  • I saw you at the premiere the other night for a simple favor.

  • So, you, your husband Ryan, we love Ryan Reynolds.

  • We love Ryan Reynolds.

  • -♪♪♪♪

  • So, you guys are out there, and you're wearing a gorgeous outfit, and I want to show a picture of the outfit that you're wearing.

  • It's actually a men's suit, believe it or not.

  • Is that real? Yeah.

  • It is.

  • But what nobody really realizes, see the look of horror on my face?

  • Like, I'm trying to, like, look like, you know, like have a J-Lo face, but I'm also kind of like this because I didn't realize it was see-through, the shirt.

  • So, that's not a look that I was going for because it's a men's shirt.

  • I didn't know they made, like, see-through.

  • Wait, so you didn't realize this is a see-through shirt?

  • No, so I'm in my hotel.

  • That's a men's suit.

  • Yeah, but with the flash, it goes see-through, and I'm in my hotel, and I call, and I say, hey, can I have, like, the mechanical department?

  • And they said, what do you need?

  • I said, I need duct tape, quick.

  • And they were like, is there a pipe broken?

  • And I was like, no, no, no.

  • Yeah, yeah, yeah.

  • And they were like, we have packing tape.

  • I'm like, that's see-through, so I'm just gonna walk around, like, crunchy-sounding.

  • Oh, my gosh, packing tape.

  • I was like, I was just so worried because, like, I'm wearing this thing, and then when I open my arms to put my arms around people, it just is like, you know.

  • Okay, okay, yeah, okay, interesting, yeah.

  • And you know when you're, like, freaking out about something, and you know that that's all anyone else is seeing.

  • You're like, you know, you're aware of it, so everything everyone says is, like, you know, pointing out this thing that you're paranoid about that no one's really noticing.

  • Yeah, of course, yeah.

  • So, I'm on the red carpet, and then this guy goes,

  • Blake, Blake, your tits are amazing!

  • Wait, what?

  • Right? And I was like, wait, what?

  • Excuse me?

  • And he was like, your tits are amazing!

  • And I was like, are we saying that?

  • Like, is this, like, have you been on Google in the past year?

  • Like, this is not okay.

  • You don't talk like that, no.

  • And the woman's, like, next to him goes, well, I mean, they are.

  • And I was like, well, thank you.

  • But, and he's like, and your husband's tits are even better!

  • And I was like, oh, tweets.

  • Oh, tweets, oh, my God.

  • My tweets, my tweets are amazing.

  • I don't know how to react to everything.

  • Your tweets are amazing.

  • Your tits are amazing, yeah.

  • Tweets, oh, okay, much better, yeah.

  • It was like, oh, my gosh.

  • And then I was like, I was so relieved that it was about my mind, and then after, I was like, well, like, how are my, like, how are they?

  • Yeah, enough about my tweets, yeah.

  • Who cares about what's in a woman's head?

  • How are my, you know.

  • Let's talk about the movie,

  • A Simple Favor.

  • This is Paul Feig.

  • This guy directed Bridesmaids.

  • I mean, super funny guy.

  • Is that what made you do the movie?

  • Well, yeah, I mean, I found out

  • Paul Feig was doing another movie, and I said, yes, I want to do it.

  • He didn't even want me to do it at this point.

  • But I was, like, just tracking him down, and then I read, finally got to read the script, and the script was a thriller.

  • So that was a little confusing to me because he's, like, such a funny director.

  • Yeah.

  • And so I said, you know, what is this?

  • Because the script is definitely, like, a twisting, turning, intense thriller.

  • Is it a comedy or a thriller?

  • And he said, yes.

  • So then every day on set,

  • I was like, is today a comedy or is it a thriller?

  • And it's a good mix of both.

  • Yeah, it's, like, really kind of over-the-top and campy and trashy and fun and, like, you know, kind of like my outfit, I guess.

  • No, it's, like, I'd say, like,

  • Gone Girl kind of mixed in with, like, a good, like...

  • With Dynasty.

  • Dynasty.

  • But really funny.

  • Yeah, it was funny.

  • You're so funny in the movie.

  • Oh, thank you.

  • I was at the wardrobe.

  • It's always great, your wardrobe.

  • But in this movie, on top of it, is beautiful.

  • But then it's real.

  • There's so many twists.

  • Well, explain what the film's about, if you can.

  • So the film is about two unlikely friends.

  • One is a mommy blogger, and another is a woman who works in New York City, who's my character.

  • And they become friends, and one day my character asks the other mommy, Anna Kendrick, to pick her kid up at school, and then she goes missing.

  • She completely disappears.

  • So what happens?

  • So the simple thing is, hey, can you watch my kid?

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah, I'll watch your kid, and then you leave forever.

  • Which is, like, probably what I'm going to do to you one day.

  • You're like, wait, what?

  • I don't know.

  • I mean, I was like, wait, okay.

  • If there's vacations I'd like to go on,

  • I can drop my kid off to you.

  • But that's where you go, oh, well, that's it.

  • So then she has to raise the kid, and that's what the movie's about.

  • Yeah, and then...

  • Or maybe not.

  • Lots of twists and turns.

  • Lots of twists and turns, because maybe, I don't know, maybe you come back.

  • I don't know.

  • Maybe I come back.

  • But maybe you don't.

  • Maybe I don't.

  • I don't know.

  • If it's flashback, I don't know what's happening.

  • Is she dead?

  • Is she alive?

  • I don't know if she's alive.

  • I don't want to spoil anything.

  • How are her tweets?

  • How are her...

  • Teeth?

  • She has amazing tweets.

  • It's super good.

  • It's super funny.

  • I want to show everyone a clip here.

  • Here's Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick in A Simple Favor.

  • Take a look at this.

  • Okay.

  • A little bit of vermouth.

  • Swirl it around.

  • Dump.

  • Don't you dare touch that washcloth.

  • Then add in the gin.

  • Mmm.

  • Cut your twist.

  • Squeeze it.

  • Outside out.

  • Get a nice little mist.

  • Lick the edges.

  • Voila.

  • And don't add ice.

  • Ever.

  • We don't like ice anymore?

  • It ruins everything.

  • Tough day at work?

  • I just need to hit the reset button sometimes.

  • Oh, cheers.

  • Cheers.

  • Swirl it down.

  • Make me one of those?

  • That's how you do it right there!

  • Blake Lively, everybody!
