Transcript
00:00 What's my favorite Little Mermaid song? There's a wish I could be that one.
00:07 Hey, I'm Halle Bailey and we are playing Truth or Where.
00:28 Ooh, where? Is that on where? Yeah. Oh my gosh. This is my sister and I on the red carpet for
00:42 Meet the Browns. My sister was in this movie and I remember we were so excited for her and
00:50 we all showed up dressed to the tee, ready for the red carpet. And this was our look. I remember I
00:59 loved my dress I had on. I felt like I was in Hollywood with the sequence and I really thought
01:07 I was killing it. Obviously I was not, but it's funny. You know, if I had to recreate this today,
01:17 I feel like I could make a cute version of it. It would probably be like a mini skirt on me today.
01:21 Like a mini dress. So maybe, yeah, maybe it'd be cute with the right glam with it. Okay.
01:29 This is so fun. Where again? Oh, oh, I like this one. This was me at the Met. What was this? 2021
01:44 or 2020, something like that. 21. Yeah. 2021 at the Met. I had just come off of filming Mermaid.
01:55 So this was, when was this? This was November that year, I think. And I like was so excited to
02:05 go. It was my first time. And yeah, I really liked my dress. It was by Rodarte. I went with my sister
02:10 and they were sister designers. So yeah, I would absolutely wear this again. This was fun.
02:16 I think something about the Met that most people don't know is it's super chill in there after the
02:22 red carpet. Like everyone is just good vibes. Everyone just drinks and eats and it's just
02:29 normal. After all the hoopla of the red carpet, which is, you know, the big fiasco, which is
02:35 wonderful. But after that, it's a fun party. I'm going to do it a little harder this time.
02:41 Oh, dare. Okay. Let's see. Sing us a line from your favorite Little Mermaid song. Oh, okay.
03:00 Uh, what is a line from my favorite one? What's my favorite Little Mermaid? There's a wish I could
03:07 be. That one. Or I'm gonna see. I'm gonna see. That one.
03:24 Truth. Ooh, we have not gotten truth until now. This is a good one. Between you and Chloe,
03:32 who do you think has the best style? Okay. I'm going to have to go with my sister on this one.
03:37 Absolutely. My big sister has the best style to me. She's a style inspo for me. I'm trying to get
03:43 on her level. You know, I'm 23 now. I just turned 23 in March and I'm trying to embrace my like
03:49 grown woman sexy vibes. And I feel like my sister is like the perfect inspiration for that. So
03:54 definitely her. Truth again. Uh oh.
04:06 What's a secret you can share from the set of the Little Mermaid?
04:14 What is a secret that you wouldn't know? During all of the shipwreck scenes and at the
04:21 end in particular, our battle with Ursula, there's this moment where Ariel is like
04:27 climbing and fighting for her life on the boat. And she's like getting drowned in like waves. Like
04:34 the water keeps getting thrown on her. And it's a lot of water. But the good thing about this water,
04:41 it was so nice and warm. So I was not uncomfortable at all. It was fun,
04:45 like a fun little water park. But I had to look terrified. So, but I wasn't.
04:51 Where again? Oh, I like this one. Okay. So this was literally just, what was this last month
05:07 or the month before? At the Oscars Vanity Fair party. So much fun. I had a great time. I think
05:14 this is, this is my second time at this party. And it's very cool because you see all of your
05:19 favorite people from all the movies there. And everyone's so kind and chill and you dance and
05:25 have fun. So yeah, I love this dress. I forgot who it's by, but I loved it.
05:35 What do we have? Where?
05:38 Oh, this is another Oscars look. This was my very first Oscars look, which was two years ago now.
05:50 So yeah, this was the first Oscars. And the funny thing about this day, this was actually,
05:56 it fell on my birthday, March 27th. So I think that whole day I had so much fun after.
06:03 And I had to fly back to Atlanta. So I couldn't even stay the whole show. I just presented and
06:08 then got on a flight to go back to Atlanta to film The Color Purple. So it was such a fun night
06:14 though. And I really love this dress. Ooh, is there anything I can tell you about The Color
06:18 Purple? I would tell you that it's going to be amazing because Fantasia is a force to be reckoned
06:26 with. I've been a fan of Fantasia for a very, very long time, obviously, but she, like in this film,
06:34 people are just going to lose their minds. She's amazing. As well as the rest of the cast. I mean,
06:39 Taraji P. Henson, Coleman Domingo, and the fact that Oprah and Steven Spielberg were still very
06:46 a part of the creative process for the remake was something that I was just so happy to even
06:50 be able to witness. So I think people will be excited about it. Truth. Let's see what we got.
07:06 If we were to scroll through your TikTok For You page, what kind of videos would we find? Ooh,
07:13 this is a great question. You would find a lot of cat videos. So I am a cat mother. For those
07:20 who do not know, I have a baby who's two years old, a baby boy named Poseidon, and he is my
07:27 favorite thing ever in life. I truly feel like I am a cat mom for life. And the funny thing is,
07:37 I love cats so much. I actually got my sister cat for Christmas, who's Poseidon's little brother.
07:44 So now they have a really nice sibling sister, well, sibling, brotherhood, cousin thing going on.
07:52 And yeah, so you would see a lot of cat videos. What else would you see? Funny videos,
07:58 singing videos. Oh, I love my TikTok For You page. Bye, Who, What, Where. Thanks for watching.
