>> James: HOW ARE YOU?
GOOD.
>> James: IT'S DELIGHTFUL TO SEE YOU.
HAILEE, ALWAYS GREAT WHENEVER YOU'RE HERE.
LEE, WE'RE THRILLED.
THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME ON THE SHOW.
WE'RE SO HAPPY THAT YOU'RE HERE.
GLORIOUS TO SEE YOU BOTH.
ARE WE GOOD?
>> SO GOOD.
>> James: GOOD.
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS, STEINFIELD, BECAUSE I SAW
YOU RECENTLY AND I DIDN'T KNOW BECAUSE THIS IS HAILEE STEINFELD
AT THE MET GALA, RIGHT.
>> YES.
>> James: THIS IS HOW MUCH I SAW YOU.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) I WAS STAYING IN THIS HOTEL.
>> OH, WERE YOU?
>> James: I RECOGNIZED THIS WALLPAPER AND I SAW YOU AND
DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS YOU.
>> WOW.
>> James: LOOK, I'VE NEVER SEEN YOU AS A BLONDE BEFORE.
I WAS PROBABLY THE ONLY PERSON WHO DIDN'T RECOGNIZE YOU THERE.
>> NO, THAT WAS MY NIGHT THAT CONSISTED NOBODY RECOGNIZE MEG
AND WOKE UP TO A BUNCH OF TEXT MESSAGES WITH PEOPLE WHO SAID I
HAD NO IDEA WHO I WAS TALKING TO THE WHOLE TIME.
I HAD BEEN TO THEIR HOUSE FOR DINNER.
NO, IT DIDN'T COMPUTE.
>> James: DID YOU REALIZE HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU KNOW WHO ARE
ABSOLUTELY FULL OF ( BLEEP ), WHO PRETEND THEY KNOW YOU EVEN
THOUGH THEY HAVE NO IDEA.
>> YES, QUITE A FEW.
>> James: WHERE DID THIS IDEA COME FROM TO GO AS A BLONDE AND
LOOK LIKE THIS?
>> IT WAS MY TENTH YEAR AT THE MET SO I FIGURED LET'S TAKE
SHAKE IT UP A BIT.
>> James: I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN YOUR INSPIRATION
FROM LEE IN THE HOBBIT BECAUSE LOOK AT THAT.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
>> James: YEAH.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) I MEAN, IF YOU LOOK AT HIM SIDE
BY SIDE -- >> I KNOW, IT'S REALLY HARD TO
TELL WHO'S WHO, RIGHT?
>> James: YEAH.
LEE, YOU CAN ANSWER, DO BLONDES HAVE MORE FUN?
>> ABSOLUTELY, RIGHT?
>> James: SURE, SURE.
LEE, SO THRILLED YOU'RE HERE.
I'M A HUGE FAN OF YOURS.
I DIDN'T KNOW THIS ABOUT YOU.
YOU LIVE IN UPSTATE NEW YORK.
>> MM-HMM.
>> James: IS THIS RIGHT?
TELL THE TRUTH.
IT SAYS THAT YOU BUILT YOUR OWN HOUSE, YOU PHYSICALLY BUILT IT.
DID YOU REALLY OR ARE YOU BEING ONE OF THOSE ACTORS THAT --
>> NO, I REALLY BUILT IT.
>> James: YOU 100% BUILT IT.
WHAT I BUILT WAS A TIMBER FRAME.
SO I WENT TO MAINE AND I LEARNED HOW TO BUILD A MORTICE TINDER
FRAME AND I BUILT IT MYSELF.
I CARVED ALL THE PIECES.
I GOT MY FRIENDS TOGETHER AND WE PEGGED IT TOGETHER AND PUSHED IT
UP.
IT SAT OUT IN THE FIELD BECAUSE I WORKED THE NEXT TWO YEARS.
I WOULD MAKE MONEY, PUT A ROOF ON IT.
MAKE MORE MONEY, PUT UP WALLS AND A DOOR AND A WINDOW.
I LIVED OUT THERE FOR A WHILE WITH NO WATER OR POWER.
IT WAS REALLY NICE.
>> James: YOU BUILT THE WHOLE THING?
>> YEAH ( APPLAUSE )
>> James: IT'S A LOT OF THING PEOPLE WOULD IMAGINE THEY LOVE
TO DO AND NOBODY DOES IT.
>> I WAS INTERESTED IN PEOPLE WHO DO IT BECAUSE THAT STARTED
ME ON THE MISSION.
I WAS INTERESTED IN GUYS WHO WERE, LIKE, I WANT TO FIGURE OUT
HOW TO DO THIS STUFF.
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT PUTS THE ROOF OVER MY HEAD.
>> James: I DON'T.
IT'S A BIT LIKE LA CROSSE.
>> I MADE A LOT OF MISTAKES.
I DID MAKE A LOT OF MISTAKES.
>> James: DID YOU.
YEAH.
I CAME BACK THERE, HADN'T BEEN THERE FOR A FEW MONTHS.
I HAD TO GO SHOOT "GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY" --
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) -- AND I GOT BACK AND THE WHOLE
PLACE WAS COVERED IN MODEL, THERE WAS A DEAD SNAKE ON THE
FLOOR, BEAR POOP AT THE DOORSTEP, AND I WAS, LIKE, I'VE
GOT TO FIGURE OUT A NEW HOME.
>> GOT TO REBUILD.
YEAH.
>> James: IF I BUILT A HOUSE, I WOULDN'T SLEEP IN IT AND I
DEFINITELY WOULDN'T LET MY CHILDREN SLEEP IN IT.
EVEN THOUGH AI TEMPTED TO SLEEP, I WOULD BE, LIKE, THERE'S NO WAY
THIS IS STANDING UP TOMORROW, NOT A CHANCE.
NOW YOU FLEW TO GEORGIA THIS WEEKEND TO WATCH YOUR BROTHER.
>> YES.
>> James: I DIDN'T KNOW, HE DOES THIS.
( ENGINE REVVING >> THAT HE DOES.
>> James: THAT'S YOUR BROTHER!
SO COOL!
>> James: DRAG RACING, IS THAT WHAT IT'S CALLED.
>> James: IS IT AS COOL AS IT LOOKS?
IS IT TERRIFYING WATCHING YOUR BROTHER DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
>> OH, YES.
IF YOU WATCH CLOSELY HIS TWO FRONT TIRES ARE OFF THE GROUND
AND IT'S A 3800-POUND TRUCK.
IT'S ABSOLUTELY INSANE.
BUT THAT CAR, THAT TRUCK, MY PARENTS GOT MY BROTHER FOR HIS
15th BIRTHDAY AND WASN'T RUNNING SO WELL.
BUT THEY TOLD HIM IF HE COULD FIGURE IT OUT, HE HAD A CAR WHEN
HE GOT HIS LICENSE.
CUT TO IT'S BEEN OVER A DECADE, HE'S RACING THIS, WINNING RACES,
SETTING HIS PERSONAL BEST RECORDS.
IT'S ABSURD.
>> James: HOW FAST DID HE GO?
HE WAS OVER 165 IN AN EIGHTH MILE.
HE'S SO FUNNY BECAUSE HE'S LIKE STAND CLOSER!
WE'RE AT THE START LINE.
I SAID, HERE'S THE THING, I'M GOOD FROM THE STAND.
I'M TOTALLY OKAY.
YOUR TEETH ARE CHATTERING WHEN YOU'RE STANDING THAT CLOSE.
IT IS THE MOST ABSURD.
I'M SAYING THIS.
I'M, LIKE, WHAT THE HECK IS HE FEELING IN THE CAR?
IT'S CRAZY.
>> James: WOULD THIS APPEAL TO YOU, LEE, TO DO SOMETHING LIKE
THIS?
>> YEAH, I'D TRY IT.
SEE HOW IT GOES.
>> James: ALL I'M GETTING ON THIS INTERVIEW IS THAT WE ARE SO
DIFFERENT BECAUSE I WATCHED THAT VIDEO AND I WAS, LIKE, YEAH, NO,
I'M NOT GOING TO -- >> IT'S AMAZING.
>> James: I'LL TAKE YOUR WORD FOR IT.
I'M, LIKE, NO.
>> OKAY.
>> James: JUST -- YOU CAN CATCH US AT THE NEXT
RACE.
>> James: WOULD YOU GO IN THE CAR WITH HIM.
>> I HAVE BEEN.
>> James: AT THOSE SPEEDS.
OH, YEAH.
NO, IT'S THE GREATEST THING.
I WOULD NEVER BE BEHIND THE WHEEL, BUT --
>> James: BUT YOU ARE DOING IT.
YOU ARE IN THE CAR.
>> SURE.
I CAN WATCH FROM A DISTANCE AND GET IN EVERY NOW AND THEN, BUT
THAT'S ABOUT IT.
>> WOW.
>> James: I THINK I MIGHT SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.
I WOULDN'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DRIVING IT.
>> YOU HAVE TO LET MY BROTHER TAKE YOU.
>> James: DRAG RACE-WISE MY MAXIMUM RuPAUL'S
( LAUGHTER ) LET'S TALK ABOUT "DICKINSON."
MASSIVE SHOW IS ABOUT TO START.
>> THANK YOU.
>> James: WHAT'S HAPPENING AS WE REACH THE END OF THE STORY.
>> THIS IS OUR THIRD AND FINAL SEASON, WITH SI SO WILD, BECAUSE
I FEEL LIKE I WAS HERE YESTERDAY TALKING ABOUT THE LAUNCH OF
SEASON ONE.
IT'S VERY MUCH COME FULL CIRCLE.
I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS SEASON TO COME OUT, WE'VE KIND OF
CAUGHT THE DICKINSON FAMILY AT A DIFFICULT AND HOPELESS TIME AT
THE MIDDLE OF THE CIVIL WAR, AND EMILY IS DESPERATELY FINDING A
WAY TO BE A SOURCE OF HOPE AND LIGHT AND SHE FINDS THAT SHE CAN
BE ULTIMATELY THROUGH HER WRITING WHICH LIVES ON TODAY.
