Welcome to Young Hollywood. Hi everyone, Nicki Novak here for Young Hollywood in Chicago for the Virgin America, Stand Up to Cancer, launch party. So with Adrian Grenier. How was your flight?
My flight was excellent. It was very short. I think Virgin flights are shorter than most. For some some like cosmic reason they I think I'm mocked like ten or something. I don't know how they do it. Maybe it just.
You look very fresh.
Well, thank you.
You always dress like this when you go on flights? I bet you don't.
No, it's a special occasion. I've been trying to sit down with Sir Richard for a couple months and and he had an opportunity for us to meet here for the inaugural flight into Chicago.
Tell us why you wanna meet him.
Oh well, I I I've met him several times before. I wanted to pick his brain about some things. I know he's a big environmentalist and a great businessman, entrepreneur, and I am too.
Have you been to Necker Island, Richard's island?
I haven't. Maybe I'll get the invite today.
If the meeting goes really well, that's where your next meeting will take place.
Yeah, we'll see. That's his boardroom. It's like an island. Better than a corner office.
What do you think of his boxing outfit?
You know, had I known, I would have dressed in my boxing outfit and we would have gone a couple rounds.
With Jesse Williams from Grey's Anatomy. How's it going? You look warm in that jacket.
Good, I could be a little warmer. I could tell you, but uh it's good for you. You get you get spoiled out there in Southern California.
Where are you from?
I'm from Chicago. Born here.
Oh, the Chicago boy's here tonight.
You'd be surprised how many of us are from here. A lot of my childhood was here, a lot of my coming up was here, a lot of my memories and uh friends. I'm actually running into a lot of old friends today and tomorrow and the next day.
You're with Jenna Dewan. How are you?
I'm really good.
You look as cold as me. I'm like, do I look cold? Because I'm freezing right now. Where did you come in from because you weren't on the flight?
I was not, I was in New Orleans visiting my husband and then um I just flew here for the night. Now I go back to LA. I'm like I'm like a gypsy. That's what I am.
How's married life?
It's amazing. It's amazing.
I was looking at you. I feel like we're in like the middle of a hurricane and we're still doing an interview. This is hilarious. From Chicago.
I am from Chicago, yeah.
Is it always this cold and?
This is shorts weather. This is crazy.
I'm from Canada. I shouldn't complain.
What part of Canada are you from?
Toronto.
Oh wow, yeah, this is like this is beautiful.
I know. So how was the flight over in Virgin? Did you dig it?
I love Virgin, yeah. Amazing. It's about time. Love Virgin.
Did you say love Virgin? That was my first Virgin joke by the way. Hey, take interpret it as you will.
Yes. I do love Virgin. America. Virgin America.
This is America.
Yes, Virgin's in America.
With Johnny Galecki. Yes, you were filthy on the flight. Look at you're all clean now. You go from geek to like cool like plane like sunglasses, scarf, and now you're all like
You did, you noted my scarf on the flight.
Yeah. Scarf. I like a man that wears a scarf.
You got you got to keep up with the Branson.
Exactly. He was so cool. Coming off the flight, he shook every single person's hand coming off the flight. He's that kind of guy.
I had just started reading his new book the night before I got the email with this invite.
Where did you grow up?
Here in Chicago.
So you're home.
I am. It's weird to be doing a press line in your hometown.
