When the interview kicks off with Juliette Lewis (@juliettelewis) discussing how her rhinestone-studded, 4-inched spike-heeled boots make her feel like flying and kissing the sky and Craig Ferguson responds by calling her a “sexy leprechaun from another planet”, you just know it’s going to be a good interview. But those of us who are familiar with Juliette Lewis’ odd career path (from an actor playing roles that are steeped in sociopathic madness (”Natural Borne Killers“) to starting a rock band at age 30) know that she never fails to shock and entertain.

Here, she discusses her transition from her old band (”Juliette and the Licks“) to her new band and CD. She’s pushing 40 and looking fabulous (and if you’ve seen her in concert you’d know she can run circles around any 20-year old on stage).

Funniest part of the interview is when (completely overwhelmed and confused by Ferguson’s odd brand of humor), Lewis says to Ferguson:

“I don’t know who’s worse in this interview. I or you?”

Only a sexy, self-deprecating leprechaun from another planet could say that and get away with it. How can you not love Ms. Lewis? Speaking of loving Ms. Lewis, below is a photo of a very young Juliette Lewis and an equally young Brad Pitt when they were a couple over 15 years ago (time flies):

Below is Lews’ interview with Ferguson and her performance of a song from her new CD Terra Incognita.
