-Welcome back. They love you. -Wow! [ Laughs ]
-Come on! -I'm, like, blushing.
-I know! Come on.
Welcome back to the show. Thanks for coming on.
I appreciate this. We have so much to talk about.
First of all, congratulations. You're married.
-I am, yes. -This is fantastic!
[ Cheers and applause ]
How does it feel? I met your husband.
-Yeah, you did! You met Bader.
-I met him backstage.
How does it feel? Are you...?
-It's great. I mean, it's amazing.
I met my person.
You never know if you're gonna find that in life,
and he's an amazing guy, man, and I love him,
and we're a great team.
-I'm so happy for you.
How long have you been married?
-We've been married since April.
-Yeah. -April 3rd.
-I love it. Does it give you a whole new perspective on life?
And you go, "Oh, yeah," you have a buddy now that you can...
-You just get to share everything with someone.
And it's so special.
Everything becomes that much more important, I feel like.
-I always wanted to tell you, by the way,
I listened to your podcast.
-Yeah. -"The Lohdown."
And you're very good. I mean, are you...
Usually, you're on the other side getting interviewed.
But do you like interviewing people?
-I was so nervous when I did my first interview.
Because I'm used to getting the questions asked to me.
I'm not used to asking the questions.
-But you're good at it.
-Well, I got good at it.
[ Both laugh ] -Oh, the first...
I can't even watch the first -- -I was, like, sweating
the first one. You can't see that
on the podcast, but... -Oh, I can't watch
my first "Late Night." I can't even look at it.
I'm like... -I think I was here for that.
-I think you were here the first week.
Thank you for doing that. I was stuttering.
I was flop-sweating. It was rough. It was rough.
-And now look. -Well, congrats.
Yeah, now look. Yeah.
Can we talk about "Falling for Christmas"?
-Yeah. -It's on Netflix.
This is my type of movie, by the way.
I told you backstage, I'm so into these movies,
these holiday movies.
I want "Love, Actually" every day of the year.
Yeah, that's what I want. -That's my Christmas choice too.
-That's what I want all the time.
But let's -- can we set up what this one's about?
-So, it's a girl who kind of is an heiress
that has pretty much everything
and something happens to her,
she gets in a bad accident
and she gets amnesia
and remembers nothing.
-Yep.
-And I think it's a beautiful story
because it's about how we always want more things in life
but the simple things really mean the most to us in the end.
And that really -- I connected with that.
I love that. -It's gonna crush.
I'm so happy. -And it's really funny.
I do a lot of physical comedy in it, which was fun for me.
-Yeah, and you sing in it, by the way.
-I do, yeah.
-Can we talk about this? 'Cause -- no!
[ Cheers and applause ] We love your voice.
We want more singing.
But the song of choice is "Jingle Bell Rock."
[ Cheers and applause ]
Now, let me...
Let me remind anyone who doesn't know,
but the last time you sang "Jingle Bell Rock" in a movie
was in... [ Audience cheers ]
..."Mean Girls.
[ Cheering continues ]
How -- -Thank you!
How did it come about?
Whose idea was it to do "Jingle Bell Rock"?
-Well, it was a joke, actually.
I was kidding around with the producers
and the director, and I was like,
"Oh, it would be great to do, you know, like,
a 'Jingle Bell Rock' skit."
And I -- I shouldn't have said it,
because they went straight to, "Oh, let's re-create
the 'Mean Girls' talent show scene."
I was like, "Oh, no, no. You can't touch 'Mean Girls.'"
Sorry, that's like... You can't do that.
[ Laughs ]
So then they were like, "Oh, can you do the song?"
And so I was like, gotta do the song.
-Yeah, you got to give them what they want.
Why not? [ Cheers and applause ]
-Everyone's loving it. -I hope everyone likes it.
-Ah, it's perfect for the holidays.
There was also -- I saw recently,
Jamie Lee Curtis was being interviewed and they said,
"Would you ever want to do a 'Freaky Friday' sequel?'
or something, and she said, "I have a great idea for it
and I talked to" -- I think she said
she talked to you or pitched you an idea.
-We did speak about it, yeah.
-And is there any truth to -- is it moving forward?
Or is anyone -- -First of all,
let's just take the fact that I was on set
filming at the time,
and Jamie Lee Curtis writes you, and you just get excited
and distracted immediately. -Of course.
-So, I had to bring myself down to earth and be like,
"Okay, I'm on set, I have to focus."
And then she said "Freaky Friday 2,"
and I got more excited. [ Laughs ]
-Yeah, but then also the fans were like, "Wait, this is good."
And the idea for the plot was good, too.
-[ Laughing ] Yeah, it is. -Which, so -- yeah.
But I mean, is there anyone --
-We would both be into it.
-You would? -Yeah.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Let's get on this. -I'm not gonna say no to Disney.
-Let's make this into a thing.
[ Applause ]
Any "Mean Girls 2"?
-I think that's in Tina Fey's hands.
-Okay, okay. -And Lorne Michaels.
-Tina, I know you're watching.
Yeah, let's make that happen, as well.
I want to show everyone a clip, though, of your new movie
right now, "Falling for Christmas."
Take a look at this.
-We just ran out of pumpkin pancakes,
but if you'd like, I can make you some eggs.
-Oh, please. I'm perfectly capable
of making my own breakfast.
♪♪
It's broken. -Yeah, no, you just gotta...
You gotta push it in and then twist it.
-Thank you.
Oh! This comes out fast.
-Egg? -Thank you.
-Oh!
Well, you showed that egg who's boss.
-[ Chuckles ] A little messy.
-You know what? Um... Why don't you sit over there,
and I will take care of... all of this.
-Okay. Good idea.
[ Cheers and applause ] -Ohh!
I love Olivia.
-Olivia Perez. -Olivia Perez. I love her!
What a great actress. So cute.
Lindsay Lohan, everybody!
[ Cheers and applause ]
"Falling for Christmas" is streaming now on Netflix.
Lindsay and I are doing something fun
after the break. Stick around, everybody.
