She continued the conversation, saying that after twirling once on the red carpet, she was constantly being asked to do it again by everyone. She said:
“So I walked out with this big train and I did it for the first time because I was like ‘ohh, its so pretty’ and I feel princessy. And after I twirled once, I was twirling all night. All the photographers were like ‘can you twirl! can you please twirl,’ and then even on stage Tom made me twirl, and I was only twirling. I am the twirling dancing emoji now.”
Fallon also commented she looked like she was standing over a subway grate to let the air flow into the folds of the dress to make it look beautiful, to which she replied by saying this was her Marilyn Monroe moment.
