It's good to see you again.
Last time you were here, you were six months pregnant.
I was.
You were cranky, because you couldn't have margaritas.
Oh, so cranky.
It was so annoying.
And I was up for an Oscar.
I had to do all of that without drinking.
It's impossible.
It is quite, yeah.
How old is she now?
She's now 3 and 1/2.
So and she's sleeping through the night?
Only just about a week and a half ago for the first time.
We should celebrate.
Bring out the margaritas.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
Thank you.
I would lift it, but my back is out.
So he's going to pour it for you.
And if you run out, there's extra.
I think I could actually finish all of that.
Perfect.
Thank you so much.
Can I?
Chug, chug.
Can I?
Yes, of course.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
How's that?
It's just great.
Yeah, every talk show host should offer margaritas.
At least a jug like that.
At least a jug, always.
So she's three years old.
What is she into?
She already knows what she wants to be, right?
It's changed.
She did want to be a dentist, which I was super happy about.
I thought, you know, that's a stable career.
What got her into dentistry?
That's a good question.
I'm not quite sure.
I think that she--
Peppa Pig.
You know Peppa Pig?
Oh, sure.
There was a dentist episode.
She wanted to be a dentist.
Whatever.
Now, she wants to be a lion.
Oh.
Which I think is slightly more problematic.
Yeah, not a good living.
She roars very well.
Is that what she's practicing-- roaring?
Very much so.
Right, but what if she would want to be in this business,
would you like that, or does it matter to you if she
wants to be in this business?
I am going to support her in anything that she wants to do.
That's the right thing to do.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
A little chickie wanting to be a lion,
but yes, she's allowed to do whatever she wants.
If she's an actress, she could be a lion.
That's the thing.
Well, that's the thing.
Exactly.
And she could be a dentist.
She could do whatever she wants.
She can do a bit of everything.
That's the beauty.
And she's banned from seeing certain children's movies,
right?
Yes.
What are they?
Cinderella banned, because she waits around for a rich guy
to rescue her.
Don't.
Rescue yourself, obviously.
[APPLAUSE]
And this is the one I'm quite annoyed about, because I really
like the film, but Little Mermaid.
I mean, the songs are great, but do not give your voice up
for a man.
Hello?
Wow.
So yeah.
I love the Little Mermaid, so that one's a little tricky one.
But no, I'm keeping to it.
She is, however, allowed--
Dory is a big favorite in our house.
Of course.
There's nothing wrong with Dory.
Frozen is huge, Moana too is fine.
No, there's some good ones, but mainly Dory.
All right, so let's talk about The Nutcracker.
You play--
I play the sugar plum fairy.
OK, and there's a lot-- what was that hair you had?
I mean, cotton candy.
Was it real cotton candy?
No, we did actually try with real cotton candy,
but then I had a lot of bees, and wasps,
and flies following me.
And I know that's a really bad idea.
It looks like cotton candy.
It does look like cotton candy.
But that would melt under the lights anyway.
It would also melt under the lights,
but it was quite fun trying, but quite a good idea
not to keep it like that.
I don't know.
I look a bit like a kind of psychotic cake, really,
don't I?
Yes.
Well, you look like a beautiful psychotic cake.
Thank you.
But there's a lot of glitter involved in that too.
Oh, yes.
We shot it almost two years ago.
And I think I've still got glitter in my house.
It's impossible to get it off of everything.
I'm telling you, I think it should be outlawed.
It should.
Like plastic straws, glitter should be outlawed.
When someone sends you a card, and you open the envelope,
and you're like, argh!
They didn't warn you glitter was inside.
And it's on your fingers, and then it's on your face,
and then it's on someone else's--
It's a disaster.
It is.
And I was covered in it for about four months
while we were making the film.
It was a disaster.
You can't get it off.
No, you really can't.
Did you read that in the contract?
Couldn't you say no glitter.
It is very definitely now in my contract
that I won't with glitter.
No glitter.
Absolutely not.
That should be like a rider in your dressing room.
You request no glitter in a in role ever.
And your daughter-- what is she going to be
for Halloween, by the way?
Oh, I don't know.
I think she wants to be a witch, which I think is a bit boring.
Before she was 3.5, we just got to dress her up.
So we'd just dress her as the stupidest thing
that we could find.
Normally, very pink and horrific.
But now, she wants to be a witch.
And so that's going to be a bit dull, but cute.
Well, we got her something, because we
know that she was vacillating between being
a lion or a dentist.
So now, she can be both.
Oh, yes, perfect.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
Shall I sit it next to me?
Yeah.
And so when you see something like that trick-or-treating,
that's her daughter.
You'll know that's my daughter.
You'll know.
It's a one of a kind.
We made that for you.
Well, Nutcracker and Four Realms is out November 2nd,
and it looks wonderful.
And you're not going to be affected by the glitter
just by watching it.
So we'll see it.
We'll be right back.
Thank you so much.
