  Speaker 2: Okay, on days like we're having right now in the

  Speaker 2: holiday season, when calories don't count. What's your dream Starbucks order?
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Oh my god? So okay, oh god, get it, get
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: it all that you want. Okay. I'm much more of
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: a salty person than a sweet. But if I'm going
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: to do it, I would do some sort of salted caramel,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: like I would do frozen. I like an ice beverage.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: I don't care. You know that movie Alive when it's
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: like so cold they're eating each other. I'd still ask
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: for a prappuccino there, Like I like a cold beverage,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: So I would. I would do some sort of salted
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: caramel something, just where they do the kramel on the
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: side of the cup on the inside so you see it. Yeah,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: I would do that.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Oh, and then you get to scrape the edges with
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the straw and get it all out.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: I would put it on the ground and lick it
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: into a corner like a dog.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Bold Oh, so you can really get some leverage. Yeah,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: I like that favorite teacher. What was it that they
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: taught you or how do they make you feel?
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: I had great teachers. Kathy Clark Smith was a She
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: was actually a like a substitute teacher. She was like
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: a student teacher, but later in life she went to
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: school to become one. And she thought I was fabulous
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: at a time when I could have easily gone the
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: other way. And I remember like she would ask me
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: my opinion on things, which I thought was interesting. And
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: then when I was like the lead of the school play.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Of course you probably know, there's still Tony buzz for
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: my performance as Henry Higgins and my Fair Lady, and
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: she showed up in a like a thrist store ball
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: gown to watch me perform, and I just felt like
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I was the most popular boy in school.
• 3:49

• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Are you watching? Wait?

  Speaker 3: just here visiting. And when I was in high school,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: like later in high school and wanted to go to college,
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: I mean, we had no money, and he bought me
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: a ticket to go to a visit to the college,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: you know, to like go there and meet with them.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: And that's how I got all these scholarships. And it
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: was because he bought me probably a two hundred dollar
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: ticket from Seattle to la that that happened, and you
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: think about like just a little gesture like that, and
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: twohunjo is not nothing, but it's something we couldn't have afforded.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: And the fact that he did that and that twohund
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: dollars impact in my life so much is I don't know.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: It's just indicative of how large even little impacts it
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: little gestures can be on people's lives. So Uncle John
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: and Antil, A lot.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Of celebrities have come through your life, whether on red
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: carpets or on the couch on the show. Who was
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: one person that wore something so amazing that you've never
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: forgotten it?
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: Who wore something?
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, who wore something that like you were like a gasp?
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: I can you know? Miley Cyrus sat next to me.

  Speaker 3: I love her. She sat next to me on drag
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: Race And have you done You've done drag Race? Right? Yeah?
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: So you know there it's like kind of a long day.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: You're there for maybe eight ten hours. It's just long,
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: so you get to really converse. And she was wearing
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: a dress that had it was made out of records
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: and it would looked so imagine sitting in a dress
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: made out of records for right, yeah, and it was
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: so like and she was had to be so uncomfortable
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: it's cold in there, and she just didn't complain. And
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: I remember reading all the record it was made from
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: real records, all the records that they were, and so
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: I was like, one, it was Miley, and then two
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: I wanted to look at the dress and read it,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: and I was concerned about her, but it almost looked
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: like pervy that I was like looking so hard at her.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: So it was like this constant battle not to freak
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: out Miley Cyrus. But on that show in particular, people
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: wear looks that are instantly I from the queens to
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: the guests, and so that I think that's one of them.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: It should be on the Smithsonian.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she's got some crazy good style. Okay, it is
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: the holidays. I need some I need one more recipe.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I need a sweet one. Now.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I know you like savory, but give me a sweet one.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Okay, okay, but it's still going to be salty. So okay, Okay,
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: this is not it's a Rossby in essence about trying
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: to crack the coat and make them healthy. This isn't healthy.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: So but I'm going to give you how raw seats dessert.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: There's this place called Quality Italian on fifty eighth and
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: six that I love in New York. It's a great
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: restaurant and they do this like as everyone else is
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: getting cheesecake and all this stuff, They'll bring me just
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: a scoop of really great vanilla ice cream drizzle with
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: a little olive oil and then big chunky flakes of
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: sea salt on top of it. That is per because
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: it's not overly sweet. There's that you know, salt, What
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: it does to a sweet thing. It's so good. That's
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: what I would do.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love salting sweet things.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Ross.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Oh my god.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Have you ever had watermelon with salt? Or like a
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: blood orange with salt on it?
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: That's how my dad used to eat it. He would
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: cut it and have to just pour salt on it
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: and then like scoop it out.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, me too, It's weird.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Do you ever dip a French friend in that ice
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: cream with olive oil?
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Now there's a line, Jenny Garth, I'm not going to
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: CRUs it. Okay, did you ever get a frosty? I
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: understand it, Yes I have. I don't like that. I
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: like fries and ketchup okay, or tartar sauce. I would do.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: I love a tartar sauce. That's an underrated You're.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Really not a sweet guy.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: No, I mean you are a sweet eye.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: But yeah, what's one thing you learned from j leno?
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, show up on time? Be nice. Everyone gets home
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: to dinner on time. That's good professionalism. Perhaps exactly Okay,
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: same question for Drew. That's one thing, if you could
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: narrow it down to one thing. Drew teaches me so much.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: Drew's We're very different, very different. I'm much more I'm
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: much more structured, I think, and or maybe I am.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: She's magic. She talks about the camera. She literally calls
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: the camera a butterfly net that captures life's moments. That's
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: how she thinks of like a film camera or the
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: camera in the studio, and that's how she approaches the show.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: If you think about it, when you were shooting the show,
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: she doesn't know where camera one is or camera two,
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: and she doesn't care. I know where camera one is
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: and camera two is and what camera I'm on and
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: who's cutting to next, Like I'm very hyper aware of
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: that stuff, and she just wants this authentic thing that's captured,
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: and that's her approach to everything. There's nothing that's not authentic.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: I could fake it. I can like smile through some
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: pain and get to commercial break and then go cry
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: in a corner and come back and get back to work.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: She's not that, and I'm so envious of that, Like,
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: why do I put that pressure on myself that I
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: have to be that when what really people are seeking
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: out is authenticity and Drew is is just authentic through
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: and through, and that is not only something I envy,
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: but something I am working to emulate.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, what is.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: One funny on air red carpet oopsies that you can
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: laugh about? Now?
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, I called Dame Elizabeth t Taylor day Medna once
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: on accident. Oh no, they told me to call her
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: Dame Elizabeth, and I was in my head, I was like, oh,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: like day Medna. And then I walked in and there
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: was a dog barking, and I didn't know I was
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: going to interview her. There's like thirty seconds I had
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: to prep you know, like literally, they said, oh, come here,
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Elizabeth Taylor, and I told you I wouldn't be interviewing her,
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: which made more sense like I shouldn't. And then they said,
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: like Dame Elizabeth, like Dame Edna. So I walked in,
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: she was like not what I sured? It was different,
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: and it just came I go, Dame Edna, it's a
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: bit Taylor like that.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Did she notice?
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, we all did. And then what I love
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: about myself is that rather than like edit that out
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: for the tonight show, I aired it, paused it and
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: did a voice or that said I just called her
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: Dame Edna. Listened back, and then we played it back
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: in slow motion so good, just to embarrass myself further,
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: but you know it, Dame ed No that I wish
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: I could have met her now because she loved gay men.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: I know a lot of men who like Martin Lawrence
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Billard is a friend of mine. He's this brilliant designer
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: and he knew her and like would hang like they
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: knew each other, and she was fabulous, And I just
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: feel like I would have loved her and she would
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: have loved me for reals if I could have been
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: my real self.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, okay named her up eminems are skittles, yes, okay, good, good,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: that's it. You've passed all the name drop tests.

• 12:09
  Speaker 3: you know. Thank you for saving that for me.
