-Our first guest tonight is an Oscar and Golden Globe winning actor whom you know from many excellent films. Starting a week from Friday, she plays a queen more evil than Latifa could ever imagine in the new movie "Snow White and the Huntsmen"--say hello to Charlize Theron!
JK: How are you?
CL:Wow!
JK:You know, I always feel like Danny DeVito when you walk out. You look great, thank you for coming. How's everything?
CL: Everything is good, yeah. I'm a little tired, I've been traveling and promoting this film.
JK: And you have a new baby, too.
CL: And I have, yes, that on top of it all. Life is so hard!
JK: Yeah! Now how does it work when you're traveling and promoting new movie? Does your new baby come along with you?
CL: Yeah, it's just...it's too long, I can't be away from him for that long. So, um, I mean...going through the adoption process I knew when I was gonna have him come into my life...so before I even had him I had to start figuring out how to get a passport for him, because I knew this tour was gonna happen for the film.
JK: Wow! So he has a passport already?
CL: He has his...yes, he has a passport.
JK: That's kind of...and is there a little baby picture on the (laughs)....
CL: There's a little...it looks like this...it's like...And he, I mean, babies change every day!
JK:Yeah
CL: And so...that baby doesn't exist anymore. It looks like my baby now ate that baby. (Laughs). So we came through customs in L.A. and the agent took his passport and held it next to his face, and looked at me like I was smuggling another child in! It was like...
JK: That's weird, it's not like he was trying to get into a bar or something!
CL: And you know this passport...I know!...this passport is valid for five years so yeah I can't imagine...
JK: Yeah, so when he's four will you--maybe you have to switch the picture or something.
CL: I'm going to teach him to do that pose, so that when we go through customs he just does the pose.
JK: You know what, he'll be five years old and wearing a Onesie just so he can get to another country!
CL: Exactly!
JK: Well, that's interesting, I never really thought about the fact that, yeah, babies have to have passports too.
CL: I think it's since 9/11--before that they could travel on the parent's passport, yeah.
JK: Now do you like goin' and doin' that stuff.. Is it.. I can't even imagine doing interviews in another country because... It's hard enough to do them in the United States, or in Afric.. wherever, y'know, wherever you're from. But, to do it in like another language 'n [and] with another culture. Is'at [is that] uh... challenging?
CT: Yeah, yeah, the… y'know, the, the, the toughest thing is a lot of them you have to put this little earpiece in and... the.. somebody’ s translating for you.
JK: Right.
CT: There's a delay and there's a translation and it's a live audience and people are clap… Kristen and I had to do this show in Madrid.
JK: Kristen Stewart?
CT: Kristen Stewart. Yes. I'm like... you guys know Kristen. Kristen Stewart, who plays Snow white in the film, we did a show together in Madrid and um when we got there… They were trying to backstage… kinda explain the show to us. And the guy just kept.. He was just trying to be very energetic and he was like "Just go crazee! like y'know just do whatever." And I was like, "OK but like, what's your demographic, like. Is this for kids?" and he's like "Everybody!!". And I was like, ha, ha, "OK." So when walked on it was a little nutty and then everytime…
JK: Did you(?) go crazy? How do you go crazy?
CT: We were We were… I was trying my best to please everybody, so I kinda karate chopped my way through, which Kristen... Kristen was just like "Crazy, who are you and what are you doing?" And then when we sat down for some reason everything that we answered they would play sexy music. And I was like... So then I thought that's the demographic. The guy didn't know how to tell me it's an older demographic. And then...the pull out this chemistry set table. And I'm like, what is.. and I'm thinking this is a joke, like they're gonna make a joke. And this guy just does like pure, like, sixth grade.. Chemistry. He’s like.. I mean literally… straight forward… “look at the liquid - clear!” “look at the liquid - green”! And I’m like, “That’s it?” And I was like. Oh that’s for the kids. I was so confused.
JK: Maybe they were teaching the kids how to make roofies to capture women like you? Possible. Can’t be a wholesome reason
CT: See. I need you to explain these.... I was very confused.
JK: If you just had the thing with me in your ear everything would be fine.
CT: At one point Kristen just dropped to the floor, and tried to hide her head. And I was like. I was like. I shoulda done that. I was like “Where are you?” And she was like on the floor like this.
JK: The ostrich theory of doing interviews, I guess.
CT: Exactly.
