Recalling the shoot, the 33-year-old said, “We love this special, we love how much laughter he brings to everyone. And it was so much fun. Actually, what you saw was an hour. We were there for four to five hours. My heart rate tracker said I was very stressed because I think it’s not normal to laugh that much.”
