BOBBY CANNAVALE!

EVERYBODY, LOOK AT THESE TWO!

RIGHT THERE!

I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU!

NOW, TELL ME, WHERE ARE YOU ZOOMING IN FROM?

CURRENTLY, WHERE ARE YOU IN THE WORLD.

>> IN BY RON BAY, AUSTRALIA.

AND WE'RE BUBBLING SO WE CAN BE IN THE SAME ROOM.

>> James: HOW IS THE SHOW GOING?

>> I HAVE TO GO ON A RIVER TODAY.

>> James: YOU'VE BEEN IN A RIVER TODAY OR YOU'RE ABOUT TO

GO IN A RIVER TODAY?

>> I HAVE TO GO BECAUSE IT'S TOMORROW MORNING IN AUSTRALIA

GO -- AND EVERYONE'S LIKE, IT'S ALL RIGHT, THE SNAKES WON'T HURT

YOU.

AND I SAID, NO, I HEARD THE SNAKES WILL KILL ME.

AND THEY'RE LIKE, HA, HA, HA.

THE WATER IS NOT MOVING.

I SAID THIS ISN'T A RIVER, THIS IS STAGNANT WATER.

AND EVERYONE LAUGHS AND SAY, NO DRAMA!

AND THEY LAUGH.

>> James: THEY DO THAT, THE AUSTRALIANS.

ETCH THE SPIDERS, YOU GO INTO THE BATHROOM AND THERE WILL BE

WOULD BE NEXT TO A TOILETTE, THEY WILL BE, LIKE, DO YOU MIND,

MATE, I'M HAVING A LITTLE PERSONAL TIME.

AND YOU'RE SAYING, NO WORRIES, I'LL LEAVE YOU TO IT.

HAVE YOU HAD ANY EXPERIENCE WITH THE CREEPY CRAWLIES?

>> YEAH, ONE LANDED ON MY BACK.

I SAID, NO PROBLEM.

HE GOES, NO PROBLEM, THE OTHER DAY I HAD A MASSIVE SPIDER ON MY

BACK, DID THE SAME THING TO ME.

I SAID, THAT'S NICE.

>> YEAH, SOMEBODY HIT SOMEBODY ON SET.

I THOUGHT, OH, MY GOD A FIGHT IS BREAKING OUT, ANDETH JUST THERE

WAS A FLY THAT WAS SO HUGE THAT THEY HIT SOMEBODY REALLY HARD

BUT THEY WERE, LIKE, YEAH, THEY HIT BECAUSE IF THE FLY HAD

GOTTEN YOU IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH WORSE THAN TAKE THE HIT.

>> HOW ABOUT THE KOALA UP IN THE TREE.

ALL DAY WE'RE LIKE A KOALA IS ON THE SET.

AND IF THEY FEEL TOO MANY PEOPLE ARE LOOKING, THEY JUST FALL ON

YOU.

>> A KOALA DROPPING.

ALL THE AMERICANS WERE, LIKE, OH, MY GOSH!

THE FIRST DAY ON THE SET THERE WAS A MOMMA AND A BABY KOALA IN

A TREE.

EVERY AMERICAN WAS, LIKE, OH, MY GOD!

AND THEY SAY THEY'LL KOALA DROP YOU AND RIP YOUR FACE OFF.

SO NOW I'M TERRIFIED.

>> James: THAT WAS MY MOVE AT HIGH SCHOOL.

THAT WAS MY MOVE AT HIGH SCHOOL.

IF I EVER GOT BULLIED OR SOMEONE STARTED SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT

MY SISTER, I'LL KOALA DROP YOU AND RIP YOUR FACE OFF.

NOW, THE MOVIE YOU'RE IN "SUPERINTELLIGENCE" IS DIRECTED

BY YOUR HUSBAND BEN, MELISSA.

HE'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE ON PLANET EARTH.

YOU RECENTLY CELEBRATED 15 YEARS OF MARRIAGE.

TELL ME, WHAT IS THE KEY TO A LONG AND HAPPY RELATIONSHIP?

>> HE'S THE NICEST, WEIRDEST, FUNNIEST GUY I KNOW.

THEN EVERYTHING IS EASY AFTER THAT.

>> IT'S LAUGHS.

CAN'T IMAGINE A SUPER INTENSE SERIOUS HOUSEHOLD.

I'M SURE IT WORKS FOR SOME PEOPLE.

AND WHEN THE GIRLS ARE DOING TERRIBLE BITS THAT WE FIND FUNNY

AT THE DINNER TABLE, THEY'RE LIKE, MY GOD!

NOTHING AGAINST THE BANKERS, BUT WE DO THE BANKERS AND BEN AND I

GET SUPER SERIOUS AND ASK ABOUT THE EDUCATION, HOW IS YOUR DAY.

AND THEN TWO MINUTES FROM THEN, BACK TO THE BITS, WHATEVER.

>> James: AND BOBBY, YOU AND ROSE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR

EIGHT YEARS NOW.

YOU'RE NOT TECHNICALLY MARRIED BUT YOU REFER TO ROSE AS YOUR

WIFE.

WHY IS THIS?

WHAT MADE YOU COME TO THE THIS IS HOW YOU WOULD DESCRIBE EACH

OTHER?

>> I CAN'T FIND A BETTER WORD FOR IT, TO BE HONEST.

BOYFRIEND, GIRLFRIEND FEELS TOO YOUNG, PARTNER FEELS TOO

CLINICAL.

AND, YOU KNOW, MY LADY PARTNER?

THAT'S STILL WEIRD.

>> James: YEAH.

UNLESS YOU BOTH BECOME COPS.

SO WE JUST -- IT'S JUST EASIER.

PEOPLE DON'T ASK QUESTIONS.

YOU SAY THIS IS MY WIFE.

>> James: I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT GIRLFRIEND.

THOUGH IF YOU AND ROSE ARE TOGETHER IN YOUR 60s AND

70s, IT'S COOL TO GO BACK TO CALLING EACH OTHER GIRLFRIEND

AND BOYFRIEND.

I THINK IT COMES BACK AROUND.

>> I WILL BE 90 AND THIS IS MY 90-YEAR-OLD BOYFRIEND BOBBY.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A 90-YEAR-OLD BOBBY?

( LAUGHTER ) >> James: MELISSA, YOU HAVE

TWO CHILDREN AT HOME.

OUR SON IS GETTING A BIT OLDER, AN ONE OF YOUR DAUGHTERS HAS

JUST BECOME A TEENAGER.

WHAT IS IT LIKE HAVING A TEENAGER IN THE HOUSE?

>> I DIDN'T -- I KEPT SAYING NOTHING WAS GOING TO CHANGE AND

THEN THERE WAS, LIKE, SOMEONE CAME IN, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE

NIGHT, AND JUST KIND OF SWAPPED CHILDREN.

NOT IN A BAD WAY, BUT JUST SHE WENT FROM, LIKE, GETTING UP

AT -- IT'S WEIRD STUFF.

IT'S LIKE YOU WAKE UP AT A NORMAL TIME, AND THEN ONE DAY AT

NOON.

I THOUGHT, OH, MY GOD SOMETHING'S WRONG, SHE'S ASLEEP.

I WENT ON IN CHECKING ON HER.

FROM THAT DAY ON, WAKING HER UP, SHE'S LIKE, AAAHHH!

IT'S LIKE SOMEONE COMING OUT OF A CRYPT.

IT'S SO WEIRD.

SHE JUST WANTS A CUP OF COFFEE.

SUDDENLY IT'S LIKE I'M LIVING WITH A 90-YEAR-OLD GUY.

>> DO GIRLS SMELL THE WAY BOYS DO?

>> NO, THAT'S SPECIFIC TO BOYS.

BUT, YEAH, SHE JUST -- >> James: I'M LOOKING FORWARD

TO MY CHILDREN SLEEPING IN.

MY DAUGHTER IS SIX, AND SHE WAKES UP AT 5:00 A.M., AND

SOMETIMES SHE COMES IN TO ME LIKE, HEY!

AND I'M, LIKE, YOU'RE SIX.

YOU HAVE NOTHING TO TO TODAY.

LIKE, YOU HAVE NO PLANS.

WELL, YOU'RE NOT THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

SHE'S LIKE, RIGHT, COME ON.

YOU KNOW, THIS HOUSE DON'T BUILD ITSELF.

I'M, LIKE, GIVE ME A BREAK, ALL THIS CAN HAPPEN AT NINE.

>> MY 4-YEAR-OLD HAS TAKEN TO COMING IN WITH A BIG GRIN ON HIS

FACE GOING, WHAT'S GOING ON?

I'M, LIKE, IT'S 5:45, NOTHING IS GOING ON.

HE'LL GET UP AND COME IN AND HE'LL BE HAVE A PARTICULARLY

GOOD SLEEP AND GO, DAD, LOOK AT ME.

I'LL GO, I'M LOOKING AT YOU.

HE GOES, I TOOK MY DANCING PILLS.

( LAUGHTER ) SO ACTUALLY LIKE THE MORNING, I

KIND OF LIKE THE MORNING.

I TRAINED MYSELF TO GO TO ■SLEEP EARLY ENOUGH SO I CAN GET THE

GEMS IN THE MORNING BECAUSE THEY'RE PRETTY FUNNY IN THE

MORNING.

IT'S LIKE THEY DON'T REALIZE, THEY MUST HAVE BEEN DREAMING

ABOUT SOMETHING IN THE MORNING AND IT COMES OUT THE FIRST THING

IN THE MORNING AND THEY SHARE IT WITH YOU.

LITTLE THINGS THAT PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE KIDS DON'T

UNDERSTAND.

>> James: DANCING PILLS, FANTASTIC.

YOU HAD THE MOST INCREDIBLE CAREER.

I HEARD YOUR ACTING CAREER MAY NOT HAVE HAPPENED IF IT WASN'T

FOR THE SPICE GIRLS.

IS THIS TRUE?

>> IT IS TRUE.

YOU KNOW, I USED TO JUST DO WHATEVER I COULD, YOU KNOW, TO

BE IN THE GAME, RIGHT, SO I WAS AN UNDERSTUDY IN A BROADWAY SHOW

AT THE TIME BACK IN 1997 OR 1998, AND THERE WAS A BRILLIANT

ACTOR NAMED MARK McKINNEY WHO WAS A WONDERFUL ACTOR FOR THE

HE WAS IN THE PLAY AT THE TIME AND I WAS HIS UNDERSTUDY.

THREE DAYS AFTER WE OPENED THE PLAY HE GOT THE SPICE GIRL MOVIE

AND HE HAD TO GO.

I STEP IN AND, SIX MONTHS LATER, I GOT A TELEVISION SHOW JUST

FROM THAT PLAY.

AND I NEVER WENT TO WORK BACK AFTER THAT.

SO I OWE MARK McKINNEY AND THE SPICE GIRLS A LOT.

>> James: WE ALL-THE SPICE GIRLS A LOT AND YOU IN

PARTICULAR.

WE'RE THRILLED ABOUT THAT.

STICK AROUND
