[gentle rock music]

I can feel

Your presence echoing

throughout the fields

Where life made

sense to me

If you take away that

missing part of me

You'll still find the

entrance to my soul

I can see you now

more than ever

I still feel you up there

smiling down on me

I can see you

now more than ever

I still feel you up there

smiling down on me

[music]

At times I feel like

running full speed ahead

Towards our

greatest memories

To watch them

chase me home

Where I feel safe alone

Another step outside

my comfort zone

[music]

I can see you now

more than ever

I still feel you up

there smiling down on me

I can see you now

more than ever

I still feel you up

there smiling down on me

Smiling down on me

You're smiling down on me

I can see you now

more than ever

I still feel you up there,

you're smiling down on me

[music]

Alright, come on!

Smiling down on me

[music]

You're smiling down on me

[applause]

Dear Mom,

Did you ever wonder about

the moment you became you?

I've been thinking

about that lately.

I mean, the moment that

decides how we forever

look at the world.

I remember that

moment perfectly.

Mom, what are those?

For me, it was with you.

They're picture frames.

See in that one,

a little boy's getting

a bedtime story

from his grandpa.

Up there, they're putting

up the Christmas tree.

Boxes of light.

Windows into life.

Every frame begs

me for a story.

Uhhh...

You okay over there?

I don't know.

I mean, I just don't,

I feel like I'm flying blind.

I don't know if the colors

I'm using are right.

I don't know.

Well, if you're really nice

you could ask for help.

Really?

Sure, yeah.

I do this for a living.

I mean, this.

Do you have one of those

kits that they use on you?

Of course. I never

leave home without it.

I just got a new

one yesterday.

Kind of magical.

It's basically the secret

to my entire career

is this little box.

Almost anyone can use it,

but no one knows about it.

There's this really

special red color.

Comes in a little

tiny box of eight.

I could just

paint that on you.

Look at that. See you

wouldn't have to do that.

It would stay all

day that crayon.

Thank you.

Thank you for that

invaluable help.

[phone vibrating]

They just

delivered our tree.

Ha, really?

I hadn't noticed.

Have you got your one yet?

Now why would a girl who

lives alone need a tree?

You could put my

present under it.

[laughs]

But seriously though, like,

I don't know, like, on video,

is like, should I

be wearing more blush.

Like, should it be more colorful

or less? Is this gonna...

Look, I wouldn't

worry about it.

It's face time.

I mean, you're basically just

going to be a frozen image.

Like an emoji.

Smile emoji, sad emoji,

raise the roof emoji.

Your bras are going

to raise the roof.

Is there a bra emoji?

Why didn't they send a

real crew though, you know?

Like they do for me?

Okay, I've got an idea.

You can do it, right?

-I mean you love my bras.

-I do.

You just talk about

how much you love them.

Girls around the country will

want you to love their bras.

It'll work really well.

Problem is the only thing

I can describe is

how to take them off.

-Mm, are you ready?

-No! Stop it. Stop it.

Oh, not that ready.

Okay, do I look okay?

Is it... seriously.

Just... hold on.

Stop it, stop it,

stop it, stop it!

-No, no, no.

-You look fine.

Okay, okay.

[indistinct chatter]

Hey, guys.

Joining us live from her

stunning home in New York City

to talk about her new

Haute Couture bra line

that is tearing up the runways,

ladies and gentlemen is...

Georgina Scott.

Georgina, welcome.

Gosh, you look phenomenal and

I can't even see your bra.

Well, thank you.

You sure know what

to say to a girl.

Thank you so much.

I'm really excited

to talk to you guys.

My goodness, what is going on?

Fashion week has been all

abuzz about your bras.

Who knew there was so much

new to do with boob support?

[laughs]

Well, never underestimate a

woman's love of dressing up,

even when she's undressed.

Now, I thought we had seen it

all with Victoria's Secret

and their diamond bras.

Tell us, what has

everyone so excited?

Well, look, I'm a gal who

loves sparkle, and those

diamond bras are

incredible spectacles and

amazing works of art,

but I wanted to create

something that every woman

could buy and own and have

that same wow factor

in their own bedroom.

We use hand-printed silks.

We use antique lace, uh,

vintage Czech crystals.

I wanted to sort of do a

tip of hat to the most

beautiful and ethereal

styles of the past that

inspired me all my life.

I've never seen bras made

of this fabric or design.

They're so sophisticated, like

you can wear them in the street.

I think that every piece of

clothing that goes on your body

should be as beautiful

as possible.

Not just functional, but

infused with the art of fashion.

Now, speaking of

fashion and supermodels,

you are dating the absolutely

resplendent Sebastian.

The iconic face

of Bateau Cologne.

So, we're guessing, Georgina,

that he's probably

your first guinea pig,

am I right?

Um, let's just say that

he's supportive of my work

and leave it at that for

daytime television.

So when can us ladies

get our hands on these?

Well, all gals and maybe

some guys can get their

hands on them, uh,

starting tomorrow on Fifth

Avenue and this weekend

across the nation.

Georgina Scott,

always a pleasure.

Congrats on your success,

and look, I know now what

my wife is getting

for her birthday.

The pleasure was all mine.

Thank you so much you guys.

Coming up, a revealing new

interview with Russell Crowe.

You won't want to...

Whew!

So...

Well, that was amazing.

Yay!

Well, they did all the heavy

lifting, but more importantly,

how'd I look?

Like every man was fantasizing

about what bra you were wearing?

[laughing]

[phone notification

rings repeatedly]

You're blowing up.

Oh...

[gentle piano music]

Becca, the service is over and

we're back at the house now.

Everyone's asking for you.

Please come.

I know you're upset.

I, we didn't get a

chance to finish.

I need to explain, so we

just have to talk, okay?

[kissy noise]

Bye.

Ms. Scott, I hope you haven't

been waiting too long.

Georgina, please.

Couture has decided to do a

feature on your spring line

in our May issue, featuring

a June bride theme.

How do you feel

about that?

I think that's fantastic

news, oh my God.

Thank you so much.

Good, well we're all very

excited about it over here.

In fact, I have a fan who'd

very much like to meet you.

Hello Ms. Scott.

It is such a

pleasure to meet you.

I attended your show

during fashion week and

I just wanted to say that I

thought it was so incredible.

Thank you.

You know, you look familiar.

Do we know each

other somehow?

Oh, um, the Pig and Cow

building.

-Of course.

-I live there, too.

Wow, what a

small world, right?
