You know, I wanna start up by congratulating you.
You're 18 years old, you co-star in a movie
with Bill Murray, and you're just getting amazing reviews.
Things could not get better. You must be thrilled.
Yeah. It's great. Everybody's been very positive about it.
So we're thrilled. We're very happy.
And then I find out, and just today that someone
pointed this out to me that your first real paying
acting job was on this show, which I hadn't even
realized. This is, this is, (Scarlett laughing)
I told you that.
It was one of the producers came
up to me and he said it was 10 years ago.
And then he, he showed me the tape and you came on as,
as a little girl and did a sketch
on our show. That's right.
And I think they just have a still from it anyway,
because we were just looking at this today.
Oh God. (audience laughing)
That's back when I was a little girl too,
apparently.
(audience laughing)
I was.
You were like an eight year old girl,
I was like a 21 year old girl.
Hi folks, how are you? (Scarlett laughs)
But I watched the sketch and you were great.
You nailed, you were very poised, and I'm realizing now
I should have grabbed onto your coattails then.
Yeah it was, yeah, it was very embarrassing,
piece of acting to look back on it now.
But I remember, you know
this big redheaded man,
and you know, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, this big redheaded man-
It sounds like you're talking to the police.
(audience laughs)
He was this big redheaded man.
(Conan growling) (Scarlett laughing)
And I remember Andy after the show, you know, he was just
thrilled that I was his biggest fan at the time,
and gave this, you know, signed picture and I still have it.
And it's, you know.
He carried those around with him back then.
Apparently. Yeah. (audience laughs)
Yeah.
That, that is so cool though. I just looked back
on that and I thought, wow, this is, this is amazing.
And now in this movie, you play someone who runs into,
it takes place in Japan.
And you run into Bill Murray who is playing
a big American star who's gone over there
to shoot a commercial in Japan,
which a lot of big American stars do.
Yes, that's true.
Actually. I mean, I think we actually got it.
I think Sophia had seen, you know, Kevin Costner in a
you know, I don't know, a tampon commercial or something.
Well, that's a terrible image,
but you know, I mean (audience laughing)
everybody does, you know, I, everybody,
Kevin Costner is selling tampons in Japan?
Well, you know. (audience laughs)
Yeah. Somebody has to.
Right. Right. Somebody's gotta do it,
and Costner was like, I'll do it.
What. (audience laughs)
It's such a weird, but it's true is that, you know
movie stars go, I mean, Charlie, you did that.
And, right?
Yes I did.
Yeah.
I sold air conditioners and- (audience laughs)
This was door to door actually.
Absolutely. Yeah.
Yes,
and shoes.
Shoes, really?
Yes, and cigarettes.
And the appeal over there is that
actors get self-conscious but I don't wanna
be in a commercial but if you do it over there,
no one will see.
Right. Nobody ever sees it except for, you know.
Other actors looking to make a big buck, I guess, you know?
So it's, those are the only people that ever go.
What? (audience laughing)
So when you were over there, Charlie, you like,
if you were over there, you'll see Charlie's
you know, air conditioning commercial,
and he'll see Costner's tampon commercial.
We just don't say, you know
and nobody wants to say anything.
So they just keep it hush, hush, you know?
Right, right.
Well, that's cool, and now we've blown the lid
off this whole thing.
Yeah. (audience laughs)
You know, you mentioned Sofia.
This is Sofia Coppola who directed this movie.
Mm-hmm.
And I'm wondering if it is more comfortable
for you to be directed by a woman,
than it is to be directed by a man.
Is there a difference there?
Are there, are there ways
in which it's easier if a woman's directing you?
Well you know, I mean, it makes,
I guess it makes a difference.
I mean, it depends,
it depends on the person really, but,
Right.
I mean, certain scenarios, like my,
the opening shot of the film is my, you know,
my beautiful backside in sheer pink underwear.
And I was very sort of nervous.
(audience clapping and cheering)
Thank you. Thank you.
Yeah, there are a lot of film buffs
turned out here tonight. (audience laughing)
I was, (Scarlett laughing)
I was really,
We love cinema. (Conan clapping)
Yay. (Scarlett laughing)
I was really nervous about doing it.
So, you know, Sophia said, oh, well,
I said, I don't wanna wear the underwear.
And she said, fine, I'll try the underwear on.
And if you still, you know, if you can't stand it,
then of course you don't have to do it.
And you know,
that was kind of nice as opposed to, you know, I don't know
Bob Redford putting on sheer pink underwear, which is
Trust me, it's not worth it.
You know. (audience laughing)
It's not an image you wanna see.
No, but it seems to me like it would be, yeah,
because there's a level of trust there.
And a lot of times it's the guy,
it's a male telling a woman,
I want you to get into this underwear, and do this, you know
be in this vulnerable position.
But if it's a woman doing it,
it just, there might be more trust
or something. Yeah or it's not just trust,
but you know, Sofia is soft and she smells nice.
And she was, you know, in the pink underwear,
and it was alright.
It was fine. All right, okay.
All right. Right.
I'm liking it now. (audience laughs)
We have a, (audience laughs)
You paint a great
picture here. Yeah. (Scarlett laughs)
