01:06Welcome, welcome, welcome to The Tonight Show!
01:11Oh, yeah!
01:13Thank you for being here. Well, guys, this weekend,
01:15there's a historic winter storm hitting most of the country
01:19that's bringing brutal temperatures and over 20 inches of snow.
01:23Ooh.
01:25Greenland heard and was like,
01:26Well, you wanted us. You got us.
01:32Yeah, today, Southwest Airlines canceled hundreds of flights,
01:35although that had nothing to do with the storm.
01:38Everybody stay warm, though, okay? Stay warm, okay?
01:41This weather is rough. It's cold.
01:42I mean, it is so cold, Al Roker walked into a Chili's
01:45and sat on the fajitas. That's what happened.
01:47It is free... It's freezing out there.
01:50This morning, on my way to work,
01:52I saw a Wall Street stockbroker spooning with Zoran Mamdani.
01:55What?!
01:55Yeah, it's freezing out there.
01:59That is cold.
02:00Let's get to some news here today.
02:02In Switzerland, President Trump officially launched
02:04his new group to solve international conflicts
02:06called the Board of Peace.
02:08Yeah, of course.
02:11Trump wasted no time giving himself
02:13the inaugural Board of Peace Prize.
02:15He's like, I can't believe it.
02:16I can't wait to win again next week.
02:20While people are still talking about Trump's big speech
02:23in Switzerland, he really relies on the teleprompter, you know?
02:26It's interesting to see what Trump's staff puts on it
02:28to get them to say what they want. Watch this.
02:31And we had a $41 billion deficit.
02:36$41 billion with this beautiful place.
02:39There are windmills all over Europe.
02:42There are windmills all over the place.
02:45And they are losers without us.
02:49Right now, you'd all be speaking German and a little Japanese, perhaps.
02:53And growth doesn't mean inflation.
02:55We've had tremendous growth.
02:56The United States is keeping the whole world afloat.
03:01Many places. I could give you six, seven places.
03:05Just over one year ago, under the radical-left Democrats,
03:09we were a dead country.
03:11Now we are the hottest country.
03:15That's how they...
03:16I didn't know that. That's amazing.
03:21Well, some business news.
03:23Elon Musk just said that, by the end of the year,
03:25Tesla will have a widespread network
03:27of driverless robo-taxis across the U.S.
03:32Yep, the driverless robo-taxis will join
03:34Tesla's fleet of buyerless Cybertrucks.
03:38Switching gears to some big entertainment news.
03:40This morning, the Oscar nominations were announced.
03:43Yeah!
03:44And...
03:47And Sinners got a record 16 nominations!
03:54That's amazing. I love Sinners.
03:57Yeah, yeah, sure, sure.
03:59What? I mean, I like that.
04:01But you know what horror movie I also loved?
04:03Paranormal Activity.
04:05Okay, yeah, that's good.
04:07What about Silence of the Lambs?
04:09Also my jam.
04:11Annabelle?
04:11I think it's swell.
04:13Halloween?
04:14Every scene.
04:16Get out?
04:17Man, no doubt.
04:19Poltergeist?
04:19Saw it thrice.
04:21Frankenstein?
04:21Always divine.
04:22Final destination?
04:23No hesitation.
04:24A quiet place?
04:26Look at my face.
04:28What about the ring?
04:30Ding, ding, ding.
04:31You like scream?
04:31Of the crop, it's the cream.
04:33Dr. X?
04:33It's better than sex.
04:35What about the nun?
04:36Hell yeah, son.
04:37Blair Witch?
04:38You know it be...
04:38See?
04:41You almost got me, man.
04:42But wait, no, no, no, I haven't seen that one.
04:45Oh, it's good.
04:45You should come over and watch.
04:47No, thanks.
04:49Tariq Trotter, everyone.
04:50Right there, Tariq.
04:56Wow.
04:57Wow.
04:58Method actor, yeah.
04:59He really got into it.
05:00He's still in character, man.
05:03Posted more movie news in a recent interview.
05:05Matt Damon said that Netflix wants characters in their films
05:08to repeat story details three or four times
05:11in case viewers are on their phones.
05:14Yeah.
05:14I don't know.
05:15Take a look at this Netflix rom-com.
05:17See if you can spot it.
05:18Tara, I know this is just a fake relationship
05:20that we started to get back at our exes,
05:23but I think I'm starting to have feelings that are real.
05:26You have feelings, Dylan?
05:28Yes, Tara.
05:29Real Dylan feelings in our fake Dylan-Tara relationship.
05:33Real feelings?
05:33Yes.
05:34That you have?
05:35Yes.
05:35For me?
05:36Yes.
05:37And you're Dylan?
05:37Yes.
05:38And I'm Tara?
05:38Yes.
05:39I can't do this anymore.
05:43Do what?
05:44The fake relationship.
05:45No.
05:46With you.
05:46No.
05:47The relationship that we fake.
05:48No.
05:48You are Dylan.
05:49And you are Tara.
05:50And we're conflicted about our fake relationship.
05:53Did someone say margaritas?
05:56Yes, we both said margaritas in the scene
05:58where we met in Mexico 45 minutes ago.
06:01Ah, see?
06:03Yes.
06:04It's subtle, but you can tell.
06:05I got it.
06:09Hey, I read that a recent Delta flight was delayed for hours
06:12after de-icing fluid leaked into the cabin and soaked the passenger.
06:18Delta was like, well, he's not covered in ice, is he?
06:21On the bright side, at least they helped him find the hole in the plane.
06:28Finally, guys, earlier this week, the Indiana Hoosiers made history winning their first college football national championship ever.
06:37They had an undefeated season.
06:39And, of course, they were led by quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza.
06:44And he was...
06:48What?
06:49What are you talking about?
06:51Wait, what are you talking about?
06:53Yo!
06:53What's up?
06:54What are you doing?
06:55Fernando Mendoza!
07:00Fernando!
07:03Fernando!
07:03What are you doing here?
07:05Jimmy, everybody knows that tonight's show is where champions go.
07:08So here I am.
07:09That's right!
07:10Come on!
07:10That's where you are!
07:13Since you're here, I have to ask, how does it feel to win Indiana's first ever football championship?
07:18Well, we finally got our coach Zignetti to smile.
07:21So that was the biggest accomplishment.
07:23No, but for real, Indiana's been predominantly a basketball.
07:27Yeah.
07:27And football's been in purgatory for the longest time.
07:30And our team, with Coach Zignetti and a whole bunch of under-recruited guys,
07:34guys who have already been down in their entire lives,
07:36now finally marked as national champions, it means the world to all of us.
07:44It was the most exciting game.
07:46It was the most exciting game ever.
07:48And I remember I was watching it in the fourth quarter when you dove in for that touchdown.
07:52Yeah.
07:53What were you thinking?
07:54First of all, look at this.
07:57Look at this.
07:57That's you!
07:58That is me!
08:00Bang!
08:00Bang!
08:01Oh, my God!
08:05That's a good impression.
08:06That's a good impression.
08:07That's a great impression.
08:08Were you like, no one's open?
08:09I got to do this?
08:10So it's a running play.
08:12And I'm a quarterback.
08:13I'm a passer.
08:13So at first, I'm like, okay, here we go.
08:16And I'm supposed to run left.
08:17And all of a sudden, some instinct tells me, let's run right.
08:21So it's like when you missed your exit on maps.
08:23And you're like, oh, shoot.
08:24Like...
08:24Yeah.
08:25You're like, who?
08:26Oh, shoot.
08:26Here we go.
08:27But luckily, it was the exit to a touchdown.
08:28Yeah!
08:29And then, like you said...
08:31Legendary!
08:32And then, like you...
08:34And then, like you said, I saw these huge football players in front of me, and I was
08:38like a human pinball machine.
08:39I was like, boom, boom, bang.
08:41Yes!
08:41Getting banged up.
08:42And all of a sudden, I'm in the air.
08:44I'm like, might as well reach for the touchdown because I'm so banged up.
08:47I don't know if I'll be able to get up after.
08:48So, here we go.
08:50And you got banged up.
08:50And you got banged up.
08:51And you got banged up.
08:52Well...
08:54Congratulations on a record-breaking season.
08:56And actually, since you're here, how about we break more records?
08:59Let's do it.
09:00Sounds good.
09:01All right, here we go.
09:01All right.
09:04All right, here's what we're gonna do.
09:06Okay?
09:07I'm gonna throw these records in the air.
09:11Okay?
09:11And you're gonna throw footballs at them and see how many you can break in 30 seconds.
09:15All right.
09:16Okay? 30 seconds.
09:17This is like my combine?
09:18Yeah.
09:19Yeah.
09:20No, you already got the job, bud.
09:22Don't worry about it.
09:23All right.
09:23Let's break some records.
09:2430 seconds on the clock.
09:25Okay?
09:26And then I'll start throwing the records.
09:27Ready?
09:28Mark.
09:29Get set.
09:29Go!
09:38Save it!

15:11Always love it when you come on.
15:13I want to say congratulations on your Los Angeles Dodgers,
15:16once again, winning the World Series.
15:17Yes, sir!
15:18I know you love them so much.
15:19We talked about it last time, and you're so into the team.
15:22And, gosh, you do a lot for the team.
15:24And you get really emotional if they don't win.
15:27And I don't want to jinx anything.
15:29Mm-hmm.
15:29But they won two things.
15:30And you told me that you made some vow.
15:33Oh, you're going there now.
15:35An odd vow that if they won...
15:38I made a vow that if they won back-to-back World Series,
15:41that I would streak Dodger Stadium butt-naked.
15:43Yeah, that's right, yes.
15:44Now, I know you, and I know that you're...
15:47I'm a man of my worth.
15:48You really are.
15:49You don't have to be, though.
15:51No, no, but I do.
15:52I publicly said this, and I'm saying it on your show right now.
15:55So I will be running butt-naked through Dodger Stadium,
15:58wearing nothing but ankle socks and cleats.
16:02How about a hat, though?
16:04I'll have a hat.
16:04It may be adorned someplace, but I will...
16:06I'll have a hat.
16:09But I will...
16:10How are you going to get away with this?
16:11I don't know if I can get away with it, man.
16:14There are 8,000 cameras in Dodger Stadium.
16:17So somebody...
16:17But we were going to videotape it ourselves anyway.
16:20Yeah.
16:21But in front of people?
16:23I never said I would do it in front of people.
16:25Okay.
16:26But there's always people in Dodger Stadium.
16:29So there may be a handful of people who get to see it live.
16:31But I plan on doing it before the start of the season.
16:35But before they receive their new championship rings,
16:37I might give them their rings.
16:40Really?
16:41Naked.
16:44Hey, and how's Cedric the Entertainer?
16:47Cedric is doing good.
16:48I love Cedric the Entertainer.
16:49Yeah, so do I.
16:50Funny dude.
16:51Funny dude.
16:52One of my dearest friends about to start Broadway.
16:56Oh, my gosh.
16:57To Raji P. Henson.
16:59They're doing Joe Turner's Come and Gone.
17:00So I just want to plug in for that.
17:01Holy moly.
17:03His television show, The Neighborhood, is coming to an end after eight seasons.
17:07And he's going to go to Broadway.
17:08So I'm excited for my friend.
17:09Broadway.
17:10But me and my boy started a barbecue business.
17:13Yeah, tell me about this.
17:14Now, how did this start?
17:15And what's going on?
17:15Because I'm excited about this.
17:16I love barbecue.
17:17That's it?
17:17Okay, well, we started a business called AC Barbecue.
17:22It started with three rubs.
17:23And then we put two sauces in with it.
17:26And what?
17:28How did it just work?
17:29Well, I like to cook.
17:30Said likes to eat.
17:31And so we created these things.
17:34I was like, wait.
17:35I didn't even snuck that in there.
17:37No, but this is what.
17:38You know, we hired some culinary scientists to come together.
17:41And we created all of these blends and these flavors that...
17:44Oh, really?
17:45You're about to just go in there like that.
17:47Okay.
17:47Yeah.
17:48Oh.
17:49If that's what you're going to do, man, you need to go for this Caroline wine.
17:52Yeah, that was the all day.
17:54You need to go for the Caroline wine.
17:57Caroline.
18:01You like that, right?
18:03Yo, that's the jam.
18:04Yeah.
18:05That's the jam, dude.
18:07That's what I love.
18:08Caroline wine.
18:09Yeah, the Caroline wine.
18:09You got the one on.
18:10I'm sorry about that.
18:11That's the real deal.
18:12Yeah.
18:13Do you have a slogan for this?
18:14Uh, yeah.

18:35No!
18:35Why would I do that?
18:36No, I don't know why.
18:37I don't know.
18:37I'm just saying there's options.
18:39There's always options.

19:06We have Chrissy Teigen, Jelly Roll, and Sarah Michelle Geller.
19:11But the fourth judge is the viewing public.
19:15So anyone who has a Netflix account, and there are hundreds of millions of people who have Netflix accounts around
19:20the world, they can vote for their favorite artists.
19:22But you have to watch it live to vote.
19:25Yeah.
19:25Yeah.
19:25And we could all make a star.
19:27You could all make a star.
19:28And it's an amazing show.
19:29I love Star Search.
19:30I have actually a list of everyone who's appeared on Star Search.
19:33Who do you got?
19:34Well, you got Martin Lawrence.
19:36Martin Lawrence.

19:56I love, dude.
19:57Yeah.
19:57Sam Harris, Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
19:58That's my jam, dude.
20:00It really is.
20:01And Sharon Stone.
20:02Yeah, but let's talk about the people who didn't make it.
20:06Sarah Michelle Geller auditioned for the show.
20:07Stop.
20:08You're joking.
20:08And she didn't make it.
20:09And now she's a host.
20:11A judge on the show.
20:12Shows them.
20:13Yeah, what's up?
20:15Another tidbit.
20:17John Legend auditioned for Star Search and didn't make it.
20:21Wow.
20:22Tough judges.
20:23Tough judges.
20:23Tough judges back in the day.
20:25Yeah.
20:25Hey, you were telling me, what was the one that was on last night or two nights ago?
20:29Oh, yeah, yeah.
20:30Our Wednesday night show.
20:31We had this gentleman, this brother from Hammond, Louisiana.
20:35Bear Bailey is his name.
20:37You know, looks exactly like Jelly Roll.
20:41Face tattoos.
20:42Overcame the obstacles that Jelly Roll did.
20:45Picked a Jelly Roll song before, months ago, before Jelly Roll was even a part of our show.
20:50And the judges never know what song these artists are going to sing.
20:54So he came out and as soon as the first chord played, Jelly Roll stood up and began to cry.
21:00And this cat, Bear Bailey, got out there and just sang his soul and took us to church, man.
21:08And I told him he changed me from a sinner to a saint, you know, in a matter of two
21:13minutes.
21:13And it was just like that.
21:16So if you guys can go back and watch this show on Netflix right now just to see what happened
21:21on Wednesday night.
21:22You won't be able to vote, but you can see what happened.
21:24But, yeah, we are making stars on this show.
21:26And what's important, the great thing about it, the people get to vote on who's going to be the stars.
21:32Absolutely.
21:32So that's what's fascinating about this.
21:34I'm so happy.
21:35I want to show a clip.
21:36Here's Anthony Anderson and the new Star Search.
21:39Take a look.
21:40We call this Hide and Seek.
22:02I want to go my way.
22:05I want to go my way.
22:06I got this.
22:07I got to know.
22:22So it's everything, comedy, magic, comedy, magic, variety acts, errorless, musical groups,
22:28dance artists, it's everything. There are eight concentrations. So on Tuesday nights,
22:33we have four categories, and then on Wednesday nights, we have another four categories. And
22:37then we rinse and repeat the following week. Let's do it. Let's make some stars. Let's do it.
22:41Come on. I appreciate you. Thank you, bro. Always the best. Anthony Anderson, everybody.
22:45Star Search airs live on Netflix Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 9 p.m. We're talking with
22:51Louie Tomlinson after the break. Stick around. Come on back.
22:58Three.
23:18Our next guest is a multi-platinum artist whose brand new album, How Did I Get Here,
23:25just came out at midnight. Please welcome Louie Tomlinson.
23:52We got to feel the love. Louie, good to see you, my friend. Thanks for having me, bro.
23:57Uh, congratulations.
23:58Oh, this is a very close quarters interview, isn't it?
24:00Yeah, we're very, we're tight, we're tight, we're tight.
24:02But we've got to talk about this.
24:03We have one album in between us.
24:04This is your new record.
24:05How did I get here?
24:06It is out officially.
24:08Officially, it is available.
24:11How does it feel to have a record
24:13that you've been working so hard on,
24:14just it's finally out,
24:15now people can get it and listen to it?
24:17A real sense of relief for it.
24:19I've been sitting on it for a while now,
24:21so, you know, there's a lot of anticipation,
24:24a lot of tension.
24:24Yeah.
24:25But a lot of excitement, too.
24:26So, yeah, I feel really relieved
24:27to finally have it out there.
24:28It's out. It's here. Here we go.
24:34Uh, first, you released your first album,
24:37uh, 15 years ago, I guess, 1D.
24:40Yeah, making me feel like.
24:41One Direction.
24:42No!
24:43You're a baby.
24:44I mean, but, I mean, is it different now,
24:46putting out your solo stuff,
24:47and, like, do you feel like you're in the right position,
24:50the right place to release?
24:51Do you know what?
24:52Like, every moment,
24:53every memory that I have of One Direction
24:55is incredibly special, obviously,
24:57but that experience,
24:58it was relevant, but somewhat.
25:00Like, you know, being in a band
25:02and doing things collectively
25:03and sharing the pressure,
25:04it's a very different version
25:06of the same thing, really.
25:08Um, so, of course, I got, you know,
25:09of course, I definitely feel like the experience
25:11has helped me,
25:12but it's taken a bit of navigating
25:14out of my own, to be honest,
25:15but, um, this is the record
25:17where I really, I feel really comfortable with it,
25:20and I felt really comfortable making it.
25:22I really enjoyed the process.
25:22I'm even enjoying the promo,
25:24which is a new thing for me.
25:26Yeah.
25:26Yeah, I'm feeling really good about it.
25:28I appreciate you coming on for this, yeah.
25:30I'm coming on this.
25:31No, you have to come on.
25:31I'll reach you.
25:32I'll reach you.
25:33Damn it, you gotta do it.
25:35When you were releasing this,
25:36you were putting out little Easter eggs,
25:37by the way, I saw on, like, social media
25:40and different stuff.
25:40You did it in these reviews for Lemonade,
25:45the first, by the way,
25:46number one, not too shabby.
25:47Congratulations.
25:50But in these reviews,
25:52you were doing these little clues
25:53that were highlighted in the reviews.
25:55What are these, and where do they come from,
25:58and how did you think of this?
25:59Well, I'm lucky enough to have a fan base
26:01that love the finer details
26:03and love the kind of, you know,
26:05the Easter egg hunt and that whole thing.
26:07Yeah.
26:07And also, for me, you know,
26:08I'm trying to imagine what it's like to be a fan
26:10and trying to just create as much excitement around it.
26:12And fun.
26:13And fun, but also,
26:14the other beautiful thing is
26:15they have to work together for these kind of things.
26:17So this was, like, different reviews,
26:18and I think it was, um,
26:20with what three words.
26:22So those three words are actually, like,
26:23coordinates of a specific place,
26:25which is where we had the billboard that eventually,
26:27across different places,
26:28where the billboard spelt out the album name.
26:30Yeah, here you go.
26:31Here's one I made earlier.
26:32Berlin, London, Mexico City, Milan.
26:36So did anyone figure this out?
26:38Yeah.
26:38There was a couple of things that took a little bit longer.
26:42Um, but, um,
26:44is that funny?
26:45I don't know.
26:46But, um, but, uh,
26:47but, uh, no, I was, uh,
26:48I was pretty happy with it.
26:49It's good watching people scramble for that stuff.
26:51And another thing that was cool about it was, uh,
26:53Taylor Swift's fans seemed to get a bit confused.
26:55I think they were thinking it was somehow,
26:57anyone remember this?
26:58Somehow it was related to, uh, her album.
27:00So I got, like, free promo for a couple of days.
27:02I was loving it.
27:03Yeah, why not?
27:04Loving it.
27:05Why not?
27:06Who knows?
27:07I don't know.
27:09Hey, by the way,
27:10I want to mention you've finally joined TikTok.
27:12That's what I'm talking about.
27:14No, dude, it's great.
27:16It's great.
27:17We're all loving it and enjoying it.
27:18It's another job, isn't it?
27:20It's, you know, it's not that.
27:21It's just for, for, for a while.
27:23It's, it's an ever-growing list.
27:24You know, these, these new social media things.
27:28It's exactly comments like that that made me get on TikTok.
27:31I felt like it made me feel a bit old.
27:33You know, like being that kind of guy who was just like,
27:35you know, TikTok.
27:36But that is just so cliche, cynical.
27:42Yeah, it is.
27:4330-year-old, you know.
27:44So I, I, I thought it was time.
27:47I thought it made me cooler not being on it.
27:49But, uh, no, it doesn't, no, it doesn't.
27:52No, no, no.
27:53I thought it did.
27:54But in reality, it doesn't really equate to that.
27:56No, we, fans want to hear from you.
27:57They want to play.
27:58But, listen, I've got like three or four other social medias, mate.
28:01Just check it out on there.
28:02No, we need more.
28:03We need more.
28:03We need more.
28:04We want to.
28:04Oh, you're good.
28:06We want to squeeze the lemon till we get that lemonade.
28:09And Louie, come on.
28:10We want it all.
28:13Uh, how did I get here?
28:15Uh, you're also announcing your North American tour dates just came out.
28:19I mean, this is a World Arena tour.
28:20Yeah.
28:20This is crazy.
28:21How did we get here is the name of the tour, uh, which is awesome.
28:25I mean, because...
28:28It was important.
28:29It was important.
28:30The name of the record was important for me to have something that had, like, real scale
28:33and it was kind of thought-provoking.
28:35And then it's always really important for me that, um, that we share our success together,
28:40me and the fans.
28:41Because it's a cliche thing to say, an obvious thing to say.
28:43But, you know, I wouldn't be playing those rooms without them.
28:46I wouldn't be sat in this chair without them.
28:47So how did we get here?
28:49It's a kind of...
28:50I expect to be in those big, amazing spaces and kind of us all looking around in a little
28:54bit of disbelief and a little bit of awe, too.
28:57Do you still feel that magic when you look in the crowd and someone's singing the song?
29:02Absolutely.
29:03I really needed the last two tours that I did.
29:07It's, you know, it's quite intimidating.
29:09Leaving a band like One Direction and going out on your own.
29:11Like, that is...
29:12It's not for the faint-hearted.
29:14Definitely not.
29:14No?
29:14And I really needed the confidence that I built up during the tour.
29:19And that's all thanks to the fans.
29:20It's all thanks to those amazing live moments that I share with them.
29:23And, uh, it's vital to what I do.
29:25It really is.
29:27Like, I wouldn't...
29:27I definitely wouldn't have made this record without that touring experience.
29:30It leaves me no room, really, for self-doubt.
29:33You know, every single night doing what I'm doing and getting great reaction from the crowd, etc.
29:38Oh, you earned it.
29:40You're one of the best.
29:41You deserve it, bud.
29:42Come on.
29:42You're the best.
29:42That's so good.
29:44And you're going to play for us tonight.
29:46Oh, yeah.
29:47That's what I'm talking about.
29:49Louie Tomlinson, How Did I Get Here, is officially out now.
29:52And Louie is performing for us later in the show.
29:55More Tonight Show after the break.
29:57Stick around, everybody.
30:16You know our next guest as Holly Wheeler in Stranger Things.
30:21All episodes of season five are streaming now on Netflix.
30:27Please welcome Nell Fisher.
30:49Nell Fisher, I am honored to meet Holly the Heroic right here.
30:53Right in front of me.
30:54Come on.
30:55You crushed it, bud.
30:57Thank you so much.
30:58Well, funny you speak of Holly the Heroic because we have for you, Jimmy the Joyful.
31:05Wait, no.
31:08Wow.
31:10That is fantastic.
31:12Who is this?
31:13That's Jimmy the Joyful.
31:14He's your little Holly the Heroic.
31:17You're the best.
31:18Can I put it on?
31:18Can it fit over?
31:19I don't know.
31:21I have a big head.
31:22I don't want to break it.
31:23Wait, I think it.
31:23There we go.
31:24Yay!
31:26I love it.
31:28I love this so much.
31:29Thank you for doing this.
31:30I appreciate this.
31:32I want to get into everything.
31:34I want to talk about Stranger Things.
31:36But first, I heard a rumor that you're missing school for this show.
31:41Yeah, no, so I am missing more school.
31:46Obviously, like, in 2024, I was filming all year, so I wasn't at school for, like, the
31:51whole time.
31:52Yeah.
31:52But no, my school has been amazing at, like, sending me work and, yeah.
31:56Are your teachers fans of Stranger Things?
31:58Yeah, so, I mean, they, I think some of them are.
32:01They couldn't, like, outright say it.
32:03But I had one teacher, and she was like, Nell, meet me after class.
32:07And I was like, I'm, like, a massive goody-two-shoes.
32:10I was like, oh, God, what have I done?
32:13And she goes, so I saw the Stranger Things.
32:18You're pretty good.
32:21And then she just, like, sends me off on my way.
32:23She's right.
32:25She's right.
32:26You are pretty good.
32:29How was it like with the other kids on this set?
32:31Did you guys all bond and, like, you did?
32:33What'd you do?
32:34Well, so, Jake and I, you had him on.
32:36You love him.
32:37He's the best.
32:38He's the best.
32:39We would, because we had to do, like, loads of schooling.
32:42We had to do, like, three hours a day, and sometimes we'd do more.
32:46And we had a habit of playing Bananagrams and calling it English class,
32:51which, obviously.
32:52Yeah, that counts.
32:53It counts.
32:54I love Bananagrams.
32:54Yeah.
32:55It's the best.
32:55You played Bananagram?
32:56Oh, it got heated.
32:57Ooh.
32:58It got heated.
32:59It got heated.
32:59I love that.
33:00You also brought us a photo, and I don't really know what to say,
33:03about this, but it's a little creepy.
33:04Can you explain what it is?
33:05Yeah, so, in, like, the pain tree, which is where all the kids are kept in the abyss,
33:12we had these dummies, and they were, like, exact replicas of us with, like, plastic faces,
33:19and they would, like, put up into our little cocoons, and, I mean, it was wild, because I
33:25didn't know that they were being made.
33:26Well, that's where it...
33:27So, I, like, came into set one day, and I saw this, like, short version of myself just,
33:33like, staring back at me.
33:35I mean, it was demonic.
33:36That's creepy.
33:37Yeah, yeah, that's creepy.
33:38Yeah, yeah, yeah.
33:38That's wild.
33:39I know that you and the cast did a lot of, kind of, dancing on set, and they taught you
33:46dances?
33:46Like, with Millie Bobby Brown?
33:47Yeah, so, in episode eight, Millie and some of the other kids, we all choreographed a dance
33:53together to Please, Please, Please by Sabrina Carpenter.
33:58And, I was thinking, you and I are going to do it now.
34:04Yeah!
34:06Really?
34:07Yes!
34:08I will try.
34:09Okay.
34:11I'm not known for my dancing.
34:13Okay, so, we start, and we go, please.
34:16Okay, I got that.
34:17And then, in, please.
34:20Please.
34:21Oh, like that?
34:23Don't prove, slice.
34:24Here's where I get lost.
34:26I'm.
34:28Yep, right, we do a full 360.
34:31Okay.
34:32Click.
34:33Click.
34:34Up, up, step, clap.
34:38Okay, and then, please.
34:40There's more?
34:41Yeah!
34:41Oh, my God.
34:43Please.
34:44Oh, more.
34:44Please.
34:45Please?
34:45Please.
34:46Oh, my God.
34:46Come on.
34:47You need to get into it.
34:48I'm so lost.
34:49I know the song, Sabrina Carpenter, is a great song.
34:51Please.
34:51Please.
34:52Please.
34:52Please.
34:52Please.
34:53And we're crying.
34:54Don't bring me to tears.
34:56Uh-huh.
34:56When I just did my makeup so nice.
35:00Do I do it to you?
35:01No.
35:02Oh, do it to me.
35:03Okay.
35:04Should we go?
35:04Let's try.
35:05Here we go.
35:05Should we go?
35:08Ready?
35:08Ready?
35:08One, two, three.
35:28I want to see a clip.
35:30Here's your picture in season five of Stranger Things.
35:33Take a look.
35:36Mom!
35:37Mom!
35:38There was something in the end.
35:40Oh, my God!
35:41There was something in the end.
35:41Baby, baby, what are you doing to me?
35:43What's wrong?
35:44Mom, there's a monster.
35:45There's a monster.
35:47I can't understand you.
35:48There's a monster.
35:49There's a monster.
35:49I can't understand you.
35:49Mom, whatever you saw, baby, it's just a nightmare.
35:53No, Mom!
35:54Mom!
35:54Baby, it's just a nightmare.
35:56Mom, please trust me.
35:59Mom, please.
35:59Please, Mom, please.
36:00You've got to believe me.
36:08Come on.
36:09That's how you do it.
36:11Nell Fischer, everybody.
36:12All seasons of Stranger Things are streaming now on Netflix.
36:16We'll be right back with a performance from Louie Tomlinson.
36:19Stick around.
36:34Performing Impostor from his new album, How Did I Get Here, once again, Louie Tomlinson!
36:41Applause
36:54You're out, but never showed.
36:57Never felt like this.
37:02Trying to build walls to you.
37:05It feels like falling, kicking, soaring
37:12I'm so normal, you that hurts
37:16I'm so afraid that I let you stay in
37:20You'll see more than I deserve
37:23I think there's a stranger in my head
37:28My heart's beating faster
37:32I can't get this feeling in my head
37:35That I am the imposter
37:40Is it really happening?
37:44I don't want to wake up
37:46I can't get this feeling in my head
37:52That I am the imposter
37:58Second guessing, proper paranoia now
38:06Sweat tripping, terrified you'll find me out
38:12Feels like falling, kicking, soaring
38:16I'm so normal, you that hurts
38:20I'm so afraid that I let you stay in
