Jamie Lee Curtis hopes Chappell Roan will consider doing matinee shows as well for fans with a strict bedtime routine.
The Freaky Friday actress, 66, made an appearance on Jenna Bush Hager's podcast Open Book where the conversation turned to who the actress would love to see perform live.
"Chappell Roan," Curtis said in a clip posted to Instagram. "I want to be 'Hot to Go' too—but I want to be 'Hot to Go' to bed."
"I am 'Hot to Go' to bed," she added. "And therefore you need to play 'Hot to Go' so that at 4:30 p.m., we're all going 'H-O-T-T-O-G-O,' and then I'm going home."
This isn't the first time Curtis is insisting on matinee shows as she previously asked of the same from U2 and Coldplay in March 2023.
"I am gonna just say this now as a taunt and as a suggestion. U2, do a matinee. Coldplay, do a matinee. What about a 12 noon concert, Coldplay? What about it?" asked Curtis, while speaking to The Hollywood Reporter.
I think if we filled a stadium with people who want to see matinee of Coldplay, I think we would start a trend."
Curtis also roasted Bruce Springsteen as she wondered why artists don't perform concerts during the day rather than at night.
"Bruce Springsteen, do a f****** matinee!" she went on. "You're old! Why wouldn't you let me come see you, Bruce Springsteen, in your glory days–pun intended–and do it at noon or one o'clock? Two o'clock! Two o'clock matinee!" she continued.
"Theatre in New York, two o'clock! I will come and hear your five-hour concert, Bruce, at two o'clock, and I'm gonna be home and in bed by 7:30."
At another point in her interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Curtis also recalled turning down the Oscar nominees' dinner for a similar reason.
"Now you might say, 'Jamie, you're nominated for an Academy Award, you're going to be in the room with only nominees for the Academy Award, and I have declined.' Why? Because Mommy goes to bed early," explained Curtis.
