Oh, and Kyle Richards gets pegged by Santa in a snowball fight.
I want to start with the pumpkin cheesecake with a graham cracker crust.
Did you eat it?
And was it good?Okay, well, I didnt actually make it [Laughs].
So it was fun to be around all the Christmas decorations and the fake snow and the turkey.
And then Id be like,Can we just eat that?
It looks so good.Wed be sharing recipes on the set, Betsy Brandt and myself.
But I didnt eat that because it was a prop.
And I wanted to really badly.
But I am equally into the holidays.
I love the holidays.
I put my tree up.
My good friend Justin always says it goes up the day after Halloween … slight exaggeration!
But it is up before Thanksgiving.
I guess Id have to say I thankHalloweenfor that, for people to be reminded that Im acting again.
So Kyle and Trish do have that aspect in common.
My favorite line of the whole movie which isin the trailer, too is when you say Fake Fendi.
Did you come up with that?
Is there a backstory?
[Laughs] No!
But, um, it was funny.
I think some people will think its funny, people will laugh about it.
I feel like it was like a pumpkin-key in of flavor, actually.
So I was like, Ive got to nail this on the first take.
And, contrary to popular belief, I dont throw drinks in peoples faces!
So I was really happy to nail it on the first take.
Your fellow Housewives Karen Huger, Sonja Morgan, Cynthia Bailey, and Lisa Barlow show up for cameos.
Did you know about it beforehand?I did.
I had asked for Lisa Rinna to be there, but then at the last minute she couldnt.
I was like, oh, itll be fun!
But she wasnt able to.
In the movie, when we see the Housewives, theyre gossiping about yours and Dianas fallout.
And she only thinks of me as an actor, which I love.
But, the Housewives fans are gonna love it.
The Betsy Brandt fans are gonna love it.
We just want everyone to be able to enjoy this movie, but the Housewives fans are passionate.
They are not messing around, so theyre gonna be watching that with a magnifying glass.
And I think theyre gonna think thats fun.
I died at Lisa Barlow as a real estate agent.I know [Laughs.]
I thought that was really funny.
They were passing me and just glaring at me and I was like [shudders].
Anyway, no they did not reconcile!
Maybe thatll have to be in a part two.
Or anyHousewivesshow!Um, I wouldnt say any of them were UN-GOAT.
I wouldnt say any of them are the GOAT.
Im not gonna point out who the GOAT is, but theres no UN-GOATS.
[Laughs] Some may just need some time!
I want to ask about the supermodel snow woman.
Like the elves gone wild in my front yard, the supermodel snow woman.
It was 95 degrees in Utah.
And they were creating these amazing sets with the fake snow and the decor.
If I could have Christmas year-round, I would.
So the fact that I got to start in July was really exciting.
I was like, I dont want to say that, it sounds so corny!
And then theyre like, Well, thats who she is.
And I was like, Okay, youre right.
We were filming late.
It was probably midnight at that time, maybe one in the morning.
And we were having so much fun, throwing these snowballs, all of the Girl Scouts and Betsy.
Betsy got me right in the face so many times, and she was enjoying it way too much.
But it was just such a fun night.
And then Santa, I had in the prior scene banged into him and hurt his arm.
The whole frickin town was coming for me, and [now] even Santa!
I think at one point I said,Even Santa, are you kidding me?!
Trishs house did look really good, of course it was over the top and ridiculous.
But Dianas looked really good.
So, Im not sure, but I cant give anything away [Laughs].
Can you tell me anything about whats next in your acting career?
Because I really want Kyle Richards Oscar, um, now.Aw, youre so cute.
It just feels like where Im supposed to be.
It really is just about family and forgiveness.
And Christmas pajamas and cooking and baking in the kitchen with Christmas music playing.
Whats your favorite holiday dessert to make?
And Kim, my sister, is the one who makesthebest dessert.
Shes famous for her fudge.
So Im always like,Dont forget your fudge!She makes unbelievable fudge.
So shes the one who makes the best dessert.
I keep it to the food.
Otherwise, Im just making, like, banana bread.
I have to ask whats on your menu because Christmas is coming up!Oh my God.
Im getting hungry thinking about it.
I make an unbelievable turkey.
I have a really great recipe.
I think I might do cornbread this Christmas.
