[~Kitty]

I'm curious about her love life. But I'm glad it's private and not plastered all over the media like almost every other celebrity's private life is. And I'm glad she doesn't feel she needs 'attention' by bragging about who she is dating.

[SamiJoe]

I heard somewhere that she does have a boyfriend(can't remember where), but I don't know if I'd trust it. It must be hard keeping a relationship a secret, espescially when you're famous. I like that she doesn't brag about it. In a lot of ways, she's not like what you'd expect to see in a actress. She seems nice and a lot like Lorelai, which in my book is great!

[~Kitty]

I think it's great that she keeps things private. I'm curious, but it's cool. I don't see how anyone as beautiful and great as she is being single.. but that's just me!

Old Kilborn interview. I'm still doing the recent Conan interview. Yep, taking my time!


Late, Late Show with Craig Kilborn April 27, 2001


Craig
They tell me, I just got warned, that Lauren Graham is mad at me, is upset with me. I'm listening.

Lauren
Umm, Craig, umm, I feel that I am developing a complex, and I feel it's because of you.

Craig
What happened?

Lauren
Well, I did the show, umm, you know a while ago, remember?

Craig
Yeah.

Lauren
No you don't!

Craig
OK

Lauren
And umm.

Craig

Lauren
And well I thought it was great.

Craig
You did, it was great.

Lauren

Craig
Who was nominated ?

Lauren
We weren't nominated.

Craig
OK

Lauren
I wasn't either. But we were there and guess what you said to me?

Craig
What did I say?

Lauren
Nothing!

Craig
Ooh.... What was I doing?

Lauren
You were with two.

Craig
Was I drinky, drink?

Lauren
I don't know, you seemed OK.

Craig
I was drinky, drinky, maybe.

Lauren
You were.He's already saying he was drunk.

Craig
I don't know, if I didn't say hi to you then something was. Was I in conversation with someone else?

Lauren
Yes!

Craig
OK

Lauren
Two people. Babe number one and babe number two and I don't know if they were strippers. I'm not sure. But ummm.

Craig
Wait, excuse me, I went to the Golden Globes with my sisters.

Lauren
No you didn't!

Craig
Excuse me! And, and my sisters haven't stripped for five years...so knock it off.

Lauren
You were with the hottest girls, and ummm, so I thought I looked OK, whatever. And you didn't even talk to me at all at all !

Craig
This was the Golden Globes? That's what it was?

Lauren
Golden Globes.

Craig: OK.

Lauren
OK. Then, worst yet, the TV Guide Awards, that you were the host of, everyone saw it!

Craig
Right, yeah

Lauren
Umm, and I was a presenter, and I came off stage and we had the following exchange
"Hey"
"Hey"
"How you doing"
"Good"
"You're doing a great job"
"Thanks"
Craig
OK tell me, there were no strippers

Lauren
No.

Craig
OK, that's good.

Lauren
I don't think you were so drunk that.

Craig
I was probably focused, I was hosting. I was a little drunk that night. I was hosting, I apologize.

Lauren
No, it’s ok, because what I thought was going to happen... I had a love connection at the TV Guide Awards, and you would have been so redeemed, ummm and then I could have come on and said Hey you were sort of cool, but then I met this guy and let me just tell you, don't get involved with a famous guy, because they don't call They don't write. I had the most, I had the most crazy, magnetic.

Craig
By the way, you're unloading a lot tonight. You are really unloading right now.

Lauren
I'm upset, I'm upset and you stopped going to therapy with me, so I just feel like we should work it out, here.

Craig
You don't want to say who you met? You met some guy.

Lauren
No. Why would I?

Craig
I know who was there.

Lauren
Who?

Craig
Dennis Franz was there that night, and he's married, I don't know who else was there. Rod Stewart. Rod Stewart was there that night, huh?

Lauren
It was not Rod Stewart. I don't think I should say who it was...

Craig
OK, OK whisper it in my ear.

Lauren
If I'm going to tell you, then I'm going to tell the nice people.

Craig
Ok tell the nice people.

Lauren
ummm... I just feel a little vulnerable about it because..

Craig
Did you guys go out?

Lauren
No! He didn't call me! He was like " I...I....I... all I'm going to talk about is that I met you and do..."

Craig
So he got your number, and he didn't call you?

Lauren
Yes! Yes! So thanks for nothing Martin Mull.

Craig
That's a joke. He's my buddy

Lauren
I know, I know.

Craig
He's happily married. It's a joke.

Lauren
Aah, whatever I'm here to start rumors and scandal.

Craig
Why did you color you hair? Is it for a part? Is it for a role?

Lauren
It's for a film project, Craig, umm, that I feel, I feel, good about.

Craig
All right, and good sentence, good sentence right there.

Lauren
Thank you.

Craig
OK, so you have a new role?

Lauren
Yes. I'm doing a movie with, umm, Justin Timberlake, of N Sync.

Craig
You. Is this something, something you want to admit publicly?

Lauren
And it's a, a spy caper and he plays a guy in a band. Umm, and the thing is he is my., he is the person I am dating him so I.

Craig
In the movie or in real life?

Lauren
In real life! Really.

Craig
In the movie you are dating him, right?

Lauren
And in real life, that's why I'm doing the movie.

Craig
OK how much of this is true?

Lauren
Craig. Craig. I dyed my hair for no reason.

Craig
OK, you made that up. She made it up everybody.

Lauren
They're still shocked. They’re not sure. They're like but what about the .... oh but this is what the move is called, do you want to hear what the move is called?

Craig
The fake movie? Yeah, I want to know the fake movie.

Lauren
‘Cause we're spies. Nothing makes me laugh harder than this move, by the way. Don’t you think it's funny?

Craig
OK, go ahead, this is good.

Lauren
It's called. NSecret. Because we're spiesz. You get it ?


Craig
Give her a courtesy laugh, people.

Lauren
I got a courtesy laugh. Wouldn't it be great if I was doing that though. But it would be like a spy caper, but I'm like trying to get in the band, but they won’t let me in the band. So I'm like managing the band.

Craig
You know what, Lauren.

Lauren
What.

Craig
I'm actually proud I didn't say hi to you at those places.
I'm kidding. Hey, we’re out of time girlfriend. Great to see you again.

Lauren
Good to see you too.

Craig
And I will say hi to you in public when I see you next time

Lauren
Yes you will.

Craig
Big hand for Lauren Graham everybody.

[~Kitty]

Lauren on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on November 8,2000

CONAN: My next guest is the star of the critically acclaimed new television series called Gilmore Girls on the WB. Please welcome the lovely Lauren Graham.

(applause)

CONAN: You're quite tall.

LAUREN: Hey, I am very tall.

CONAN: You're -- How tall are you?

LAUREN: Well I'm 5'9", Conan.

CONAN: Mm. Perfect.

LAUREN: How tall are you -- ooh!

CONAN: Yeah, it's Creepy Conan.

LAUREN: I'm also Irish-Catholic just like you are.

CONAN: Are you seriously?

LAUREN: Yep.

CONAN: You know that's funny because everybody knows because of my name and also because of the red hair and the freckles -- people just know -- that I'm Irish. They just know. I would think -- you don't have that traditional Irish look.

LAUREN: I'm what's known as Black Irish which I think had something to do with the Spanish Armada. Something. You're the authentic Irish. You're like so Irish you're like the forgotten people. The red-headed, freckled --

CONAN: Yes

LAUREN: Do you know what I mean?

CONAN: I'm like the cliched Irish. There aren't that many of us.

LAUREN: Well think of the famous redheads throughout history.

CONAN: Opie. (laughter)

LAUREN: Exactly. Um...Lucy, Lucy.

CONAN: The only two I can think of were on "Happy Days."

LAUREN: Lucy.

CONAN: Lucy. A fake redhead.

LAUREN: Exactly. But then there's you and you really have to -- I just feel for you and your people. You have to carry the weight of your -- (laughter)

CONAN: You know, yeah. Why do you feel for me?

LAUREN: Because don't you feel the pressure? Don't you feel the pressure of being, like, the most famous redhead?

CONAN: I don't think I'm "the most famous redhead."

LAUREN: I think you are!

CONAN: Remember we've learned tonight that I'm on at 12:30 at night. That's what Regis taught us.

LAUREN: I'm on at 8:00 opposite "Friends" so together we'll make sweet, sweet music. (laughter)

CONAN: Oh yeah! Your show! You have this new show and today they gave me this whole dossier and I'm reading. The critics really like this show, they say it's smart, it's funny, and then they put it opposite "Friends." How does that feel?

LAUREN: Um -- that piece of crap? It's going down! (laughter and applause) Right! Right!

CONAN: Wow! That was so convincing. I bet they're all trembling over there.

LAUREN: Yeah. It's, you know, it's bad. But some day things'll be better.

CONAN: All you do is control what you control, right?

LAUREN: That is so true.

CONAN: I believe that. I believe in that kind of zen. Worry about your own golf swing. Don't worry about that guy's ice skates. You know what I'm saying? (laughter)

LAUREN: Yeah. (laughter)

CONAN: So! Uh -- Regis rattled me, man. He just rattled me.

LAUREN: Did he? 'Cause he's so loud. And he's Irish too. (laughter) It's Irish night.

CONAN: Yes.

LAUREN: You didn't know but it is.

CONAN: That's how I book the show now. I pretty much pull up in a van at an Irish pub. "Come on in here! Aaaargh! Aaaargh!" (laughter)

CONAN: Now, you used to -- of course we do this show in New York City -- you're here visiting. You used to live here.

LAUREN: Yes, yes.

CONAN: Is that where you started out -- in Manhattan?

LAUREN: I started acting here. I had my first paying job. I went to college here and everything. I graduated and I got an agent and I had -- and they called me. They said we have a paying job for you. It's so exciting. And they were like -- because -- it's exciting because you fit the costume!

CONAN: The old Johnny Bravo syndrome on "The Brady Bunch." You fit the costume.

LAUREN: You're like the second person who's said that to me. And so what it was, Conan, was that I was hired to be the World Cup soccer mascot. Striker, that was his name.

CONAN: The World Cup has a soccer mascot?

LAUREN: Whatever. They did then. (laughter)

CONAN: Let me guess. You're the reason they don't anymore. (laughter)

LAUREN: Probably.

CONAN: What -- who is Striker? What kind of animal is Striker?

LAUREN: Well, Conan, Striker is a friendly, lovable dog.

CONAN: Soccer and dogs? I don't get the connection?

LAUREN: I don't either. Because dogs love balls? (laughter and applause)

(Conan reaches under his desk and pulls out a book.)

CONAN: If you're going to talk that way I'm going to read my Regis Philbin book. (laughter)

LAUREN: No, no, wait. 'Cause there's more.

CONAN: Oh yeah? Okay. There's more. Alright so --

LAUREN: Yeah. So the theing is I'm trying to be a good actor but I'm thinking I wear a costume but I still am playing a character so I wear the costume and people are really mean.

CONAN: How big is the costume?

LAUREN: It's a head. It's like a big papier-mache head and very sweaty.

CONAN: Like the one we just had out here?

LAUREN: Yes, yes, like that. Yes, it's like that. But you didn't wear that did you?

CONAN: What, the Conan one?

LAUREN: Your own Conan head?

CONAN: I do at night, yeah. (laughter)

LAUREN: Well. So it was very, very uncomfortable -- people hate characters and unless you're at Disneyland people look down on you and they would come up and knock on my head and, like, talk through my nose.

CONAN: Oh, that's so rude. They would really bang on the head?

LAUREN: Yes. They would be like "are you a girl dog or a boy dog?" They wre awful. And then -- but then to add insult to injury they would want to talke their picture with me and I realized like seven hours into the twenty hour day that everytime somebody went to take their picture of me, I would smile. (laughter)

CONAN: You would smile inside the head?

LAUREN: I would smile inside the head.

CONAN: Oh that's so sad. And no one could see.

LAUREN: And no one could see and so by the end of the day I was so angry I would just frown.

CONAN: Yeah that'll show them! (laughter)

LAUREN: That'll show them, yeah.

CONAN: That picture where my giant head is smiling -- I'm frowning inside.

LAUREN: I was mad! Yeah. That was my first job.

CONAN: That is so sad.

LAUREN: I know. It is sad.

CONAN: Well now things are going great.

LAUREN: Yeah.

CONAN: You start low, you work your way up.

LAUREN: That's right.

CONAN: The opposite of how I'm doing it. Gilmore Girls is on Thursday nights --

LAUREN: Yes.

CONAN: At 8:00 on the WB and people really like the show.

LAUREN: Yes they do.

CONAN: So check it out.

LAUREN: Alright. I do already. But you should.

CONAN: During a commercial of "Friends."

LAUREN: Yeah.

CONAN: Lauren, thanks for being here.

LAUREN: Thank you.

CONAN: Lauren Graham, everybody.

[SamiJoe]

Thank you! I love that you're here to do these transcripts, especially the ones I haven't seen.

[~Kitty]

you're welcome! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I'm now getting my own computer! Yes, after years of Kevin telling me he'll build me one.. it's actually happening! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] We bought the case and all the parts.. we're still looking for the tv card.. Kevin is a perfectionist when it comes to computers. I keep saying I want one that isn't expensive and he keeps saying he doesn't want to put anything cheap in my system. So, in the next few weeks it should be done..then I can do more with transcripts and stuff. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

[SamiJoe]

Oh, congrats on getting your own computer, Kitty! (It reminded me of Dean's car for Rory. Sorry. I don't know if you're a Narc.)

[One Cold Canadian]

I know someone has probably already mentioned this, but for anyone that missed Lauren's recent Kilborn appearance, it is set to reair on the 31st.

(We 12/31: Lauren Graham, Richie Sambora, Puddle of Mudd)

[SamiJoe]

Which one was that? I can never remember and so I need some kind of quote from it. Thanks for the info.

[A. B. Normal]

Pretty sure it's this one SamiJoe.

[SamiJoe]

Oh, I think I remember that one. Thanks.

[~Kitty]

That has to be my favorite interview. I can't wait until she goes on Kilborn again.. hopefully we don't have to wait almost a year again!

[Cherié £u£u]
