Demi Moore, Hollywood icon and eternal keeper of 90s bangs perfection, spilled some saucy tea while munching on even saucier wings during her recent stop at Hot Ones. Because why just cry over a pottery wheel when you can cry over a jalapeño-laced meltdown, right?
While Sean Evans kept the heat coming (literally), Demi dove headfirst into the fiery chat and let us in on her unique career philosophy: big risks = big rewards (or colossal chaos). Case in point? Her legendary movie Ghost, which nearly made her believe she was starring in a potential cinematic car crash.
“It had all these different genres mashed together,” Demi said, casually nibbling on what we assume was a wing hotter than Patrick Swayze in 1990. “I mean, romance, thriller, comedy, ghost pottery lessons? I thought, ‘This could either make everyone cry into their popcorn or explode into a f—ing disaster.’” Imagine almost being the face of a disaster where ghosts flirt through clay and Whoopi Goldberg out-sasses spirits!
But Demi wasn’t scared of a gamble—oh no! “That’s the kind of thing that makes you roll the dice. Step in. Risk it all. Pray that the ghost doesn’t actually haunt you,” she joked (probably). Spoiler: the dice rolled right into box office history.
Demi didn’t stop there—she got philosophical, waxing poetic about the future of cinema like it was her next Oscar-worthy monologue. “I think we’re all Netflix zombies now. The risk is losing the cinema experience, and let’s be real, nothing beats a sticky theater floor and popcorn fights,” she said, basically calling us all out.
Sure, she loves streaming—who doesn’t enjoy watching Indecent Proposal for the 74th time while in pajamas? But she hopes we can all find a way to stumble back into theaters for that magical communal experience. You know, where you awkwardly cry together over a ghost saying “ditto.”
Demi Moore—forever the queen of risk, romance, and reminding us all that sometimes, disaster-level risks make movie magic. Or, in her words, “Roll the dice, and maybe you’ll end up a timeless classic. Or at least covered in hot sauce on YouTube.”
