Late Night with Conan O'Brien - 10th August 2005 [transcript]

Big thanks to Amanda for typing this transcript up for Kate Hudson Heaven.



Kate: Hi Conan!!
Conan: How are you doing?
Kate: I'm good.
(Someone yells in the audience)
Conan: Settle down Sr! So much to talk about.
Kate: I know.
Conan: You look, you look lovely!
Kate: Thank you!
Conan: You look absolutely stunning.
Kate: Thanks! You look great too!
Conan: Thank you.
Kate: I love the tie. Pink is very fashionable.
Conan: Is it really?
Kate: Yeah! You know that hot pink.
Conan: I thought someone was having that joke on me. Who said 'put on this tie!' hehe! No, i really like it. It's all coming together. And you know i want to congratulate you, cause since the last time you were here, you had a baby! That's so exciting. Congratulations!
Kate: Yeah, so did you!
Conan: Yeah, I did as well. Yeah.
Kate: And strangely I actually bought a picture for you. Cause there was a moment there where i actually thought you and i had a weird drunken night out? (laughs) That i didn't know about.
Conan: Did the baby go through a Conan phase?
Kate: Well, the baby's got red hair and then... Yes he did go through a big Conan phase.
Conan: About how old was the baby when this happened?
Kate: About six and a half months when i started going 'Oh well, he looks kind of like... Conan!' (laughs)
Conan: (laughs)
[ON THE SCREEN THEY SHOW A PICTURE OF RYDER WITH RED HAIR COMBED LIKE CONAN'S]
(The Audience goes aw... and laughs, then applauds)
Conan: (laughs) That baby looks so much more like me than my baby!
(Audience laughs)
Kate: (laughs)
[THEY SHOW THE PICTURE AGAIN]
Conan: Remember when you and i were in the poetry section in Barnes and Noble? And it got a little crazy?
Kate: (laughing) Oh... I just thought that was so funny.
Conan: That's crazy, the hair and everything.
Kate: And i was gonna send it to you with a little note, but i spaced and i... and i didn't do that.
Conan: My wife would have freaked out. 'What have you been doing!?' Now... How are you liking being a mom?
Kate: Ah, i love it, it's so great. It's been so much fun, and...
Conan: Yeah.
Kate: And isn't yours, isn't yours around the same age?
Conan: Same age, yeah. About 21 months.
Kate: Yeah, so i think now it's just so much fun. I mean he's talking and running and communicating. It's just, it just gets better and better.
Conan: I love also all the little things that you start doing, that you never really pictured yourself doing. Like, like reading them stories, singing them lullabies. Did you guys, did you guys sing them, did you guys sing the baby lullabies?
Kate: Oh yeah, yeah. Well, yeah, I mean our lullabies are a little... They're not, they're not 'normal' lullabies.
Conan: What do you mean?
Kate: Well, he's from the south so...
Conan: Like 'go to sleep, go to sleep'...
Kate: No no. Well, no. It's like, you know, Chris is from Georgia. He's from Atlanta
Conan: Right.
Kate: So, you know he grew up on Country music. So, it's more like George Jones songs, and...
Conan: You're singing sort of like sad Country Western tunes?
Kate: Yeah, you know. I mean yeah, you know it happens. They have great lullaby, like... tone to them.
Conan: Sure. Yeah, yeah.
Kate: But they're just usually about like, you know, losing love
Conan: (laughs) That's a great thing for the baby to hear...
Kate: And drinking.
Conan: Righ, right. Right.
Kate: And some... Yeah, you know, old murder ballads.
Conan: Yeah, yeah. That's what the child hears, just before they go to sleep. "Ahh... and the man shot me, and now i'm dead...."
(Audience laughs)
Kate: (laughs)
Conan: "Night night! Click." I sing a lot of AC/DC to my child.
(Audience laughs)
Kate: Nice! (laughs)
Conan: (sings) " She was a fast machine, she gave my motor a grin!"
(Audience laughs)
"Best... that i've ever seen!" And the baby's all wired!
(Audience laughs)
Kate: No, but i mean, she'll grow up with a good music catalog.
Conan: Sure, it's good music, yeah. She'll know all about tragedy and sadness and drinkin'. Now, you know, it's hard. You made this movie that you're here to talk about. You made this film, you know, not long ago. And i think, so many people who haven't gone through the experience of having a child don't realize that you're still doing a lot, you know after the child's born.
Kate: Like breastfeeding!
Conan: Breastfeeding. And it must be difficult when you're shooting a movie...
Kate: Well, especially when your boobs are constantly getting huge and shrinking and, and then they fill up and the script supervisor's going "You know Kate, you probably should pump right now because we've been shooting the whole scene with your boobs really big."
(Audience laughs)
Conan: Right, right.
Kate: And you're going "Ok, ok ". All of the sudden your breasts become the topic of everybody's conversation.
Conan: Sure, yeah. I'm finding it fascinating discussing it right now.
(Audience laughs)
Yeah, we actually have a still from the movie. I think you didn't pump it up.
[THEY SHOW A PICTURE OF KATE WITH GIANT BREASTS ON THE SCREEN]
(Audience laughs)
Kate: Oh my god! (laughs)
Conan: Oh, it's distracting (laughs). For god's sake. Like 'cut'... You can have that.
(Audience laughs) That would look nice up on the fire place.
Kate: That's horrible!
Conan: Yeah, yeah. Sorry about that. You won't be back.
(Audience laughs)
Ah, no more Conan. Now, this is a, this is a, this is a scary movie.
Kate: Yeah, as you can see!
(Audience laughs)
Conan: (laughs) This is a, this is a thriller.
Kate: Yeah.
Conan: This film. So i'm curious, do you... You haven't made really that kind of movie before. So many of your movies have a different tone.
Kate: Yeah, they're happier.
Conan: Right.
Kate: And a... and funny.
Conan: Right, right.
Kate: And this isn't funny.
Conan: Right.
Kate: And it's not really that happy.
Conan: Right, right. Right.
Kate: But it was fun.
Conan: Yeah.
Kate: And it made me happy.
Conan: Sure.
(Audience laughs)
Kate: (laughs)
Conan: It came back all around again.
Kate: It does, you know, all comes full circle.
Conan: Do you yourself like, do you like to go see horror movies?
Kate: Not really. I like more supernatural, I don't like slasher films, they really sc... I like the ones that can make fun of themselves
Conan: Right.
Kate: Like, like a... Evil Dead, Sam Ramey.
Conan: That they have a sort of parody element to them?
Kate: Yeah, that you can laugh at it, and you know. But the ones that are real hardcore slasher movies, i just feel kind of bad when i leave them, you know?
Conan: Right.
Kate: It's like, that was... I don't know why i did that. (laughs)
Conan: Right, right. Did you ever see that Chucky movie? Have you ever seen Chucky?
Kate: (starts laughing pointing at Conan)
(Audience laughs)
Conan: I'm tired of that. I do not look like Chucky!
Kate: You do! (laughs)
(Audience applauds)
Conan: No, no. (laughs) I'm the leprechaun guy.
Kate: Wow, i didn't think about that.
Conan: Yeah, the leprechaun too. Yeah, if Chucky and the leprechaun had a child, that would be me.
(Audience laughs) The red hair 'That would be gold!' That would be me, yeah.
Kate: No, i mean for some reason... I mean if you were... A serial killer...? You'd be like Chucky.
Conan: (laughs) I'd be a tiny little doll. Yeah, thank you.
Kate: (laughs)
Conan: That's nice, that's nice. You're getting me back for the giant breast photo.
Kate: (laughs)
Conan: Now, how about sad movies, do you like yo see sad movies?
Kate: Well, everything's sad, i'm always crying, all the time. I mean, you know i cry at commercials... My brother was like... When we were little and we were watching 'Honey i shrunk the kids', remember that?
Conan: Yeah.
Kate: And there was like this scene of like an ant and an ant and a scorpion get in a fight and the ant dies
Conan: Right.
Kate: And it was their friend
Conan: Right.
Kate: And i was a mess. (laughs)
(Audience laughs)
Conan: That's something to say, like 'At what movie did you cry?', 'Honey i shrunk the kids.'
(Audience laughs)
Kate: (laughs) 'But it was their friend! It was their friend!'
Conan: 'They got so small!' Well, that's nice. I understand that.
Kate: Well, yeah. I.. You know, i'm emotional.
Conan: Right, right. It's a good thing, it's a good thing. It's working for you.
Kate: Yeah.
Conan: We have a clip from The Skeleton Key.
Kate: Ok.
Conan: What's gonna help us set up the clip?
Kate: I think this is the clip, well, i know this is the clip that a... When Gena Rowlands's character comes up to me. And i've done something that i should't have
Conan: Right.
Kate: And she confronts me about it.
Conan: Something you thought that was 'this is very innocent, no problem' and she flips out.
Kate: Right, right
Conan: Let's take a look at this clip from The Skeleton Key.
