Hailee Steinfeld on What Holidays Mean to Her

We went to a studio at Young Hollywood. Yes, of course. Young Hollywood. I remember Young Hollywood. Yup. The couch. The infamous couch in Young Hollywood. I want to play a little game of telephone. Trooping on the same caliber. Did you come up with trooping? That's what you said. Oh jeez. I'm with the beautiful Haley Steinfeld. Jingle Ball Dallas. Uh, you just slayed on stage, by the way.

Thank you.

Amazing. Thank you so much. Uh, you look amazing, as always. I mean, Jingle Ball, it's all about like the festivities and holidays. Like, what does holidays mean to you?

Holidays for me is family time and friends and being in one place for longer than 24 hours. I went to LA Jingle Ball with my parents and I was like, oh my God, if I was only, if only I was on that stage. And a year later, I did the tour last year and I'm back on it again. I hope this becomes tradition 'cause I love being a part of it.

It is. It's like, it's almost like a holiday tradition. It's like another thing to add to your list. Do you have any family holiday traditions that you love doing?

Um, well, we, yes, we do. Again, the last couple years I, I've I feel like I've ruined them because I haven't been around. But, um, again, just being with family as much as you can. Cooking, baking, you know.

And I've talked about Edge of 17 'cause you were amazing in that, by the way. Hey. Izzy. I don't want to take up any of your time, but I'm gonna kill myself. Did you relate to like that character? 'Cause high school's all about like the awkward years, feeling like an outcast. You didn't go to high school yourself.

Thank you. No, I, I, um, I didn't, but I related to this character in more ways than I'm willing to admit. Um, she is something special and and to have been given really the honor to portray such an honest character. Um, I hope that my generation feels that this character does their story justice.

Well, have so much fun tonight.

Thank you so much.

Good to see you.
