00:45for such a series.
00:45How was it working with her and how was it to see her get the success for this show?
00:48Well, Sophia's been talking about Griselda literally for 10 years.
00:52Like she would come into the makeup trailer talking about the show.
00:54And so the fact that it finally happened and then it was so good and then she was so
00:58incredible in it and now she's nominated for an Emmy and I'm going to be sitting behind her

01:04Being the biggest cheerleader?

01:07If you think for a split second I did not vote for Sophia, you're sadly mistaken.
01:12There was a lot of really incredible people on that list, but I was like, how can I not?
01:15How can I not?
01:16She's incredible.
01:17And then what are you watching right now that you're excited to come back?

01:22I love Abbott Elementary.
01:24I'm a big fan of RuPaul's Drag Race.
01:26I see a lot of drag queens on this carpet and I'm very excited.
01:28They killed it, by the way.
01:29They just slayed it.
01:29Oh, of course they did.
01:30They know what they're doing.
01:32They're not screwing around.
01:35I'm also a big Survivor fan, so always happy for a new season of Survivor.
01:40And lastly, if you could work with any musician on a television project, who would it be?
