There are new additions to your family,
and I want to hear their names.
There are.
Aw!
We got two golden retriever horses.
[LAUGHTER]
They are-- they're three to four times this size now.
And they're pretty.
They're not very bright.
No.
[LAUGHTER]
They're really not.
I love them dearly, but it's like living with models.
They're super pretty--
[LAUGHTER]
--but they're not-- they're not that smart.
And you know what, they don't have to be,
because everybody just gives them things
because they're pretty.
Yeah.
[LAUGHTER]
So it's like they'll never come out of that cycle.
They just-- they literally will go up into the yard
and, like, catch a breeze.
And I will look out, and I'm like, my god,
it's like they found a wind machine.
And like, their hair is blowing.
I'm like, they know where to find, like,
their light in the wind.
[LAUGHTER]
But then, they'll, like, run into walls, and I'm like, aw.
Yeah, aw.
[LAUGHTER]
But they're cute.
Yeah.
And do you-- have you made the mistake of throwing a ball yet?
Because you should never start that with those dogs.
They also-- yeah.
And they make noises when they get something in their mouth.
They don't do it when they don't have something,
but the second you give them a toy,
they're like [MAKING DOG GRUNTING SOUNDS]..
[LAUGHTER]
And it's panic.
It's like caught in a bear trap sound.
That's hilarious.
[LAUGHTER]
And it's like an on and off switch.
I mean, I have done it, where I'm like
[MAKING DOG GRUNTING SOUNDS].
[LAUGHTER]
It's the most frantic--
What are their names?
Sorry about that.
The sound person must love that.
Homer and Harper.
And they don't know.
They don't-- they don't know their names?
[LAUGHTER]
They don't know.
They have no idea.
You could call them, like, Bubbles and, like, Havisham,
and they just are like--
[LAUGHTER]
I've never met dogs that, like, do not know their names at all.
It's kind of fascinating.
That's hilarious.
All right, no one's going to be getting a golden retriever
after this.
[LAUGHTER]
No, but they're sweet.
They're so sweet.
All right.
But they're pretty, yes.
We're back with Melissa McCarthy in the new movie
Life of the Party.
It's a great concept.
It really-- you and your husband, Ben, wrote it, right?
We did.
Directed it, starred in it, catering, everything.
Catering, dog wrangling, everything.
There was a dog in it.
So tell everyone what it's about.
It's a great idea.
It is.
I-- we're taking our daughter to college.
It's like the first time she's going away,
which I can't even imagine.
And on the way out, we're kind of like, here we go--
empty nest.
We're going to take trips, we're going
to do all these beautiful things.
And then, my husband-- you know, like she-- my character
is very excited about the possibilities,
and my husband immediately says, I want a divorce.
Aw!
I know.
Right?
And she is crushed by it, because she's
devoted kind of everything in, and her one
regret-- she doesn't regret being a mom or a wife,
but she regretted not finishing school.
And when she kind of pulls herself--
my best friend in the movie is Maya-- oh, Molly, look.
My best friend's Maya Rudolph in it and kind of helps me, like,
pick myself up, who's--
Maya is a dream.
And I go back to college.
And I go back to college at the same school as my daughter.
[LAUGHTER]
Which I keep telling my kids, I'm like,
won't that be fun, when we go to college together?
But it's really sweet and hopeful, and I just--
I always loved that concept of, like, it is never too late
to do anything.
It's never too late to change and accomplish anything.
And like I said, it's a great idea because, you know,
it's a horrible thing that, all of a sudden,
this man just decides I want a divorce right when
you're-- but you never-- she never would have gone back
to school had that horrible thing--
Yeah.
You have to look at, like, all that life gives you.
Yeah, I think she reevaluates.
Like, what-- was it that good?
Was it that happy?
Or can I be even happier, and like accomplish something
that I'm really proud of?
So it's a really--
there's a lot of joy in the movie and it was fun to make.
Yeah.
And you're working with your husband again.
And that's always fun.
He's hilarious.
That's always fun.
OK, so let's take a look at-- and what
was it like making out with the handsome guy with your husband
directing?
Like, did he--
Professionally speaking, Luke--
Luke is amazing.
We meet and kind of hit it off, and end up in a relationship.
We may end up-- there's some making out in a library stack.
And that scene was--
we shot that scene on our 11th wedding anniversary
for Ben and I.
[LAUGHTER]
On the day, which I thought, thanks, Ben.
So he was weirdly yelling out things like,
can you grab his butt in the next take?
And I was like, Yes, professionally.
[LAUGHTER]
Professionally speaking, I can.
And it was crazy and funny.
And Luke just kept going, happy anniversary.
[LAUGHTER]
That's hilarious.
