-Watching yourself
is so painful. This is a punishment. ♪♪ -Nearly a third of Americans are more stressed out this year
than last holiday season. -I love that fun fact.
-Here to comment
is Rich Auntie With No Kids. [ Cheers and applause ]
Whoo! Okay, so Kate was the host,
and we're like, "It's gonna be hard to get
something on because, you know, the OG,
the legend is coming back." So "Update's" a hot spot
to try to, you know, get some real estate. -I love me some Christmas,
Michael. I am too ble
ss-ed
to be stress-ed. -She's very cocky. This --
She's annoying, but, like, fun. You kind of like hate her
but you love her. I want to be her, though.
I felt that after doing it. Like, after being at the desk,
I was like, "I want to be her." -If he ven looks like he about
to finish, I push his ass up off me, like, "Unh-unh, not up in here.
Do that mess outside." -I wrote it with Asha Ward, Gary Richardson,
and Alex English. I texted them when we found out we
were getting to do it on Friday. I w
as like,
"What look do we want?" Because Jodi in hair department
was texting me and was like, "What do you want
this character to look like?" And Asha sends back
a picture of Kris Jenner dressed exactly like this
with martini and everything. I sent it to Tom in wardrobe
and he was like, "What?" And he's like, I think that's a really old
Dolce and Gabbana set. So he, like,
found the fabric somewhere and like it was enough of
it was printed -- it's crazy. And then she had a different
purse at dres
s rehearsal, and they were switching out my
purse, and I was like, "Why?" He's like,
"The other one looks cheap." And I was like, I love
that everyone is so committed to making this woman live up to
her name -- Rich Auntie. They're like magicians. I say that all the time,
and I really mean it. -Well, speaking of your family, have you ever thought about
hosting them for the holidays? -Hell no.
I ain't hosting nobody. What I look like, Ryan Seacrest? -She was so fun to do.
And she was born of impr
ov! A draft was written,
and then I was like, I think we need to just, like,
sit together and play around. "I'm cutting up"
came from improv. -I am cutting up!
Ha ha ha! -I feel like
when you're on "Update" you do get more room
to improvise because it's not -- the same way shots are arranged
in a sketch is not the same as they are in "Update." In "Update"
it's pretty much like two shots. You could actually go on
"Update" and say whatever. It's kind of crazy that
no one just like goes rogue. Mayb
e I will this week. I want her to come back,
but I don't know when, for what. Mother's Day?
Yes, that makes sense. Maybe she's hooking up
with the Easter Bunny.
