Summary
This week, Tommy is joined by actress Alicia Silverstone, who has been bringing joy to both the big and small screens for the past three decades. This year marks the 30th anniversary of her beloved film Clueless, in which she portrayed Cher—one of the most iconic roles in pop culture history. Coming to Netflix on November 12 is her new Christmas movie, A Merry Little Ex-Mas, a must-see this holiday season.
Today, Alicia opens up about why she believes she’s had such longevity in Hollywood, why she gravitates toward roles that challenge her, and how she’s never really pursued the traditional Hollywood dream. She also shares why reading the script for A Merry Little Ex-Mas made her cry, her own holiday traditions, the constant juggling act of being a mom and having a career, and what she’s most proud of in creating the character of Cher in Clueless. Plus, Alicia reflects on the Cher quotes she finds herself saying lately, why there’s never been a serious conversation about a Clueless sequel, how she nurtures her mind, body, and spirit, what she hopes to continue, stop, and start doing in the new year, and so much more.
