Sandra Bullock laughed hysterically after making a very pointed joke about Nicole Kidman during their appearance on The One Show on Thursday evening.
The pair, who are currently promoting their new film Practical Magic 2, were chatting about the latest installment of the film, set 28 years after the original.
And as Nicole reminisced about how much she enjoys playing her whimsical character Gillian Owens, Sandra interjected and said, “That’s how I see her in real life too.”
She continued, “TThat’s what I admire most about her. She is so incredibly free and courageous to do things that would make me say, ‘No, I’ll stay home. I’m comfortable where I am.’
Host Lauren Laverne jumped in and said, “I love how Nicole is, ‘the jumping roles don’t happen often enough.’
Laughing Nicole joked: ‘Only one person will let me jump her!’
Sandra teased: ‘Whenever she wants, publicly or privately, do it. But when I see her come into her room, I think, ‘My pants are going down.’
The pair then burst into hysterics together.
