I'M A HUGE FAN OF YOU IN THE SHOW AND YOU HAD MY HUSBAND ON A

>> Stephen: WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE YOU
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) AS I WAS SAYING IN THE
INTRODUCTION, YOU'RE A FILM STAR, A TONY WINNER, A STAR OF
STAGE AND SCREEN.
YOU STARTED OFF AS A SECOND UNDERSTUDY IN THE "WEST-END OF
LONDON."
SEE IF I'VE GOT THE RIGHT PHOTO.
IS THAT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT?
>> THAT'S ME, BABY.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: HERE WE ARE.
( LAUGHTER ) >> WELL, YEAH, I WAS A SECOND
UNDERSTUDY AND IT'S LIKE A SHOW WITHIN A SHOW.
I WAS SECOND UNDERSTUDY AND THE STAR WAS OFF ON HOLIDAY.
>> Stephen: IN REAL LIFE.
IN REAL LIFE.
THE FIRST UNDERSTUDY HURT HER KNEE, AND, SO, I WAS 17 YEARS
OLD AND I WAS LITERALLY THROWN ON.
>> Stephen: AS THE LEAD IN THE WEST-END OF LONDON.
>> I WAS IN THE CHO RUSS.
THE PRODUCER WAS IN LONDON CHECKING ON THE SHOW.
I WAS IN THE AUDIENCE, HE CAST ME.
I PLAYED THE ROLE FOR TWO YEARS WHEN I WAS 17, 18.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) I'M JUST A TAP DANCER.
I'M A HOOFER AND PROUD OF IT.
>> Stephen: JUST LIKE JIMMY CAGNEY, YOU'RE JUST A HOOFER.
>> A HOOFER, HONEY.
>> Stephen: YOU WON AN OSCAR.
I'M NOT SURPRISED NOW BECAUSE I DID NOT KNOW YOU WERE A HOOFER
BUT YOU WON YOUR OSCAR FOR CHICAGO.
KEEPERS CAN I POINT SOMETHING OUT HERE?
I WANT TO POINT OUT SOMETHING HERE.
YOU HAVE BOB HAIRCUTS IN BOTH THESE BUT THEY'RE VERY DIFFERENT
BOB HAIRCUTS.
>> THEY REALLY ARE.
>> Stephen: IT'S A SUBTLE DIFFERENCE.
>> IT'S THE JAZZ THAT DOES IT.
I HAVE TAP SHOES ON HERE AND I HAVE A SERIOUS JAZZ FACE AND
JAZZ HAND.
>> Stephen: WHAT'S A JAZZ HAND?
DO.
THAT AGAIN.
>> Stephen: I STUDIED HAND DANCING FOR A LONG TIME.
>> ALL RIGHT.
>> Stephen: WHAT IS JAZZ FACE?
JAZZ FACE IS -- AND THAT'S JAZZ...
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: DO YOU HAVE TO SAY
"AND THAT'S JAZZ" TO GET THE FACE DOWN?
>> YEAH, AND THAT'S JAZZ...
( LAUGHTER ) OKAY.
I'LL SING AND THEN "AND THAT'S JAZZ" AT THE END.
AND ALL THAT JAZZ ♪ >> Stephen: AND THAT'S JAZZ...
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) IS THAT JAZZ?
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING
ABOUT!
YEAH.
>> Stephen: PUT ME IN.
PUT ME IN.
>> YOU'RE IN THE SEQUEL.
>> Stephen: I HAVE ANOTHER PHOTO HERE.
YOU'RE A SEAMSTRESS.
>> I'M MAKING CURTAINS.
>> Stephen: DO YOU MAKE PROTOTYPES AND THAT SORT OF
THING.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: BECAUSE THIS IS YOU STARTING TO MAKE THESE.
>> I THINK I'M IN MY PAJAMAS THERE.
OH, NO, I'VE GOT CLOTHES ON.
THAT'S OKAY.
>> Stephen: HERE'S THE FINAL PRODUCT.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: YOU MADE THOSE DRAPES RIGHT THERE.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: WHERE DID YOU LEARN -- THAT'S A BIG THING.
WHERE DID YOU LEARN THIS?
>> MY MOTHER WAS A SEAMSTRESS.
MY GRANDMOTHER WAS -- MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER, IF IT WAS A ESHOW
YEARS AGO CALLED UPSTAIRS DOWNSTAIRS, WHERE THE RICH
PERSON WAS UPSTAIRS AND MY GRANDMOTHER WAS DOWNSTAIRS IN
THE RICH PEOPLE'S HOMES, AND SHE USED TO MAKE ALL THE LADIES'
UNDERWEAR AND GARMENTS AND SEW LACE AND SHE TAUGHT ME.
THIS ACTING THING JUST CAME OUT.
I SHOULD BE MAKING PILLOWS.
IT'S A GREAT CREATIVE OUTLASTLET FOR ME.
I LOVE DOING IT.
NOW I GET TO DO IT AS A BUSINESS.
IT'S FUN.
>> Stephen: YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND LIVED ON BERMUDA HOW
MANY YEARS NOW?
>> WE LIVED THERE SINCE MY SON WAS ONE.
WE BROUGHT THE KIDS UP THERE.
YOU HAVE KIDS PROBABLY AROUND THE SAME AGE AS MINE.
>> Stephen: PROBABLY OLDER THAN YOURS.
>> OKAY.
>> Stephen: THE MY KIDS ARE 45.
( LAUGHTER ) >> THEY'RE NOT, ARE THEY?
>> Stephen: MID 40s.
YOU'RE LOOKING REALLY GOOD.
>> Stephen: YOU, TOO.
MOISTURIZE.
I'LL SEND YOU MY DOCTOR'S NUMBER.
EXACTLY.
>> PLEASE.
>> Stephen: I'VE ACTUALLY DRIVEN BY YOUR HOUSE.
>> ANYWAY, IT'S A CRAZY WORLD AND THESE KIDS DON'T ASK TO BE
THROWN INTO HI -- INTO THIS SCRUTINY.
>> Stephen: DID THEY KNOW YOU'RE FAMOUS?
>> IT WAS SO FUNNY, WHEN MY KIDS WERE AT SCHOOL, THEY WERE DOING
OCCUPATIONS AT THE SCHOOL, YOU KNOW.
>> Stephen: WHAT DO MOM AND DAD DO.
>> WHAT DO MOM AND DAD DO.
AT THAT TIME, I WAS DOING, LIKE YOU MENTIONED, "INTOLERABLE
CRUELTY" AND ALL THAT STUFF, AND MICHAEL WAS LAYING LOW AND
ENJOYING FATHERHOOD FOR THE SECOND TIME AROUND AND THAT
STUFF.
SO IN "THE OCCUPATIONS" THE KIDS SAID MY MOM MAKES MOVIES, MY DAD
MAKES PANCAKES.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: THAT'S NOT BAD.
AND THEN MIKE IS LIKE, DAMN IT!
TWO OSCARS AND A 50-YEAR CAREER AND MY KIDS JUST THINK I MADE
PANCAKES!
SO CHILDREN ARE SO HUMBLING, BUT HE DID HAVE TO TAKE THEM TO HIS
OFFICE ON THE LOT AND SHOW THE POSTERS AND THE AWARDS.
BUT HE GOT OVER IT?
YOU HAVE A NEW SERIES ON Facebook "WATCH" WHICH I THINK
WE'RE ON, ON THIS SHOW.
IT'S CALLED "QUEEN AMERICA."
YOU MAY A BEAUTY PAGEANT COACH.
WE HAVE A CLIP.
CAN YOU TELL US WHAT'S GOING ON?
>> I PLAY A BEAUTY PAGEANT COACH IF TULSA, RUTHLESS, DETERMINED,
DEMANDING.
>> Stephen: GOT TO BE.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE.
BUT IT'S A WORLD WHICH FASCINATES ME BECAUSE, ON THE
OUTSIDE OF THE SHOW, YOU THINK IT'S VERY FLUFFY AND FRIVOLOUS,
BUT IT'S A REAL, REAL FRACTURED CHARACTER I PLAY, AND THEN -- I
THINK THE CLIP OF THE SHOW IS ME WITH MY NEW FUTURE PAGEANT
QUEEN, AND I'M JUST TRAINING HER WITH A BIG ARGUMENT WITH MY
SISTER, WHO I WAS FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TRACKS AND I
SCRUBBED UP REALLY WELL.
>> Stephen: JIM?
ORDER SOME TAKEOUT.
GOOD.
I'M STARVING.
>> YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED RESTAURANT FOOD.
WE'RE NOT EVEN HUNGRY, WE ALREADY HAD SENORITA TACOS.
IT WAS GRADE D MEAT, AND WE LOVED IT!
( BANG ) ( SIGH )
>> MY FAMILY FIGHTS A LOT, TOO.
SAMANTHA, ONE THING YOU WILL FIGURE OUT DURING OUR TRAINING
IS THAT, ALTHOUGH LEARNING HOW TO SPEAK WELL IS IMPORTANT,
LEARNING WHEN NOT TO SPEAK AT ALL IS EVEN MORE SO.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: SOUND WISDOM.
KIND OF TRUE, RIGHT.
>> Stephen: YEAH.
SO LOVELY TO SEE YOU.
>> SO LOVELY TO BE HERE.
>> STEPHEN: "QUEEN AMERICA" AIRS SUNDAYS ON FACEBOOK WATCH.
CATHERINE-ZETA JONES, EVERYBODY!
