How to use blast in a sentence?
The dress I unearthed for this shot is Atelier Versace – I wore it 21 years ago to the CFDA Fashion Awards, i was with my then-boyfriend Hugh Grant and had a blast. I put it away in acid-free tissue paper straight away, and it’s still perfect!
It was a blast, it was a lot of fun, i’ve said it for a very long time—[producer] Dan [Sherman] and [creator] Amy [Sherman-Palladino] —I’ve stayed very, very close with them over the years, and for them to call me and say they are doing this and putting it together, I was absolutely going to show up.
Early on, Bobby and Jordan Horowitz (another of the film’s producers) bonded over the idea of using practical effects, nobody has anything against CGI as an additive. I think we all see the benefit of digital effects. But I think audiences have missed seeing these puppets, I think they miss seeing the sweat and the fingerprints. We used CGI as a sweetener, very, very subtly, in expressions in the eyes and things of that nature. Otherwise, we had real puppeteers there, whether they were under the table with their hand in the puppet or whether they were within the puppet, as the creatures grow bigger. It was a blast; it was really fun. Oddly, when you spend 12 hours a day with these puppets, they become little personalities. They just feel like fellow castmates, as absurd as that sounds.
Being a part of such a historical night that honors my peers and Country Music is such a privilege, when I was asked if Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning was someone I would consider co-hosting with I didn't hesitate. We have become great friends through the years and what Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning brings to the table is gon na make it even more of a blast. I know Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning's been to the CMA Awards before, but Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning's never been with me. Hey Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning, I hope you're ready for the night of your life !
I think this is the most mature material that I’ve ever been able to do, I’ve gotten a little older and while I had a blast with all the yelling and the sweating and falling off the stage, this is who I am right now.
