(upbeat music)
How would your friends describe you?
Easygoing, passionate, adventurous,
sarcastic, clumsy, goofy,
generous, kindhearted?
- Kindhearted?
- All right, Tommy's
choice is kindhearted.
I'm going to go with-
- Can I answer for you?
- Yes, you are my friend.
What would you say?
- Passionate.
- Oh, thank you.
- I guess sarcastic?
Is that true, Anthony and Pips, is it?
- 1000%.
- I think you, Anthony,
there's a passionate,
and there's also a goofy, easygoing.
- I'll say, for me, passionate.
- Me? I would say...
- Generous, just from
whenever you're on stage,
and life, you're so-
- I'm so generous, you guys.
- I'm gonna say passionate,
just 'cause that covers
a lot of bases.
- I'll say kindhearted.
- I think I'm easygoing, but I don't know
that my friends would
always agree with me.
I'm thinking kindhearted would win.
- I would hope people
would say I was generous,
but I feel like, if they were presented
with this list, they
would say easygoing first.
- Who would you choose as your sidekick?
Abu from "Aladdin," Flounder
from "The Little Mermaid,"
Olaf from "Frozen,"
Tinkerbell from "Peter Pan,"
Pumbaa from "The Lion
King," Mushu from "Mulan,"
Pascal from "Tangled," or Piglet
from "The New Adventures
of Winnie the Pooh"?
- I love Mushu.
- I feel like Tinkerbell has some powers.
Does she?
Could she bless you?
Can Tinkerbell bless you?
Could I get blessed if
I picked Tinkerbell?
And you could always
put a little Dixie cup
over her, if you're trying to sleep.
So I'm gonna do Tinkerbell.
- Like a sidekick, you
gotta spend all day,
every day with them.
I'm gonna choose Abu.
I think he'd be a really good friend,
loyal, you could have a laugh with him,
you have adventures with him,
he's tough, he's gonna
help you in a fight.
I'm gonna choose Abu.
- It's gotta be Mushu from "Mulan,"
because, you know, he's Mushu.
- Piglet, and that's 10 times outta 10.
- I think I'm going with Flounder.
- Flounder, yeah, God,
you are so predictable.
(Lin laughs)
- I got Pumbaa, 100%.
- I'm gonna go with Abu,
'cause he has thumbs.
- (laughs) I think mine might be Flounder.
- What is your favorite part of a story?
The quirky characters,
the fairytale ending,
the wild adventures, the soundtrack,
the love interests, the
life lessons they teach,
the villain, or the setting?
I like the wild adventures, right?
I'm down for some swashbuckling.
- The quirky characters,
was that an option?
- That was the first option,
and I love that for you.
- I'm gonna with that.
- I love that
for your journey.
I'm going to go with the soundtrack,
or if you're a Broadway pedant,
the original cast album.
- The soundtrack, come on.
- Nice, I'm gonna pick life lessons.
- I think I'm gonna do
the quirky characters, so.
- You be playing the quirky characters.
I understand, you drawn to them.
- The adventures.
I like all the stuff in the middle.
- Well, I'm the life lessons
they teach, surprise.
- What about the villain?
It makes the story good.
- Yes.
- I'm gonna choose that one.
- Which Disney princess
do you vibe with most?
Jasmine from "Aladdin," Belle
from "Beauty and the Beast,"
Ariel from "The Little Mermaid,"
Cinderella from "Cinderella,"
Tiana from "The Princess and the Frog,"
Pocahontas from "Pocahontas,"
Moana from "Moana," Mulan from "Mulan"?
I'd have to go with Mulan,
'cause she's just about that life.
- 100%, I'm going with that.
- I love Moana, though.
She got the island vibes.
You know, my family from Puerto Rico,
even though that wasn't
set in Puerto Rico,
but still just reminds
me, every time I watch
that movie, it just
reminds me of my roots,
and what Puerto Rico makes me feel like.
- What was the last one?
Moana from "Moana."
- That's one of the Disney movies?
- Yes.
- Is it good?
- You saw it early, and
don't pretend you didn't.
- Ariel.
- You're going with Ariel?
You actually make my choice easier,
because that's my default,
but I'm gonna go with Moana.
- That's the movie you
were telling me about,
that has like the girl, right?
- Yes.
- That's trying to leave
the island? Yeah, yeah.
- How far she'll go.
- Tiana, "The Princess and
the Frog," I mean, it's Tiana.
- I love Mulan.
She's courageous, she did not want her dad
to fight in that war, so she escaped,
she chopped her hair off, she fought.
She is amazing.
- I seem to remember that,
in the end of "Aladdin,"
Jasmine is not a princess,
she is the emperor.
And this world needs to
see some women ruling.
We need to understand, we need to be okay,
we need to recognize that
until we can see leadership
coming from women, we might not have
the change that we want.
- Uh-huh.
- I'm going to pick
Jasmine from "Aladdin."
- I'm choosing Tiana, man.
I spent some time in New
Orleans at the top of this year.
They're just, I think
they're my favorite people
in this country, like, you know, oh shoot.
I'm from Philly, I love Philly.
You know, I love everybody,
but there's really something special,
there's something
special about the accent,
there's something special about the food,
and the way of life in New Orleans.
I was there, I fell in love a little bit.
So I'm choosing Tiana.
- Pick a song for karaoke.
"Hey Ya," OutKast,
"Single Ladies," Beyonce,
"No Scrubs," TLC, "Toxic," Britney Spears,
"We Belong Together," Mariah Carey,
"Bye Bye Bye," 'N Sync,
"Rolling in the Deep," Adele,
or "I Wanna Dance With
Somebody," Whitney Houston.
- I didn't hear anything
after "No Scrubs."
- Oh, dear.
"Toxic," Britney Spears, "We Belong-
- Oh, no, no, no, meaning like,
once you said, "No Scrubs," I was done.
- Oh, you were done.
- That's my choice. (laughs)
- For just the fact that there's a 2/4 bar
in the middle of a 4/4 song,
I'm picking "Hey Ya" by OutKast.
- It's gotta be "Hey Ya," right?
Gotta love the Kast.
- "Hey Ya," I'm doing "Hey Ya," OutKast.
3000, ATLiens, upping this.
- "Toxic" for me.
- "Bye Bye Bye" all day long, come on.
- Know what?
I'll pick "Rolling in the Deep."
- I'd probably pick, "I
Wanna Dance With Somebody,"
just so I can put the emphasis
on somebody, you know?
♪ I wanna dance with somebody ♪
♪ I wanna feel the heat with somebody ♪
- I like to go left a
little bit in karaoke
and sing a song that is unexpected,
but outta these songs, I would probably
sing the little Britney Spears song.
Maybe I could do a
little something with it.
Now tell us your favorite Hamilton song.
Is it "Yorktown," is it "Wait For It,"
is it "Satisfied," is it "Guns and Ships,"
is it "Non-Stop," "You'll Be Back,"
is it "Helpless," or
is it "One Last Time"?
- Mean, it's a mean question.
- Yo, Chris sings that "One
Last Time" in the movie, though.
Y'all.
- Yes.
- Oh my gosh, he does.
- It's a new favorite 'cause of that.
- He sang that song.
- "Wait For It" is one of
my favorite, favorite songs.
You sang that every night, man.
I think it's such a beautiful song, so.
- No, I'm gonna choose the "Non-Stop."
It's a jam, but there's
also storytelling in it.
I love that it involves everybody.
Like I love everybody's piece in it.
- "Wait For It."
- "Wait For It."
- Yeah, "Wait For It," hands down.
That's the banger, that's
the banger on the album.
- I think we all know where we're going
with that one, right?
"One Last Time."
- I could pick any of
these on any given day,
but today, I will pick "Wait For It."
- "Satisfied."
- Finally, which character
would you trust with a secret?
Aaron Burr, George Washington,
Hercules Mulligan, Philip Hamilton,
Angelica Schuyler, Eliza Hamilton,
Peggy Schuyler, Alexander Hamilton.
- Eliza Schuyler, all day, every day.
- I have to agree with you.
I try to be a contrarian, but
I'm also going with Eliza.
- Probably gonna pick Angelica Schuyler,
'cause you know, she keeps secrets
- I'd have to go with the
spy, Hercules Mulligan.
I think he could keep-
- Ooh.
- A secret.
- I would trust Angelica Schuyler.
- I would trust Burr. Like-
- I could see that.
- My man don't talk barely.
I mean, he talks to himself only.
- I would do Hercules Mulligan,
'cause he was a spy on the inside.
- I was gonna pick Eliza,
but I'm gonna pick Peggy.
- I feel all these people
have snitching tendencies.
Like I feel like-
- I know!
They do!
- You know what I mean?
'Cause they wrote letters, dude,
they all were super gossipy!
Eliza might be the one.
If I had to tell her a secret,
Eliza would keep it.
I'm choosing Eliza, boom.
(light hip-hop music)
- I got Thomas Jefferson and
Flynn Rider from "Tangled."
- I got Aaron Burr and
Aladdin from "Aladdin."
- Hey!
- Hey, we are brother and sister, Leslie.
- I got Thomas Jefferson and
Flynn Rider from "Tangled."
- It turns out, folks, that
I got Angelica Schuyler
and Megara from "Hercules."
- I got Angelica and Meg from "Hercules."
- I got Thomas Jefferson and
Flynn Rider from "Tangled."
- I got Philip Hamilton-
- Let's go!
- And Simba.
- That is so dope.
- That's a crazy combo.
Hold up.
- Yeah.
They work so well together.
- You got Thomas Jefferson and
Flynn Rider from "Tangled."
I think it's funny that
we took different choices
every time, and still
got the same results.
- What kind of test is this?
- Tommy-
- It's a very wide algorithm.
- We took different
routes to the same place.
- Reminds me of-
- I choose to celebrate that.
