Claire Danes Reveals Which Celeb Helped Her Use the Bathroom at 2016 Met Gala

Claire Danes is revealing that is was very difficult to use the bathroom in her 2016 Met Gala dress, designed by Zac Posen, and now she’s revealing which celeb helped her out!

“People still also talk about the dress you designed for me for the 2016 Met Gala,” Claire told Zac in an interview for Town & Country. “I mean, they talk about it as one of the most remarkable things that I’ve ever done in my life. And I’m sort of like, ‘Well, I have an amazing friend.’ But I was glad that we got to share that.”

Claire added, “I was careful not to imbibe any liquids, because the bathroom situation was not easy. I remember I went in there before it was too crowded, and Uma Thurman was in the bathroom and she helped me.”

About the dress, she added, “It was great on the red carpet, but it really came alive inside the museum. People’s mouths would just fall open, it was so pretty.”

Claire Danes Says It Was 'So Hot' Watching Hubby Hugh Dancy Film 'Homeland'

Claire Danes very much still has the hots for her husband Hugh Dancy.

The 44-year-old actor has landed a role as a presidential advisor in the eighth and final season of Claire‘s hit Showtime series Homeland – in which the 40-year-old actress plays lead character Carrie Matheson – and though they didn’t share any scenes together, Claire has revealed that she would go in on her day off because she loves watching her husband work.

“That was such a nice way to end the show. I didn’t have a single scene with him, but on my days off, I would go to his set. He’s very good,” Claire expressed about Hugh in Net-A-Porter’s digital magazine Porter. “I don’t exactly forget that, but we don’t talk about acting much, so it was a really nice reminder. [Watching your partner do something they are really good at] is so hot.”

Pictured: Claire Danes spotted making her way out of the CBS Studios to film an appearance on CBS This Morning on Monday morning (February 3) in New York City.

Claire Danes Confirms She Turned Down 'Titanic' Opposite Leonardo DiCaprio & Doesn't Regret It At All

Claire Danes is recalling turning down the lead role in Titanic opposite Leonardo DiCaprio, just after they had wrapped filming Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet together.

She was asked if it was true while appearing on Dax Shepard‘s podcast.

“I think I did. I’m not entirely clear on that. There was strong interest, but honestly, like, I’d just made this romantic epic with Leo in Mexico City, which is where they were going to shoot Titanic, and I just didn’t have it in me. And I remember, Leo and I shared a manager at the time, and we were there at the office. I was on a balcony, which is funny [because of Romeo + Juliet]… and Leo had this rental red convertible, some, like, hot rod-dy car. And he was kinda going in circles in the parking lot. And I knew he was wrestling with the decision to do that movie or not and he just looked up at me, and he said, ‘I’m doing it. I’m doing it.’ And I could see he wasn’t sure, but he was like, f*** it, I gotta do this thing.’ And I looked down on him going, like, I totally understand why you are doing it. And I’m not ready for that,” Claire explained.

Claire didn’t regret the decision at the time, and the role ultimately went to Kate Winslet. The movie became a smash hit.

“I remember I went to the premiere of The Man in the Iron Mask [in 1998], and when he walked into the room, the floor fell in his direction,” she continued. “Everybody in the room just went towards him. And it was a little scary. I think I may have sensed I was courting that, and I just couldn’t do it.” She added that she had “zero regret” about the decision.

Leonardo was finally asked if he would have fit on that Titanic door and here’s what he said in response!

Claire Danes Opens Up About Shooting the Final Season of 'Homeland'

Claire Danes is on the cover of The Hollywood Reporter‘s latest issue, out now.

Here’s what the Homeland star had to say…

On Homeland’s popularity: “Three episodes in, people were literally running out of stores, charging me with enthusiasm. I’d never experienced that before. My So-Called Life had this amazingly rich afterlife, but there wasn’t that appreciation as it was airing…There were parodies on Saturday Night Live and in MAD Magazine. That’s a real sign that you’ve made it, getting roasted. There was a porn made about us.”

On taking a look at their portrayal of the Muslim world after being accused of peddling Islamophobia throughout the show’s run: “There was always some parallel like that — but the bombings and shootings in Paris, that’s what made me jumpy. I didn’t know that we were always going to be mirroring current events so directly, that that would be such a part of the DNA of the show.”

On shooting the final season: “We were so much about reflecting what was happening, politically, in the moment. How that ages, how we perceived it and what that exposes, in 10 years’ time, will be compelling to see…I need this last season released into the world before it really ends for me, and then I’m sure I’ll surface eventually. It’s going to be a long process of seeing who I am as an actor out of this show — which has defined me for so long. I don’t know where to start, but I should play somebody decidedly sane.”

Claire Danes Unveils the 'Homeland' Final Season Trailer at Showtime's TCA Panel

Claire Danes sits on stage while participating in the Homeland panel during Showtime’s portion of the TCA Winter Press Tour on Monday (January 13) in Pasadena, Calif.

The Emmy-winning actress was joined on the panel by her co-star Mandy Patinkin. They unveiled the trailer for the show’s final season, which will premiere on February 9.

The final season of Homeland finds Carrie Mathison (Danes) recovering from months of brutal confinement in a Russian gulag. Her body is healing, but her memory remains fractured – which is a problem for Saul (Patinkin), now National Security Advisor to the newly ascendant President Warner (Beau Bridges). The top priority of Warner’s young administration is an end to the “forever war” in Afghanistan, and Saul has been dispatched to engage the Taliban in peace negotiations. But Kabul teems with warlords and mercenaries, zealots and spies – and Saul needs the relationships and expertise that only his protégé can provide. Against medical advice, Saul asks Carrie to walk with him into the lion’s den – one last time.
