Michelle Williams on 'Fosse/Verdon': 'I'm Always Looking For An Excuse To Sing & Dance'

Michelle Williams appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers last night (August 6) and dished all about being nominated for her first Emmy for her performance in FX’s, Fosse/Verdon!

“I’m always looking for an excuse to sing and dance. It’s not necessarily something I excel at, but it’s something I personally really enjoy,” the 38-year-old told Seth. “So whenever I can find a way to slip it into the acting and try and get away with it, I do.”

“When I had first met Lin[-Manuel Miranda], I sat next to him at an awards thing — I screamed when I saw him, but I thought it was going to be my only chance to ever interact with him. I had to make sure that I came back with a lot of things for the children in my life,” Michelle explained, but then he was an executive producer on the limited series: “Then when I realized we were going to be working together, I had to calm down.”

That same evening, Michelle Williams joined her co-star Julianne Moore at the New York premiere of their film After the Wedding!
