Julia Louis-Dreyfus: 'I Don't Think I've Made It ... And I Like That'
Nominated for a ninth Emmy Award in acting, the star of Veep and Seinfeld talks about getting her first laugh, her rocky start at Saturday Night Live and the #MeToo movement.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus remembers drawing her first laugh. The joke was performed for the benefit of her mother.
"I stuck some raisins up my nose when I was 3," she says. "Classic. Classic! ... And then we promptly went to the emergency room because I sucked them up into my brain and had to have them extracted."
Since then, Louis-Dreyfus has sharpened her act a bit. the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor last year. And between playing Elaine on , Christine on , and Vice President Selina Meyer on , she's won a record-tying eight Emmy Awards in acting.
