I think we can all agree that Bill Murray is the wisest man in show business. Probably. I mean, yes, definitely. So when he stopped by BuzzFeed to promote his new movie Rock the Kasbah, we thought this would be the perfect opportunity for Bill to dole out some of his wisdom to BuzzFeed staffers. After gathering some snacks from the kitchen, he sat down to offer up whatever advice he had and to answer some burning questions. Here's what happened.
Chelsea: I want to know, do you have a favorite prank to pull? Do you like pulling pranks?
Bill Murray: Well, I’m not much of a prankster because real guys, they never give up, and I’m not that organized, to really lay and wait for years and years on people. I used to call people in the middle of the night, you know: Is your refrigerator running? That kind of thing. You know what’s funny — you’re not hungry at all?
Chelsea: I’m a little hungry but I’m not like — I’ll have some snacks.
BM: I've got baby carrots and I’ve got, they said it was hummus but I’m confused about hummus. I thought hummus was chickpeas. That smells like — [he pranks Chelsea by smushing her face in a tiny package of hummus] — now that kind of thing is what I like to do. And it’s not unbelievable, but it’s what I like to do.
BM: That’s the only thing I really like to do. I like to do that with ice cream and cake.
Chelsea: What about ice cream cake?
BM: I find it the more senior the person you can get into the cake or ice cream, the better it feels. There’s just something about it. I remember getting my agent's wife into some remoulade sauce in Paris once. "Oh my god, we should send this back?" And she was the kind of person who said, "We should?" And I said, "It smells terrible. It's off. This is like two days old." Just reeled right in. Right into the remoulade. She couldn’t believe it! You know, there’s this huge seafood tower, the last thing you think is, My nose is gonna be in that thing in a second.
Chelsea: Well, the key to good prank is a setup, I think.
BM: The key is to proffer it around a little bit first. You've got to fake a couple, and don’t do it to the people you’re not going to do it to. No, no. "You don’t think that’s strange? You don’t think that smells funny?" That’s good.
Chelsea: Have you ever taken a prank too far or known someone who’s taken a prank too far?
BM: Yeah, I’ve made jokes with people, like fake tripping or something like sort of push-and-shove somebody and they have like a wooden leg, I’ve done that.
Chelsea: Oh no!
BM: Well, you know, it’s a long life. You’re gonna make some of those errors, but I find that those are stunning in their beauty. Like, my god, my complete unawareness. I’m always reminded of it. You have to delight at the realization that you're not a perfectly functioning machine.
April: I kind of have a two-part question. So, I wanna know, what was your favorite character on SNL, or any kind of impersonation?
BM: I played?
April: Yes.
BM: Well, it’s not one that most people remember — even I have trouble with it — but once I had to play a movie actor in a scene. And I was — John Belushi was playing the stuntman and I was the actor — and all I had to do was, I didn’t have many lines, and I had to do this scene and they yelled "CUT!" OK, bring in the stuntman, and they said, "Dennis, can you find your way to your trailer?" and I just said, "Yeah." That was all I did. That was all I did. I had so little to do on the show in the early days that was all I had and I had to really make something of that "yeah" moment. That was fun.
April: Now you said "'yeah' moment," — so I wanted to know, as advice asking my boss for a raise, what would be my "yeah" moment? Like, "yeah, raise."
BM: The thing about the "yeah" moment with the raise that I’ve learned is that it’s sort of suggested that you’re easily replaced, and most people aren’t easily replaced. It’s like you’re here and you’re April and you’re probably doing a fine job. And I always tell people that you have to realize that it’s gonna take them, this fella or this woman, time to replace you, and train the person that’s gonna take your job the amount of money you would save in not giving you a raise is not commensurate with what it would take to do that. So you just have to have more confidence going in.
BM: It’s like if you’re going looking for a job, or auditioning for something, you walk in and people feel nervous, like, Oh, am I good enough? That person wants the process to end right now. They want you to walk in and take the job. So if you’re asking for a higher position or more money, you have to have that confidence, you have to be completely unafraid. My friend Gilda, everything she auditioned for, she got. She didn’t want everything, but she got it anyway because she didn’t need the money. There was a difference. Most actors are starving and she was not starving. So, if you walk in there and have great confidence that you don’t need the job, people will go, like, Holy cow, look at this confident chick walking in here.
Bob: How do I keep my friends and family on their toes a little more? I’m scared they've gotten a little comfortable around me, and I want to make sure they're a little wary.
BM: Wow. You want them on their toes a little bit more. Well, are you on your toes?
Bob: Always.
BM: Really? Well if you're really on your toes and really here — you know, really here — that changes everything.
Bob: OK.
BM: What do you weigh?
Bob: I don’t know, 160 or something like that?
BM: You don’t know? Well, if you're really on your toes you'd kinda have an idea or a ballpark, you'd be all over that.
Bob: That's true.
BM: When you're with them, do you sit with them generally when you're talking to them?
Bob: Yeah, I’m usually sitting down.
BM: Try to feel the 160 pounds in your body — like, feel that weight in your pelvis when you're sitting in the chair.
Bob: I’m feeling it.
BM: All right, because you've gotta quiet down a little bit to really feel the weight a little bit, so you feel little bits in your feet on the stool — 160 pounds when you feel that weight, and you really feel like 160, got it?
Bob: Yeah.
BM: OK, so here we are now. We’re 160. Something’s different. And that’s, you know, they can feel that. They can feel that difference when you are aware of yourself — it changes the dynamic between you and them. So that change, that all of sudden brings a different kind of relationship, a different vibration you’d call it, I guess, and it changes the room. It changes the room just you're doing it now. You feel it?
Bob: I’m feeling it, yeah.
BM: That’s what I would say. And maybe, I mean, when you say, "I want them more on their toes," you probably want yourself more on your toes, more of yourself too, you want them to give more of themselves to you. So if you can do this with them — and it's hard to work with your immediate family — if you can do that with them, then they give it back to you sort of naturally and without reservation and it’s almost sort of a blessing that it comes to you because we're not really aware of what's happening, but you'll be aware of it because you're working on it.
Bob: Yeah, that makes sense. Thank you.
BM: You're welcome, I wish you luck with that.
Loryn: You seem really relaxed. I was wondering if you meditate?
BM: Well, I do. Yeah.
Loryn: Yeah? Like every day?
BM: The only thing I really do every day is scrub my teeth. That’s about it. But I’m not as organized as I look. I know I look incredibly organized, but I’m not that organized. But I find it’s. you know, I think everyone should figure out how to do it one way or another. To sit and just sort of pull yourself together first thing in the morning. Because you're sort of, you're put back together in your sleep. You're sort of reassembled. And the best time to sort of observe yourself is when you're sort of put back together first thing in the morning.
Sarah: So, you’re known for crashing parties, you know that. I was hoping you could give me advice on how to crash a party with style.
Bill Murray: With style? Well, I think it’s all about ease of entry. It’s about getting in. I used to know guys in the old days in Colorado that would find parties, and they’d have no place to stay when we’d go skiing, and they would just buy a gallon jug of wine and find a party, walk in with a gallon jug of wine, which looks like, Hey, you guys are gonna share. And what they would do is drink enough wine to fall asleep in the place and stay there. Now, that’s not what you’re looking for is it? Or is it?
Sarah: That’s a style, I think.
BM: I think the best is to have a burden, or something that’s difficult to carry, like a case of beer, and come to the door and fumble. So people will help you — they will open the door for you and usher you in. And say, “These are cold, where should I put them?” If those are your first words, then you’re already into the kitchen. And if you’re in the kitchen, you are the heartbeat of the party.

Fans of the totally '80s and truly outrageous fictional cartoon band Jem and the Holograms, rejoice: Jem has been reborn in a live-action feature of the same name. We spent time with costars Aubrey Peeples (Jem/Jerrica) and the iconic Molly Ringwald (Aunt Bailey) to talk about the making of their new movie and, at the same time, put them to the test. Let's see how they did.
What was the first thing Aubrey thought when seeing Molly on set the first day?
Jon Premosch / BuzzFeed
AP: What'd you write? 'Wow! It's that girl from...' [laughs] That too! I mean, there was a lot going through my mind.
MR: [To Aubrey] You write so fast!
What was the first thing Molly thought when seeing Aubrey on set the first day?
Jon Premosch / BuzzFeed
AP: Aw! That's so nice! Thank you!
MR: I like this.
What is Molly most likely doing when she’s in between scenes on set?
BuzzFeed
AP: I don't know if you're gonna remember doing this.
MR: That's true!
AP: We have so many pictures from when you took pictures of us and we didn't know that you were taking pictures.
MR: Oh yeah! I was all investigative.
AP: I was like, "Molly Ringwald just sent us a selfie."
MR: I was also transcribing that interview I did with Matilda for This American Life forever. It took a long time.
AP: I did not know that.
What is Aubrey most likely doing when she’s on set in between scenes?
BuzzFeed
AP: I did watch all of those. They're amazing, by the way. Are her new ones on your Facebook page?
MR: No, she has her own Vimeo channel.
AP: Is it private or can I go see it?
MR: I think it's public, actually, yeah!
AP: She's amazing. A mini-filmmaker.
What’s Molly’s favorite ’80s movie?
BuzzFeed
AP: I've read the book — I haven't seen that.
MR: It's really good.
What’s Aubrey’s favorite ’80s movie?
BuzzFeed
AP: You were close!
What would Molly say is the craziest thing that happened while making this film?
BuzzFeed
AP: It really isn't that crazy...
MR: [To Aubrey] What did you write? Oh yeah!
What would Aubrey say is the craziest thing that happened while making this film?
BuzzFeed
AP: Yup!
MR: I'm a quick study.
In the spirit of the original, what is Molly’s favorite cartoon?
BuzzFeed
AP: Oh, Adventure Time!
And what’s Aubrey’s favorite cartoon?
BuzzFeed
MR: I have no idea.
AP: What did you write?
MR: The Peanuts!
AP: Oh yeah, I'm into the classics. Every Halloween you've gotta watch the island episode [of Scooby Doo].
MR: But which character [is your favorite]?
AP: Oh, Shaggy!
MR: Of course, Shaggy.
And finally: Who’s more likely to utter the phrase “truly outrageous” IRL?
BuzzFeed
AP: Stef said it constantly on set.

Men's Fitness: You're a carnivore who recently adopted a vegan diet. What ultimately made you decide to do that?
Liam Hemsworth: My own health, and after all the information I gathered about the mistreatment of animals, I couldn't continue to eat meat. The more I was aware of, the harder and harder it was to do. About six months ago I went and saw a nutritionist to do a blood-diet analysis. He basically told me, based on my blood type and all the other different little tests they do, that red meat was good for me, and I should eat a lot more red meat and various other foods. So I started doing that, and the more red meat I ate, the worse I felt...

Truth Be Told airs Fridays at 8:30 p.m. on NBC.
Sandra Bullock and Billy Bob Thornton may not just be the coolest, most laid-back actors in Hollywood, but they also truly take #FriendshipGoals to a whole new level. Surprisingly enough, however, the actors have never once worked together in a movie — until now! (It's about damn time.) In their latest flick, Our Brand Is Crisis, produced by George Clooney and Sandra herself, a Bolivian presidential candidate failing in the polls enlists an elite American management team, led by the deeply damaged but brilliant strategist “Calamity” Jane Bodine (Bullock). Jane is coaxed back into the game for a chance to beat her professional nemesis, the loathsome Pat Candy (Thornton), now coaching the opposition. And trust me, her fight to win is AWESOME AS HELL.
Seeing as how Sandra and Billy Bob have been buds for over a decade, we had one question: How well do they really know each other? We obviously had to find out.
BuzzFeed
GOOD. Let's start!
BuzzFeed
Billy Bob: What's this all about?
Sandra: Nice bird!
Billy Bob: Nice bird. Ha! That's good.
(Sandra is referring to Billy Bob's talking pet Mynah bird named Alice, whom she met at his house many moons ago.)

Billy Bob: Our Brand Is Crisis.
Sandra: Miss Congeniality.

Sandra: I'm sorry, I'm sorry! That was a good strategy.

Billy Bob: Slippery Rock St.
Sandra: East Carolina University.

BuzzFeed
Billy Bob: BoBo's Oat Bars.
Sandra: Oatmeal bar?
It's a match!
Billy Bob: She didn't get the brand right, but...
Sandra: The brand meaning "send me free stuff."
Billy Bob: Free BoBo's Bars — cases of them. Maple pecan, mainly. And coconut.
Sandra: Hold on a sec. Can I write down what I want for free? A Mercedes. Just throwin' that out there.
BuzzFeed
Billy Bob: 1. Fuck. 2. George Clooney.
Sandra: 1. Fuck me 2. Let me tell you.
Billy Bob: [referring to his answer] But not together!
Sandra: [laughs] Fuck George Clooney!

Billy Bob: Me.
Sandra: <— I'm with stupid.

Complainers. I hate it when people complain, especially when it's about something that doesn't affect them or something that was given to them.
What was your first online screen name?
Wow, I think it was DocktaD43. That's embarrassing, I was obviously on my way to becoming a doctor at age 13! Funny thing is, I did end up completing my Pre-med degree before heading to LA.
What’s the last thing you copied & pasted on your phone?
This gif. It's Pablo Escobar! I loved Narcos.

One of the first jobs I booked in LA was a part in Rihanna's 'Hard' video. I was so excited! It was a military theme and we were a bunch of soldiers shooting guns and riding on tanks. I was just in a small cut of the video, but it was a blast. Hardly anybody knows about that job, until now...

Congrats!
I am CURED!!! - I just found out #nomorehepc #thankyou #blessing #family #prayer #live I pray anyone living with Hep C can qualify or afford treatment. It will be more available soon. I know treatment is hard to get still...#dontlosehope #itworkedforme #thereisacure #love #happy #americanliverfoundation #celebration #Idontknowwhattodo #iwanttohelp #cannes #iloveboats #onthesea #free
I'm very fortunate that I've had Hep C for about 16 years. Sixteen years ago that was [presented to me] as a death sentence. I think it really worked on my self-esteem. Even though I may have looked confident on the outside, I think it really was a dark cloud that lingered over me.
I don't have any liver damage and I don't have any side effects. I'm living my life the way I want to, but it could have eventually have caused me some problems and so it was a real blessing that I was able to get the medicine. I'm halfway there.

“The power of the woman has just not even been unleashed around the world.”

Jon Premosch / BuzzFeed
Over the last six months it's really been a progression. I have found that women have so much unleashed power that they don't really utilize because they don't have confidence in themselves about who they are, and what they can do. I have always actually been with and attracted to very strong women, and I think I've learned a lot from them. The power of the woman has just not even been unleashed around the world.

From Reese Witherspoon's takedown of Hollywood agesim and sexism to Caitlyn Jenner's powerful speech, the vibe was straight-up inspirational at Carnegie Hall this past Monday evening. Glamour's Women of the Year Awards honored the best and the brightest at their 25th annual event — and we were lucky enough to speak with a few of this year's crop of honorees.
BuzzFeed
What's the hardest or best part about being a woman?
I would say the hardest is being strong and being tough and asking for what you want and what you need while not being sort of labeled as a bitch, which is tough to do.
What was the moment that you felt most proud to be a woman in 2015?I have to say, honestly, and I’m not just saying this because I’m here. But standing up there and being able to watch Cecile accept that award. I’ve been a big fan of hers and Planned Parenthood since I was in my early twenties in New York. It’s been a part of my life, so to be able to be a part of her journey for me was extreme honor.
BuzzFeed
What's the hardest or best part about being a woman?
The hardest part about being a woman is being underestimated. I would think that that's the hardest.
The best part of being a woman is you have an endless, endless supply of love and compassion.
What was the moment that you felt most proud to be a woman in 2015?
The moment that I felt most proud to be a woman is moments that I experience all the time like when my daughter says, "Mommy you're the best."
BuzzFeed
What's the hardest or best part about being a woman?
I think probably the hardest thing about — and it's not just being a woman, it's about being a human being — is to always maintain grace and centeredness no matter how difficult the circumstances are. And to always remember that it's important to be of service and to always be elevating any situation that we're in. I think we carry that grace within us, and we as women know about service and I think it's always a real balance to make sure that we're taking care of ourselves, as well as of giving to others.
I would say the most powerful moment for me of 2015 was within the context of the show I'm doing for Amazon Prime, called Transparent. When we all heard that Caitlyn Jenner was coming out, it was probably one of the most inspirational moments that I have ever experienced being a woman. To watch someone this courageous and brave and authentic that is a model not only to the Transgender community and the LGBTQ community m but also to the rest of the world of what it means to be an authentic, courageous human being who is willing to live their truth. It was a very, very powerful moment.

What's the hardest or best part about being a woman?
The hardest part about being a woman is figuring out what to wear. It’s always that way; I never thought it would come to this. I had really no sense of style. Everyone around me in my family had the sense of style — I learned as much as I possibly could.
But, it’s more than that. I’m kind of at this point in my life where I’m trying to figure this womanhood thing out. It is more than hair, makeup, clothes, all that kind of stuff. There’s an element here, that I’m still kind of searching for. And I think that’ll take a while. Because I think as far as gender, we’re all on a journey. We’re all learning and growing about ourselves. And I feel the same way.
What was the moment that you felt most proud to be a woman in 2015?
Over the last six months it’s really been a progression. I have found that women have so much unleashed power that they don’t really utilize because they don’t have confidence in themselves about who they are, and what they can do. I have always actually been with and attracted to very strong women, and I think I’ve learned a lot from them.
The power of the woman has just not even been unleashed around the world. I think that’s to come, but I think that’s gonna come from confidence as these women grow up and get in better positions of authority — I think that will come. So, I am SO glad to be on this team and help it along!

Dying to see these women on money.
"Honestly, either Cecile Richards or her mother. I think she would probably say her mom, but I think Cecile is gunning for it. She's making a good run for it."
