Elisabeth Moss Tells 'Kimmel' Hardest 'Handmaid's Tale' Scene Involved 'Cream Cheese and Jelly'

Elisabeth Moss stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday night (August 5) and described the worst scene she’s had to film so far for her hit Hulu series, The Handmaid’s Tale!

“Probably the birth scene in season 2, where I had to give birth by myself, naked,” the 37-year-old actress admitted to Jimmy.

SPOILER: On the show, her character is captured by a ruthless couple (played by Joseph Fiennes, Yvonne Strahovski) and goes into labor under extremely difficult conditions.

“Yeah, we had a couple [babies],” Elisabeth continued. “There was one baby that, in order to get that post-birth look — the guck that comes on a baby — they put cream cheese and jelly on the baby.”

“That baby was not having it. Not having it. First of all, it smelled, which is weird. The cream cheese and jelly was odd,” Elisabeth added. “And it hated it, so it was screaming so loud. So I was doing this really emotional scene; I’m like naming the baby after my mother. It was all very emotional and this baby’s just screaming at the bottom of its lungs in my ear.”

That same evening, Elisabeth Moss joined her co-stars Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany Haddish at the Hollywood premiere of their new movie The Kitchen.

FYI: Elisabeth is wearing Vivienne Westwood with Christian Louboutin shoes and Anita Ko jewelry arriving at the Jimmy Kimmel Live studios.
