Great understudy standing by. Hows it going, guillermo . Guillermo im doing good. Youre doing a wonderful job. Ah, guillermo, you tease. Ive always wanted to know, whats your favorite broadway show . Guillermo aladdin. Well guillermo, you aint never had a friend like me just kidding you probably have many dear friends. Im sorry if i made assumptions. Broadway, sadly, is closed at least through the end of the year. Theres no shows, the tony awards were postponed. Which is a shame because thats where most gay highschoolers get their yearbook quotes. Some kids quote gandhi or abraham lincoln. I quoted alice ripleys winning speech for best actress in next to normal Musical Theatre is a fine art and to all you parents of theater kids out there, if youre going on a road trip this summer and they want to blast the original cast recording of spring awakening repeatedly, please just let them have it. I even wrote my College Admissions essay about spring awakening, so maybe itll encourage them to pursue Higher Education also i dropped out after 7 weeks. So actually never mind. I love doing film and tv, but i so painfully miss live theater, you know . Theres nothing like it. Theres no substitute for the feeling of pouring your heart out to the point of exhaustion while an eighty yearold woman opens a werthers original for 12 minutes. Or singing a softly heartbreaking ballad only to be interrupted by a ringtone version of who let the dogs out . As a man receives a call. That said, senator romney, it was an honor to have you at the show broadway will be back, eventually. Theatre, especially Musical Theatre, is a vital american art form. Itll be weird to go to a theater again at first. But im actually excited for all the new shows that will come out of this challenging time. Well have all kinds of new musicals. Like, dont kiss me, kate. No company how to succeed in business without having to go to your office. And patti lupone as, covita dont cry for me argentina, your tears are contagious droplets. Oh, this is an alarming fact i just learned. You know who might pose one of the greatest dangers during this pandemic . Friggin me. They say that singers, can be superspreaders of the virus. Because when you sing, you are breathing so deeply and in some cases you even expel saliva or mucus. And by you i mean me. Ive been known to shower audiences with both love and liquid. These are real tweets from real people who have seen me perform. Sat front row at dearevanhansen and ive never seen anyone spit as much as bensplatt did today cant believe its been a year since i saw bensplatt s spit and boogers flying all over the deh stage. Seeing book of mormon from the front row. bensplatt just spit on me. It was awesome. Bom im so close to the stage that bensplatts spit is basically raining on me and im so okay with this im never showering i swear sure, i may be spreading the virus, but im also spreading joy, and isnt that what counts . Oh and im being told that is not at all what counts. In all seriousness, the arts need funding now more than ever before. So many of my friends and colleagues in the Theatre Community and beyond are struggling. If you happen to have the means, there are so many worthy organizations to donate to, like the actors fund or black theatre united. Like everyone, ive been hunkered down at home over the past few months but ive been keeping busy. Our Second Season of the politician came out on netflix, as did my own solo concert special from radio city musical hall. But mostly ive been watching drag race. I love you shea coulee between episodes however, in the depths of quarantine, i did dive deep into a new project that is very, very close to my heart. You guessed it, its my second album no piece of art has ever been more personal to my being. In fact, i only agreed to host this show if theyd agree to play the following commercial. Take a look this is my turkey sandwich, so its not like a personal attack. Hey, you know were really going to want to remember this time. So i spent my quarantine digging deep and putting together musical time capsules or an album. Im calling it quarantunes. Its the perfect sound track for the new normal, chockfull of instant classics, like poison. I brush my teeth i gargle liis treen my tongue and gums are Sparkling Clean i cant explain it i want to scream and shout why does the world hate my mouth oh, oh, oh, oh, why does my breath smell like poison inside my mask its not a question thought id ask go to the graveyard i smell it all day i cant get away im just thankful no one else can smell the decay actually, we can.

They collaborated on a new single called bodies music from muna the knocks is on the way. Tomorrow night, ill be back in my bunker but Anthony Anderson will be back to host with guests yara shahidi and cori bush. Like oprah, beyonce and jesus, my guest tonight is so talented she cant possibly be bothered with a last name. Shes currently nominated for her first ever emmy for her role in the hit hbo show euphoria, you know, you just cant be mad at me for wanting you to be okay, you can say im being anxious, you know . Just, it hurts my heart too much. And just, just youre the best thing thats happened to me in a long time, so please just dont be mad at me. Please welcome zendaya hey. How are you . Im good, how are you . Im doing good. You look gorgeous as always. I have to dive in and ask what im most excited about, your emmy nomination is incredibly welldeserved. And i just got to know, how did you find out . What was the sich . I got a call from sam, our creator. And it was funny, because i dont know about anybody else, but in quarantine, my sleep pattern has been like really off. I wake up at like, like 2 00ish. Know what i mean . Its bad. He knows i dont wake up until late. So he doesnt even try to call me until late. And he called me like 8 45 a. M. , and im like, [ bleep ], something bad must have happened or maybe hes telling me something about euphoria or something stressful or whatever. So i answer the call, and hes like, yo, z, you got nominated. Im like, what . Hes like, you got nominated. I was, like, what . Go call your mama. And he was crying on the phone. And then i called my mom. She was already crying. She already knew. I was overcome with all the emotion. So i genuinely was like, im just going to go back to sleep for a while and handle this when i get up. I cant, it was a lot. You went back to bed . Yeah. I feel like i would be too jazzed. I was too nervous and excited to, like, take it all in, im just going to shut down and go to sleep for a little bit. And hopefully, this will still be a real thing when i wake up. Im with you on the sleeping late. Im used to the evan hanson lifestyle of sleeping from 2 00 to 2 00 and starting in the afternoon. Right. Yeah. How are you feeling about the whole virtual emmies of it all . I know its not what we would usually get. We all want to see you in your gorgeous look, so were going to see from you home, i would imagine. I hope, i dont want, i want to dress up. I do want to dress up. I still want to have the experience. It will probably just be my family over here, but i definitely want to pull a look and maybe just walk my living room carpet. But, you know, its different, for sure. But im grateful either way, so. Amazing. I personally look forward to seeing your living room look very much. Thank you, thank you. As a huge fan of euphoria, i have to ask, whats up with season two, i know a lot of things have been pushed due safety. Wondering how youre feeling about that, and what the plans might be. Obviously, we headed into season two, and we had done, you know, table reads, and wardrobe fittings and all kinds of things, and then obviously everything happened and we got shut down, literally about two days before we were about to start our first day of shooting. So, you know, that was a bummer, but were kind of trying to figure out, you know, how to, you know, eventually be able to create a season two that were all really proud of and get all the best out of it that we want, but also still being very safe. So we might end up doing like the Little Bridge episode. I dont really know how to describe it but maybe like an episode that will kind of, we can do with a limited amount of people in a safer environment. Sure. That can kind of, i dont know, give people something. We all miss euphoria, as the people who created it, too. And give everyone a Little Something so that, you know, we have something to live on until we are able to go into a season two. But i am very excited, whenever it does happen, it will happen, and then just, you know, just waitin like the rest of us, you know. Of course, you have a really beautiful attitude about it, and i, for one, am really excited to hear about that bridge episode to whet our appetites, because i binged it way too early. Youve also made a film with sam during this quarantine, like a little mini film. Which is so incredible. Im wondering how that went down and how you guys kept safe. Yeah, there was a lot of protocols, a lot of things i think we did just as much as possible to make sure it was safe, and we shot it in, we all quarantined together, obviously, we got tested and quarantined together. There was a lot of Safety Measures that were taken, consulting doctors and things like that. And, you know, it was a very, very small crew of people that most of them worked on euphoria as well. And it was just like, it was fun, because it was, like, my, i was my hair, i was my makeup, i was my wardrobe. I was, brought my clothes, so it was fun in that way of just trying to make it work with a very small amount of people, but we all quarantined together and stayed in our bubble so we really werent in the outside world at all. We werent really allowed to leave at all, to keep it safe. Thats incredible. Yeah, but it was a beautiful experience and, you know, well see what happens. Yeah, sounds like down the line, if were talking nominations for makeup and hair and costumes and set dec is all for you, so im down. No, it was fun. A lot to think about in a good way, so. Beautiful. Well, im getting the sad message that i have to wrap up. But i would love to talk to you forever and ever. Thank you so much for doing this with me, zendaya. For everybody out there, euphoria is available on hbo and to stream on hbo max. Well be right back with music from muna and the knocks. Thank, you thank you, zendaya, youre the best.

People are being prosecuted in california for similar offenses. Tonight House Speaker nancy pelosi is under fire for getting a shampoo and blow dry at a San Francisco hair salon. The problem, salons arent open for indoor business in San Francisco. Abc 7 reporter j. R. Stone is live from union street where Speaker Pelosi had that appointment. Reporter yeah, this is obviously Nancy Pelosis district, but a number of people i talked with in this neighborhood say that doesnt matter to them. They want to know why if nancy pelosi can get an appointment here at this salon, why cant they . It feels almost like a slap in the face. Reporter salon owner priscilla is referring to nancy pelosi getting her hair done inside this salon at a time that is illegal in San Francisco. I feel like if she thought it was safe to be indoors getting her hair done with her mask down maybe it is actually safe, maybe we
