She destroys.
insurance won't allow it. whenever stars say they do their own stunts, they mean they are lifted in the air on a harness, kicking their legs around
"Oh Jerry, don't let's ask for the moon. We have the stars."
Flawless
Still not as good but serving it
Had to look twice tbh.
Also, the double played Nicole Kidman's double, too. #weirdbutcool
