the honest-to-God truth is I met him
after I had met Mrs. Obama.
So, I was really just living in her world.
And when I met him, I was, like, "Hi!
Like, you know, I think you're so great,
but I think your wife is even more amazing."
[ Laughter ] And then I was like,
"But why did I say that?"
But he was so kind. 'Cause he was like,
"I get that all the time." [ Laughter ]
And I was like, "Oh, God, okay."
-I want to talk about the movie.
"To All the Boys I've Loved Before."
That was a giant hit.
I would say one of the first, like, kind of Netflix movie hits
that everyone was talking about.
So much that you made a sequel.
-Yeah. -And I think --
The first one was great.
I think this one is a little bit better.
-Really? -Yeah, I like it, yeah.
-Oh, my gosh. -Because, "P.S. I Love You."
I liked the plot twist to it. And I love you and Noah.
-Yeah. -You and Noah Centineo.
-Mm-hmm. You guys have -- -He was just on your show.
-I love that dude, man. I love him.
I know you love him too. -I do. I really do.
Listen, we were just talking about it the other day
since we're doing all this press to promote
"To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You."
And we were talking the other day and I was like,
"Thank God we don't hate each other.
Like, this would be a miserable experience."
'Cause we spend so much time together.
-Yeah. -But he's so great.
And the movie's awesome.
And it's a trilogy in the books, right?
So we were hoping to get a sequel.
Then when we got it, I was excited because I felt like
Lara Jean had a lot more to grow as a young woman.
And she's doing a lot of things for the first --
-Will there be a third one? -Yeah.
-Oh, really? -We finished shooting it.
It's done. -Wait, what? That's done?
-Yeah. -The third one's done as well?
-Mm-hmm. -No way.
-Yeah, so we shot 2 and 3 --
-You gotta come back for that one.
-I know. You're going to get sick of me.
-No, I love you. Are you kidding me?
But for this one, how do you want to set this movie up?
There's, like, another --
-There's -- it's, like, a true, honest, true love triangle.
-Yeah. -There's a new character,
John Ambrose McClaren,
who's played by the amazing Jordan Fisher.
And he kind of comes in and rocks the boat.
And we had the premiere a couple days ago, and we had a bunch --
like, the fan screening and everything.
And people were going nuts. They were, like,
screaming at Lara Jean, like, "Why?!"
[ Laughter ] And it was awesome.
-Isn't that fun? Well, we love you.
I want to show a clip. Here's Lana Condor
in "To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You."
Take a look.
-Dear John Ambrose, I hope this letter finds you well.
Have you continued your interest in politics and diplomacy?
I'm sure you're even more smart, considerate, and adorable.
What am I saying?
I can't say that. Dear John Ambrose,
what lovely penmanship you have.
When I saw your name on the envelope,
my heart skipped a beat, and then I --
Oh, my God.
I cannot do this.
Do I have to tell Peter about this?
-Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Lana Condor, everybody.
