What A Merry Cherry

I fucking hate cherries. But, MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! And happy go-to-the-movies day for everyone else, hopefully you decided to go see Nightwing or maybe American Hustle or Anchorman 2...all good choices. I still haven't seen American Hustle yet but I have watched Anchorman 2 and boy is it amazing, Kristen Wiig is a beautiful mess and Paul Rudd makes me so uncomfortable that it's hilarious. And of course Will Ferrell is a comic God among men.

I got so many wonderful things for Christmas this year, I always feel weird receiving so many gifts, it's like my friends are trying to make up for the first 20 years of my life or something. I finally gave Nasim this gift I've been working on since June, a cross-stitch pattern of two wolves on a snowy bank. So ridiculous. I got a lot of clothes, more cross-stitch patterns, socks, tights, scarfs, I got that new J.J. Abrams book (really more like 2 books), an umbrella, a LOT of make-up, money, gum, scratch-offs, head phones, and stuff for my new apartment (oven mitts, hand towels, bath mats, shower curtain, more picture frames (yes!!), kitchen scrubbie thing). I'm sure there's more but I can't think of it right now. One thing that I did get was a cross-stitch pattern on pillow cases, so I'm basically making my own sheets now, CALL ME MARTHA STEWART.

Does anyone else listen to classical music while looking at pictures or reading? I love it, and if I may recommend a song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNFL4Mz2ISY or anything by David Lanz (cristofori's dream, nightfall) all amazing to listen to. The link up there reminds me of when I used to play Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time at a friend's house. Anywho, Merry Christmas from Bradley and I both, hope everyone is warm and happy!

Oh, and go get that pussy oN THE CHAAAINNN WAAAXXX!!!!!11

Idiocracy

So I'm a fucking idiot, I thought this was Seth's last show, he still has like 3 or 4 more...Jesus. But, HOW GREAT WAS THAT EPISODE? Everyone thought Justin wasn't going to be in a lot of sketches and then we just WHIP OUT like...4! Rock on motherfuckas. I got a lot of questions asking why I wasn't in the "Baby It's Cold Outside" sketch, first of all: Cecily is awesome, second, I had to be in the closing musical number which required a whole costume change, so, yeah. And just because it's a romantic scene doesn't mean I HAVE to be in it, come on peeps.


Hahahaha, how amazing is this ^, I found it on tumblr under #jimmyfallon, so, that's pretty rad. But that was the last show of 2013! What a crazy year...really, I've been getting this blog back up to standard and now the year is almost over, new boyfriend, movie finished and I'm nominated for a Golden Globe?! A really fantastic year, I'd like to thank Breaking Bad for making me cry, Bill Hader for being fucking awesome, and the crazy love duo of Kristen Wiig and Fred Armisen for making me laugh always. Jason you're cool too. Yeaaaaaaaaah!

How fucking cool was that musical number though...there was a lot of singing in this episode! I'm glad I wasn't goofy singing though like Aidy did in the cold open, but it was fun to perform with Justin Timberlake. I can only imagine what it was like for Jimmy to sing with Sir Paul McCartney. Anywho, amazing episode, and have a great week everyone! I'll be in New York with Bradley, no more Jackass boys, and Christmas is right around the corner!

Merry everything <3

Jack AYas-a.k.a Christmas Party 2013

Got my boy Johnny Knoxville IN THE HOUUUUSEEE! I've been crafting and wrapping like a motherfucker all day and I just wanted to hang out with Johnny to chill and relax. Then after that I think I'm going to hang out with Nasim, Vanessa, and Amy but I'm not sure.

I love hanging out with the Jackass crew. I don't know what they are all filming but they're filming something. After Ryan Dunn died I really didn't think Jackass would present anything else, but I guess once Bad Grandpa came out it was green light to everything else. So of course they're in New York, where no one wants to deal with any pranks and bitterness lies in everyone's soul. A lot of the Jackass boys are on clearance for 30 Rock to enter (everyone who lives in 30 Rock has a list of people that can come and go as they please [only to the floor where the 30 Rockian resides however]) So ALL Jackass boys come to 30 Rock and are stopped by the front desk (Bam Margera, Johnny Knoxville, Wee-Man, Chris Pontius, Steve-O, Dave England, Ehren McGhehey, Preston Lacy, Spike Jonze, Jeff Tremaine, and Rick Kosick), however I only have security passes for Johnny, Bam, and Chris so those three idiots went up to the SNL stage where I was practicing with Justin Timberlake and those 3 walk in laughing like hyenas at a mock serious part in JT and my bit and I swear I coulda punched them. Once the song was finished I yelled "Fuck you guys!" and jumped off the stage and punched them all.

JOHNNY 
I'm sorry, I lost it at the come over here part.
BAM
(giving CHRISTINA a hug) Oh come on you know we love you.
CHRISTINA
(grumbles) Yeah, yeah.
JOHNNY
Come on, all the boys are down stairs.
CHRISTINA
What! Why?
CHRIS
(laughs maniacally) You'll see.
CHRISTINA
(turns to director) Don, am I done for today?
DON
Yeah, just remember the Christmas Party is tonight!
CHRISTINA
I know, see you then!
DON
Don't break any bones or have any cuts please!
BAM
Can't promise anything.
DON
Christina!
CHRISTINA
I'LL BE FINE! BYE!

So we went downstairs and I got to meet the other Jackasses, who looked so disheveled and tired, and we all went into two vans and went to a warehouse. At this point I was mashed in between Bam and Ehren, and Ehren who kept asking me if he had a good enough "terrorist accent" to be a featured player on SNL. For those who don't know, Ehren has one of his two front teeth missing so it's no easy to look at him in the face. I guess the other guys have gotten used to it, I, however, was quite terrified. Arm-in-arm with Bam I whispered in his eye "what the fuck happened to his teeth", and he laughed loudly and whispered "rape" in my ear. Ha ha, lord.

So this warehouse, which I think is in New Jersey because we drove for a long time, was filled with gifts. Like an abnormal amount of gifts, there must have been like 3000 gifts or something. And the reason why I was brought in was because this summer when I was with the Magera's for a week I wrapped some presents for Don Vito's birthday with April (Bam's mom) and Bam remembered that and now I'm literally wrapping like a madwoman for homeless kids to have presents this Christmas. So, to the kids who receive my awesome wrapping jobs, you're welcome, and merry Christmas.

During this, of course, is just a mess of pranks and hurting people. Steve-O and Chris tape wee-man to a chair and run him through the warehouse and smash him into a wall, Ehren walks on two tubes of wrapping paper (so that he looks like he's on stilts) and falls onto Jeff...I mean these guys are just nuts. 

After that I have to head back to 30 Rock to get ready for the Christmas party, which is basically just setting up the bar and tables because we have a whole crew for decorating. After 3 hours of them putting everything up it looked amazing. Everyone in the world (practically) was there, not a lot of my friends though, a lot of NBC people rather. No All-American Rejects or Whitest Kids, but all of the upper level shows in 30 Rock so I'm pumped either way. It was a lot of fun, Chris Pontius showed us party boy and everyone loved it, we had food catered from Panera Bread and omg am I stuffed! I decided to call it a night around 1AM after the scavenger hunt. Johnny, Chris, Bam, Wee-man, and Steve-O all tried to sleep with me in my bed but I crawled out and slept on the couch until 2AM when Bradley came in and kicked them all off the bed. T'was a good night indeed.

Drunker Uncle

If you didn't catch John Goodman on SNL, then you missed out on some awesomeness (go to hulu.com!), but if you're not gonna watch this week's episode with Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake then you DEFINITELY live under a rock and don't even have hulu. That episode is gonna be pretty baller, I'm even in one of the musical numbers :O

These past two weeks have been a little crazy, Bradley's been away (just got back 2 nights ago) so I've been fully emerged into my new movie with table reads and bonding with Ryan Gosling and Tom Hiddleston. Tom and I have been locked away in this bunker trying to get to know each other, and it's been a great experience actually. Tom's SUCH a nice guy, really, it's a little creepy how nice he is and how much he knows about Shakespeare. At the table read Ryan and I refer to him only as nerd. Ha ha, but I really like Tom, he's a nice guy and I super excited to get to work with him.

BRADLEY IS HOME! I was hanging out listening to music and watching videos of planes landing and star constellations gifs with Jason Segal and Paul Rudd when Bradley came home, Jason fell asleep by the point (7PM).So yeah, Big B is home and is staying until sometime in January when he'll have to go to Hawaii I believe. This week is going to be a little hectic with Seth's last show being this Saturday :( I'm super sad about that, he was the best and I'm gonna miss him around the SNL floor. But then again, Late Night is only a floor away so that's nice! Jimmy's leaving though...that's a little sad, but now when I visit California I can see two Jimmys!

Look at dis face

Game Time

Just this past Friday I came home to a new movie, I'm working on an untitled project with Chris Nolan, Liam Neeson, Ryan Gosling, and Tom Hiddleston. It's very exciting, we did a table read for 4 hours on Friday and then after I did my last UCB show for 2013! Very exciting indeed. Unfortunately, Bradley couldn't make it since he's been working like a madman doing American Hustle interviews and filming with Cameron Crowe and Rachel McAdams and Emma Stone.

The Ellen DeGeneres Show-Nightwing Interview

Yesterday I was on The Ellen DeGeneres Show for an interview about Nightwing! It was so much fun, I've never been on Ellen before but she was so sweet, first words out of her mouth were "Jimmy Kimmel adores you by the way", and then went on a rant about all the sweet things Jimmy has said about me. I love that man. Ellen is so funny, I mean I knew she's funny and is a comedian but she is so fucking HILARIOUS! Thank you again for having me on your show.

Also yesterday, I had an interview with Jill Simonian, this one was more tailored to the comic book fans out there, so check it out if you've got time. I'm currently waiting to go on to The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, so we'll get to that later. And thanks for all the page views people, this blog is really going up, stats wise.

Till then <3

Jimmy Kimmel Live!-Nightwing Interview

KIMMEL
Our first guest just starred in her first feature film Nightwing and is one of the funniest people I've met, ladies and gentlemen, Emmy award winning actress Christina Essenelle! (CHRISTINA comes out and waves to the crowd smiling, KIMMEL gets up and hugs her quickly and then sits back down)
CHRISTINA
(sweeping her hair back) Woo! I made it. (he laughs and there's a pause between them) What? You look like you're gonna throw-up!
KIMMEL
(laughs) It's weird, you've been here all day and now we have to be all professional.
CHRISTINA
Ha ha, I know. No more tom-foolery.
KIMMEL
I just want to thank you again for inviting me to your premiere-
CHRISTINA
Oh of course!
KIMMEL
And Guillermo and his whole family. Wasn't that nice of her Guillermo?
GUILLERMO
Yes, thank you Miss Christina!
CHRISTINA
Anytime. 
KIMMEL
I mean that was such a crazy event, I went there thinking, oh yeah I'm gonna hang out with Christina and watch a movie and then drink after (CHRISTINA laughs shaking her head) But you were all over the place, shaking hands, and taking pictures...what was that like?
CHRISTINA
It was pretty surreal, yeah that's why I made sure we were sitting next to each other when they showed the movie cause I knew I wouldn't see you otherwise. I felt so bad for Bradley, he was hanging around Jeremy Renner for most of the event because I was just running around like a madwoman.
KIMMEL
Yeah it was insane! But Christina, (takes her wrist) this movie was amazing. I'm so proud of you, really.(she laughs and the audience cheers) Have any of you seen it? (the audience cheers and CHRISTINA immediately perks up)
CHRISTINA
Really? Oh wow, then yeah let's have a chat about it.
KIMMEL
Oh now you want to?
CHRISTINA
Well this is like one of the first interviews I've done since the premiere so yeah, let's discuss the movie.
KIMMEL
I know you pretty well-
CHRISTINA
Very well I'd say.
KIMMEL
Right. And I could see glimpses of you in your Barbara Gordon, your character, was that what you wanted?
CHRISTINA
Yeah I wanted her to be as real as possible for a comic book hero, it was like Barbara was basically me, and then Batgirl was everything I wanted to be.
KIMMEL
Was it hard to channel that super heroine within you?
CHRISTINA
Haha, well you know I'm just so used to being an evil demon that pretending to be good was very hard for me (the audience laughs) No, I mean, it's easy to play the hero, but I tried to add some light to the hero, make her vulnerable, you know?
KIMMEL
Well, without giving anything away, Batgirl does have a very dark ending...
CHRISTINA
Well and even then there's light in it. I'm not gonna give away then ending but, well, yeah I really shouldn't say anything. (the audience laughs) Yeah, see they understand. (to the audience) It's so good, right? (the audience cheers even louder with some wolf whistles)
KIMMEL
(laughing) You can't just ask the audience if they liked the ending!
CHRISTINA
But they love me Jimmy. (the audience yells and claps again and some guy yells I LOVE YOU CHRISTINA and she laughs loudly) What'd I say?
KIMMEL
Speaking of people loving you, even though I battle him for ratings...the Friday before Thanksgiving Late Night with Jimmy Fallon had it's highest ratings.
CHRISTINA
I know, people are obsessed with him now that he's moving to The Tonight Show.
KIMMEL
What, no, because of you! You sang like a regular Broadway actress!
CHRISTINA
Oh, well thank you. Jimmy's actually-
FALLON
(JIMMY FALLON comes out of the curtain and points at JIMMY KIMMEL) J'accuse!
KIMMEL
Speak of the handsome devil...what're you doing here Fallon!
FALLON
Christina, you betrayed me! I thought you chose me as your favorite Jimmy!
CHRISTINA
Oh boy, Jimmy Fallon, I love you but I'm just weirdly closer to Jimmy Kimmel! Besides, you have a guest on your show that you love very much too!
FALLON
Who?
JUSTIN
(JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE pops his head out of the curtain) Jimmy come back, why'd you leave? (the audience screams and laughs)
FALLON
(eyes glaring at CHRISTINA and KIMMEL) Oh.
KIMMEL
Well, this was fun but Christina and I, who have a better bond than you and Justin do, have to finish our interview-
FALLON
You think you and Christina have a better bond than Justin and I? We've known each other for years! I challenge the two of you!
CHRISTINA
To what?
JUSTIN
Newlywed Game!
FALLON
(giving JUSTIN a funny look) No we changed the name, remember? The Host-Guest Game. Come on Justin!
KIMMMEL
We accept, ladies and gentlemen we'll be right back so Christina and I can show up Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake
~commercial break~
KIMMEL
Okay, so how this works is Guillermo will ask a question to the not Jimmys of the group, they will write down their answers and then once all the answers are written down we'll find out what the Jimmys would have said.
FALLON
Seems easy enough.
KIMMEL
I swear if we don't win...there'll be hell to pay.
CHRISTINA
Damn son. (everyone laughs)
KIMMEL
Alright, let's get started. Guillermo what's the first question?
GUILLERMO
Ok, ok, question number 1, (FALLON starts laughing and the audience does as well)
CHRISTINA
Come on Fallon, this ain't an SNL sketch! (the audience ooos)
FALLON
Right, cause if it was you'd be making out with Kimmel! (the audience oos louder and CHRISTINA and FALLON laugh and snap their fingers at one another)
JUSTIN
We really want to win.
KIMMEL
(laughs) Clearly. Ok, Guillermo the question.
GUILLERMO 
Justin and Christina, where did Jimmy grow up? (CHRISTINA rolls her eyes and writes her answer down, JUSTIN looks at FALLON for a second with confusion and then writes down his answer)
CHRISTINA
Wait, is this where they grew up or where they were born?
GUILLERMO
Where did Jimmy grow up. 
CHRISTINA
Ok. (the audience laughs)
GUILLERMO 
Next question! 
KIMMEL
Wait! Are they finished?
GUILLERMO
Oh. Are you finished?
JUSTIN AND CHRISTINA
(laugh) Yes.
GUILLERMO
Question two! Where did Jimmy go to college?
KIMMEL
(her mouth is momentarily agape) You know this!
CHRISTINA
Do I? (she laughs and writes something down) We'll see about that.
JUSTIN
Well looks like I've got this one in the bag.
CHRISTINA
What!
GUILLERMO
Finished? (no response) Ok, question 3, what nationality is Jimmy.
FALLON
(JUSTIN and CHRISTINA immediately write down their answers) Apparently this is an easy question. (everyone laughs)
GUILLERMO
Last question! How would Jimmy describe himself in bed, a tender lover, all-night party, or a slug. (everyone laughs loudly)
CHRISTINA
Ha ha, oh man. 
JUSTIN
(JUSTIN looks at FALLON, pondering the options and then puts his marker on the board saying) Of course. (the audience laughs)
KIMMEL
(pointing to FALLON and JUSTIN) Hey hide your answers cheaters!
FALLON
(shaking a fist) KIMMEL!! (the audience laughs)
GUILLERMO
Ok, now Jimmy's you will answer questions about Justin and Christina.
FALLON
YEAH!
KIMMEL
YOU'RE GOING DOWN FALLON!
FALLON
LIKE YOUR RATINGS! (the audience oos again and CHRISTINA laughs and puts up her arms to hold KIMMEL back)
CHRISTINA
Guys...we all love each other here. (they make faces at each other)
GUILLERMO
Jimmys, question 1, what's the weirdest thing Christina and Justin collect? (everyone laughs and both JIMMYs silently write down their answers) Next, what is Justin and Christina's favorite type of liquor? (both JIMMYs laugh) Why is it so easy?
KIMMEL
I don't think there's been an occasion where Christina and I don't drink together.
FALLON
Same. 
GUILLERMO
Okay, next question, where were Justin and Christina born?
FALLON
(laughs) You're dead in the water Kimmel.
KIMMEL
Like hell.
GUILLERMO
Last question, which would Justin and Christina prefer, sex with the lights on, sex on a plane, or sex tied down to a bed?(JUSTIN and CHRISTINA give GUILLERMO a look that is just plain horror and then they both laugh, the audience is in fits of laughter)
CHRISTINA
Think about it Jimmy.
KIMMEL
I mean...I hope you're thinking what I'm thinking.
FALLON
What kind of show are you running here Kimmel?
KIMMEL
The sexiest one on air! (the audience is still laughing from the question) Ok, so now the Jimmys give the answers to the first questions and then Justin and Christina will reveal those answers. So Guillermo, repeat the first questions.
GUILLERMO
Ok, Mr. Fallon, where did you grow up?
FALLON
I grew up in Saugerties, New York. (JUSTIN laughs first and then reveals his card and it reads SOMEWHERE NEAR ALBANY, NEW YORK. The audience laughs) That's technically correct.
KIMMEL
Eh...we'll give you a point.
GUILLERMO
Okay, Mr. Kimmel, where did you grow up?
KIMMEL
Well, that would be in the wonderful land of Las Vegas, Nevada.
CHRISTINA
YES! (she excitedly reveals her card to show it says LAS VEGAS, NEVADA)
KIMMEL
IN YOUR FACE! (FALLON waves a hand in his faces and then CHRISTINA and JUSTIN deposit the used cards into a little bin in front of their podiums)
GUILLERMO
Next question, Mr. Fallon, where did you go to college?
FALLON
If you don't get this I'm ashamed to know you, but, I went to the College of Saint Rose in Albany, New York.
JUSTIN
Buddy, I almost went to your reunion (he reveals the car which says COLLEGE OF ST. ROSE) how could I forget? (the audience cheers and JUSTIN and FALLON hug and the raise their hands to KIMMEL and CHRISTINA as to intimidate them)
GUILLERMO
Mr. Kimmel, where did you go to college?
KIMMEL
Well, I can only imagine Christina got this wrong because I went to two colleges and didn't graduate from either so, (places a hand on CHRISTINA's shoulder) it's okay if you got this wrong but I went to University of Nevada and then went to Arizona State.
CHRISTINA
(sighs) I knew you never got a bachelor's degree, but thank the lord (she reveals her card to say ARIZONA STATE AND U OF NEVADA IN LAS VEGAS) I pay attention to your drunken rants (the audience cheers loudly and the teams are tied)
GUILLERMO
Next, Mr. Fallon, what nationality are you?
FALLON
Irish!
JUSTIN
Easy (his card says IRISH and has little bottles of liquor drawn in on the sides, the audience laughs)
GUILLERMO
Mr. Kimmel?
KIMMEL
German and Irish.
CHRISTINA
(CHRISTINA revealed her card to say IRISH AND GERMAN) And I only remembered this because he told me he was a nazi alcoholic and that he should be sent to jail once (everyone laughs, especially KIMMEL)
KIMMEL
That's right!
GUILLERMO
Last question-
FALLON
I'm excited for this one (KIMMEL laughs)
GUILLERMO
Mr. Fallon are you a slug, a tender lover, or a all-night party?
FALLON
Well I'd like to think Justin put tender lover down, but since I'm a late night talk show host and Justin and I party together...I'm gonna say all-night party.
JUSTIN
(JUSTIN reveals his card which says TENDER LOVER) No...! You're such a good lover man. (the audience laughs and CHRISTINA and KIMMEL high five and dance in their podium)
FALLON
Alright, let's see what Essenelle put!
GUILLERMO
Mr. Kimmel?
KIMMEL
Oh I'm definitely a slug.
CHRISTINA
SLUG!!! (her card says SLUG BUG and there's a picture of a snail at the bottom of the card and KIMMEL and CHRISTINA get up and chest bump each other, the audience laughs and cheers)
GUILLERMO
Ok, Mr. Justin, (JUSTIN laughs) what is the weirdest thing you collect?
JUSTIN
Well I actually collect a lot of things, but I think the weirdest one would be my sneaker collection(with a big grin on his face he reveals his card which says GYM SHOES)
CHRISTINA
Gym shoes? What other shoes would he wear to the gym other than sneakers? (the audience laughs and FALLON puts up a hand)
FALLON
None of your sass Miss Essenelle.
GUILLERMO
Miss Christina, what's the weirdest thing you collect?
CHRISTINA
Well I only really collect one thing and that's beer tabs, I want to make a lamp out of all my beer tabs.
KIMMEL
Oh no! (he reveals his card to show PINS) I forgot you did that, aaagghhh!!
CHRISTINA
NO! Agh, well I also have a weird pin collection. (the audience laughs)
FALLON
LOOKS LIKE WE'RE TIED AGAIN! (JUSTIN and FALLON make faces at KIMMEL and CHRISTINA and they do the same back to them)
GUILLERMO
Last three questions! Mr. Justin, what's your favorite type of liquor?
JUSTIN
I would stop being your friend if you didn't get this, tequila.
FALLON
(reveals his card to say TEQUILA) You started your own brand of tequila, I assumed you liked it.
GUILLERMO
Christina?
CHRISTINA
Oh, vodka. Definitely vodka.
KIMMEL
(with a smirk on his face he flips over his card that says VODKA and he and CHRISTINA high five without looking at each other, the audience cheers)
GUILLERMO
Mr. Justin where were you born?
JUSTIN
Memphis, Tennessee! (the audience cheers and cheers even louder when FALLON gets the question right)
GUILLERMO
And Miss Christina where were you born?
CHRISTINA
Well, despite it being somewhat a mystery, I'm going to deduce I was born in New York City. (the audience laughs and then cheers when KIMMEL also gets it right)
GUILLERMO
Ok, this one for all the marble.
KIMMEL
All the marble in the world. (everyone laughs)
GUILLERMO
Ok, Mr. Justin, which do you prefer, sex with the lights on, sex on a plane, or sex tied down to a bed?
JUSTIN
You know I don't know...I've never had sex on a plane so I guess I'd say that one.
FALLON
What! (FALLON shows his card and it says SEXY SEX WITH THE LIGHTS ON) So you could see Jessica better.
JUSTIN
(he puts his head down and laughs) Oh my God.
CHRISTINA
(shaking KIMMEL) IF WE GET THIS RIGHT WE WIN. JIMMY I SWEAR..!!
GUILLERMO
Ok, ok, ok, Miss Christina, sex with lights on, sex on a plane, or sex tied down to a bed.
CHRISTINA
(CHRISTINA bites her lip and looks at KIMMEL to see if they're on the same mindset) I really hope you got this right, I can't lose to Jimmy Fallon.
FALLON
SAY IT!
CHRISTINA
Sex...tied down to a bed. (KIMMEL hugs CHRISTINA and then shows his card to the camera and it says KINKY SEX TIED TO A BED. Once CHRISTINA reads it she screams and jumps up and down and the band starts playing) IN YOUR FACE!
KIMMEL
To be fair, Christina and I practically lived together last summer.
FALLON
Yeah, yeah. (they all laugh and hug and KIMMEL signs off for the night)

Conan-Nightwing Interview

CONAN
My first guest will forever be known for her fantastic performance on SNL but also as the strong and sexy heroine in the new Nightwing film, ladies and gentlemen, Christina Essenelle!
CHRISTINA
(she walks out waving to a cheering crowd, she's wearing a tall romper and as CONAN gets up to greet her she holds out her arms and yells CONAN! and they run to each other and hug, as always, they whisper something to each other and then sit down) Wow you look nice, is that a tux?
CONAN
What? No, just something a little nicer for my favorite new movie star! (the audience applauds and cheers as CONAN points to CHRISTINA) Seriously, thanks again for inviting me to your premiere it was an incredible experience.
CHRISTINA
Oh of course! We've known each other for so long you were on the top of my list.
CONAN
Oh well that's very nice of you, but you were phenomenal in Nightwing (the audience cheers again) I barely talked to you at the after party because everyone was just mobbing you, but sincerely, it was one of the best performances I've seen.
CHRISTINA
Stop, my face is red enough just from being here...it's all a bit much isn't it?
CONAN
I was gonna say, is it getting to you? The pressure?
CHRISTINA
Oh God, I've had the pressure from day 1! For SNL, Lorne came up to me and was like "1 season, you get one season and then you're out if you aren't America's sweetheart" and Chris Nolan, director of Nightwing, said the same! He said "we'll train you, but you have a month of filming to prove to me you can do this", and I guess I did. (the audience applauds)
CONAN
You certainly did, and just so the audience kind of knows what I'm talking about, we have a clip here. (a clip is shown to the audience and they cheer once it is finished) Miss Essenelle, I think you need a new last name...Miss Batgirl?
CHRISTINA
(both CHRISTINA and the audience laugh) Yeah ok.
CONAN
How did you stunt double do with all the gymnastics and fighting scenes? This is your first time using one I assume-
CHRISTINA
Stunt double?
CONAN
Yeah the person who did all your stunts.
CHRISTINA
(she laughs) I didn't have a stunt double, I did everything. I told you I trained for like 3 months before ANY filming started.
CONAN
You did those back-flips and cartwheels on the balance beam? 
CHRISTINA
Yeah! I could do them now if you wanted me to... (she looks at the audience and they cheer loudly for her to do gymnastics)
CONAN
They seem to want you to, but they have no idea the ridiculous obstacle course we've given you.
CHRISTINA
I don't even know what it is.
CONAN
(he looks at her seriously) Wait you don't?
CHRISTINA
Yeah I thought it'd be more fun as a surprise for me.
CONAN
Christina we have-okay. BRING OUT THE BEAST! (the curtains open and out comes this giant moving set piece that almost looks like a miniature golf course, there's a ring of literal fire, a dragon's head that has a big red mattress for a mouth, a balance beam with streamers on the sides, and small trampoline at the beginning of the course) So you sure you're ready for the BEAST!? (the audience cheers again)
CHRISTINA
(she is obviously taken aback) Didn't know there was going to be a ring of fire but...I can do it.
CONAN
(she stands up) Now you sure you want to do this in this little get up? (CHRISTINA looks at him and laughs and then rips off her tear-away romper to show a leotard that connects to her ankles, the audience and CONAN applaud)
CHRISTINA
LET'S DO THIS! (CONAN claps and encourages the audience to do so and they also chant GO CHRISTINA GO! she survey the course and then goes to the trampoline to begin. She backs up a few feet and then runs toward the trampoline and then does a cartwheel into a jump and jumps on the trampoline with just her hands and pushes off and lands on the balance beam with both her feet down and spread out, she does not waver and the audience applauds. She then does a cartwheel into a backhand spring and lands again on the balance beam, CONAN shouts out wow! and the audience still chants GO CHRISTINA GO! she then goes to the end of the beam that's closest to the trampoline and does a cartwheel into a  into a small back-flip and then does a round-off off the beam and lands on her feet. The audience applauds and cheers as she jumps onto the next trampoline and dives through the ring of fire and lands on the next trampoline with both hands and pushes off into the dragon's mouth and onto the bed)
CONAN
INCREDIBLE!
CHRISTINA
(CONAN runs over to CHRISTINA and helps her out of the dragon, she is out of breath and is waving to the audience)
CONAN
Christina, what in the world, can't you do?
CHRISTINA
I can't do my own hair. (he laughs and then wraps an arm around her shoulder)
CONAN
Nightwing is out in theaters everywhere, Christina Essenelle ladies and gentlemen!
