LEA: These bangs say... I was up *really* late last night partying at the Met Gala and I am DRAGGING TODAY! BUT I'M HERE. I'M A PRO.

MYLES: I won the Best Actor in Musical Tony last year for my titular role in *MJ: The Musical* and my blazer is JAUNTY.

LEA: I'm not eligible for *Funny Girl* because of freaking Beanie Feldstein pipping me to the post. [BUT I DON'T MIND](https://people.com/theater/lea-michele-doesnt-care-about-not-being-eligible-for-tony-award-funny-girl/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

MYLES: Are you sure you don't mind? I heard you're objectively fantastic in that. You probably would have won.

LEA: I DON'T MIND MYLES LET'S STOP TALKING ABOUT IT.

MYLES: Do you want to just announce the nominations now?

LEA: Yes. I am as sleepy as the color of this outfit.

MYLES: Your outfit would look good with my blazer, actually!

LEA: CAN WE JUST GET TO IT?
