- Hi, I'm Auli'i Cravalho.
- And I'm Damon J. Gillespie.
- We're here at MTV News
and we're going to answer some questions.
(light music)
- Like a tree I'm falling from the branches.
What are you doing alone up here?
- That was actually really good.
- Let's get started.
Ladies first?
- Alright, I see Moana on this one so I'm gonna choose it.
(laughs)
Who is your favorite Disney princess, other than Moana?
You can say Moana if it's true.
- God, what's, I can't even think of her name now.
- There's Tiana, there's Jasmine, there's Aurora.
- Oh Jasmine, Jasmine. - Jasmine?
- Yeah.
- Jasmine's a babe.
- She's like, I mean, but like she's strong.
- Heck yeah. She got a tiger. - She, like demands...
- She's got a tiger.
- She got a tiger.
- You know that, like, you mean business
if you have a tiger as a pet. - Right?
- Alright, your turn.
Have you ever had a bad audition
and how did you get through it?
- Why'd you have to choose that one? Okay, so...
- (laughs) I just chose them.
- I auditioned once for Rise which was, I thought I did bad,
and you just kinda gotta keep going.
And then I booked the TV show.
I'm not, I'm not a--
- I was about to say, this if you ever had a bad audition.
- So, do you wanna go?
Do you want me to read that to you?
- You wanna switch it up?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Do you want me to tell my awful story?
- Yeah, what's your awful story?
- I was in college and I was auditioning for The Lion King.
I literally walked in,
I was knee-deep in classes
- Okay
and had no time to literally go over the music
and halfway through the song, I just went
(breathy, exasperated sound) like just...
- You didn't!
- I, like, tried and even the casting director was like
♪ And I know, yes I know ♪
And I'm like, I clearly don't know this, dude, like...
Just a mess.
Had the lines down, lines were great.
- Good job. (claps)
- But the music, just... (dismissive exhaling)
- (chuckles) - I was out.
Alright, we're gonna do another one.
- Dang it!
- But I'm gonna do this one.
When was first time you saw yourself reflected on TV?
- I suppose the first time, I kinda saw myself,
I did see myself in Moana a lot. I grew up...
- You don't say. - Yeah! (laughing)
- Thanks Damon! I'm trying to be sentimental here!
(laughing)
- Um, so... - Okay
- Moana grows up on a small island, I did as well.
My 16th birthday was on November 22nd, a day before
the film was supposed to come out, and she's 16 in the film
and I was like (happy vocal sound) this is me.
And so I saw her as like a heroine and taking charge
of her own story and being awesome, so...
- So that's a good one. - Right?
What's your secret talent?
- I really like to, like, write music.
- Oh!
- I write a lot of stuff on piano.
- Really? - Mhhm (laughs)
- Damon J. Gillespie! I didn't know that!
- Yeah. That's my little secret thing that I do.
- Ask me a question.
- Alright. - (laughs)
- This is a thick one.
What's your favorite high school movie?
- My favorite high school movie.
Heathers!
- Oh that's a good one!
- Right! I know! - That's a good one to have.
- It's dark, but it's a good one.
- But it's so funny.
- That's my favorite high school movie.
- That's a good one. - Yeah.
- Are you and your character similar at all?
- No - (laughs)
- No, of course we are, you know.
I mean I grew up playing football,
and I also grew up doing musical theater,
and I did Spring Awakening, too, so like
Robbie and I, as you well know, just...
we have a lot in common.
- Well, what's the last thing you've done that's scared you?
- I proposed. Yeah.
- (clapping) Yeah.
- That was terrifying.
I didn't realize how scary it was gonna be
until I walked on that stage. - Hmm
- And like, had her with me with the ring.
- Well, what was the scary part, because you knew
what she was gonna say. - I know.
Well of course, but it's still like...
I honestly don't know why, I don't know why I was nervous,
I don't know why I was so scared,
I don't know why I was freaking out.
Like when you see it, it's like, you know, it's cool, calm,
and collected. - It's flawless. (laughs)
- As I'm holding her hand, just...
- (laughs) Oh.
That was probably the most terrifying thing
I've done recently.
- What's the last TV show you binged?
- Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, and...
but also Gilmore Girls.
- Ooh! - I love Gilmore Girls.
- Really! - Love Gilmore Girls.
- I didn't know that. I've never watched Gilmore Girls.
- Oh, it's so funny. - (laughing)
- This is a good one. - Ah.
- What would Robbie and Lilette's song be?
- Oh! Robbie and Lilette's song.
That's a good one.
- I feel like it would be Finesse,
just so we could have fun with it.
(laughing)
- It's like, just two out-there people just...
- "It don't make no sense." I'll take that!
- I'll take that too.
- Alright. Yeah, Rob and Lilette.
- Do I have that one too?
- Yeah, 'cause I skipped your turn.
- This is a good one.
What's your go-to audition song?
- For Rise I auditioned with, um
♪My mother was a tailor, ♪
♪ she sewed my new blue jeans.♪
What was that? Uh...
House of the Rising Sun. House of the Rising Sun.
- Oh. That's a different rendition of that song,
I'm gonna be honest with you. (laughs)
- Yeah. - I've never hear that one.
- Yeah. What's your go-to audition song?
- Mine is...it depends on what it is,
but for this one it was
♪Blue looks good on the sky♪
- Oohh, goin' for those riffs.
If you could re-do that Lion King audition,
what song would you audition with?
Would you audition with that same song?
- Death of a Bachelor.
- (squeals) Panic! At the Disco!
- Because not only is that song even higher
- (laughs) Yeah!
- and it shows off even more than you can do than that song,
I would be there and I would be ready,
because I've heard this song more than three times.
- (laughs)
- So that would be mine.
- Well done.
- Well done, Cravalho.
(slapping sound)
- Thank you for asking those questions.
- Thank you, guys, for having us.
(laughing)
