BUT ALFIE ALLEN, YOU HAVE HAD A
GREAT SUMMER.
YOU HAVE BEEN NOMINATED -- EMMY
NOMINATED FOR --
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )
-- "GAME OF THRONES."
WHERE WERE YOU WHEN YOU GOT THE
NEWS?
>> I WAS IN THE WEST END OF
LONDON.
I WAS GETTING A GIFT FROM
SOMEONE FOR ME, AND, YEAH, I
JUST GOT THE CALL FROM MY AGENT
THAT WELL DONE, CONGRATULATIONS.
I GO, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
SHE SAYS, YOU HAVE BEEN
NOMINATED, WELL DONE.
I WAS, LIKE, A GROUP NOMINATION?
SHE SAID, NO, YOU HAVE BEEN
INDIVIDUALLY NOMINATED.
SO I HAD TO TAKE IT IN, CALL
EVERY MEMBER OF MY FAMILY,
PREDICTABLY COULDN'T GET THROUGH
TO ANY OF THEM, SO I JUST KIND
OF WENT TO A SCREENING OF "THE
GREAT HACK" AND I COULDN'T SIT
THROUGH THE SCREENING BECAUSE MY
PHONE WAS GOING OFF SO MUCH, SO
I HAD TO INDULGE IN THE
NARCISSISM.
>> James: THAT'S AMAZING.
YEAH.
>> James: AND RuPAUL, YOU
ARE ALSO NOMINATED THIS YEAR.
CONGRATULATIONS.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )
BUT HERE'S THE THING, RuPAUL,
YOU AND I ARE NOMINATED IN THE
SAME CATEGORY.
( LAUGHTER )
NOW, I SHOULD SAY, RU, YOU HAVE
WON THE PAST THREE YEARS, BUT A
LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SAYING THIS IS
MY YEAR.
( LAUGHTER )
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> WELL, I THINK IT IS YOUR
YEAR.
I THINK IT'S YOUR YEAR.
>> A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SAYING
IT.
>> THE SHOW WE DID TOGETHER.
>> James: WE DID THE SHOW
TOGETHER, YES.
>> YEAH, SO, YOU KNOW -- DO YOU
HAVE ONE?
YOU HAVE 16 NOMINATIONS THIS
YEAR?
>> James: THE LAST THING I
WANT IS THIS INTERVIEW TO BECOME
ABOUT ME.
( LAUGHTER )
BUT, RU, WE SHOULD LOOK WHO
WE'RE UP AGAINST.
YOU AND I ARE UP AGAINST ELLEN,
LITTLE NEWCOMER, FRESH OUT OF
THE BOX.
>> YEAH, I'VE HEARD OF HER.
>> James: AMY POEHLER, NICK
HOFFMAN AND MARIE CONDO, WHO I
THINK MIGHT BE OUR BIGGEST
THREAT.
>> RIGHT.
>> James: WHAT DO WE DO TO
PREVENT HER FROM WINNING?
( LAUGHTER )
( APPLAUSE )
YOU KNOW HOW I THINK WE DO IT?
YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK WE SHOULD
DO, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE SHE DOES
THE TIDYING UP.
I THINK ME AND YOU, WE GO BACK
TO OUR HOUSES, WE THROW OUT
EVERYTHING THAT DOESN'T SPARK
JOY, BUT WE DUMP IT OUTSIDE HER
HOUSE.
>> I LOVE IT.
>> James: SO SHE CAN'T GET OUT
THE DOOR, WE'RE AT THE EMMYS,
EVEN IF THEY CALL HER NAME,
WE'LL GO UP AND ACCEPT IT
TOGETHER.
>> I LOVE IT.
>> James: THAT'S OUR PLAN.
THAT'S IT.
