Margot replied with a laugh, “There’s so many times in the movie where he just picks me up or puts me in a tree or picks me up with one hand. I have to say, it’s really nice. It makes you feel like, ‘Oh, I’m light as a feather. I’m a tiny little thing.’”Jimmy had a quick comeback. He joked, “Can I tell you something? I’ve had a man pick me up like that.”Amused, Margot asked, “How did it make you feel?”Jimmy replied, “You think I’m kidding, but I’m not kidding. Shaquille O’Neal lifted me up like I was a baby. I just felt like I was a little boy.” The exchange left the audience in splits.
