My Weekend Crush

If you are still staying as safe as much as humanly possible while the rest of the world goes hog wild, please treat your to this continued self-isolation delight. You’ve earned these 40 minutes of Cate Blanchett and Sarah Paulson doing an Instagram Live chat together for W magazine to ostensibly promote their Hulu series “Mrs. America.” But really it was just an excuse for these two supremely talented ladies to gab like the rest of us when we’re goofing off with our BFFs on a Zoom while drinking chardonnay alone in quarantine.

Also, you get to hear them being nosy about each other’s video conference background wall art, confessing to not wearing pants/only wearing elasticized pants while in lockdown, revealing the shocking truth about Cate’s “blue business” and saying “Hey, gays!” to make all of our little hearts go pitter-patter. Also, they pretend confirm the “Carol” sequel of our dreams, with the obvious working title of “Cabby”. Tease us, why don’t you, ladies. No, really, please keep teasing and talking to us.

So, come on, what are you waiting for? Start your weekend off right by pampering yourself with these 40 minutes. You’re continuing to flatten the curve, staying home as much as you can and wearing a mask when you can’t. You’ve earned this. Happy safe and healthy weekend, all.
