00:00 Can you please spell "Gabana"?
00:02 This is it. This is the line.
00:04 Well, I don't eat anything,
00:05 and when I feel like I'm about to faint,
00:07 I eat a cube of cheese.
00:09 [ Laughs ]
00:11 Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt
00:13 revisiting some of their most iconic
00:15 "Devil Wears Prada" quotes.
00:17 That's all.
00:19 The former co-stars reunited
00:20 for Variety's "Actors on Actors,"
00:23 where they took a look back at the classic film
00:25 and their unforgettable lines.
00:28 Oh, I'm sorry. Do you have some prior commitment?
00:30 Do you have some hideous skirt convention to go to?
00:33 [ Laughs ]
00:34 I have to say, there's something about
00:35 your particular voice saying the word "hideous."
00:37 Hideous. It just hits in this really good spot.
00:40 I wanted to make her a bit John Cleese, you know,
00:42 and that kind of physical comedy and, um, larger than life,
00:46 and I just felt a kind of very pronounced British accent
00:49 can be really irritating and patronizing
00:51 and makes her sound more highly strung.
00:53 While Emily's character, who's also named Emily,
00:56 is full of snark in the 2006 film,
00:59 the two recall Anne's take on Andy,
01:01 who's brand-new to the fashion industry.
01:04 Can you please spell "Gabana"?
01:06 Can you please spell "Gabana"?
01:09 Hello?
01:12 Guess not.
01:13 That's a line Anne says still follows her around,
01:17 even on vacay.
01:19 I was in Italy recently, and I showed up at the hotel,
01:23 and they baked a cake.
01:25 I arrived in my hotel room to a cake,
01:27 and they'd written on the top, "Can you please spell 'Gabana'?"
01:29 Oh.
01:32 That is so...
01:33 -Not the greatest. -It's the greatest.
01:35 It was just a testament to people's love of the movie
01:37 and how deeply they'd taken that film in,
01:38 and that's just a wonderful feeling.
01:40 I just feel lucky.
01:41 Meanwhile, Emily says this might be
01:43 the one she hears most from fans.
01:46 My flight attendant coming over went, um...
01:49 I love that.
01:50 "I'm still working on my stomach flu."
01:53 It was so cool, and I was like, "Yeah."
01:55 And then people also misquote that,
01:57 "I'm one stomach flu away from my goal weight."
01:59 I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.
02:02 Do you correct them, or do you let them live in it?
02:03 No, I just let them say it,
02:05 because I think there's various versions, you know.
02:08 This is it. This is the line.
02:10 "Well, I don't eat anything,
02:12 and when I feel like I'm about to faint,
02:14 I eat a cube of cheese."
02:17 Can we?
02:18 Can we?
02:19 The most iconic lines in cinema history, Emily.
02:23 It turns out people really like "The Devil Wears Prada."
02:26 And it turns out people really like this Emily quote.
02:30 "You eat carbs for Christ's sake."
02:33 "You eat carbs for Christ's sake."
02:35 God, I think was the line.
02:37 So unfair.
02:38 It's so unfair.
02:40 So unfair.
02:42 And of course, it's not "The Devil Wears Prada"
02:45 without the one-liner queen herself, Miranda Priestly.
02:49 Is there some reason my coffee isn't here?
02:51 Has she died or something?
02:53 By all means, move at a glacial pace.
02:56 You know how that thrills me.
02:58 Emily is just,
03:00 we just really bonded on "The Devil Wears Prada."
03:02 The ladies have remained close since the film,
03:05 and can't help but reminisce about how it all began.
03:08 Did we meet before the table read of "Devil Wears Prada"?
03:11 Was it at the table read?
03:12 This is so embarrassing,
03:13 because I remember every second
03:15 of the first time I met you,
03:16 and you're like, "Did we?"
03:17 Emily and I, honestly, it's funny,
03:20 because even if we hadn't worked together
03:22 and been so close,
03:23 I think we would have found each other in life
03:25 and just become great pals.
03:26 She's one of my favorite people in the whole world.
03:29 And I just kind of look at her,
03:29 I'm like, "I so want to be you.
03:31 You're just so bright and sparkling and funny."
03:34 I remember walking into the room
03:36 and turning and meeting you.
03:38 And I just remember going like, "Hi, buddy," in my head.
03:42 And instant thought, I was like, "What, a movie star?"
03:45 What?
03:46 First thought.
03:47 Like, there was like, you were like shedding stardust.
03:50 It was crazy.
03:52 Are you getting this?
03:53 And I just remember thinking to myself,
03:55 "Emily Blunt is going to be the biggest deal."
03:57 (upbeat music)
04:00 (upbeat music)
