I see you at the Nick Games.
22
Were you at the game the other night?
23
No, I was working.
24
Wow.
25
I was working, because I didn't know that it was going to,
26
you know, go to that deep into the playoff.
27
Yeah, it was fantastic.
28
It was such a great game.
29
What are you like at the games?

Are you a Loud fan or are you a...

There's Nick's colors.

I'm like, what kind of fan am I?
37
I'm very...
38
I'm very chill.
39
I'm very loving and calm.
40
But, like, I'm also the type of fan that I considered wearing an OG jersey out here today.
41
Yeah!
42
Let's see.
43
So I'm, like, I'm kind of the...
44
You're a little both, yeah.
45
Because I like...
46
When I'm at the game,
47
I want them to know that I know who they are and that they're gonna win.
48
Yes.
49
You know?
50
Like, I don't want to,
51
like, get out and say,
52
like, oh, what are you doing, all that.
53
I want them to know that,
54
like, you can do no wrong.
55
Yeah.
56
I'm trying to be, like, a gentle, loving...
57
Yes, you remember that...
58
Motherly fan.
59
Motherly fan.
60
You're a motherly fan.
61
You're like, I'll take care of you.
62
Yeah, you're doing a great job out there.
63
And when you missed the basket, that wasn't you.
64
Ah, it wasn't you.
65
That basket moved.
66
I saw it.
67
There was a moment last season that went viral,
68
and it just shows how composed you are at Knicks games.
69
Here's what happened.
70
Nobody's scaring those along the sidelines.
71
Yeah, OG gets in that passing lane, cross-court pass.
72
Sorry, you should defend that.
73
Whoa, he's saying.
74
The little kid was mesmerized.
75
He couldn't move.
76
He's not happy about the popcorn being spilled.
77
That's for sure.
78
There's always more popcorn, young man.
79
Yeah, there's always more popcorn, young man.
80
He's so cute.
81
That was Jack, and then the little brunette that kind of dove across, that was Johnny.
82
They acted cool.
83
You're so sweet.
84
Were you scared for a second?
85
OK, well, this is like,
86
I don't know what this says about me.
87
I'm so focused on the ball.
88
I was so excited because,
89
like, you know how it is when you're a kid,
90
you dream about, like, maybe someday I'll sit close to the action.
91
Wait, I have this dream, too.
92
You have this dream, right?
93
It's like the dream of every sports fan.
94
The ball comes out, you get the ball, yes.
95
And either you...
96
Do you pass it...
97
Back?
98
Do you bounce past it to the ref?
99
Do you shoot it?
100
Do you do a little...
101
No. Yes, I go for the three.
102
Oh.
103
If I get the ball in the next game, I'm throwing it.
104
I got to do it.
105
I've got to...
106
Yes.
107
And that's the type of fan you are.
108
That's why I'm not invited to the garden.
109
I was like, do you underhand it?
110
Do you give a little...
111
You're like, hey, there you go.
112
Like, and the truth is,
113
like, none of the above.
114
You're like, here.
115
You didn't think he was going to tackle you?
116
He's so much bigger than you.
117
I missed the whole...
118
I was so excited about the ball.
119
I never imagined something even better was going to happen.
120
Even better.
121
Which was that, like, OG was going to be right there.
122
And so it was like this thing where he was coming at me.
123
Time slowed down.
124
Yes.
125
And I just, I knew he didn't want to hit me or my family.
126
Yeah.
127
And he didn't.
128
Any more than I wanted to be hit.
129
No. But then it became a headline.
130
GQ said, did Anne Hathaway get the Knicks season back on track?
131
Because after that, they just kept winning and winning and winning and winning.
132
You're the good luck charm, bud.
133
Come on.
134
Thank you.
135
Oh, man.
136
As a Knicks fan.
137
I had nothing to do with them.
138
No, nothing to do with the talent of the team, of course.
139
Nothing to do with the talent of the team.
140
I will be Dumbo's feather, absolutely.
141
If that's where I sit.
142
You're a great actress, you're a great basketball fan,
143
but also you have a great voice, you're a great singer.
144
I love you.
145
In this new movie, Mother Mary,
146
you play a pop star and you sing a bunch of the songs on the soundtrack
147
in character and you crush it, bud.
148
It sounds so good.
149
Oh, thank you so much.
150
Who...
151
Did you write the songs, or who...?
152
I did write one of them,
153
and then I kind of contributed lyrics and other kind of...
154
I don't know how...
155
I still don't know how to describe it.
156
I'm still so new to this,
157
but, like, the development of the sound of the song.
158
It was, like, Charlie XCX?
159
Yes.
160
Oh, my gosh.
161
It was Charlie XCX.
162
Yeah.
163
It was FKA Twigs.
164
Oh, my God!
165
And it was Jack Antonoff.
166
Jack Antonoff.
167
Oh, my God.
168
That's a trifecta.
169
That's pop royalty.
170
That's pop royalty right there.
171
Do you have a taste of Cut Ties?
172
Can you play a little bit of that?
173
Used to walk with you till I saw something bigger Come on!
174
I had to play it!
175
That's fantastic!
176
Dude, you sound so great!
177
That's a great song.
178
I actually...
179
That's a song that's in the soundtrack,
180
but it's not on screen,
181
so I've never actually, like,
182
heard it with an audience.
183
Aw, come on, see?
184
My heart just...
185
My heart just did!
186
You have to be proud.
187
You have to be proud of that, bud.
188
I'm working on that part.
189
You're crushing it.
190
You're crushing it.
191
Let's talk about The Devil Wears Prada 2.
192
The trailer...
193
The trailer alone had, like, 222 million views.
194
It did okay.
195
Yeah.
196
It's the most viewed trailer in the history of the 20th century.
197
Congrats.
198
Uh, the sequel...
199
Uh, I mean, it's been talked about for 20 years,
200
but when did it feel like it actually might happen?
201
It might be real.
202
When did it...
203
Oh, my gosh.
204
Well, it was such a crazy idea that it could happen,
205
that for so many years,
206
it was like people would ask,
207
and I'd be like, there's no way.
208
I mean, it's.. you can't come back to that.
209
The world's so different.
210
And then we got the call that Aline Brush McKenna,
211
our writer, and David Frankl,
212
our director, had found a way in
213
that was gonna be able to talk about all this stuff that we've been going through.
214
And we got the script.
215
It was great.
216
It got greenlit like that.
217
We were on set like that.
218
You got Meryl Streep.
219
You have Emily Blunt.
220
Come on, you have Stanley Tucci.
221
Come on, you got it all back.
222
But here's the thing.
223
It was so big, the crowds were amazing,
224
and so we just kind of had to,
225
again, lock in, eye on the ball.
226
So I didn't actually realize what we'd done until I was on my way to the premiere.
227
Really?
228
I was in a sprinter van standing up in this beautiful dress by Louis Vuitton,
229
which I didn't want to get anything on,
230
so I was actually wearing the garment bag.
231
And, um, try it.
232
And so...
233
You had a dress and a bag over the dress?
234
Naturally.
235
And so...
236
And, um, and I was,
237
like, on my way to the premiere,
238
and I was like, oh,
239
my God, we made The Devil Wears Prada, too.
240
Yes, you actually did.
241
Yeah, you were like...
242
And it's just, like, all of these memories just,
243
like, came flooding back, and one of them...
244
This is gonna blow your mind,
245
because it just came back to me tonight.
246
We used to play a game on the first one,
247
which was worst word.
248
Yes.
249
And Emily Blunt's worst words were moist ointment.
250
Moist ointment.
251
Oh!
252
That is.. that totally wins.
253
I didn't even think about moist ointment.
254
Moist ointment.
255
There's so many classic quotes from the original Devil Wears Prada.
256
Uh, it has a cult following.
257
Uh, everyone loves it.
258

347
That's your personal two.

We can argue about it at the commercial break.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
