Chrissy, I see you, and you got y-- You got-- you got your conga vibe over there? Your Cuban vibe? Who knew you had all those moves in you? If you don't move when you hear that song, you don't-- you're not human.
That's the closest I might ever come to being a rock star.
(laughs) That was-- was really dope.
