Golden Globe Winner Speaks Openly with Illinois Radio Show About the Challenges with Her Latest Role

Ever since this interview with Chelsea Handler, Hollywood's biggest stars have been lining up for their turn. Ok, that's a complete lie.

But, by being in the right place at the right time, we were able to arrange a quick chat with Golden Globe/Screen Actors Guild winner and Oscar-nominated actress/producer, Jessica Chastain.

Ms. Chastain was happily ready to talk about her latest film which she produced and starred in. The film "The Eyes of Tammy Faye" is creating a lot of buzz about her finally getting the award she deserves, an Oscar.

One thing that stands out in the trailer is the makeup, which initially took almost 8 hours to make happen. Jessica Chastain shared what she does while in the makeup chair and it proves her professionalism and how badly she wanted to perfect her role as Tammy Faye.

SHE CAN SING?

Yes, though she was very humble about her "skills" as a singer. Her role in this film was her first time singing in a movie and she knocked it out of the park.

METHOD ACTRESS?

Not exactly, but in the interview below you'll hear her share a fun story of what her and her co-star, Andrew Garfield, did oftentimes when the cameras weren't rolling

In the 1970s, Tammy Faye Bakker and her husband, Jim, rise from humble beginnings to create the world's largest religious broadcasting network and theme park. Tammy Faye becomes legendary for her indelible eyelashes, her idiosyncratic singing, and her eagerness to embrace people from all walks of life. However, financial improprieties, scheming rivals and a scandal soon threaten to topple their carefully constructed empire.
