00:00We are here celebrating all these incredible women today.
00:03What is it like to kind of be here in this room around all these powerhouse women?
00:07I mean, I just found out who's at my table, and I'm freaking out.
00:10Like, you know, I go to these events all the time, but this feels like the one that has the most star power at it.
00:16Pam Anderson's at my table, Anna Kendrick, Julia Fox, Brenda Song.
00:21Like, it's a who's who.
00:22And then I'm next to, like, Nicole Kidman's table.
00:26It's like, it's unreal.
00:27You know, a year ago, I wouldn't have even been in the conversation for this.
00:32So it's, like, it's been, it's crazy how, like, just a year can, like, change your life.
00:36And then suddenly this is, you know, I'm giving the opening remarks to this.
00:39Like, these people have to, like, listen to me talk, and they didn't even know I existed a year ago.
00:43It's fun.
00:44I love that it's, like, a huge, like, sisterhood that, like, everyone has going on here.
00:48But it's really nice.
00:49I know you mentioned Nicole Kidman.
00:50She's being honored with the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award.
00:53What is a project of hers that really wowed you?
00:55Oh, my gosh.
01:00I mean, Eyes Wide Shut was amazing.
01:04I mean, that's the one, the first one that comes to mind.
01:06I mean, what was the Practical Magic?
01:09Was that the one that she was in?
01:11Called Classic.
01:12Yeah, she's amazing in that.
01:13I mean, like, everything she does, she's just insane, like, and she's aging backwards.
01:19Even the AMC moment, like, has become this iconic meme moment that the other day when I went to go see Wicked, people plotted after the AMC thing.
01:35And people quote it, too.
01:36And people quote it all the time.
01:38She's just, like, someone that we've just, you know, watched for so long.
01:43But she's still, she's just timeless.
01:45And, yeah, it's just incredible to be in the same room as her.
01:49Yeah, for sure.
01:49Well, speaking of female-led performances, Wicked, you said you just saw it.
01:53Yeah.
01:53What did you think of it?
01:54I mean, I didn't know much going in because I just didn't grow up, like, knowing much about the musical.
02:00So I went in kind of blindly, and I loved it so much.
02:03Like, I'm just, like, I'm loving these moments where you just go into this world and disappear for, like, a really long time in this, like, girly, fun, like, fantasy world.
02:12Like, I've been to many, many eras tours, and it kind of felt like that same energy.
02:17Like, I got dressed up.
02:18It felt like something that it was just, it felt like a sisterhood in there, you know, even with the guys that were there.
02:23It just felt, you know, in a time where you're just kind of like, oh, this feels weird to be a woman, and maybe things aren't going the way we want it to in every other way.
02:33Like, that's just a place where you can kind of go and escape and feel like, oh, everything's okay.
02:37I loved it.
02:38I mean, it was so good.
02:38I can't wait to see it again.
02:40Like, I saw it in IMAX, so I'm like, I got to see it on my phone.
02:43I got to see it on the regular screen.
02:44I got to see it in an airplane.
02:46Yeah, I got to see it everywhere.
02:47You got to have the wind blowing in your hair.
02:49Yes.
02:50Oh, my gosh, that's a part of it?
02:51Yes.
02:51Yes.
02:51They get the wind blowing in your hair.
02:53Yeah, go get your ticket.
02:54Oh, my God, and some mushrooms.
02:56Yeah, really live it.
02:58I love that.
02:59I know you spoke about the Aeros tour.
03:00Are you going to the final show this week?
03:01I am.
03:04Who knows what's going to happen?
03:05I have a swifty suspicion there's going to be more or something, but I am going to night three in Vancouver,
03:13and I'm very sad that it's ending because it's been such a huge part of my life.
03:17I've gone to 22 shows, but I'm so excited.
03:23I haven't felt this kind of excitement since the first one, so who knows what's going to happen.
03:28And I think it's going to be probably a six-hour show with all the applauding and crying and, like, just us wanting to thank her for all the work she's put in.
03:37Yeah.
03:38Well, thank you.
03:39Certainly it's my mission.
03:42Thank you, everybody.
