-Congratulations on what must've been
an incredibly exciting year.
-It's been -- Yeah, it's been okay.
-Yeah. -Not too shabby, you know?
-You know, even before "Crazy Rich Asians" came out,
I had enjoyed reading you.
You were very outspoken
and spoke very eloquently about representation.
-Yes. -What has been the feedback
you've gotten after the success
of "Crazy Rich Asians" this summer?
-Mostly it's been tears.
-That's wonderful to hear. -It depends on
what kind of tears, but they were the good kind.
-I was imagining it was the good kind.
-Yes, it just -- -It was like, "I didn't want
you guys to get together at the end!"
-Yeah, like, "Why did I have to watch you on the screen?!"
Not those kind of tears.
I mean, it's just -- Because it's so rare.
It's been 25 years since we've seen
an all-Asian cast lead a Hollywood movie in English.
-Yeah. -You know, and so --
[ Cheers and applause ]
Great, right?
And sometimes you don't know what you're missing
until you see it. -Sure.
-So, I think a lot of people,
when they saw it, moved them to tears.
'Cause representation equals possibility.
And so... [ Cheers and applause ]
-And when -- I imagine there was
going into it, and now there's a great release
because it was so well-received,
did you feel the pressure going into it as a cast?
Did you realize, "Oh, this is --"
You know, it seemed very unfair, but the fact this is only
the first time in 25 years, if this doesn't go well,
will it be another 25 years? -Yeah.
I mean, somebody's gotta do it, the first one, right?
-Right. -It's a lot of pressure
and expectations, and we were definitely
all very stressed and nervous but also excited
'cause we loved working with each other.
And it was such a special experience for us
'cause all the actors on that movie
were used to being the one token Asian in the cast,
except for me, with "Fresh Off the Boat."
-But, you know, doing this movie,
no one ever felt like they had to try to fit in
or explain themselves.
We just got to be.
-And that just -- It seems so --
You know, when you think about it,
everybody else who's on a movie
never has to also worry about that part.
They just go do their job
and don't have to worry about fitting in.
So it must have been so nice. And obviously, it showed,
because it was such a wonderful piece of work.
So, congratulations again. -Thank you.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-I know you grew up in Virginia. -Yes.
-You lived in New York for a bit.
You're in L.A. now. -Yes.
-This is very -- I don't know if "exciting"
is the right word, or scary, but you had a burglar?
-I did! And it was such an L.A. burglary.
-Okay. -Because, um --
-They left a head shot?
[ Laughter ]
-No, it was -- Okay.
It was a girl. -Okay.
-'Cause I have security cameras on my property, so I saw it.
And she did a fashion show with my clothes
for me in my yard by going back and forth.
And then -- Okay, this is a little weird.
She took a shower in my house.
[ Audience groans ]
But she took a [bleep] on my patio.
[ Audience screams, laughter ]
And I have it on tape, guys. -Yeah.
-Okay. It gets better.
It gets better, because the police and detective
who came and, you know, checked everything else, they --
they took the [bleep] as DNA evidence.
-Oh, my God.
[ Laughter and applause ]
-What a job. -What a job.
-I know. [ Laughter ]
-I also feel like she might've thought she got away with it,
and she was like, "I didn't leave any fingerprints.
Oh, no!"
[ Laughter ]
"Oh, no."
You are a big fan of musical theater, yes?
-Mm-hmm. -You named --
You have a rabbit that you named --
What did you name your rabbit? -I named her Lida Rose
after a song from the musical "The Music Man."
-Okay. You posted a video of Lida Rose.
-Yes. -This is --
Was she eating lettuce? Is that what she's doing here?
-Probably parsley, but let's --
-Let's take a look, and we'll see.
-That's parsley. -Okay.
[ Audience "Awws" ]
[ Laughter ]
It's really fun how little
Lida has to move the rest of her body to eat.
-Yeah. [ Laughter ]
-Do you think Lida looks like -- -Wait.
Sorry. Do you have to move the rest of your body when you eat?
-That's how you -- [ Laughter ]
That's how I burn the calories. I'm constantly --
I get a Subway sandwich, I get right on the treadmill.
[ Laughter ]
That's a very fair observation about the fact that...
[ Laughter ]
I apologize to Lida Rose for burning --
-Yeah. Being bunnyist.
You know?
You think she looks like a Hollywood actor.
-Um...yeah.
-All right. Let's put Lida Rose back up,
and then you tell us who -- who you think she looks like.
-I mean, do I even have to say it?
Jeremy Irons. -I don't --
[ Laughter ]
-Now, at first, I was like, "That's not fair.
Jeremy Irons doesn't look anything like Lida Rose."
And then we pulled a photo, and I'm like,
"All right, ballpark."
[ Laughter ]
It's definitely --
-I'm thinking of having her apply to be his stunt double.
-That'd be great. [ Laughter ]
-A flying rabbit, like, jumping off a plane.
I don't know. -Are you --
Is Broadway something you'd want to do again?
Are you gonna see shows when you're here?
-Well, I have to go back to L.A. tomorrow.
Otherwise, I would see, like, every show I could,
and, like, my biggest goal right now
is to come back and do Shakespeare in the Park.
-Oh, that's fantastic. -Yeah, so.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Well, based on all your other success,
I can't imagine that won't happen.
It is such a delight to meet you.
Thank you so much for being here.
-Thank you. It was a pleasure to be here.
