Yesterday Michael and Scarlett hit the Stern show to promote their film Don Jon they did together. But of course the interview spanned a range of topics including:
-Their engagement on Kimmel and why Michael chose to do it that way
-How annoyed he is at celebrities like Andrew Garfield who get pissed when people ask about their relationship when everyone knows they are together
-Their new romantic comedy Don Jon and what it says about relationships today
-Scarlett discusses her Marilyn Monroe tattoo and admiration for both the late actress as well as Angelina Jolie, but says she is not obsessed with her despite what some people say
-Scarlett's brother's suicide and self cutting
-How they went from co-stars with zero chemistry to madly in love
-The fact they try not to have sex too often, so they can miss each other & not be too routine
-When they plan to get married and raising his son London
-Michael thinks James Franco has gotten "a bit weird" and they rarely speak anymore
-Alex Pettyfer (one of his Don Jon co-stars) is his new best friend
-Why Michael is not upset about his hero Gary Oldman's recent controversial comments
-Why he feels if young men got laid more there would be less mass shootings
-His excitement for Lost In The Wilderness and working with Daniel Day Lewis in that film
-Chants of Reign will not do a tour for The Last Romantic Left album because "it's music for the bedroom not a stadium"
-Scarlett's thoughts on Chants of Reign's "So Wilde" song (which is about Olivia Wilde)
-Michael feeling him being a Taurus draws him to Scorpio women (with two Scorpios in Kristen Bell and Scarlett being his longest and most meaningful relationships)
HS: Here he is! My favorite actor. Michael Reese Meyers.
MRM: Thank you. Thanks for having me.
HS: Love you man. Take a seat. Alot to talk about with you. Alot going on.
MRM: Really? Anything new happen recently?
HS: Haha, oh stop pretending. You're engaged!??
MRM: Yea man. Took the plunge.
HS: Now let me understand this, you been dating Scarlett for what a year now?
MRM: Yea.
HS: And you're ready to do this?
MRM: I'm in love. She's the one.
HS: Wow.
Robin: Congratulations.
MRM: Thank you.
HS: Hey man I can't blame ya. Scarlett is a piece of work boy I tell ya. I'd be in love too.
MRM: She's not bad.
HS: And you did it live on the air. What balls. She could have said no.
MRM: Yea, haha, that's always a risk. But I had a feeling she'd say yes. We been talking about it so...
HS: About marriage?
MRM: Yea. It's something we both want. She was married before, so...
HS: Yea, to Ryan Gosling right?
MRM: Haha, no. Ryan Reynolds.
Robin: The OTHER Ryan.
HS: Oh right right. Sorry. But why on TV?
MRM: I wanted it to be big. I wanted it to be special. I wanted the world to see it. I wanted it to get people talking. I wanted the world to see this moment. How much I love her. What can I say? I'm a romantic guy. And great love, great romance requires grand gestures. I wanted something grand.
Robin: Her reaction was priceless, she kept asking you 'are you serious?'
MRM: Yea haha.
HS: Yea she was mouthing something. I couldn't tell what.
MRM: She had no idea if it was a bit or if it was real. I had to say to her at least 2 or 3 times 'i'm serious, i'm serious' haha. Once she looked back at Jimmy then looked at me and saw it was real I think it finally sunk in with her this was really happening.
HS: Man oh man. What a move. And what did you guys do after that, go back to the hotel and bang like crazy for 5 hours?
MRM: Haha, a gentleman never tells.
HS: Well you're not a gentleman. Come on what is that? You're not gonna tell me. You're gonna become one of those celebrities who doesn't talk about stuff?
MRM: Oh no. I hate those types. Like Andrew Garfield. Awesome actor. Seems like a cool guy. But I see him just blow up on people when they ask about him about Emma Stone and I'm like really dude? Really? We all KNOW you are together. We see pictures of you kissing everyday. Yet you wanna act like it's some big intrusion to your privacy to just ADMIT you are in love and happy with an awesome girl. Like I just don't get it. I'm proud to say I'm with Scarlett. I don't think that jinxes anything or let's people into something that isn't there business. It's just so stupid to me some people act like that. But that's just me I guess. Like I said, I like the guy as an actor, really do, he's my favorite Spider Man, loved him in Social Network, but he really needs to get over himself.
HS: I know.
MRM: What he doesn't realize is he brings MORE attention to it by denying it all the time. If he would just cop to it people would let it go. The press are like vultures man. Once they know something is a sore point or a secret, they poke and they poke until you break. The more you deny it the more they wanna bring it out of you. The smart play is to just be open about it and they have nothing to talk about. It's not a story anymore. So hopefully, one day he'll grow up and realize that. You can't play that game forever. What? 10 years from now they will be married with a kid and some interviewer is gonna say 'so how's the wife and kids?' and he says 'what wife? what kids? I don't know what you're talking about'
HS: Yea it's silly.
MRM: Like come on bro. You're not fooling anybody. We're not stupid. WE KNOW YOU ARE DATING! It's cute when it's the early stages of a relationship and you don't know where it's gonna go, it's only been a month or even less and the press has seen you out and wanna confirm things and you don't wanna talk about it of course because it's too soon to know if there's even anything worth talking about. I get that. But after YEARS of dating? Now you're just being a dick who thinks he can tell the press what they can and can't ask you about. And I've never been that way. No matter what, you will never hear me or my publicist tell an interviewer what they can or can't ask me. I have nothing to hide. And it's not like they are asking you something inappropriate like "do you cum on her face" or "what's your favorite position". They just say "we saw you and your girlfriend out at some coffee shop, how was the coffee." One of the things you give up with this job is privacy and anonymity. Between the paparazzi and the internet, there's no such thing anymore. You can't hide anything so it's best to just embrace it. If you can't handle that, you picked the wrong line of work. Sorry I didn't mean to go off on a tangent there, haha.
HS: No you're absolutely right. I agree, I hate when celebrities do that and he's not the only one.
MRM: Yea it's a trend now.
HS: So why can't you answer my question about how you and her celebrated after the proposal?
MRM: Well honestly afterwards, we had to get the ring re-adjusted. Ya see, because when you want the proposal to be a surprise, you have to do everything on your own. Go buy the ring, guess what size to get, how the diamond should be cut. If you ask her how she wants those things, it gives it away that you are about to ask. So for it to be a TOTAL surprise you just gotta guess and then after the proposal you go back to the jeweler and get the ring re-done so it's to her liking. So the first ring is just the proposal ring, but you then go back and get it adjusted to the ring she will ACTUALLY be wearing, but it's all apart of the process, like I said, if you really wanna shock her, which I wanted to do. So that's what we did afterwards. It didn't even fit her finger, it kept falling off, haha.
HS: And THEN you banged for 5 hours in the hotel!
MRM: I can't say, haha.
HS: Why not?
MRM: Look, I would but she's here and I know SHE wouldn't wanna talk about that so I just wanna respect HER on that ya know?
HS: Oh she's HERE?
Robin: Yea I saw her outside.
MRM: Yea she's afraid of you. She won't come in. Believe me I tried.
HS: Oh now we gotta bring her in here. Gary go get Scarlett.
MRM: I'm telling you she won't do it.
HS: I'll get her. So anyway, tell me about this new movie, Don Jon.
MRM: Ok, Don Jon, directed by a great guy named Gregory Dark. He did Wild Things, Popular 2, Middle Men. Spring Breakers. He wrote and directed this film and I star as this Jersey Shore guido type guy who works out alot and lives to pick up chicks at bars and clubs but he's also addicted to porn. Then he meets Barbara, played by Scarlett, who is also this Italian stereotype chick who is super hot but really controlling and domineering and selfish and loves romantic comedies. So the whole message about it is how guys look to porn for how they wish real life was and how women look to movies like The Notebook for how real life should be and how both view points and expectations and completely unrealistic.
HS: Cool. Cool. Oh here she is!
SJ: Hello!
HS: Told ya I'd get her in here. Why are you scared of me?
SJ: I'm not scared of you I just know what types of questions you ask.
HS: What kind of questions do I ask?
SJ: Personal questions.
HS: That's what makes it fun. Boy oh boy. Look at you two. Ya know...let me tell you something. You better treat him right. Because he's a great guy. He's one of my guys. We consider him family here and he's been through alot. From Mel Morley to who knows what other psychos he's fallen for. But I think he's found something special in you and how happy you make him and I really want it to work between you too.
SJ: Awww thank you.
HS: So don't mess it up.
SJ: Don't put it all on me. We both won't mess it up. How about that?
HS: Nah he won't mess it up.
SJ: How do you know?
HS: Because I know. He's head over heels. Is that a Marilyn Monroe tattoo I see on your forearm?
SJ: Yes it is.
HS: I heard you're obsessed with her.
SJ: No. No. That's just the internet. I just admire her.
HS: Why? Why do women quote her and love her so much?
SJ: What kind of question is that? She was an icon.
HS: She was an average actress. She was just beautiful.
SJ: She was more than average. She was someone who went through alot in her life and personified the quintessential movie star, yet was still not happy. She kind of had this tragic story alot of women can sympathize with, that's all.
HS: And you wanna emulate her?
SJ: Not really but I can learn from her. I think women like her, like Angelina Jolie, who I think generations from now will have the same legendary impact after she's gone, women like that really lived a life worth telling in movies and I think that's something you can't say for every actress who works in this town. That's something to admire. I really think that. I mean Angelina, look at what she's been through, with her father, with her drug problems, fighting cancer, winning Oscars, how she met Brad, her humanitarian work, now she's becoming a phenomenal director. What a life. I'd get a tattoo of her too but the fact she's still alive and I may meet her one day or work with her, would be kinda creepy. So I hold off on that haha. But yea I admire women who led extraordinary lives. Lives that would make a great movie someday. They inspire me.
HS: You think someday someone's gonna make a movie about your life?
SJ: Me? Oh I dunno. I don't think I've done anything interesting enough yet. I think this tattoo is the most interesting thing about me. It makes me feel more interesting I guess.
HS: But you've had some dark things happen to you. Maybe not as dark as Marilyn but I mean, you got assaulted by some fans a few years ago, had some famous affairs...
SJ: Well... I wouldn't say affairs...
HS: Well what would you call them? They were married men when you met them. Michael Bay, Sean Penn. Let's be real here.
SJ:....unhappily married men, haha.
Robin: Oh... So that makes it ok.
SJ: Well Sean was separated, but listen I'm not here to talk about that...
HS: Ok...but you have had hardship. I mean what did I hear, your brother committed suicide when you were how old?
SJ: 13. He was 16.
HS: That had to be rough right?
SJ: Awful.
HS: How'd you deal with that?
SJ: I cut myself haha.
HS: Really?
SJ: Yea. It was tough. I didn't know what else to do. I saw what my mom and dad went through and it was just a hard time for everyone. Me, my little sister. I had just did Home Alone 3, my career as a child actor was finally taking off and then bam, tragedy. The family never really recovered after something like that. Dinners at the table are ...a lot quieter.
HS: Did you blame yourself? Like because maybe your fame or whatever, he got jealous?
SJ: Oh no. I don't think so.
HS: Why do you think he did it?
SJ: He had recently come out to my parents and they weren't too happy about it.
HS: He was gay?
SJ: Yea.
HS: Wow. Did you blame your parents then?
SJ: For a while.
HS: So what'd you do? Did you ever say, 'how could you not accept him mom? He's our son!' or something?
SJ: It was mostly my dad. He had the problem with it, more so than my mom. She kind of just went along with what he said. But he changed alot after that.
HS: He became more accepting.
SJ: Haha, no he became more of a drinker.
HS: Oh wow.
SJ: Yea, I mean, Hunter and my dad, Hunter was my brother, they were really close and he felt like, he lost a friend ... not just a son. He probably had a lot of guilt.
HS: Are both your parents still alive, still together?
SJ: They're still alive but my mom and dad split up when I was 19.
Robin: Yea most marriage don't survive the loss of a child.
SJ: No it's nearly impossible. In fact they were getting divorced at the same time we were filming Desire, the film me and him met on. So THAT'S why I was being such a bee-yotch (to Michael).
HS: Yea he said you weren't that nice on set.
SJ: But the good thing is I still have a good relationship with my mom. She was actually my manager for the first couple years of my career, until the money got really good, then it was like okay...i think i'll take over from here haha.
HS: Yea gotta watch that bank account, because even parents...
SJ: Can be shady.
HS: Does your sister act?
SJ: No, she's studying to work with animals. She wants to be a vet.
HS: Wow. So how did you two get together? I know Mike you told me last time you were here you and her did that movie together a long time ago but there was no chemistry...weren't getting along...
MRM: Well we were both dating other people at the time too so... I was still with Kristen Bell and she was with Bay so...
HS: Oh ok.
SJ: Yea it wasn't until 2012 I reached out and asked for tickets to a Chants of Reign show that we reconnected after 7 years of not talking at all.
HS: Ohh ok and it just sparked from there.
MRM: Yea. She was still in a dark place, still getting over her divorce from Ryan. She hadn't dated anybody since really...? (looks to her)
HS: Really?
SJ: Yea I was single for like 2 and a half years.
HS: Wow.
MRM: Yea and I was single too and we started off as friends. I kinda put it out there we should go on a date. She wasn't sure. We went on the date and it just didn't click.
HS: What do you mean it just didn't click? Explain that to me.
MRM: I mean, when you are already friends with someone. You hang out, go to dinner, see movies, talk, get coffee, then all of a sudden you decide ok let's go on a "date", and just do the same thing you been doing all along, dinner, coffee, whatever, but this time you're calling it a date, and expect just because you're calling it a date that sparks will fly, it just doesn't work that way.
HS: Yea. The sparks have to be there from the beginning.
Robin: Right, that's why some people are friends and some people become a couple, because they had that chemistry from the start and couldn't keep their hands off each other.
MRM: Right. and chemistry requires a series of things. Not just one or two. It takes physical attraction, which we had, but it also takes mental connection, it takes intention. You both have to equally WANT there to be a connection, and at the time I just felt, like I was the only one trying to make it work. Make that leap from a friendship connection to something deeper but she was holding back. I felt a hesitation there.
HS: Is that true, Scarlett? Were you holding back?
SJ: Yea looking back on it I guess I was. I wasn't sure if I was ready to get back out there. Trust someone again. Trust myself again. Trust myself to treat someone the way they need to be treated. A relationship is a real job in a lot of ways. A daily job. And if you both aren't doing your job someone's going to get hurt. And I was coming out of a situation where I felt I did a bad job and the person I was with, could have...done a better job...and I was still hurting and wasn't sure if I was ready to try again...if I had the energy to try and see if I was good enough to do the job again and if he was good enough. At least not yet. I guess I needed time.HS: So why go on the date then?
SJ: Well I thought I was ready. I thought at some point in the date he would say or do something to make me go, 'ok, I'm excited for the future of this' or 'this is the guy to make me wanna jump in again' or something. But that never happened. I certainly felt he was trying to make it happen, but I dunno, for whatever reason it wasn't connecting. I wasn't letting it in. So I guess looking back, I wasn't ready.
MRM: So we went on the date, kissed goodnight. And the next morning texted each other like 'felt nothing' and she's like 'yea me too, friends i guess' haha. She goes away to film something, I do my thing. Many months go by...
SJ: Almost a YEAR went by...I think...right?
MRM: Yea. And then she got attacked by those girls who wanted her autograph and I felt...angry. Like, it shocked me how angry I felt. Like how dare someone hurt her. I immediately reached out to see if she was ok. I visited her in the hospital. And we just started spending everyday together and it just felt different. It wasn't just a friend looking out for another friend. It became something deeper.
HS: It became romantic.
MRM: Yea. And one day we were hanging out in her place unpacking groceries and I asked her if she was dating anyone, because remember it had been a year since our date so I don't know what she's up to, ya know?
HS: Yea.
MRM: And she's like no. And she could have just said no and left it at that. But she said no, are you seeing anyone? And just the way she said it, I knew she wanted me to say 'no I'm single too'. And we just had this moment where we knew. We knew what we had to do.
SJ: It was really special.
HS: Jesus you guys must have the best sex. You guys must fuck like rabbits.
MRM: Actually, we don't do it as often as you may think.
HS: Huh?
MRM: I personally feel if you bang too much it becomes routine. Like, ok it's 10 o'clock time to have sex. It becomes boring almost. I think if you hold out, wait a few days, build up that desire again, it becomes more new and fresh and interesting.
SJ: You miss each other.
MRM: Yea.
HS: So you're telling me you guys don't do it everyday?
MRM: Nope. Never. Some couples I know pride themselves on that. Oh we bang 3 times a day. We bang twice a day, we bang everyday. That's not for us.
SJ: Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel don't even live in the same house.
Robin: Yea I heard that.
HS: You guys are crazy. I'd be tagging that every chance I get!
MRM: Howard, even with our schedules, she's always somewhere, I'm always somewhere. Its hard to be in the same city for a week anyway, so it provides that absence makes the heart grow fonder thing we crave.
HS: At least she gives you anal right?
SJ: Oh God! Here we go. See this is why I didn't wanna come out here.
HS: Mike it's just me and you here. She gives you the butt?
MRM: I love how we just went from talking about her brother's death to anal ..haha!
HS: Hey I gotta lighten the mood. No seriously, you give him anal I assume? What good girlfriend doesn't? You're about to be his wife. No man pops the question unless she's giving him all the goods in the candy store.
SJ: I make sure my man is happy. That's all I'll say.
HS: So you do?
SJ: I make sure my man is satisfied. As any woman should. I make sure he gets what he wants.
HS: So she gives you anal.
MRM: Ok I'll say this.
SJ: Mike I'll kill you!
MRM: Haha, no no just listen. Let's just say, whatever we do involving her butt doesn't involve my penis.
HS: Really? What? Your finger?
MRM: That's all I will say.
HS: Tell me.
MRM: Use your imagination.
HS: She has a great ass.
MRM: Yes she does, haha.
SJ: Ok i'm ready to go.
HS: No stay stay. I will change the subject. Ok, so marriage and kids. We lookin' at that?
MRM: Yea, that's the plan. Next summer sometime. Kids after that. Heck, I already got one.
HS: That's right. London. How's he doing?
MRM: Great.
HS: You guys gonna take him in and raise him or...
MRM: Yea that's the plan.
HS: (to Scarlett) You met him yet?
SJ: No not yet.
MRM: She will.
HS: You still best friends with James Franco? Because I never see you guys out anymore?
MRM: Ya know, I dunno. I'll always be friends with him. Nothing particular happened, we just don't have time for each other anymore. And I haven't seen him in years, physically. So I dunno if you can still call someone your best friend when they never have time for you.
HS: So you wanna hang out but he's too busy going to school to get his 18 different degrees and writing and directing and acting 100 different projects and writing books and what not?
MRM: Well yes and no. I don't wanna put it all on him. I'm busy too and there are times where I could make the time to go see him but sometimes I figure what's the point. I dunno. We just grew apart I guess. It happens. But I got nothing but love for the guy.
HS: But I don't understand that. How can best friends just not hang out anymore. Something had to have happened.
MRM: Nothing happened. I swear.
HS: When was the last time you even spoke to him?
MRM: Uhh...probably last year. Last October exactly, one year ago. Wished him a happy birthday through text. That's it really.
HS: That's so weird to me. I don't get it.
MRM: Listen, in high school when we met we were close freshman year and senior year. In between he missed alot of school because he was filming stuff. After graduation we went our separate ways due to our career but in 2006 we did Popular 3 together so we re-connected on that and were close from 2006 to about 2011. Hanging out ALL THE TIME. But after he decided to go back to school and all this he just got...weird. He became obsessed with keeping busy doing everything underneath the sun. Like some doctor told him he only has one year to live and he decided to do everything and anything he can get his hands on. I didn't really understand it but he just...changed, over time. I had to respect it. But who knows what the future holds. We can always reconnect. Nothing's stopping it. We just haven't found the time. But it's cool, I got a new BFF now anyway so...
HS: Oh yea?
MRM: Alex Pettyfer. He's in our movie Don Jon. He plays my roommate and best friend. And while filming we became best friends in real life too. We really bonded on the set but to me that doesn't mean anything because actors bond on set all the time then once it wraps you never see them again. But he went out of his way to hang out with me afterwards and I could tell he really admired me as an actor and wanted to learn from me and spend time with me and I became close to him once I saw how much we have in common when it comes to acting, relationships, our relationships with our mothers, etc. He's just a super cool guy and we connected. Now he's like my right hand man. I can just tell. Great guy. And I'm a fan of his too. Phenomenal actor.
HS: Now I wanted to ask you about your boy fucking up.
MRM: Uh oh. Who fucked up now.
HS: Gary Oldman. Your hero. You heard his comments back in the summer right?
MRM: Yea. I don't see what the big deal is.
HS: Really?
MRM: I mean, do I agree with everything he said? No. But the Seymour Hoffman comments in general that everyone made such a big stink out of. I honestly don't think he meant anything mean. He was saying, he understands how someones insecurities can lead them to become drug addicts despite all their success and he was speculating on that. Gary himself went through it so he knows more than anyone. We all have our demons. And face it. People now think of Gary Oldman as Commissioner Gordon and the guy from the Harry Potter films. People seem to forget Gary used to be a raging alcoholic. He was not a very nice guy. He's a dark son of a bitch. He's become homogenized lately and has been on his best behavior the last few decades but if anything that interview just reminded me, he's still that guy and I think it shocked alot of people.
HS: Yea they forget this is the guy who spent much of the early 90's screaming up a storm in films like Leon and 5th Element and Air Force One...
MRM: Yea, he's a psycho. That comes from somewhere. You don't just pull characters and performances like that out your ass. That rage comes from somewhere. From real pain and real demons. That's why he was the first actor I ever fell in love with. For the first time I saw someone on screen expressing the same anger I felt. I used to feel (rubs Scarlett's hand). The guy had a rough life man. Do your research. He's a real G. He's that dude. He's 120 lbs soaking wet but he will still whoop that ass. Don't get it twisted, that's Sid from Sid & Nancy. That's Lee Harvey Oswald.
HS: Yea! JFK.
MRM: Drexl Spivey. Dracula. State of Grace. I could go on and on. So yeah, people need to remember who Gary Oldman is, or was.
Alot of actors are like that. Not just the obvious ones like Mel Gibson or Alec Baldwin. Look at Sean Penn. Sean Penn was no saint. Mickey Rourke. I mean look at what I said about Natalie Portman that got people all rowled up. But it's the truth. Alot of people didn't wanna hear that about her. Because she's America's sweetheart. Reese Witherspoon. Another one. 'Do you know who I am?' Remember that? Once people get a little alcohol in them, a little sauce in them, they don't think a camera is around. True colors comes out. So a lot of the celebs we follow we think we know them but we don't. We think they are nice because of how they and their team present them in the media, but they're not. They have a dark side too and you have to separate the actor from their personal life. At least I try to. I have made my own mistakes. But my fans stuck by me. None of us are perfect. Some people are just too soft these days. He's old school. A man's man. But we live in a pussified PC culture where people cannot speak their mind and if they say one thing that pisses off one group, they have to issue some PR apology for having an opinion. It's crazy. Gary just said how he felt and I have no problem with it. He's still the man. So the haters can suck it.
HS: Yea some people can't handle it when someone has an opinion that is different from the crowd.
MRM: Yea like I had this long post I wanted to make when that Elliot Roger thing happened but I didn't because I knew what people would say. That I was bashing women, which I'm not.
HS: What were you gonna say?
MRM: Just that if you look at all these mass shootings and who the shooters are, what one thing do they all have in common. Nerdy white males who were socially awkward and couldn't get laid. Elliot Roger, James Holmes kid from Aurora, Colorado Dark Knight Rises theater shooting, the Columbine kids, the asian guy at Virginia Tech. Same thing over and over. You never see popular handsome guys shooting up schools. Girls never do it. It's always these types of guys. Guys who I guarantee, if they were getting laid, they wouldn't have so much anger against the world. People don't understand. The human male produces 3,000 ounces of sperm a day. That needs to go somewhere. We are sexual beings. When men don't get laid, they go crazy, literally. Something psychologically happens, where they snap. And it's dangerous. They feel angry, they feel the need to prove their manhood. Feel tough. And most guys will never vanquish a villain or save the world or save someone's life or win the Super Bowl or something so they score. They fuck. That's how they feel like men. And when you take THAT away, what does he have left? Nothing. And they can't handle that. It's in our nature to conquer. Whether it's a video game, our sports opponent, Hitler or Alexander The Great wanting to conquer other nations, or to conquer women. And when the male isn't allowed that he feels worthless and he needs an outlet and sadly that outlet is violence. So basically my point was if girls put out more guys like this would never do what they did. But I decided not to write it.
HS: No I agree with you. So what's next for you man?
MRM: I'm writing and directing a movie and I'm also about to shoot a film with Daniel Day Lewis as well as the next Bond film. Staying busy.
HS: So no retiring?
MRM: Nope. Back at it. Refreshed and ready to go.
HS: Still doing the music though right?
MRM: Oh yea band is doing better than ever. We got nominated for 2 Grammies. Successful tours. Our latest album came out a month ago and is doing really well.
HS: Gonna go on tour with that?
MRM: Nah it's not really an album you take on tour. It's more bedroom music than stadium music.Robin: And how did you feel Scarlett about that new song of there's talking about Olivia Wilde?
HS: Yea that has to be weird.
SJ: Ya know...it wasn't my favorite song, haha.
MRM: Yea we fought about it. Because she didn't want that song out there and she didn't want it on the album when I played it for her back in February and I was like, it's my favorite track and she got pissed. I was like uh oh here we go...
Robin: Well I could see why, I wouldn't want my boyfriend making a song about his ex saying how she is the only girl he dreams about much less call it his favorite song.
MRM: I get that, I really do, but I tried to explain to her it has nothing to do with me still having feelings for Olivia but just loving the SONIC SOUND of the track and how my fans will enjoy it. But she didn't buy that and that's why we broke up for like a month and a half back in February and March.
HS: So you're ok with it now?
SJ: I guess. He made a song for me called Scarlett Letter to make up for it haha.
MRM: But you know what's funny. I said this the other day. I'm a big believer in zodiac signs and it's funny how my two most meaningful and longest relationships have been with Scorpios. Kristen Bell, who was born on Halloween, October 31st, I was with her for 3 years, we got engaged...and now Scarlett, born November 21st. And I know they say Taurus and Scorpio are a good match, so, we'll see. That's a good sign I guess.
SJ: Good pair of signs, haha.
HS: What?
Gary: They gotta go.
HS: Oh come on man. Ok well glad you guys came in. Please come back anytime. We love you here and best of luck with the marriage.
SJ: Thank you!
MRM: Thanks man you're the best.
HS: No you are the best. Go see their new film Don Jon in theaters everywhere Friday October 24th. We will be right back after these words.
