Anna, if Grace were a pastry, what would she be? Why? There's only one right answer.
Oh! What about a traceless leche's cake? Is that a pastry?
Yeah, yeah. That sounds That sounds. But you're so sweet. But you're too much. Okay. I am joined by two very funny ladies who also happen to rock Spandex like nobody's business. Woo! Right, Hanna? Grace Helbig. Hi.
You're giving us way too much credit.
Much deserved. Um, you know, aka Dynagirl, Electrowoman. Yeah. Well, welcome. Take it all in. I know it's very overwhelming.
Yeah. This is amazing. And we thought being superheroes was intense. This set is intense.
Can we talk about the Spandex for a second? Because I mean these were the updated outfits obviously, but you start out in this reboot of Electrowoman and Dynagirl. Uh, in the original outfits and some very unforgiving outfits.
Well, hello, gentlemen. I'm going to shove that phone so deep inside you, you're going to have to do Kegels to answer it. I've never done Kegels, but I've heard things, weird things. Yeah, we had to beg for our forgiveness uh, every time we wore them. We were like, "Sorry, guys. Sorry. You have to see this." I also did a lot of apologizing to my own body for putting it through that for that experience. Because leggings are one thing, but like when you're wearing leggings over your entire person from head to toe, it's an intense experience.
Yeah. It's an entire body legging.
Yeah. Exactly. And mine was like this uh fun experiment in Pepto-Bismol um with like a mini-skirt, so Yeah. Yeah, it's good. It's good. Yeah. That was really fun.
But we're going to pay tribute to the original series and make sure that we got like the original um aspects of the original looks in there for uh for the beginning of the movie.
Yeah, and I think it serves to like really showcase the like transition that happens when we upgrade to the more like modern day costume.
Oh, it was rough.
Uh, the two of you have built up these social media empires really, just independently. So what made it made this project kind of, you know, make sense for you to come together and do?
It made sense because at the end of the day, even though it's this story about superheroes, it's really a story about friendship, which is something we have in real life off camera. Uh and something that
They're friends on camera and off camera.
Yeah. It's crazy. Which is normal for us, but was surprisingly really weird for the crew to see that we actually like hung out with each other in between takes and at lunch and after shooting.
You think you guys are better friends now after shooting?
I think we just get we just we are like continually more enmeshed as the
I was just going to say, are you pretty much one person at this point?
I don't know. No, we're just different people.
Since you're so close, Grace, what is Hannah thinking about right now?
She's thinking about we were just watching J. Lo music videos in the car on the way over, so I'm I have an assumption that she just wants to get back to watching more J. Lo. I'm on a big J. Lo kick right now. I don't know why. It's just kind of I think she's an inspiring businesswoman, entrepreneur. She can act. She can sing. She's a superwoman. Hannah and I take a lot of our interviews as opportunities to talk about other people and other projects that aren't us or our own. It's important.
Yeah. Please tell me more about your love for J. Lo. Okay. Let's talk about Beyoncé now. No! Grace. She is the most professional. Hannah, what's Grace thinking about right now?
Uh, probably where the closest bathroom is.
I don't know. Oh yeah. No, it's good. That's like some people look for exits. I make sure that I know where the bathrooms are. I'm out way too. That's why I sit on the edge. They just
She's always on it.
I'm always on the edge. Yeah, emotionally and physically.
Yeah, yeah, I feel like we're bonding.
Yeah, thank you. You've got You've got. Yeah. Okay. So let's do a little bit of loose talk because uh I feel like you know we got we're going to get to know each other a little better. Okay. Um if you could have any superhero power, what would it be? And why?
I would want the ability to oh, I would want This is going to sound nuts. But I don't think I'd want to be have to sleep. Like I'd want to be able to like yeah, just like be on the go all the time. You know?
Oh, all right. That sounds really exciting and very cool.
Okay, sorry. I think about it practically again. Okay. No, I want to fly. I want to fly. So my fun super fun thing is that I would love to be able to work all day long.
It's okay. We're not at Berkeley anymore. I know. We don't have to do that. You're not going to get an A at the end of this planet. It's okay. I don't know. I got to think about what my fun superpower would be. Yeah, what would yours be?
Uh my practical superpower would be to manifest a clean and private bathroom anywhere I am, wherever I am, um for myself and like loved ones and then be able to take it away from like evil people. Like the ability to be able to use the bathroom. But I think a frivolous one would be able to be like, "I'm getting some great REM sleep anytime I want."
That's pretty good. Yeah. That is good. Teleportation, though. That's actually cool. Because then I could be like, "I'm on to a different country."
Grace, if Hannah were a fruit, what would she be and why?
Banana. She'd be a banana because it's just I mean you look at a banana you're like, "That's hilarious. There's something like" There's something like "Yeah, there's something like non-offensive, but also kind of crude about it." You don't know why you like it. If you're going to go either way. It's familiar. It's friendly.
Hannah, if Grace were a pastry, what would she be? There's only one right answer.
If Grace is a pastry, um she would probably be I'm going to say oh, what about a traceless leche's cake? Is that a pastry?
Yeah, yeah. Sure. That sounds like you're so sweet. But you're too much. Okay. Well, that's not That was a complimentary. That was a weird backhanded compliment. Whoever's editing this video, can you also just replay Hannah's emotional roller coaster that happened before she chose her answer.
Oh! What about a traceless Oh! What about a traceless Oh! What about a traceless
She went, "Oh, okay. Okay, you're a croissant because you're flaky, but delightful and universally well-loved."
Yeah, I'll take it.
You you redeemed yourself. You guys are still friends now. Thank you. Uh, what's the weirdest request you've ever gotten on social media?
You get a lot of requests to marry people.
To marry people, yeah. That's that's yeah. Feels like a lot. Like as an ordained minister or as a Oh my God, that's going to be my new reply now. If somebody's like, "Hey, marry me." I'll be like, "Okay, I mean I'm booked, but"
You and your partner. Either to marry someone or to be to adopt someone.
Yeah, people call us mom.
Moms, dad, both. Yeah. Um,
Yeah. People are always like, "Moms." And we're like,
What do you think it is about your your persona that would make you good?
I think so. I don't know. If anything, we're just like fun irresponsible aunts.
Yeah. Yeah. At best.
Is there anything you won't post on social media?
Yeah, nudes.
Yeah. Oh, there you go. Yeah. Yep. I think that's pretty important. To not post nudes out there. Yeah, no nudes. Uh, I don't post a lot of like um I guess like mean-spirited, offensive things. Yeah. Yeah, don't like to take down people.
Yeah. I mean you actually you posted a video um in response to someone who had posted something that was a little bit mean-spirited and Yeah. And how I mean it seems like an inevitable part of being online and having your lives broadcast. What is there that people can do to combat all the hate?
It's hard. It's uh I think it's an impossible task to combat all of it. But then also kindness and compassion if if you have the ability to feel those things then you know that hate comes from a place of real deep insecurity and so instead of being counterly angry at the hate you just it's kind of sad. It's a bummer.
It's true. It's there's that big temptation, right, to fight fire with fire, but when you fight fire with fire you just make more fire. So you have to fight fire with water. And so it's like, "Okay, this is This is how she I don't know." You did not fight fire with oil or grease. It's so weird. You heard it here first, guys. You also can't fight fire by just running away from it. No, cuz then you make wind and wind makes more fire.
This is Wow, I got like a chemistry lesson in here. We got we got deep right there. Uh but not too deep. Hey. Hey. Yeah, podcast. She has a podcast. Uh so I want to end on this. If your friendship were a girl group, which one would it be?
I mean, Spice Girls.
Okay. Fifth Harmony or Destiny's Child?
Spice Girls. That was my first choice before there were choices, but now that there are choices I'm like, "What if we're a supergroup?" Like all of them combined.
All of them combined. Yeah. Because we're kind of chaotic. I don't know. We're not really that uniform. I love wearing shorts, so I'm the Michelle no matter what. I think it would be very hard for me to be in our friend group if our friend group was all Fifth Harmony and Destiny's Child. But can you imagine that Super Bowl half-time show?
Yeah, but Well, there's three of us on this couch. So we just say Destiny's Child because now I'm going to I I've decided to insert myself into your girl group. I feel like you need an ethnic one.
Yeah. Yes. We need diversity big time. Yeah. We need diversity. And I have blue hair, so you know. You're number one. You can be Beyoncé. I'll be Kelly Rowland. Okay. And I'm Michelle, but that it's okay. I'm here. That's Michelle's tag line I think in life. Hashtag we're here. Yeah.
