Young Hollywood

What up! Welcome to our comfortable party couch. Thanks for having us, rockstars. How are ya? You guys have just been on like a media blitz huh?

Josh Henderson

Yes. Yeah, it's been fun.

Christine Evangelista

It has been fun. We've been pretty busy.

Young Hollywood

So, you guys have to play actors, then you have to report on being an actor, playing an actor.

Josh Henderson

Yes. Yeah, lots of acting talk.

Young Hollywood

Where's all like the How do you find any sense of realism and what you guys are doing right now, huh?

Josh Henderson

It's interesting you know. Like, actor portraying an actor is always an interesting deal. But, um, for us, you know, it's it's been it's been super it's it's been fun because I'm portraying a guy who's the biggest film star in the world and

Young Hollywood

So, Josh, Captain Josh, you've been through Desperate Housewives, through Dallas, through a whole bunch of other things with your shirt off. And Christine, you're always seeming to find yourself on the opposite side of that. Try to keep my shirt on. I know that I know that you guys have to watch your figure. And I figured today, you're not working. So, let's get some candy into the mix. Look at that. Look at this.

Josh Henderson

No, I have to stay away from craft services today. I will take some Skittles.

Christine Evangelista

Pop in some gummies. No, I'll take the fish.

Young Hollywood

Oh, there you are. Okay, so the whole premise of this show is we get to see what it's like through the eyes of a celebrity. But from different approaches, right?

Christine Evangelista

Yeah, I mean, Megan is thrust into this world and her life changes overnight, right? And she's dating this guy and she's, you know, auditioning for films that she wouldn't have had opportunities for before and traveling all over the world with him. So it's it's exciting.

Young Hollywood

Yeah. And Mr. Kyle West, I mean, he's on top of the world right now, huh?

Josh Henderson

Yeah, you know, uh, with with being on top of the world comes comes a lot of, you know, uh, comes a lot of trouble, as well. And, uh, everything that happens to him is magnified, and he can't really do anything in privacy. So, so, um, it's, uh, it's it, you know, as of as as of now, Megan and Kyle are are kind of going through some stuff. And, uh, it's a little rocky. But the show, I mean, as fabulous as it is, it really, you know, focuses on the price of fame and what people are willing to do for fame and and how could you keep it?

Young Hollywood

So basically, this guy Terrence runs this clinic, self-help like organization, based in Malibu, right?

Josh Henderson

Yes, sir.

Young Hollywood

And he likes to, you like to, Kyle, your character likes to attribute all of your success, pretty much to this institute, right?

Josh Henderson

That's right. That's right.

Young Hollywood

So, you kind of let this guy run everything, pull your strings.

Josh Henderson

I trust him.

Young Hollywood

Yeah. And so, you're stepping in to an opportunity of a lifetime. You could sign a contract, have the world's biggest superstar, um, but you might lose some of yourself in the process.

Christine Evangelista

Yeah, maybe your own identity or integrity even. Um, yeah, so there's there's a lot of big issues that, you know, and I think obviously she they love each other and at its core, it's this love story. But, you know, I think can Megan have it all? Can she get the guy? Can she have the relationship, the money, uh, the jobs? And I think that's that's what she wants. That's what's driving her. The idea of having it all. But can you? And again, at what price, right? Like we saw in episode two, she gets this film, but then it's kind of taken away from her for like all these other reasons. So she doesn't really have the control that she thought she would, you know, it's definitely Terrence is driving the ship in a lot of ways.

Young Hollywood

So we get to see your character, Kyle, be on top of the world. Be a superstar, get all the women, have the house, have the fame. But even in like some of the past interviews, you guys talked about shooting the party scenes, uh, at the house that you have as your house as a stage house. And you said that these big beautiful grand staircase, the stairs were so long, like it was actually hard to walk up and down. And I thought that was kind of funny because it kind of reflects the whole theme of the show that even though it looks like it's the best idea, like you're signing the best Nothing's what it seems, right?

Josh Henderson

Yeah, definitely. That's true.

Young Hollywood

So each of your characters has to like undergo uh, some big changes in the show. But you guys also have to go into places that are probably uncomfortable as actors as well. Like for example, you guys are naked in a cabin by the lake.

Christine Evangelista

Yeah. And this is like you guys were really naked in a cabin by the lake. That was awkward. Very awkward. And I think I was a little more naked than Josh. Yeah. To be fair. So, yeah, there's a lot of you just let it, you know, go. It reaches a point where it's just like, okay, we just have to go for it, you know? And it's uncomfortable and it's weird but, you know, we have a job to do.

Young Hollywood

Thanks, guys. That's all the time we have. But I can't wait to see what's coming up. All these twists and turns. Thank you.

Josh Henderson

Thank you.

Christine Evangelista

All right. Thank you guys. Thank you.
