- I'm embarrassed, I'm embarrassed, I'm sad for myself.

(upbeat music)

- Hey guys, welcome to "Stir Crazy".

My guest today is extraordinary in every way,

I'm contractually bound to say that

because she's the star

of "Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist" on NBC

but it also happens to be true,

it's Jane Levy.

- Hi Josh.

- It's good to see you, buddy.

Prior to "Zoey", I noticed from our past conversations

you weren't necessarily

the singer and dancer extraordinaire,

you hadn't done a ton of that.

- Yes. - Do you feel

like you're ready to call yourself a triple threat?

Do you feel like you've earned the triple threat status?

- I feel like my therapist would tell me I should say yes.

- (laughing) That's me right now

so yes say it, just say it.

- Okay, yes.

- I'm Jane and I'm a triple threat.

- I'm Jane and I'm a triple threat.

Oh no, is that gonna be what you like choose

as the like - No.

- opener of this thing?

Hi, I'm Jane Levy and I am a triple threat.

(celebratory music)

- That is, not the first version.

- Okay. - Yeah, thank you.

Do you have new weird dancer muscles

thanks to all your dancing?

Like do you have like giant Dwayne Johnson calves now?

- Ah, that's really funny, no.

(Josh laughing)

I do have like shoulder pain.

- Ooh, that's not as glamorous but that's something.

What are your vocal warmup exercises?

Do you have any new ones?

- I don't know if you know

about local warmup land, but it's pretty wacky, like

- I know. - yummy, yummy, yummy,

like that is one of the things, you know?

Yeah, you look pretty goofy when you warm up for singing.

- So you've said you've kind of fallen in love with dancing

and you enjoy that part of the job,

we've got a challenge for you,

we've got a dancing challenge.

- I forgot.

So I'm wearing sweat pants

- If it works for you. - and I'm wearing

smiley face socks.

- (laughing) Perfect, that's the wardrobe for this.

Perfect. - Yeah.

(upbeat music)

- All right, here we go.

You warmed up, you're ready.

- I don't know.

(Josh laughing)

- Alright lets start with, The Twist.

- I mean, what's The Twist?

This? - That is The Twist.

Bing, yes.

The Robot.

- Oh, The Robot.

I mean, I don't think I'm very good at it.

- No, that's The Robot. - I would have seen

this on the internet and be like just seeing, okay.

- Charleston, let's go old school, Charleston.

- This is the Charleston.

- Whoa. - Right?

- Yeah, that's definitely the Charleston.

(laughing) You can taking a bow.

Electric Slide, Electric Slide.

- Like is the electric slide just that

or is it like the slide?

- That seems like a slide that's electric to me.

- (mumbles) I'm sorry, I lose that one.

- Okay, let's go to '90s Vogue.

So Madonna Voguing.

- It's like, right?

- Sure. - By the way, not Madonna,

- Popularized. - Madonna corrupted voguing.

- Wow, we're getting political.

The Macarena, my personal favorite.

Never goes out of style.

Yup (laughing).

The Floss, Can you floss?

- I don't know what the floss...

Oh, is it this thing?

So like, no that thing? - Yeah, right?

- I'm embarrassed, I'm embarrassed, I'm sad for myself.

- You've been shooting in Vancouver I take it,

the new season of "Zoey"?

- Yes. - So many shows traditionally

in the last few years have been shooting there.

Do you wander inadvertently into "Riverdale" episodes?

Like do you just cross paths with these other productions?

- No, I mean, especially right now

we're not really hanging out.

I don't even really hang out with my cast

because we're trying to be as careful as possible.

But, you know, I imagine what they must be doing at night.

Sometimes I sit in my house

and I'm like what would Camila Mendes be doing?

What would AJ Kapa. - KJ, so cruel, KJ Apa.

Huge "Riverdale" fan big time.

- What would Lili Reinhart,

what would Lili Reinhart be doing?

I actually do imagine.

I'm like I wonder what their house looks like.

- Yeah, well I think the first step to imagining it

is knowing the correct pronunciation of their name.

- But did I say AJ Kapa?

- AJ Kapa sounds like the coolest dude ever

by the way (laughing).

Some would you rather questions for you Jane?

Some provocative would you rather question.

(upbeat music)

Would you rather never sing again

or never be able to stop singing?

- Never be able to stop singing.

- So you say everything out of your mouth is gonna be song.

- Sure, you mean we have a melody

the way we speak anyways.

So it's like, you just want it down a little bit.

- Okay, would you rather have Peter Gallagher's eyebrows

or Skylar Astin's singing voice?

- Oh, Skylar's singing voice I would prefer.

- Would you rather be a backup dancer for J-Lo

or be one of Taylor Swift's best friends?

- Backup dancer for J-Lo.

- You've got the moves as we've proven, you're ready.

Would you rather have the world's most annoying laugh

or have a bell ring every time you pass gas?

- Oh God, fine give me the bell ring, fuck it.

(Josh laughing)

It's like fuck it, I'm a human,

sometimes you gotta pass gas.

- Yeah, ding ding,

Jane went again, there she is.

This is the Dakota Johnson Memorial question,

she posed this to me on a previous episode,

would you rather have a mouthful of bees

or one be in your butt?

- One bee in my butt.

- Literally no one says the mouthful of bees.

Is it about you just want that experience

or you just don't want the experience

of the mouthful of bees?

- Yeah, I deeply want the experience of a bee in my butt,

that's why, 'cause I was like, I'm into that.

In fact I've done it before.

- Let's go old school.

We're gonna do some charades.

(upbeat music)

Okay, movie?

A squeezy movie?

Okay, yep.

(both laughing)

- Ew, what am I doing?

- I don't know. - Okay.

- Four words.

Is it four or five words?

You're worrying me again, five words.

Okay, fifth word, fifth word.

You, Jane.

Something for Jane?

Singing Jane.

A star is born Jane.

Yeah, let's take a break,

Okay, what was that?

- You did a good job, good acting.

- All right, so you're used to cold reads as a professional.

These are really cold reads.

Okay, your turn.

the other one got smaller.

- That's the way it works.

It's physics.

- Hello, hello back...

Oh, "Hollaback Girl".

I thought it was hello back girl at first.

- Gross.

- Before you kick me off of your show because I'm so lame

- No. - that I don't...

I've never seen that movie.
