Starting point is 00:00:00 Live from New York City, it's our entertainment correspondent, Nicole Ryan. Hello! Hello. I always wanted to ask you, what's your favorite New York-themed song? Because there's some bangers out there. New York Minutes are Goodie. Taylor Swift, welcome to New York. I was going to say probably.
Starting point is 00:00:19 Or maybe even like super old school like Frank Sinatra, New York. New York is a great one. Jay-Z, obviously Alicia Keys is one. But you get that quite a lot. Like going to New York and Times Square, there's a lot of people, that you get to do the 360 photo thing with people and it's just on loop for like again and again and again right yeah so it starts to make you go a little crazy but yeah there's so many good ones you're not wrong uh I said how many songs are about New York they reckon hundreds 10 to000 thousands sung about the city of New York that are
Starting point is 00:00:48 that are fully about New York or like New York City or just like mention mention right like a New York City drop yeah probably probably a shout out you're right there's no not many songs about New Zealand Tell you that much No You should write one I mean we've got the national anthem I know Which is God a lot too
Starting point is 00:01:07 We have our anthem We have our anthem Help us out here Help us out here God God God do something Please help us Hey can we talk about movies Nicole
Starting point is 00:01:19 Big couple of movies Over the last seven days Michael Jackson Let's start with that one The biopic that feels like All the critics are like But all the other All the fans seem to be loving it.
Starting point is 00:01:31 I think, listen, his story has been told in so many different ways. Like documentaries and, like, TV shows, and they've done so many renditions of it. And I just feel like it's all sort of, like, mushed together and all sort of gotten, like, a little bit diluted. I think a lot of the critics are probably talking to, like, their family. And I know their family probably is, like, done with this story being, and I'm air quoting, again, told, right? Like, no one, I feel like they probably feel like nobody actually knows the true story. I did see the Michael Jackson story on Broadway. There's one here in New York City that I highly suggest.
Starting point is 00:02:01 It is so well done. It is so incredible. I dance. I cried. I laughed. It was so good. So if you got a chance to come see that in New York City, you should. But I've not seen the movie yet.
Starting point is 00:02:09 I saw someone online saying it should have been a thriller. Then Michael Jackson would have been wrong genre. And I was like, that's good. That's good. So maybe that would surprise to people. It was an intense thriller. That one tickled me a lot. If they told the real, real story, I bet it would be.
Starting point is 00:02:25 A bit of a thrill-in. Do they cover off that part? No, I don't think they get that fast. So I either lead you to believe there's a second movie or they've just chosen to end it where they end it, right? Yeah, yeah, I'm sure they've just chosen. I don't think they're going to be able to get the rates to continue on. And they all lived happily ever after the end.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Nothing to see here. Okay, the other movie I want to check your way, Devil Wears Prada too, which was, of course, filmed in the same building that you work in. Yes. So excited. I can't even tell you. I feel like it's going to be fantastic. Even though you're a pissy that they were in your building.
Starting point is 00:03:01 I mean, all they had to do is ask if I wanted to be an extra, and I would have gladly said yes, but they did it, and I'm bitter a little bit. When they're in your building, you could see Merrill Hathaway's Tootchy. Yeah. See them all. Yeah, we've had Anne Hathaway and we've had Tucci, who's lovely. But yeah, there was a lot of, like, they were running out of our revolving doors,
Starting point is 00:03:22 which is not easy to run through, and they had to stop a bunch but they kept holding us back like in my elevator bank to not let us go out because they were in the middle shooting things which was in a way. I feel like you're at the mercy
Starting point is 00:03:32 of the revolving door, aren't you? You can't make a revolving, yeah. You're not pushing the revolving door fast than it needs to go. Any faster, no. You love a revolving door, don't you? And New York. Don't you?
Starting point is 00:03:43 We do love a revolving door and you know that like, fun fact, I have a terrible, terrible fear of revolving doors and I have to use it every single day. I have gotten really almost badly hurt in a rolling dwarf because somebody tried to squeeze in when I was in and it kind of got stuck and then I got, it was a whole thing. But like, they're not, they're like really not, they're like asking for an accident.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Like, they're asking for someone to get hurt or get a foot caught or a bag caught. And everyone's always trying to like squeeze in or make it go a little faster. Like you said, you're at the mercy of it. It doesn't go that much faster. Yeah, it's asking for problems. It's weather related, right? That's the reason. Isn't that why they have them?
Starting point is 00:04:18 So it doesn't, they're in the draft? Out of all the door systems, it's certainly the most confused. There might be another one somewhere. It really is. Yeah. But they're... Call us now. Let us know if you've been through a revolving door.
Starting point is 00:04:30 You know we're going to do it. I love this revolving door chat, but I did want to ask what Anne Hithway was like. Because she gets a lot of hate. When she was there, she was very, very sweet. She knows how to turn it on. I think she gets a little bit like that when fans are around. Like you remember the infamous video of her, like, in Italy. And she's like, calma, calma.
Starting point is 00:04:47 And it's like very condescending the way that she speaks to them. And it must be annoying to have, like, all the, like, bombarded by fans. I get that. She knew how to turn it on. She was very charming. She was very lovely and sweet when we talked to her. Okay. That was a good answer.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Yeah, I don't know what to take away from that. Just trying to be, I'm media trained as she is. Jono Ben and Megan. The podcast. The Hats. Live from New York City. It's our entertainment correspondent, Nicole Ryan. Good morning, Nicole, big news.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Harry Stiles and Zoe Krabbits are apparently engaged. I know. Either of them are confirming it. Everyone seems to be confirming it for them. I did see it a close-up paparazzi picture of her ring. I mean, if that's not an engagement ring, I don't know what is. Was it just a huge rock?
Starting point is 00:05:34 Oh, it's so beautiful. It's like, it's almost like an oval. It's like a square, but it's got rounded edges. So whatever that is. Like a cushion or a- Perfection. It's so large. It's just, I just would love to just put it on for a second.
Starting point is 00:05:48 Just a second. Do you know what I love about Harry? Is that he's always had a penchant for older women and Zoe, I mean, she's only five years older. Yes, but I love that he plays in that field. Yeah, well, Megan's got a penchant
Starting point is 00:06:02 for younger guys, so you... My husband and Harry Stowe's born pretty much on the same day. Same year. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Both in boy bands. He was. He was in a boy band. That's how he, yeah, he was back in the day. We'll send you some clips as well.
Starting point is 00:06:18 I'm dad. I'm dad. I'm deceased. Yeah. What do you say, diseased or disease? Ceased, I think, not disease. A disease. No, no. I am six feet under. I'm hearing, though, are you hearing the same thing that it happened fast?
Starting point is 00:06:38 Because they've only been dating eight months from what we know and that it's happening fast because he wants kids. Is Lenny Kravitz? He wouldn't be paying for the wedding. Harry feels like Harry Stiles could probably cover that one, right? But imagine. I'm pretty sure Lenny Kravitz. it's good too though yeah that's right imagine having to ask lennie well you don't have to but like ask lenny for permission to marry your daughter oh he'd be chill as it feels to be the chillest honestly how
Starting point is 00:07:04 for her like anyone she marries is never going to be quite as hot as her dad and of course like she's not gonna she can't say that her dad like her dad like i don't know the man looks so incredible for that age like it's unreal yeah and i think that i heard that he very much likes harry love it her she's like Sorry, you're not as hot as my dad, but I'll have to... Yes, I guess you'll do. Now, was she once married to Mamoa, or am I imagining things? No. No.
Starting point is 00:07:34 You're getting confused with... Was with her mom. Lisa Bonnet. Sorry, yeah, I am being confused with her mom. So Lisa Bonnet and Lenny Kravitz are her parents, but then Lisa Boenay also dated Jason Momoa for a minute. Yeah, that's what it is. And they've got children together.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Correct. Okay. All these beautiful people in all. Hollywood just make them all beautiful people aren't they dozy dowing you don't want to be the Igo in that family yeah geez what happened you're oh yeah I can't marry into the Kravitz dynasty can I to be fair though it's probably it might not be Harry that's pushing for the babies he's 32 but Zoe is 37 so you know like not being rude I don't know it's going to be a
Starting point is 00:08:18 geriatric pregnancy yeah I know which is crazy if you're over 35 do they call it geriatric. I mean, they really need to change that. But then, like, now that you see that, that makes sense. Well, doesn't make sense, but it just makes me think. Like, because he has, like, Olivia Wild. And, like, women that were much older than him that he's dated. If he really did want kids, that would not necessarily be the way to go.
Starting point is 00:08:38 So I don't know. But maybe they'll pop them out fast. Who knows? He does seem like an old soul. Yeah, he does. Doesn't he? He does. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Absolutely. Nicole, we always love catching out with you.
