00:00Doors of the elevator open.
00:02Guess who was in it?
00:03Humphrey Bogart.
00:03You would think it would be,
00:05it was Stevie Mother Wonder!
00:08Oh!
00:09Hey, Harper's Bazaar.
00:10I'm Natasha Rothwell.
00:11And I'm John Gry.
00:12And today we're going to answer trivia questions
00:16that are all about us.
00:20I'm not a betting woman,
00:21but I think I will be average.
00:24And I would bet against me.
00:27I would never bet against you.
00:28That's the thing.
00:29I'll bet against me, but not him.
00:31Which runway show did John walk
00:34at New York Fashion Week in 2023?
00:38I'm not Hugo Boss.
00:40I want to say like,
00:43what's that, what is that?
00:44Egg-a-slaughter.
00:45Egg-a-slaughter.
00:47That's, I don't even know.
00:48Is that real?
00:49Egg-house-laughter.
00:50Egg-house-slaughter.
00:51No, egg-house-laughter.
00:54I heard egg-house-slaughter.
00:56No, I'm sorry about that.
00:57And with egg prices right now,
00:58we should not be.
01:00Messing with the egg house.
01:01Anyway, yes.
01:02Okay.
01:03I love that.
01:04I just remember the photos,
01:05and I just, I say,
01:06put those in my book.
01:07I look a little like Colonel Kurtz
01:08in the apocalypse now.
01:09No, you can't.
01:10Walking around with the sword.
01:10Very dapper.
01:11Oh, thank you.
01:12My relationship with the designers
01:15were really set forth by my then fiancee,
01:19now wife, as of Friday, got married.
01:22And she had commented that everybody
01:26from season two was sitting on the sides
01:29of these amazing fashion shows.
01:31And she said, why aren't you?
01:33And I said, because.
01:35I don't want to sit.
01:36I want to walk.
01:37And then she contacted
01:41my egg house and Zoe Lotta,
01:42and then she sent them a picture of me,
01:45and they said, all right.
01:49Which Saturday Night Live host's
01:51opening monologue in 2015
01:56was Natasha's favorite to write?
01:58I'm gonna guess,
01:59because I haven't watched
02:00Saturday Night Live since 1976.
02:04There's like three people that,
02:05Morgan Freeman, Denzel, or Christopher Walken.
02:09Can I get one of the three?
02:11No, none of those.
02:12Although, that would have been great.
02:13It was Taraji P. Henson.
02:15Oh my.
02:16Yeah.
02:17It was this monologue
02:20that was a big choir number,
02:23and it was like a gospel number
02:24called, I Made It.
02:26And she was just like singing about
02:27all the stuff that could have happened,
02:29but thank God she made it.
02:30So it was a fun one to do.
02:32I will say my favorite musical guest
02:34while I was there was Prince.
02:35Oh my God.
02:36Can you believe it?
02:37We all snuck downstairs,
02:39like the writers, to see the rehearsal,
02:42because it was just him shredding.
02:45And then I felt like he disappeared
02:46into like a mist, like a cloud.
02:48Like I looked away and he was like gone.
02:50That's why some people have called him
02:51the Purple Batman, because he just.
02:53Yes.
02:55Disappeared.
02:57In which film did John's character's
03:00nephew deliver the line,
03:03ligers are pretty much my favorite animal?
03:07Napoleon Dynamite.
03:10Kind of an easy one.
03:11I know, but I loved it so much.
03:13I know.
03:14Do you still have the wig?
03:15No, they took the wig,
03:16but I did bring the wig myself.
03:19Did you?
03:20Yes.
03:20After I had a conversation with Jared Hess,
03:24he said to me, well, he runs like this
03:27and he ran down the block.
03:29And I was like, that's the best direction
03:31I've ever had, short of Mike White.
03:33But then he came back and he said,
03:35he's a cross between David Hasselhoff
03:38meets Burt Reynolds meets Elvis.
03:41And I was like, say no more.
03:43I got a wig for that one.
03:44I went to the wig store and I bought
03:45a fake hair wig and the first time
03:48they put the curling iron in it,
03:50part of it melted.
03:51Oh no.
03:52Synthetic.
03:53Yeah.
03:54But they let me wear it.
03:56What was Natasha's job before breaking into Hollywood?
04:01What did you build a website?
04:03Yep.
04:04You told me once.
04:05School teacher.
04:06Yep.
04:07Never forget that because I honor teachers.
04:09Ah, gosh, what was the other one?
04:12There's so many.
04:13I know.
04:14Did you write resumes or something like that?
04:16No.
04:17Something like that.
04:18But she had like 10 different jobs.
04:20Yeah, I was like on my hustle mode.
04:24The website was funny because I literally
04:26couldn't afford the book, HTML for Dummies.
04:30So I went into Barnes and Noble
04:31and took pictures of it with my phone
04:33and then went back home and tried to put together this.
04:35A website.
04:36Website design, yeah.
04:38And it was just, and I invoiced and got paid for it.
04:42Let me just say, I'm still learning how to text.
04:45So it's just a joke.
04:47What name does Greg give himself
04:51in the White Lotus season three
04:53when Belinda confronts him?
04:55Gary.
04:57Gary, Gary, Gary.
04:59Obviously this is going to be airing after the 16th.
05:02Yeah.
05:03Because I would have just said.
05:06Frank.
05:06Don't say it.
05:07Don't say it.
05:08Bob.
05:09Bob.
05:10Not the most clever.
05:11No, clearly he's a little bit limited
05:12because it was like Gary, Gary, Greg.
05:16It's almost like, you know, it's like a puzzle.
05:19And it was so top secret.
05:23So top secret.
05:25NDAs were signed.
05:26In fact, it'll probably be beeped out
05:29when you show it on this thing.
05:31It is.
05:32What did Tanya McQuad give Natasha's character
05:38at the end of White Lotus season one?
05:41If I were to venture a guess,
05:44what Tanya, my future wife,
05:49gave Belinda,
05:52I would say it was a stack of dollar bills.
05:57The props department really were just like
05:58turning the screws.
05:59I was just like, this is, come on.
06:02I'm pretty sure it was wands.
06:04Like it would just look like.
06:05A big old wad of a hundred dollar bill.
06:08Yeah, a hundred dollar tip of wands.
06:10What current Oscar nominated actor
06:15did Natasha team up with
06:17to fight against the chocolate cartel?
06:21Oh my gosh, of course.
06:23Of course.
06:25Which one?
06:26I know.
06:27Okay, let's see.
06:30Timothee Chalamet.
06:31Ah!
06:32Wonka.
06:33Boom!
06:34He was so sweet on set.
06:37That was one thing I remember about him.
06:38He was just like so sweet.
06:40And there were legions of young Londonites,
06:46little women, like flocking set.
06:49And he was so like, as if that was normal.
06:53And it was just so cool to see him.
06:55Just like, there's a couple of hundred women
06:59screaming your name right now.
07:00And he was just really present and cool.
07:02Amazing.
07:03Which viral TikTok story time series
07:07did Natasha acquire the rights for?
07:11Well, I wasn't in the room.
07:12I don't know about the meetings.
07:14Sometimes I feel like I'm on the outside looking in.
07:17I've never been to a pitch meeting for Crying Out Loud.
07:20So.
07:21It's actually apropos considering
07:22that you've just gotten married.
07:24Yes.
07:25The series was called Who the Fuck Did I Marry?
07:29And it was about a woman who got scammed.
07:32Oh.
07:32It went super viral.
07:34And I was tagged.
07:35Smart.
07:36And it was a screenshot of a fan
07:38who had created a movie poster for me starring in it.
07:41I watched it and became obsessed.
07:42And then we got the rights.
07:44And now I'm going to be playing her.
07:49The final round is a rapid round.
07:52Last TV show you binged.

08:13Your way to the courthouse.
08:15Yeah, oh yeah.
08:16The directions to the courthouse to get married.
08:19Last time you were starstruck.
08:21Right now.
08:22This was last week.
08:24Friday.
08:25I was in this hotel.
08:26I was going down after doing press.
08:29And the doors of the elevator opened.
08:31Guess who was in it.
08:32Humphrey Bogart.
08:33You would think it would be.
08:34It was Stevie Mother Wonder.
08:37Oh.
08:38Stevie Wonder.
08:41And then I just screamed into the open elevator door.
08:44Oh my God.
08:46Like at that level.
08:47And he probably knew you by your voice.
08:49He was, no.
08:50But definitely he was startled by my exclamation.
08:55But I got to meet him, which was great.
08:56Amazing.
08:57I love it.
