00:00Eight down, but Chloe, it's gotta be.

00:03That's a really cute clue.

00:05Wow, can I not spell the...

00:08I couldn't spell, I gotta use the eraser, you guys.

00:12I'm attracting murder mysteries?

00:14Yeah, I don't know if that's a good thing, but.

00:22I do crossword puzzles, the small ones,

00:25and I'm pretty good at it,

00:27and I get very frustrated when I do it wrong,

00:30when I can't get something.

00:31It plagues me all day.

00:33Here's the problem, though, that I will tell you,

00:35is that if I'm really good at this crossword puzzle,

00:38then that means that I'm really, really good at myself,

00:42or like narcissism, so I don't know how good I should be.

00:45The first one down,

00:46there is only one guy out there for you,

00:49and he isn't him.

00:51It's gonna be John Tucker.

00:53Oh my God.

00:54Wow, this is very hard to write with.

01:00Okay.

01:01It doesn't look like John Tucker,

01:02but I know it's John Tucker.

01:03People do reference it a lot,

01:04and especially with even The Hunting Wives,

01:06people have said, you know,

01:07you just played another version of Kate

01:10from John Tucker Must Die,

01:11and I didn't even realize that

01:12until someone told me that a couple days ago,

01:15so maybe I'm just repeating myself.

01:17There is a script for a sequel.

01:19I don't know what the status of the movie is.

01:21I think, like Kate, I'm the last person to know.

01:25Okay.

01:26Down to Murder, She Wrote.

01:30This is really long.

01:33It's not Harry's Law, because it's too long.

01:37Hmm.

01:40Murder, She Wrote.

01:41Wow.

01:42That's a really cute clue.

01:43Is it The Murdoch Murders?

01:45Except here's the problem,

01:46and why I didn't think it was The Murdoch Murders,

01:48is that might not be the title, so.

01:50Just wait for this.

01:51This is gonna take a while.

01:52Mur.

01:57Okay.

01:59Nice.

02:00I actually listened to Mandy's Murdoch Murders podcast

02:03before I had even heard about the show,

02:05and so it was very full circle and strange

02:08to get a call that I was going to be perhaps playing her,

02:11because I knew her so well.

02:12I knew the story so well.

02:14I had watched all the documentaries,

02:15and I wanted to learn her voice physically and emotionally,

02:20and her as a writer.

02:21I just really respected how much that she gave of herself

02:25to this story, and really spearheaded the fact

02:27that this got solved because of her,

02:29and so I was very honored that I got to play her.

02:34Three.

02:35Fictional aca couple that should have happened.

02:39But Chloe, it's gotta be.

02:41Is it?

02:47Oh.

02:48Yeah.

02:50Sorry guys, but Chloe.

02:51It was there, and then it wasn't there.

02:55Kendrick and I didn't see that coming whatsoever

02:58when we filmed the first one.

02:59I feel like Chloe just really didn't have any boundaries,

03:01and we just had a really great friendship.

03:04And then the second one and third one,

03:06we kind of, we knew what we were doing a little bit.

03:08Also, you know, we didn't want to like overshadow the whole thing.

03:12Not that we would, but we would not.

03:14I hope that Pitch Perfect Four happens.

03:17We all love each other so much, and I think we would all do it.

03:21We all talk about wanting to do it all the time.

03:23Oh yeah, maybe I should mix it up.

03:25Okay, four.

03:27Armed spouses.

03:29Four.

03:31I have no clue.

03:36And there's an H that's the second.

03:40Is this a show that I was in?

03:42Oh, jeez.

03:43No.

03:44Yes.

03:45Oh, okay.

03:46The hunting wives.

03:47I'm only promoting that right now, and I can't get that together.

03:54I heard something about the fact that Jill might have hit Abby with her car because she's

04:00limping in the trail video.

04:01I kind of liked that because she is sort of limping.

04:05Anything could have happened, to be honest, because Sophie was so blackout drunk.

04:08And also, why was she so blackout drunk?

04:12You know?

04:13Maybe Margot put something in her drink.

04:16I'm not sure.

04:17I don't know.

04:18I'm surmising, and I have absolutely no insider information.

04:20But I like that people think it's very spicy and sexy because we weren't necessarily going

04:25for that.

04:26We were just going for a little bit of like fun.

04:28And I think that Rebecca Cutter wanted these women to behave badly and sort of be unapologetic

04:34in terms of if men can do this on TV shows, why can't women?

04:38So I feel like it's funny that people think it's so shocking.

04:42I tend to want to remind people that did we all forget about Fifty Shades of Grey and Game

04:49of Thrones?

04:50Game of Thrones, when that was happening, my mouth was on the ground, especially the first

04:56couple episodes with the brother and sister.

04:57I mean, and then this is the spiciest show on television?

05:01I don't think so.

05:03Ummmmmmm.

05:04I'll do it across.

05:06A Florida city that got sun and snow.

05:09Is it where I'm from?

05:12Yeah.

05:13Tampa.

05:14Respect.

05:16Okay.

05:17Oh, Tampa.

05:20I love that it just is what it is.

05:22Tampa.

05:23We've got some greats that came from there.

05:25My parents' favorite restaurant is Bonefish Grill, and that is all you need to know about

05:32Tampa.

05:33That's a big night out.

05:34Adam Shankman's Binky.

05:36Oh.

05:37No.

05:38I thought this was Pacifier.

05:40The Pacifier?

05:41The-oh.

05:42I forgot there was the in there.

05:44Wow.

05:45Can I not spell the?

05:46I couldn't spell.

05:47I forgot to use the eraser.

05:48You guys, don't.

05:49Maybe cut this out.

05:50E-R.

05:51There we go.

05:52Wow.

05:53Sorry, guys.

05:54Adam Shankman is the best.

05:55He put me in my first movie, The Pacifier, and then he also put me in Hairspray.

06:01He's somebody that I can't wait to work with again.

06:05Seven.

06:06This Charlie can't have chocolate.

06:09Dog.

06:10She is a dog.

06:11She does this thing called morning cuddles that we call it where she just comes

06:18up and she puts her head right under my chin and then she just stays there and then like

06:22falls back asleep.

06:24And really that's all you could ever want in a dog is just a cuddle bug.

06:29Eleven.

06:29It locks in locks.

06:34It locks in locks.

06:41It's a movie that I'm in.

06:46It locks in locks, like a key.

06:49All I can see is like it like locks, like pop and lock, but it's not, but it's not bad.

06:54Oh, locks, like hair locks.

07:00Hairspray?

07:01Yeah.

07:02Okay.

07:03Wow.

07:05I did not get, I was thinking like lock of a key and a door.

07:09Hairspray.

07:10Got it.

07:11It locks in locks.

07:12Adorable.

07:13That audition.

07:14I did terribly.

07:15Adam Shankman, the director of Hairspray, he, he called me and he was like, well, that wasn't

07:20great.

07:21I got really in my head.

07:22I got really nervous and I, my voice cracked.

07:25I did pretty well at the dancing, but the singing part was, was really awful for me.

07:29And so he said to me, you know, it's really funny.

07:33We just got Michelle Pfeiffer on to connected to play Velma von Tessel.

07:38And so it would have been really iconic if you guys were both in it.

07:41And I remembered that a psychic had told me two years before that I was going to be in

07:46a huge movie with a iconic, beautiful blonde woman playing my mother.

07:51And so I called him back and I said, and he will attest to this because it's such a crazy

07:56story.

07:57I said, I went to the psychic and I know this sounds insane, but the psychic told me that

08:01I'm going to play Michelle Pfeiffer's daughter, basically.

08:05And he said, that is the craziest story.

08:08You're so insane that I'm going to let you audition again.

08:10I think he maybe just felt bad for me or thought I was losing my mind.

08:13And so I auditioned again and nailed it.

08:16And that's how I got the role.

08:18So when in doubt, go to a psychic.

08:2112, 2022's X cuts deep in this genre.

08:26So it's probably horror.

08:29No, just kidding.

08:32Cuts deep.

08:34X cuts deep.

08:35Slasher?

08:36I said that the most proper way of saying slasher ever.

08:40Slasher?

08:41I never thought that I would be in a slasher movie like that, and I loved every minute

08:46of that.

08:47That was such a great time.

08:48Eight down, big night to die for.

08:52Oh, prom night.

08:53There we go.

08:54I got that one.

08:56Right.

08:57Wow.

08:58Look at me.

09:00I did not get to go to my own prom, actually.

09:02Prom night was my prom.

09:03That was my big night, was getting dressed up to go to work every day in a prom dress for

09:08two months.

09:09So I felt like I really did it then.

09:12So nine is down directorial feature debut.

09:19That is parachute.

09:20Parachute.

09:21I know how to spell that because I spelled it a billion times.

09:27I think the word to best describe me as a director would be a collaborator or a chameleon.

09:38Starfish.

09:39So it's a- it's Pisces?

09:41Yeah.

09:42Okay.

09:43I am a Pisces.

09:45True blue.

09:46I'm very sensitive.

09:47Way too sensitive for my own good.

09:49Definitely an empath.

09:50Really bad with money.

09:51Not because I spend it too much.

09:52It's because I, I, I keep it.

09:53Like, I'm really, like, cheap.

09:54empath really bad with money not because I spend it too much it's because I keep

09:59it like I'm really like cheap I'm frugal very frugal and I don't know if that's

10:04the Pisces thing or if that's just a childhood thing my girl Drew Barrymore

10:07she's a Pisces I feel like that's our queen okay 10 down the light guides this

10:13flower the light guides this flower maybe I'm just not familiar with my work

10:27it's gonna have something to do with the flower isn't it Daisy wow that is a deep

10:34cut Daisy LeMay was my character that I played on on guiding light sometimes I

10:40think to myself my my best acting was when I was a kid because I wasn't really

10:46aware of what I was doing I was just all working on instinct a lot oh and I could

10:50memorize anything it was you know monologues long especially when you're on

10:54a soap opera they they give you 50 pages of dialogue that you have to know that

10:59day and so I could memorize really well and so I still think about that time

11:03being being really helpful and also instrumental and knowing what kind of

11:08actor I wanted to be 14 number of seasons you lived the dream Oh of

11:14American dreams three three seasons I didn't realize how good we we had it

11:21when we were filming that show how special that show was I was going to work

11:24every day at 16 years old and also doing math problems on the side I didn't

11:29realize that we were making a show that was going to be so magical to so many

11:33people and so yeah I miss it a lot this was a nice little rundown memory lane I

11:38feel sorry for the things I didn't remember but proud of the things that I

11:43did
