-You started here and got your big start in New York
because it was in the kind of cabaret alt-comedy scene.
But, I mean, all my friends know you
and like, "Oh, Bridgett Everett's the best!"
-Aw, that's really sweet. -How did you start doing those?
-Well, I actually started doing karaoke.
[ Laughs ]
-It started with karaoke? -Yeah.
-All good things start with karaoke.
-Well, a lot of people don't know --
That's true. A lot people think karaoke's sad
but I think it's wonderful.
[ Laughter ]
-I love it, man, I love it.
-I mean, if you don't see a mental healthcare professional
like I do, like, that's where you're gonna work it out.
[ Laughter ]
-It's fun! So, you just started there
and then people were like, "Hey, you got a good voice"?
-Yeah, basically. It was like from there to here.
Two weeks ago, I was singing karaoke
on the Lower East Side, and now I'm here.
[ Laughter and applause ] -I love Sing Sing!
I know that! -It's so good, right?
-Absolutely, yeah, yeah. So, you just go
and you do your jams, and then you ended up, like...
I know you did a lot of shows at Joe's Pub.
-Yeah, I work at Joe's Pub a lot, and I'm a cabaret singer.
And I know that "cabaret" is a very cool,
almost like a hot buzz word right now. [ Laughs ]
-[ Laughing ] Yeah, exactly.
-I remember I was at this comedy festival
with my friend Adam,
who happens to be Ad-Rock of the Beastie Boys.
I'm just dropping that right now.
But we're riding around, and everybody's like, "Oh!
What are you guys here for?" And he's like, "Oh, she's
a cabaret singer." I was like, "Shut up!"
[ Laughter ]
-"Come on! Please don't tell anybody."
He's so cool. He can do cabaret.
People are like, "Yeah! Ad-Rock does cabaret, man!
It's cool," you know?
But when I do it, they're like, "That's that waitress from
the Upper West Side, right?"
[ Laughter ]
-But you have a motto which is "DDHD" or something like that?
What is that? -Well, actually,
I'm sure you've heard of LL Cool J before, right?
-Absolutely, yeah. I love him.
-He told me -- Well, he didn't tell me,
he told Oprah. [ Laughter ]
He told Oprah...
-So many names are dropping right now.
I'm freaking out right now.
He told Oprah? Where were you with LL Cool J and Oprah?
-I was at home watching "Lifeclass."
-Oh. [ Laughter ]
Interesting. That's where Oprah airs, yes.
-And basically, she's like, "LL, how do you do it?
Your empire -- You got your fragrance empire
and you're on these television shows
and you're a rapper and you're a mogul."
And he's like, "Oprah, DDHD."
And I was like, "What just happened?"
-I love that you licked your lips, yeah.
-And he has the best lips in the world.
If I saw them, I would just touch them.
[ Laughter ]
But "DDHD" stands for "Dreams Don't Have Deadlines."
-Oh!
-It's so tired, right? But it's true.
When you're 42 years old waiting tables, you're like,
"DDHD." I got tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo.
[ Laughter ]
-But man, oh, man, you've been crushing it.
What a great summer! You have two giant movies out.
-Giant! -Well, they are!
I mean, you got "Fun Mom Dinner,"
which is Molly Shannon, Toni Collette.
I mean, it is super fun.
Adam Levine, Adam Scott, all kinds of people.
-Yeah, and moms should have fun!
That's the way it's -- Yeah. It's what you want it to be.
-It's so much fun. -Oh, it's ridiculous.
It's great. And then you have "Patti Cake$."
-Yeah, "Patti Cake$" is --
Oh, you were gonna say something.
I interrupted you. It's your show.
It's like I'm at your house and I'm telling you what to say.
I'm sorry! -No, what are you talking about?
-I didn't even bring you a gift. -No, I want you to talk!
-I didn't bring you anything! I didn't know, I'm sorry.
-You don't bring me a gift.
-No, no, Quest told me, he's like, "Bring Jimmy nuts
or chocolate bars."
-"Bring Jimmy nuts"?
[ Laughter and applause ]
-I'm kidding. -What are you talking about?
[ Laughter ]
"Bring Jimmy nuts"? Don't bring Jimmy nuts!
I don't want any nuts!
-I don't want any nuts. I'm very happy that you're here.
I don't need nuts. [ Laughter ]
-Everybody likes nuts. I love nuts!
-I know you love nuts. -I love nuts.
[ Laughter and applause ]
Oh, my God. I'm single.
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Laughter ]
-The Roots just played for me while I danced!
-"Fun Mom Dinner." -Yeah, bring me back.
-You have "Patti Cake$." -Okay, I'm back.
-"Patti Cake$," but this is about a rapper --
Patti Cake$, and that's your daughter in the movie,
and you play the mom.
-Yeah, I totally don't have a daughter in real life,
but if I did, it would be Patti Cake$
because she's --
She's, like, a -- She's a rapper.
She lives in New Jersey, she's got big dreams,
and it's kind of like
if you took, like, "Rudy" and "8 Mile" and you made like a --
And "Rocky" and you made a movie, that's what you get.
-Yeah. Because you really do root for her.
-You root for her. It's a -- I think it's a great movie.
And I'm really proud to be a part of it.
-I want to show a clip.

Well, you're getting great reviews for this.
Thanks for doing that.
You know, I always say all good nights begin with karaoke
and they also end with karaoke.
-God, I hope so.
-And I was just wondering if maybe...
