Not the funny stuff.

Look, Andre,

they're gonna write the story anyway.

And I mean, it's hard enough

getting you a job as it is.

I mean, it's not like everybody's

knocking on your door for work.

It's really hard to get you work.

You know that, I know that.

Do you think the wedding is hurting me?

Are you kidding me? Listen, Andre,

the wedding is the best thing

that you got going right now.

And let's be honest.

Andre, if this thing flops,

we could be talking

Dancing With The Stars, man.

Dancing With the F***ing Stars?

Yes. Dancing With The Stars.

That's where you're at right now.

Andre, all these people want to do

is follow you around for one day.

Let them follow you around!

You know, if I get the word out,

this movie could still be a big hit.

It could be like a Haitian Django.

If you say so, Andre, then yes.

Hold on. Hold on.

Hey! Hey! Hey!

What is going on?

Where's everyone running to?

Zoolander's in the conference room!

Ben Stiller's in the conference...

These white people don't tell me sh*t!

Yo, Silk! Where's the car?

It's in range.

Hey, how'd it go with Charlie Rose?

Chelsea Brown.

From the Times.

Yes, from the Times.

How'd it go? I thought

you were supposed to be watching.

You a real journalist,

or like Miss Detroit?

Funny.

Look, they just told me

that you're gonna be doing this.

I'm sorry if I'm late.

Congratulations on the wedding.

And the movie.

You know, some friends and I saw you

a few years back at Purchase.

You were really great.

Thank you very much

for doing this interview.

Why, 'cause your boy James Nielson

said he wouldn't watch my next movie

if it was playing in his glasses?

James.

Hey, who would have thought Google

would have made that possible, right?

Look, you're about a half hour late.

If I were you, I would get started.

Okay. I just need to go home first.

They just told me

that we were doing this.

I don't have my recorder.

Recorder? What are you, Lois Lane?

- Just use your phone.

- No, you don't understand.

I can't do an interview without it.

It's kind of my thing. I'm sorry.

You take these?

Yes.

They're good.

I do photography on the side.

I do a little poetry on the side,

I do a little music on the side.

That's nice.

It's always good to make sure

you never get too good at any one thing.

Okay, I'm almost done.

I just need to change really quickly.

I'm gonna surprise my boyfriend

for his birthday.

A word of advice.

Never surprise anyone.

Why?

Hey, I call my mother before I go over,

'cause I don't want to

walk in there one day

and catch her hugging up

on some other kid!

Hi. Are you going to marry

Princess Erica on TV?
