You have a TV show TV show isn't it crazy mind-blowing mind-blowing It is a cool thing. Thank you. I was I'm just really excited that you in particular have a TV show you because you you know My memory sort of still works, and you were one of the people who was really nice to me when I wasn't anything to sneeze about Not that I am now more so but you just remember the people who are all thank you well It was I how old were you into that to know was that first time. I was I think I was 18 gotcha and God you just you kind of keep a log in your brain of people who were cool to you and legitimately cool Not like one eye on me and one eye scanning for someone better right talk to I will say if I could get my eyes To look two places at once that would be awesome. I was I mean you wouldn't I can't deny those people the use of their superpower You I remember when you hosted SNL You did something that is the rarest of things writing the monologue for the host is the hardest part of the show Because you have to write it in the host voice, and it has to be something comfortable with and you You know you were this very young person. You're really confident You came up to Lauren's office, and you said I wrote a monologue. Can I play it for you guys? And I can't it was so awesome was that like a fun thing for you to do it was it was fun And it was terrifying because you were in there there were probably about five different very important decision makers with SNL and I walked in and I had this kind of song that I played and I Could not believe it when Lauren said yes, and when you guys all looked at each other. Yeah, it was great The other thing is my nightmare is someone with a guitar saying hey Can I sit in a really close space with you and play a song I know I understand I know I'm gonna play it. I'm like oh my god. I'm gonna jump out the window. I'm gonna jump out the window And then you started playing and I started thinking oh my god. This is so great now I don't have to write a monologue. She did it. She did it. She did it. It was so exciting That's this you haven't done a ton of acting. I assume you get offered a ton of roles What made you do the giver was it a book you read it was a book I read as a kid and I remember it really impacted the way that I thought about the world so tip and for me Getting approached with this kind of package deal of would you like to play a very small role? Where you get to spend a week in Cape Town and your co-stars are Jeff Bridges Meryl Streep Katie Holmes like would you be cool with that? Yeah, it's pretty. It's pretty big. No-brainer. Yeah, yeah Now you live in in New York I do which is so exciting to have you here But you do something in New York City that I know you've been getting some attention for this and I want you to explain it You go to the gym, which is great. Yeah, but then you come out of the gym This is a photo of you coming out of the gym This didn't happen once Taylor. This is you coming out another day What is going on? How will tell me how this works? That is how everyone looks when they come out of the gym. No, they do not. Yes. I Like to bring a change of clothes, okay. Yeah, I get it Just like a change of clothes. Yeah, I bring a hairbrush with me. I picture you in the locker room taking up a lot of space I don't I really don't because my hair is short now and it's a lot easier to just gotcha You just brush it also, you know, I think New York is one of those cities that feels it feels worth dressing up for yes I'm saying yes, like I dress up Yeah, I I just kind of I don't know I just feel like when I walk out onto the sidewalk in New York I have to I have to just try a little harder, but it's not it's not like an extra hour at the gym Okay, I read that somewhere and I was like, that's ridiculous. Well, I always leave the gym in a tux, but I work out in a tux So it's less for me then. Everybody looks like that at the gym. Yes and coming to and fro from the gym You have to really dress up
