Young Hollywood

I'm joined here now by two lovely sisters. Brianna and Kaylee, how are you?

Guest

So great. How are you?

Young Hollywood

I'm I'm I'm amazing and this is a great organization. You are being honored. You are singing. Yeah. This is great and it's your sixth year which is you're doing amazing work. How did you first find out about the organization?

Guest

You know, as you said, six years ago, we got asked to dance in this crazy event, the Alzheimer's Association. And we were like, oh my god, are you sure? And we read all about it and found out it's an amazing organization, obviously a horrible disease that affects many people and we thought this would be a great way to be a part of it. And we get to dance and sing and play and we've done it the last five years. So now this this year we're getting an award and my sister is going to be actually performing. So it's like a full even our parents came tonight. I feel like we're in like a children's play.

Young Hollywood

Can you tell us what you're singing?

Guest

I'm I'm I'm allowed to, right? I'm I'm I'm singing don't rain on my parade from funny girl.

Young Hollywood

Nice.

Guest

Yeah. That was great. I'm excited. I'm excited.

Young Hollywood

And you guys aren't singing this year.

Guest

No, not this year. We're actually getting an award, which is so nice. Bob Newhart will be giving it to us and we have a little speech prepared. We're really honored. It's nice. It's very humbling to be honored tonight is uh, we've been doing this for almost six years now and too when when I heard you were being honored, I was like, wait, so that means we don't have to sing and perform tonight. Awesome, no pressure. But uh, it's really wonderful. You know, tonight's about Alzheimer's and coming together to really overcome a horrible disease that I didn't know to be honest that much about until I became familiar with um, sorry and what this what this night does for everyone. I think that it's an epidemic that is uh, so relevant to our country and our world and I think it's uh, it's not talked about enough. So I'm I'm so happy that this is happening tonight to continue to bring awareness to uh, to the cause. Second guest: A lot of people, you know, don't realize how how big Alzheimer's is, you know, how much it's in the world today. It's so widespread. I mean, my grandfather had it and now I'm dealing with my father-in-law. Um, our whole family is kind of coming to grips with the fact that that's what's going on. My mom has Alzheimer's and uh, you know, she's she's going to be 83. I'm the youngest of nine kids, but she's she's 83 and it's still heartbreaking. My great-grandmother had dementia, which back in the day was just, oh, grandma's a little off her rocker. Not realizing that it was something that was tearing her apart. And um that's exactly why I'm here.

Young Hollywood

Is there anyone that you're excited to see perform tonight? Because there's a lot of great performances.

Guest

Yeah. No, uh so many.

Young Hollywood

Are you getting up?

Guest

I'm getting up there. Yeah, yeah.

Young Hollywood

You are.

Guest

Yes. Singing a little Elvis.

Young Hollywood

Do you get nervous because obviously you're great actors and we know you from on screen, but we don't know you're singing. Are you nervous about singing?

Guest

One on by myself. But now that I have him tonight, I'm not as nervous. It's much for more fun and nice to do it with with Jonathan.

Young Hollywood

Jonathan's somewhat your rock in life.

Guest

He really is. He's my rock in life. I actually describe us as you're the million dollar singer and I'm just riding your coat tales. Second guest: He's lying. He actually has an amazing voice, which you'll find out tonight. But he uh he doesn't know it, which is even better. It's even more endearing that you don't know that you can really sing.

Young Hollywood

What message that you'd like to tell everyone watching on how they should help the Alzheimer's Association.

Guest

Yeah. Uh you know, it doesn't charity and in associations like Alzheimer's Association, you don't have to donate necessarily money. You can donate time. You can donate uh just uh a tweet, you know, raise awareness. Tell your friends about it. Just really get in your favorite uh beanbag chair. Yeah. Uh and while you're waiting for us to come on, donate. Yeah. Pick up the phone or or cure the disease. Second guest: Say it in an English accent. Please give them any dollars or cents you have because we need to figure out a cure.

Guest

She's talented. She can do anything. She can do. There you go.
