Transcript
00:00Oh, that's loud. Oh, God, God. Last sex you... Okay. Oh, God, this is really good.
00:06It's kind of gross. I don't know. Ah, this is a fine day. Okay. Hi, I'm Courtney Cox and I'm
00:13playing Pop Quiz with Marie Claire. Oh, that's loud. Sorry. Beep, beep. Whoa. I used to like
00:22that as a kid. Okay. What is the best gift you've received? I will say, I mean, this is
00:29just because it was recent and I really do like it. I got a beautiful tree from my
00:33partner and I just look at it. I love trees. I love plants and, you know, hopefully it'll
00:38be around forever. Oh, God, guys. Hell. Okay. Last... I'm so glad this says not what I
00:46thought it said. Okay. Last sex you... Okay. No, last text you sent. I actually sent... Oh, God,
00:54it's going to make it all about my partner. I sent my partner a picture from this photo
00:58shoot that we did today. I didn't get a response. Whatever. Okay. Oh, God. Word your
01:05friends would use to describe you. Nonjudgmental. I get that all the time and I think that's
01:11true. Except for I'm going to judge this. I have to do this again. Okay. Okay. Last song
01:19you got stuck in your head. Oh, okay. I'm going to say Tiny Dancer because I do these cold
01:26plunges and I get so cold and I hate being in them that I look at the words, the lyrics
01:33to songs and I go to a certain length. Like it's got to be a five minute song so I can
01:39stay in there. And Tiny Dancer, there's so many words that I didn't know were in there.
01:42I mean, I didn't think it was just Tony Danza, like friends, but I also didn't realize like
01:47he's in linen or something, wrapped in linen. I thought that was something. I don't know.
01:51There's words that you didn't realize. I recommend it highly. Lyrics. Look at them.
01:57Word that makes you cringe. Oh, I'm not a cringe person. I don't like smell. I don't know why.
02:03Smell, I have visuals. When I was a kid, I used to open the refrigerator and my mom had
02:08collard greens. Just smelled so bad. Am I doing all these balloons?
02:14Yep. Oh, s***. Okay. Oh my God. They're behind me and everything. Okay. Ready?
02:22Last book you read. I had to color it in. Let's put it that way. Last book I read. I mean,
02:29really? You feel bad. Could it have been a documentary that I watched? My journal. Okay. Sorry.
02:35Favorite dance move. Show us. Oh God. God. All right. I mean, I don't know what this one is. I don't
02:43say it's my favorite. I could do that Bruce Springsteen move that I did for the video. I could
02:49do David Schwimmer. What else? That's all I got. I'm so angry about it. I'm still stuck on the book
03:00question. What should every woman try at least once in her life? I mean, it doesn't have to be a
03:05woman, but I'd say a Fritos inside of a turkey roll up. I would say jumping out of an airplane,
03:10but I wouldn't do that. How did you make your first dollar? All right. My first dollar I made
03:17when I was, well, besides babysitting, I mean, we all babysat it when we were kids and I'm sure I
03:23did it before this, but my first job was I used to go after school and call for this foundation
03:31first Alabama. And it was for, um, mentally challenged people. And I used to ask for money
03:37just randomly. And I got hung up on a lot and I ate a lot of wacky wafers while I was working,
03:44but I made $3 an hour. It was good.
03:46Very angry. I didn't know I was this angry guilty pleasure watch on TV or streamer. I think any true
03:54crime doc would be my guilty pleasure. I even like YouTube TV where you see people in interrogation
04:01rooms and you watch them come in all confident and then they just, they sink and sink until they
04:07confess. I love that. Okay. Do you have any secret talents? I used to be able to do things with my
04:13fingers, like push them back, but that, you know, it goes away with age. I used to be able to touch
04:18my tongue to my nose. I don't even know. I haven't done that in a while. Oh, oh God, this is really
04:23good. It's kind of gross, but I can put my tongue back in my mouth and then look like a frog.
04:28Like literally have a bubble.
04:35Ah, this is a fine day. Okay.
04:37Go-to late night snack. Um, I would say a peanut butter filled pretzels or I listen, I seem obsessed,
04:46but I do love Fritos.
04:51Oh, okay. What makes you feel most powerful? Confident.
04:56Um, when I'm living in gratitude, when I feel grateful and then I go out in the world and I feel
05:01confident, or when I say the world, I mean like to the kitchen or, you know, I don't like God that
05:06much. So I feel great. Okay. God, I don't have to be so angry and mean about it. God, I'm going to be
05:14so much more gentle for the last two balloons. What advice would you give your younger self?
05:20Learn to say no at an early age and know that you're still, you're okay. Take care of yourself,
05:26but don't be selfish, but just learn to say no. You get more respect.
05:34Nope. See, you do have to, Oh God.
05:38The number one thing on your bucket list. No, I assume that means something I haven't done.
05:43I used to, I thought it was to go to, to go on safari in Africa, but then I realized I probably
05:50wouldn't survive the morning or evening feedings. So I now just think making pasta in Italy with a real
05:59Italian chef and staying there for a month and just making mozzarella and pasta and taking walks and it
06:08not be too hot and having a great time. It's my last one.
06:12Okay. Most starstruck moment. I got to meet Diane Keaton the other day, which was huge, but my very first
06:23moment that I was like, Oh, I can't believe it. I met Morgan Freeman and I just love him. I mean,
06:29Shawshank Redemption was just one of my favorite movies of all time. So I went up to him. This is
06:34years and years ago when I said, I'm such a fan, please be nice. And this would really blow it for me
06:42if you weren't nice. And he was such a gentleman, great. And I was so thankful. I had to ask because
06:47you just don't know. Some famous people are not as nice. He is. That was pop quiz from Marie Claire.
06:54Thanks for watching.
