CHRISTOPH WALTZ

Trouble Funk - Let's Get Small
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB6K1lw3t-M

Why? The movie Downsizing he's prompting is about shrinking people down very small. (Could be used for anyone promoting it.)

Beanie Feldstein:

(is in Lady Bird)


Cardi B:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVraJbBkCi0

(name connection)

Christoph Waltz
Eydie Gorme's "My World Keeps Getting Smaller Everyday"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5l2RRgbbsU
He's in DOWNSIZING and the song can be about eliminating things towards getting what you need. Which could lead me to INXS' "What You Need" but no. I'm sticking with Eydie Gorme. This is a Neil Sedaka song.


Beanie Feldstein
Nelly Furtado's "I'm Like A Bird"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roPQ_M3yJTA
REASON: LADY BIRD


Cardi B
Queen Latifah's "U.N.I.T.Y."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8cHxydDb7o
REASON: I was going to suggest Dr. Dooom's "Bitch Gets No Love" but I thought I'll go for this and then someone can spell her name before yelling out "WHO YOU CALLIN' A BITCH?"

Amy Sedaris
#1: Lighter Shade of Brown - Homies
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-L4zl6aJHMs


Why? She's true to the game and she's down with her homies. (Her show is called "At home" so I assume the fans are called Homies.)

Kelly's Heroes - Burning Bridges

Jason Sudeikis:

(could be used for anyone this week promoting that movie.)


Amy Sedaris:
"Celebrate Me Home" - Kenny Loggins
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bfyS-S-IJs

(it's the season and her show is called At Home With Amy Sedaris)

Jason Sudeikis
Eydie Gorme's "My World Keeps Getting Smaller Everyday"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5l2RRgbbsU
He's in DOWNSIZING and the song can be about eliminating things towards getting what you need. Which could lead me to INXS' "What You Need" but no. I'm sticking with Eydie Gorme. This is a Neil Sedaka song.

ALTERNATE PICK:
Roger Miller's "Less And Less"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ck6pfzVlWwY
REASON: The song is about loving someone less and less as time goes on but in this case, the idea is to match it with the film he's in, DOWNSIZING, the idea being as they shrink things and become "less and less", he is actually loving her more, thus:

"I got up and made my morning cup of coffee
Fooled around the house an hour or more I'd guess
L did all this before l even had one thought of you
More and more l think about you less and less

So the more he thinks about her, it goes in play with them getting rid of the non-essentials.






Amy Sedaris
Clara Hill's "That Easy"
https://youtu.be/Lan64_qH688?t=50s
REASON: I've suggested this song before, I'll try it for her since it's fitting. Her show is called AT HOME, thus:

"...and if you're in that familiar mood and it feels so quiet inside
you can hear your own thoughts sleeping
then you are at home, I can feel it
I'm at home"

Thus, by the song the words "I'm at home" is sung, she will begin to sit for the interview.

Insecure Me · Soft Cell
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2m4IO_uDWE

Anderson Cooper & Andy Cohen:
"What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?" - written by Frank Loesser, first performed by The Orioles, most famously covered by Ella Fitzgerald.

The Orioles- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lgtk79GQlA
Ella Fitzgerald- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFdfzNMV52Q

Issa Rae:
"All Falls Down" - Kanye West
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kyWDhB_QeI

Just for the Insecure reference:

Man I promise, she's so self conscious
She has no idea what she's doing in college
That major that she majored in don't make no money
But she won't drop out, her parents will look at her funny
Now, tell me that ain't insecure
The concept of school seems so secure
Sophomore three years aint picked a career
She like fuck it, I'll just stay down here and do hair
Cause that's enough money to buy her a few pairs of new Airs
Cause her baby daddy don't really care
She's so precious with the peer pressure
Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter Alexus
She had hair so long that it looked like weave
Then she cut it all off now she look like Eve
And she be dealing with some issues that you can't believe
Single black female addicted to retail and well

Anderson Cooper & Andy Cohen
Talk Talk's "Talk Talk"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hHnOBlwU3A
REASON: They are talk show hosts and this is "Talk Talk" by Talk Talk from their album, TALK TALK. I've suggested it many times for Cohen, I'll try it with Cooper.



Issa Rae
En Vogue's "No No No (Can't Come Back)"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnSciiGwrPU
REASON: She's in INSECURE, thus...

"No bad feelings, no no no
No sad feelings, no no no
No jealous feelings, no no no
No insecure feelings
No no no, can't come back
No ill feelings, no no no"
