The Lautners: Team Taylor [VIDEO]

Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.

I'm Taylor Lautner Bella.

Where the hell have you been, Loca? Who's Taylor Lautner, Taylor Lautner?

It's the Taylor Lautner effect. He's got a great ass.

Massive pile of Hokey man meat.

They don't even ask, no, they just reach over and just start touching me. He took his shirt off.

I dated Taylor Swift, Do you have a girlfriend? My name is Tay.

My wife, Tay Lautner, was a nurse through Covid Start Nursing at the beginning of 2020. She's incredible.

From that came a non-profit, from that this podcast.

We got married and now share the same exact name. I'm happy because of what it's taught me.

My biggest goal in life is to help people.

It is your founding father, Alex Cooper. We call her daddy, Taylor and Tay Lautner. But now I learned, Fuck, I'm going to fuck this up, Okay, what is it? It's Lautner.

It is.

Okay, hold on, Taylor and Tay Lautner. Welcome to call her daddy. Thank you. thank you. We need to talk.

I know.

Okay, so to everyone that is basically like me growing up, there's Taylor Lautner.

Like Taylor Lautner, Taylor Lautner, Taylor Lautner.

As you guys are walking in, someone in my house just goes, You know, it's not Lautner, it's Lautner, Taylor.

Childhood is I know, I know.

Can you explain to me what a real asshole? No, no, you're not.

It really is all my fault. I spent literally a decade just not correcting people. I don't know. Just everybody decided it was Lautner, and I was just, I never stopped anybody. I never was just like, Hey, it's Lautner.

We still do that.

I don't say Lautner, I say, hey, it's Taylor Lautner. Calling it helps.

I was going to say, if I was that hostess and you said, Hey, it's Taylor Lautner, I'd be like, Well, I wish it was Taylor Lautner. Yeah, you wouldn't get the rest.

I know.

Does your family think it's weird that you went with it?

My sister gives me a lot of crap. I'm sure my grandparents are back in Michigan, but it is all my fault. I go with anything but definitely my fault.

I'm just processing because it'd be like, if I was like, it actually is Alex Copper. But I've never given that clarification for all my years. It's a little bit of a mind fuck.

I know, I know.

I'm really sorry, okay, but now I'm sorry if I also fuck it up again. So I'm just going to intentionally not going to say the last name for the rest of the episode. Okay, done, done, Taylor and Tay.

Yep, that works.

To give people context, we've met before, once, briefly at the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. And I remember. I'm sitting in my dressing room and I'm like, Ooh, I have to pee? And I ask the PA woman. I'm like, Do you think I can go to the bathroom? and she's like, Not. Right now, Taylor's in the he's in the hallway and I'm like, Okay, I don't have beef with Taylor.

Lautner Okay.

All good here. She's like, No, no, no, he's practicing his flips and I'm like, what the fuck? And I'm sitting there. Like, I brought no party tricks. And then I had brought my dog and I wasn't sure if I was going to bring him on stage. And I'm like, Oh, you're fucking coming with me, Henry?

You have no choice now.

This guy is flipping.

Literally, I'm like, Taylor's flipping and I'm in like a mini skirt, just like, Oh, we're pulling out the tricks. Yeah, you made me look really bad.

Thanks for that, I'm sincerely sorry, but I did. I literally was like, just starting to do like a round off back, handspring or whatever. And I saw you and your robe come around the corner and I was like, Oh, no, this is going to be an awkward introduction.

So casual, just doing a round off back handspring. Did you do a lot of those type of things growing up, like, were you a gymnast?

I did this stuff called extreme martial arts. I did do some gymnastics, but martial arts was a big part of my early years. Before I started acting, that is like what I did.

Like, worked out in acting, because then he's like doing flips and does he do it around the house?

With tequila woo.

That's true, it does need a little encouragement these days.

It makes me nervous. I mean, all of our friends know that he does it, so we'll be out somewhere we'll be having.

A wine night, even, and we'll turn into a dance party. They know what they're doing, they egg it on, and they know if they bring me a drink or two, what's going to happen?

You get a little sauced up and all of a sudden Taylor's like, everybody, move to the side, here we go.

Yeah.

Here we go.

I start flipping and dancing like a stripper.

Yep, yeah.

Yeah, pretty accurate. I love that for you.

It's concerning, but yep.

Okay, let's talk about the fact that, yes, you guys have now the same name, you have the same first names, Taylor, and then you have the same last name now, Lautner or Lautner. However, you guys want to fucking say it, okay? Can you tell me one of the most outrageous things that's ever happened with you guys having the same first name and last name and getting mixed up?

I feel like, See, I wish I had a really outstanding story for you. The truth is, I think I'm thankful that one. Taylor is a somewhat, it's a popular name. I've had multiple co-stars named Taylor. I dated a Taylor or two.

TSA is like, we'll give them our IDs and they're like, Okay, Taylor? and we're like, Yeah, and they're like, but. And we're like, Yeah, and then they look and they're like.

Oh, but which one's Taylor Lautner? And we're like, it's both of us.

Say it correctly.

I said it like the TSA person would say it. Taylor LaUtner Sorry, now you're going to fuck me up again.

I'm like, How do I say it again?

The whole thing is fascinating, it is a bizarre thing.

But I love it and I love that you guys have fun with it and I love that also. Like you said, you're a vet, you've had Taylor in your lives. It's all like there's something with this name that's close to heart, and I'm so happy you guys have made it work.

Good question. We were also together for almost five years before we got married. We got engaged at four, married at five, so we had a lot of living experience and we got through that aspect of the relationship.

Before, I feel like we went through a lot of life of Covid and both of us dealing with a lot of mental health things. Then we figured out communication and those things that I feel like a lot of people figure out their first year of marriage. We know how the other works in an argument, or how if one's feeling stressed, what the other one needs. So I feel like that kind of helped prepare us.

I felt the same way with my relationship, which I would encourage anyone listening to do ladies specifically, because I have a lot of women. It's like, I think that there's a lot of pressure to get married and then you're like, we'll figure it out when we get married. I really think it's important to figure it out before you get married, because everything just gets. It gets worse. If there's something before you get married, it will just only get worse when you're together.

Could not agree more. I think a lot of people think that if there is any sort of problem or whatever that getting married will fix that. I don't know if that's the case, but I wouldn't think it is.

I think it only complicates it totally a little more.

So we have to talk about twilight.

Yes.

And I think when I was thinking of this interview, I did want to also just ask you. I've had a couple people on my show before that. They will always be tied to some franchise that everyone is so obsessed with and loves so much. And I have a lot of empathy for the actors because I know that it's not that they don't also love it so much, or maybe they don't. But it's like it's always going to be asked, every interview people want to know. And so I just wanted to first say, how do you even feel about it when someone's like, let's talk about twilight?

I only feel great feelings towards the franchise and everything it's given me. It's definitely like there's pros and cons to what it gave me, but the pros far outweigh the cons. But it just took a journey after the franchise was over with figuring out who I really am and what is truly important to me in life. Yeah, but no, I'm very, very thankful for that franchise.

No, and I appreciate you sharing that because I can imagine having so much of your public identity wrapped up in something and people loving something so much. It's a lot to be like, Wait, who am I outside of this character? and who am I outside of? What do I want to do next in my career? I don't want to just stop there. And I think it's amazing that you guys have started your podcast, The Squeeze, which we're going to talk about.

Sharkboy, Have you seen that?

Are you kidding me?

Sharkboy and Lava Girl.

I don't want to bring it up, but obviously Taylor.

Let's go many moons ago.

Okay, so just a couple questions about twilight that I just want to go through for all of my millennial girls that are just like, give it to them.

You've got a giant twihard right here.

Thank you.

But die hard team Edward.

Yeah, we got to talk about that because-.

You are, too.

I was about to say-.

That's fine, I understand, I get it, I've watched him back, he's a little whiny.

I was going to say, yeah, but I didn't want you to be grouped up on. It's not fair that we're all sitting here and being like, Well, yeah, but team Edward, I loved you in it, but come on the yeah, you know?

Yeah.

Can I ask you what was your favorite one to film?

To film.

And do you know that he wasn't actually supposed to be Jacob through the rest of the franchise?

Wait, they were going to take you out.

Yeah, they called me and said, Thank you for your participation, but we are recasting you for the rest of the franchise.

What because they thought you were so bad, you were great.

My character in the first book is supposed to be like the 16-year-old little scrawny boy. And then, in the middle of New Moon, he transforms into this 25-year-old looking built, muscular man. So their plan just all along was to cast a 16-year-old, which they did. I was 16 at the time. And then they were going to cast a mid-20s guy to carry on and be Jacob for the rest of the franchise.

Hit the gym.

Yeah, thankfully, I started that process the second we stopped filming the first movie.

Yeah, because he had already known that that was coming, so they were like, we're going.

To get ahead of this.

I read the books.

So I knew well, if I want to continue playing him, I got to do something.

Wow.

So I was ready. So when we got that call, my team was like, have you seen him recently? and we were like, No, why? And they're like, Well, you may want to take a meeting with him or something. And I had been like, hardcore working out for about nine months at this point, probably had about 20 or 25 pounds, added at that point.

Also, I can only imagine which we'll get to. When you guys started dating, where you like, tell me everything, tell me everything, like, let's go tell me all the details. The behind the scenes, yeah.

I feel like I've wanted to.

I've said things that have ruined it for you.

No, no, no, not, no, I just I like to think it's magical.

Do you know how annoyingly cool is a cucumber with stuff like this? Like when we first started dating, like she was like a diehard twilight fan, she like, loves Justin Bieber, like all this stuff. And like, as soon as she started meeting some of these people and hanging, she could, like, care less that they're in the room.

And I also think, I bet you when you first started dating too. It's like this natural feeling of like, you don't want to be like a creeper. Being like, tell me everything, cause then you're going to be like, okay, well, I don't want to date you because, like, stop being like a fan. So it's like a moment where you know the relationship's real. I'm with Lautner, let me talk about Lautner now.

No, no, no, no form of entertainment in my family.

What?

And he lived out here.

I love that you give that detail every time.

It's a pretty specific, but fabulous detail. It's a great detail.

It's so funny.

He was the Blue Power Ranger.

That's huge, yeah.

He was the coolest person, like in the world to me, of course, and he and he, he, he kept like pushing me. He kept being like, Are you sure you don't want to give this acting thing a shot? I think you'd be great.

Did you have any issues after Shark Boy? Of feeling like, who did I talk to recently? That was like, Yeah, I got like, made fun, oh, cole sprouse was like, all the time my brother and I, people were like, you're gay, you're this, you're that.

That was my high school. Yeah, yeah, I did Shark Boy. And then cheaper by the dozen 2, like, kind of back to back.

He got thrown in a trash can.

I honestly think I have just like, completely erased out some of the things that have happened to me.

We were like deep talking one night, I think, and he told me that I was like, Wait, what? and he was like, Yeah, I was like, what?

The one that I remember most is during PE. Two guys picked me up and put me like up against the locker. And one of them just took his fist and punched me in my balls as hard as he could. And I thought my testicle popped, of course.

That's worse than the trash can.

I know.

That is worse than the trash can.

I know I literally went into the stall and I was making sure it didn't pop.

Dude.

TAYLOR So yeah, that was high school. Thank you sharkboy.

And when that was happening and you were getting bullied for that, like, are they saying like, stuff about Sharkboy, like it's all based in like, your...?

Yeah, I mean, yeah, it would go well beyond that, like you said. But yeah. I'd be like walking across the campus and just like, look over, and there'd be like a pack of five seniors and they would just go.

What do you remember in those moments when those kids are doing that, like, what do you remember feeling?

Like, there's no way I'm going to go back and continue doing this like it made me want to quit.

Did you doubt taking it at all, and did you have any concept of the fandom before you took it?

No concept, no. People told me like these books are pretty popular. I was like, Hmm, OK, yeah, I've never heard of them.

It's so interesting to remember, like, Team Edward, Team Jacob and the dynamic, how hard people went for those teams. I remember girls in my school getting in actual fights, being like, Fuck you, you're Team Edward, I'm Jacob, and it's like, there are t-shirts.

Yeah, I think it was tough, I don't know for him, but for me at least, yeah, it definitely. Like, especially at the age I was at, like, you get your feelings hurt sometimes when you shouldn't, but it's hard not to sometimes. But yeah, it was a little difficult.

It was just so much back then and a lot of us. Commoners. TAYLOR Okay, we can't comprehend what overnight success feels like. Can you kind of just paint the picture of you as a human when your life transformed because of twilight? Like, what happened, what was going on?

Yeah, I think the biggest part is when you're in the middle of it, like when that overnight success happens, that overnight fame happens, you can't process it when you're like, in it. So it kind of just it happened and I thought everything was awesome. Like, you know, yeah, there's like 12 paparazzi cars following me, but it's cool, it's fun.

What makes you sad?

I think I think the loneliness is probably the biggest part of it. And I think the number one thing that happened, for me at least, is when it happens like that. Your walls just go up like this immediately. And you just try to protect anything close to you and those you know, those close to you in your life. And doing that really prevents yourself from experiencing so much life, and it's understandable why, like, I did that, but it does cause extreme loneliness.

The paparazzi has died down. It's not this craziness where you, like, can't leave your house, thank God. Was there ever a moment there where, like, you wanted it back? Like, can you try to explain that feeling?

Of course, yeah, I think that is what that is, what needed to happen for me to realize I'm putting my self-worth in the wrong place. Because that's that's exactly what happened. Is, you know, you, when you, when you start with something that big and successful, you have this, this massive target on your back. And if you do a movie or something that doesn't do so well, it's just like magnified and people destroy you for it. And that that is what happened to me.

Yeah, that is so interesting, like the constant, like shirtless. Everyone loved it. We're all like, Oh, he's so hot. This is so fun. And people just staring at you and kind of like, sexualizing you at a young age and staring at you and posters and cutouts of you with your abs.

Much better, but certainly not perfect.

The difference in like, we've been together now for six years and like when we first started dating. To like, where he is now, like, the growth of like, how he views himself is like, insane, like. It's really cool to like, have watched him, like, go through that because like, I could, like, I mean, obviously like. We can never imagine like, going through that. But it's been really cool to like, see the change in him.

I'm curious when you guys started dating because of us being twi-hards and meeting him. Like, did you ever feel at all? Because of the fixation on the way he looked and people obsessed with him, like, did you ever have any self-doubt about the way you looked? Like, Am I good enough?

Definitely, I feel like actually more so, like recently, I know I've been struggling.

Been tougher as of recently?

Yeah.

I know I feel like I feel that way with you too. Tay's very, very confident in general, which is one of the things I love most about her. But yeah.

I think because of recently, over the past, like year or two, we've definitely like.

You're on call her daddy.

Literally this here we are, I mean, we were. I mean, I was just telling him, like, in the car on the way over here, I was like,....

I appreciate you sharing that because I feel like it's always difficult. Which I think this is why you guys have become so successful as this couple in your podcast. It's like it's so intimidating to ever talk about something that is happening in the moment.

Give me a second to.

You guys are so freaking cute. Let's talk about your love story. Tay, can you tell me like, how did you guys meet? what happened? How did you meet this man?

Yeah, his sister, actually. I had met her a couple times through a mutual friend and both times were in like, very group settings. And after the second time, she had called Taylor.

She did tell me that.

Yeah, yeah.

And.

And even like, I was confused when I got the invite because our like mutual friend, who's like my childhood best friend. She was like, you know, McKenna, his sister is very protective of Taylor, like, obviously so, and she just had, like, told me that she's very protective of him. And so when McKenna had texted me and my girlfriend like, Hey, you want to come over to my brother's for a game night?

There was a bigger plan.

Yeah, which I did not know, so I went over there fully, just like I was going to, like, play games. That's why I wasn't like I had just gotten out of a relationship.

And we played a game of running charades together and never looked back. No.

Okay, what was your first impression of Tay?

First impression First impression was that she was very beautiful, but I really think it was. It is true we joke about it, but I really think like our first chemistry together was playing, running charades and just realizing that we just like, can banter.

It's always been like, very comfortable.

What was your first impression of him?

I think that he was, I always say, I think, going in like going into, like our first few hangouts. I had no clue that he was like, interested in me.

It took her a long time.

Yeah, also because I wasn't like looking for it, so I wasn't like, you know, and he, I would say Taylor is like the most respectful person like ever that I've ever dated. And that's like, the biggest thing I always say is my favorite thing about him is how he respects me.

What she really means is, I don't have game, no stop.

You keep saying that.

You're a nice gentleman, that's not a dick, I say, if you could.

No, no, if you could like type up qualities that a girl would want in a guy, it would be that.

Did you have any misconceptions about Taylor? Just like being famous guy, you know, werewolf, shark, boy, like the guy the world knows like that. You eventually figured out, like, Oh, I thought, I thought I was going to think this, and I didn't.

Yeah, I think it's hard, because like, he is so normal, like you wouldn't know he's famous if you didn't know he was famous. And like, it was kind of like, obviously, I walked into his house, I was like, Wow, this is a nice ass house.

Oh, he's rich.

But.

I love the honesty you're like, Oh, I could get used to this.

But he's just like, Nice.

Like, you're probably in, like, freaking, like joggers and a t-shirt, just like.

Probably a onesie.

Honestly, probably a onesie. He's just like chill and laid back. So I think, maybe I don't know, I'm trying to remember, like, if I even like, gave it, thought about it.

That's such a good point, too. Because it's already like, if you have a friend that's connecting you with, like, here's my sibling, we're all going to just be hanging out. It's already like, Oh, you don't cross the boundary. But clearly your sister was like, let's make this happen.

Catch feelings pretty quickly, but I feel like there was light treading on both sides. Her for, like the brother thing, and her friend me, you know, she was younger.

Yeah, okay, slow down. Hi, I'm over here. Look at you two, like looking at each other's eyes.

And then I'm like, no back up, no rewind.

Rewind Okay, hold on.

After the group hangouts, who made the first move to be like, let's go on a date.

Yeah.

So I would say, we. The date came after the kiss, oh.

New Year's Eve.

This is actually a really fun story. Bring us to New Year's Eve. I haven't told this story in a while. I still am like, don't really. I think there's part of me that thinks that he likes me, but I'm just like, there's no way.

Because for the last like two weeks, we'd been texting nonstop, like during the day.

He followed me on Instagram and my dad was like, he likes you. My dad has never done this in my entire life, ever. My dad multiple times kept telling me that Taylor liked me and I was like, Dad, no, like, he's just like nice, he's just friendly.

But the ball had dropped.

The ball is dropping. We were at Taylor's for New Year's.

And have you been like vibing that night? For sure.

Yeah, yeah, this has been probably, you know, six hours up until this point. I feel like there's a lot. You know, there's some clues here, she's going to put these context clues together.

I didn't move.

She would not move, she wouldn't look at me.

She probably took I was literally that.

I was literally just like you can, like, feel his peck here.

And you're like, literally, well, I literally. What was going through my mind was, am I like, what if I turn around right now? And he's like, What are you doing?

That's fair, it kind of sucks that you weren't making eye contact, because then you could, even if you were standing next to each other, you could look up.

But for her to like, swing around.

And you're like, bitch, back up.

Calm down. And we were next to, like his friends, who, like, were a couple, but like, weren't, and they didn't kiss either. So they were just standing there and so I was just like frozen.

So yeah, it was awkward at that moment and then, like, an hour later.

That's what happened.

No, you have to tell me the details, like, how did it, guys? I love this. It's call her daddy, okay, so you get basically not rejected.

We're laying down. It's, you know, starting to get tired, like on the couch or something, It's a big couch.

Yeah, we were talking for a while and it just like, kept like, inching and inching and inching.

And then she does like to say that she did the final lean in, and I let her have it.

Well, you can let her have it because you had the intention when the ball was dropping, Taylor.

Yeah, I was ready and we had to, like, cram dates in because we kissed. And three weeks later, I was leaving to London to film a show and I was like, I like, I think this is real. So I want to get to know her enough so that she can maybe like, come visit me.

Who said I love you first?

Me.

Then, like immediately after.

Where and when? LonDon Yeah, on the London trip.

Yeah, so he.

You flew over on Valentine's Day.

I did fly on Valentine's Day, my first time ever flying first class.

You're like, I knew, I knew once I saw the house, I was like, put me in, coach, let's go.

You're a bad girl. It was literally like a whirlwind. It was really cool though, because, like we, he left and probably, I mean, a couple weeks went by, but I mean, that whole time we could only, like, talk on the phone.

Like, he seems, she's 20..

I'm 20 at this point, I'm about to turn 21. But I get to the airport, there's like the British Airways, like lounge, and the ticketing lady who's checking my bag, she's like, I'm so sorry.

Totally.

And she's like, I can give you a meal voucher. I was like, Oh my gosh, that's great, so I literally.

Gets a $12 meal voucher and goes and gets herself a stale, disgusting sandwich, a pre-made sandwich from a shop. Because she thought she needed to eat before getting on the plane, because she didn't realize she could eat on the plane.

It was a long trip. I was like, I'm going to need to get some food.

This is epic. Keep going, keep going, keep going.

And okay, so I'm like, you know, I get on the plane and they hand you a glass of champagne. As you walk on the plane. My first thought is, I'm not 21. Is this okay?

They're like, would you like us make your bed for you?

Yeah, they're like, let us know when you want, like, here's your pajamas, let us know when you like, you want your bed made. And I was like, Oh, no, it's fine, like, you don't need to do that. So I have. Before we get on the plane, I don't know that there's a meal service.

Alex is going to love this part.

I stand up to grab my like luggage and I look on the other side of the plane. On the window. It is Mr. Team Edward himself. Rob is literally across the row from me on this plane.

I was like, she saw me, I was like, Did you say hello? She's like, No, do you think he would have believed me? I'm dating Taylor Lautner.

She's like, get out of here.

No, isn't that so funny?

I know I was like, so that was like, meant to be, though it was like a sign, yeah.

He's like, you didn't eat the food.

She got there, I was like, because I didn't tell her anything going in, so she gets there and I'm like, how was everything? Tell me about it?

When I had gotten to the hotel, he was like, standing out there. I had a driver with my name, I had never had a driver before, never seen someone with my name. I'm being driven to this beautiful hotel in London, which I've never been.

She wouldn't speak, she's like, I don't know what to do right now. I need to go, like, write in a journal or something and just remember all of this. That is like every girl's dream of, just like, Whoa?

Yeah.

And then it was like.

Yeah, it was over from there.

Wow, you guys and now you're happily married and here we go. Okay, you mentioned at the beginning of this episode, so I just have to bring it up.

Yeah.

And the Swifties just named you Taylor Swift's best ex.

Is that real?

Yeah, okay, yeah, so congratulations, thank you.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, young.

Yeah, but we stayed friendly, we would see each other now and then, but we then did fall out of touch and we didn't talk for a while. But I've always had the deepest respect for who she is as a person before anything else.

There are sometimes those relationships where it's like, all good and chill. Obviously yours is different because it's like there were songs written about you and the world knew about you. Guys. Isn't back to December, was it? I go back to December?

Oh, you don't want to know?

But did.

Yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

Yeah, okay, okay.

It was.

I'm curious, obviously, again, like, this is someone that we grew up and love and listened to her music. And I know you're a swiftie and so like, how has it been for you? Just like having Taylor be cordial and chill with an ex that sure is like, you're a fan of. We're all fans of her.

I mean, it's honestly all her, she just makes it so easy and literally. Before, like before, we had even gone to like film, the music video. She was always like, even the first text that she sent him when she was like, pitching the idea. She like, included me in it, and she, like, is so inclusive of me in everything, which is so like, kind of her, but she's just kind.

You know what we need, we need a double date with her. Travis and the Taylors, Oh my god, that's three tables at a table and Travis Kelsey walking to a bar, can you imagine?

I mean, he would love that because he's a big football guy.

Oh, yeah, that would be fun. Listen, I just think it's so cute and I think, obviously you guys get it like there's such a fascination with.

I'm like, Bravo. They want the drama, they want the oh, this isn't, you know, that's what the media wants, but it's been really cool to see that.

They want a shot of you paparazzi, like crying outside of the stadium, like it's not going to happen, like, let us live our dream, okay, like we're all happy, okay, we're going to play a game.

Okay.

Who is? And then you're going to answer, Okay, who is needier?

Say it out loud for the group boy Taylor.

Yeah, I know.

In what ways?

All of them go ahead. In what ways I'm working on it? No, you're a lot better.

I love this, I love this. You're like, Come on, let's play, and you're like, Do you want to get me a coffee? yeah.

Say me.

Yeah, yeah, I would say you.

Yeah, boy Taylor. Yeah, boy Taylor, for sure, because yeah. I mean, if your idea of romance is like, you know, washing the dishes and taking out the trash and making her lunch, then I would say girl tech.

What's something very romantic you've done for her?

I mean, proposal was pretty good.

Yeah, that was really good.

We did it at home because I always asked her, like, leading up, like, we knew it was going to happen, you know, I didn't want her to know when, but we both knew it's happening. So I just like, straight up asked her, I'm like, What do you want?

I know it would be something that he would stress about. Also. I didn't want anything big, but Taylor is like, it needs to be perfect. Like, I knew he was going to stress about it. Which is true because he had the ring for a long time and just couldn't pick on what to do. And I was like, just literally one night, just when you're feeling it, just I'll be washing the dishes, just like, pop it out.

These dishes, guys.

A lot of dishes, A lot of dishes.

A lot of dishes he likes to cook, and he uses a lot of dishes, so there's always dishes fair.

We do have a dish problem.

We do have a lot of dishes, but I was always like, just do it at home.

Keep it simple, like when we're having dinner and a glass of wine, just like, do it. Then she's like, I just want it to happen. So I did it at home, I did it in the kitchen.

A lot of candles.

And when she came back from the event, it was pretty freaking cute, yeah.

Were you absolutely shocked when you walked in because you weren't expecting it? I was?

I could not stop sobbing, Taylor literally had to come grab me. I was like from the garage, like it was probably like ten steps into the kitchen, but I literally would like. I took two steps and like, fell like hands to my knees.

I had to pick her up and what did I say, like, I got to ask the question?

He goes, I have some words I have to say to you, like, come on. And I was like, I was just sobbing.

Okay, go ahead, go ahead. Oh wow, that's pretty good, Taylor.

Girl tay, girl tay. Because she's going to buy me a gift that she wants me to use to do with the dishes or something.

I'm not going to buy you a vacuum.

You would?

But maybe if it's a Dyson?

You've bought me similar things to a vacuum.

Right, she's got a vision.

Yeah.

Of what she wants you to be doing with the items that she's buying you exactly. Instead of being like, I think you would like this, she's like, I want you to like this thing, yeah.

She's going to make it happen.

That's a good answer. Who is sloppier when they're drunk?

Girl, yeah, boy tay.

Girl Tay doesn't get drunk.

Girl Tay legit can have five drinks and be the same human. What? It's so annoying.

And you're like, doing back flips in the corner. Yes, two tequila shots, I'm gone.

I'm on Mars and she can have five old fashions and be.

I also don't, I don't like, I don't like not being like in control of myself, so I don't ever let myself like, get there.

Boy tay sloppier when drunk. Who is more likely to start the argument?

Oh, Lord.

The eye roll.

I thought it was going on, call her daddy, not a freaking roast.

Bro, you just roasted me for 20 minutes.

If anyone's driving and didn't see, Mr. Lautner rolled his eyes, and it's you, okay, you're the one to start the argument.

I mean.

I think the eye roll was enough like, proof that.

It was a little sassy, like, No, I don't, yes, you do.

I have some sass in me, okay, yeah, and that probably is why I would be the one to start it.

Mm-hmm. Okay, I appreciate you acknowledging it and being self-aware. Yeah, we love that.

Good job.

I'm aware that you're married, so like the word, the ick you don't like, have the ick of each other. But I always say this to Matt, I'm like, if we had to pick an ick of each other, like, what would it be? And I'm like, there are these pants that Matt wears sometimes when he's going to golf.

That's all you'll be thinking about.

Literally, it's all I'll be thinking about. If you had to pick the ick that you have of each other, what's that? One thing that you're like, Taylor, stop?

Well, go ahead, I know you have yours.

Wait, what's mine?

My lack of cleanliness? No, no.

That's not an ick what I actually feel like. I was just thinking of one, Oh, jeez.

It's not an ick, okay?

You've already roasted me enough at this point, so?

It's like, when you start something and be like, I don't mean to be an asshole, but right, but.

It's not an ick but.

No, it really. It's actually something that we've had to work on together. Okay, is just our different communication styles? Oh, we have very different communication styles.

I remembered mine.

Sorry, oh great.

We don't. I didn't know yours was going to be more fun.

Keep going.

Yeah, right, okay, you talk.

Communication Okay, you have different communication styles.

I want if there's a disagreement or something, I want to just be like, what's wrong? What are you thinking? You're such a man? Like, tell me about it, like, let's talk about it.

Yeah, uh-huh. I need the space, I need the processing.

But like it used to be very frustrating to me, because I just have to, like, sit by myself in silence. Just wondering what she's upset about, what she thinks I did and I, she doesn't want to talk yet, and it's frustrating.

You're like the kid in, like time out, and you're like, meanwhile, it's like, that's so men being like, I want to fix it. What did I do? Tell me what I did?

Yeah.

Okay, what is yours, Tay?

How you blow your nose.

I know, I know, thank you.

What does he do?

Oh, this is horrible. I was agreeing to this.

It's just how you hold the paper, I know, I know.
