Oh my God! I should know this.

Hold on. Okay. One second It's just- okay. Let me just

I feel weird 'cause I'm scanning your body in my mind.

[both laugh]

Hi, I'm Lily Collins.

And I'm Ashley Park.

And we're here to play,

[Both] Glamour's Bestie Test.

[Ashley laughs] How did we first meet?

[Ashley clears throat] At the table read.

At our table read.- At the table read. Oh yeah!

We both were so nervous and excited, too.

And there is an instance where

I didn't know how to quite speak up for myself,

and instead of speaking for me,

Lily really checked in with me and was like,

Hey, could I, could I help you with this?

Or How do you feel?

How do you feel about this?

She really was such a great, like,

ally and support from day one

and did not have to be.

So I was like,

I get to work with her

and she's in my life forever. Yeah.

[upbeat music]

What is Lily's biggest pet peeve?

It's um, I remember-

You, yeah.

So, it's like

[Both] when really hot-

Lesbian. Liquid.

[girls laugh]

[Both] When a hot liquid-

Is- goes-

[Both] Lukewarm. It has to be ice cold or really hot!

I get annoyed when you gotta drink a hot drink

and it's just like so scalding hot.

No, no, see, I love to burn my mouth.

[both girls laugh]

She loves to burn her mouth

and you heard it here.

[Ashley claps] Okay.

What is Ashley's biggest fear in life? Oh God.

These are-

[Both] really deep!

We're like a pink background and feathers.

Oh my God!

And like, twinning hair.

And we're like- I was gonna say like

what's your biggest fear is just like

any scary movie. Like you're just like,

You can't deal with it- I can't do scary.

[Both] But your biggest fear- in life?

Oh, I know what it is.

What?

Oh, oh no, it's too dark though.

Everything's too dark.

What?

I just started really thinking

about losing my loved ones.

Like I wanna go first.

[Ashley laughs]

So- Please don't go.

This is so dark.

No, but you know what I mean?- Yeah.

I think that's my,

that's the only thing that, I mean,

I'm literally scared of everything.

I'm just scared of the dark.

But I've realized now that monsters are not real.

Well now it's gonna, I just jinxed it.

But like those things aren't as scary as like,

you know,- Yeah.

Like life without- Mhm.

People that, are mean a lot to me.

Oh geez- Yeah.

Okay. Let's move on.

[Ashley clears throat]

Your turn.

How many tattoos does Lily have?

Oh my God. I should know this.

Hold on. Okay. Okay.

Let me just- One second, I need to count.

I feel weird 'cause I'm scanning your body in my mind.

[Ashley laughs]

[both laugh]

[clock ticks]

Six. Six?

Yeah!

Oh, are you dead serious?

Yeah

Imagine yourselves at a party.

Where would you find Ashley?

I just feel like you are the party.

So wherever Ashley is is where the party is.

I think, I think definitely dance floor,

definitely bar or asleep.

Honestly- Oh my God.

She, Ashley falls asleep anywhere.

So actually maybe you're in the corner asleep.

Or with my head in your lap,

and you're like

having a nice conversation-- Yeah.

with somebody,

and I'm like asleep.

'Cause I love sleeping at parties.

It's my favorite thing because-

It's just kind of weird,

not gonna lie. Everyone's there.

No, I feel very safe,

and I feel like I'm still at the party.

I'm also getting sleep. It's great.

I mean, that's weird.

[Ashley laughs]

[both laugh]

What was Lily's childhood nickname?

[Ashley gasps]

Ooh, uh, Lil-ly-ser

[both laugh]

You had it- Lil, oh, oh, oh.

and then you went down.

[Both] It's just Lil.

What is Ashley's alcoholic drink of choice?

Strange, I know what yours is.

Well we've- Spicy margarita.

Yeah, we've had spicy margarita's before together.

Am I- Is it a shot or a drink?

Is it a cocktail or is it a wine?

Is it Sonsierra? Is it Rosé? I can't do Cha-

Wine! I'm gonna say wine.

Okay. Wine in Paris, so that's fair.

Wine in Paris.

France actually ruined wine for me

Oh. Because now

it doesn't taste good unless I'm

[Both] in Paris.

I love like a chilled red brewery,

but I actually think I'm always down

for like a spicy margarita too.

I know that's why I was saying,

we've had spicy margaritas together.

Now Glamour and the world thinks

I'm an alcoholic, and I'm not.

If Lily found herself in jail.

[Ashley] What would- Ohhh [censored]

What would be her crime?

This is a great question.

What would be her crime?

I do think she would take the fall for someone.

Oh. It's one of my biggest fears

is that when I'm traveling internationally

that I've forgotten a piece of fruit in my bag

and that Customs is gonna come after me.

No, because I'm a felon in Aruba

because I tried to take out seashells.

This is,

we gotta stop this interview. [Lily laughs]

I'm incriminating myself.

Hey, actually, this is good for everyone to know.

If you're visiting Aruba,

it's illegal for you to take seashells from the beach.

You know like the ones, I'm nostalgic.

I always bring seashells home with me

and take them on the airplane back home.

They will detain you until you give them cash.

Not cred-

It might be a scam,

but I fell for it. [Lily laughs]

What would give Ashley the ick?

Being too needy.

And that is true.

I just feel like that When someones too needy.

You're just kind of like, Oh, I don't know.

Or, Just give me space.

Yeah, do your thing.

Yeah, you do your thing.

Lily doesn't like lukewarm liquids,

and if any of y'all try,

I will come after you,

and she will take the fall for me

and end up in jail.

In jail.

[Both] With seashells and fruits

[Lily laughs]

And she will not respond to Lil

'cause that was her childhood nickname.

And I will never reveal my secret skills.

Because she's asleep at a party.

Pretty much.

[Lily laughs]

[Lily and Ashley high five] Fine!

That was our writers room. Here we go.

[upbeat music]

[clock ticking]

I just-

I'll say her.

I would, I would probably wear more pieces

that Mindy wears.

And I would definitely wear more pieces that Emily wears,

no offense.

[both laugh]

[clock ticking]

[Ashley laughs]

It's the inhale, it's the- I-

On one.

[both girls laugh]

I, no, you.

You always give the advice

I didn't know that I needed

but needed in the moment.

And like has, you know, changed my perspective on things.

So yeah. Oh.

This is a mirror,

and it's reflecting back

exactly what you said five seconds ago.

[clock ticking]

Who's most likely to put their life in danger?

What I think it is is that I would put my life in danger

to save someone like spontaneously,

like without thinking.- Right.

And you would think of a better idea

to not put anyone's life

in danger. I like that, that's yeah.

You'd be like, Wait, before you go

in front of the car, just

Like take a second.

Can we all stop?

Maybe we just ask him

to stop first. Stop. Yeah.

[clock ticking]

Ashley.

No, she is funny.

You are funny. You are funnier.

[Ashley laughs]

You don't- But I, here's the, fine.

You don't even know when you're funny.

No, but you really don't know when you're funny.

That's the thing, Lily makes me laugh like crazy.

I think fine, by conventional standards,

I'm funnier.- You're funnier. Mhm.

But Lily's funny.

[clock ticking]

Ashley

[clock ticking]

But you'll always be my vice.

Okay. [Lily laughs]

[both laugh]

I think you speak very well. As do you.

I think you're very smart. As do you, are you.

Yeah.

[both laugh]

[clock ticking]

I'll go with you.

Yeah I will like,

like your shirt will make me cry.

I don't even know what to say, like-

Are you tearing up?

I'm actually tearing up thinking about it.

Yeah, case in point.

[Ashley laughs]

[clock ticking]

Ashley.

For the wrong moment?

At the wrong moment. I will give,

I hate it, but I'm sorry, I gotta say you.

[both laugh]

[clock ticking]

[both laugh]

That sounds like no one else is laughing.

Lily usually is.

But I did say that you are the most hilarious,

and I love that you find yourself funny too.

Yeah, no, it's usually why people,

other people laugh at me,

is 'cause I start laughing at myself.

But you have the best laugh. and then they're like,

I guess we'll go along with it.

You have the best laugh.
