The imperative

Bless you for being here, thank you so very much for making the time, thank you for being part of the show tonight, it's huge.

To-infinitive

Now, Natalie, I want to ask you this, do you, because I have been the beneficiary of this, any cool points with your children that you're here with Billie Eilish today?

Past simple

Major, I just got like street cred for the rest of my life because Billie was so sweet with my daughter.

My daughter got to meet Billie backstage and I'm going to be cool now for a little while, thanks to you, thank you.

Now, Billie, I want to talk to you about this.

We spoke about this briefly in your dressing room now.

You were 15 when you had your TV debut performing Ocean Eyes on our show.

That song has since been streamed 6.3 billion times.

I remember that I was very nervous and I was very sick and I was sick for like many years, I feel like.

And my voice was kind of messed up and I was just like really nervous and I just wanted to really do a good job.

And I remember, you know, you came to meet us in the room and I remember it was like the first celebrity I'd ever been up close to.

And I was like, oh my God, it's James Corden!

I don't know why, I think I remember just thinking, oh no no, this is like an artist I'm going to watch the rest of my life.

But I remember meeting your mum, meeting your brother, meeting your dad.

I feel like this entire eight years, in one way or another, you or members of your family have really spanned this whole time for me.

And the best thing I can say, and I tried to say at the start of the show, is you are exactly the same person that I met then, in your core and your person.

And it's a credit to you and it's a credit to your family.

I mean, Natalie, you achieved huge success at a very young age.

Do you have a favourite film or a favourite memory from one in this extraordinary career?

Well, I'm sure Black Swan is like the most I've met my husband.

That's like the rest of my life followed because of that movie.

You've been doing a little bit of acting.

You were in Donald Glover's new series, Swarm.

If you could think of a project that you wanted, what would it be?

Would you see Billie Eilish in a rom-com?

You've already done the song for a Bond movie.

I mean, honestly, Swarm was kind of a dream role for me.

When that was brought up to me, I was like, oh, this is the thing.

I mean, you know, Donald Glover is like my all-time hero.

Natalie, I want to talk to you about this.

You've been posting some very popular cooking videos online, right?

If you were competing on, say, Top Chef or Hell's Kitchen or The Bake Off, which show would Natalie Portman have the best chance of winning?

I'm a Top Chef diehard, so I think I've watched enough that I probably...

I hope I've gotten something from it, yeah.

Let's say Billy and I are coming over because Donald Glover's busy.

Let's say Billy and I are coming over for dinner.

I honestly, if that's the opener, I'm fine.

If I'm going around to Natalie Portman's, I really want like a good, you know, like a nice little pad thai or something.
