She says, "By the time we get to cooking and having our champagne, I hadn't had anything to eat ... and I got drunk.

"They needed it (champagne drinking) for continuity and it tasted good ... and whenever I'm around her (Stewart) I suddenly get really West Virginian and southern ... and so I got drunk and southern, and it was the worst combination.

"I can't bear to watch it because I just started talking faster and faster."
