The 35-year-old actress appeared on “The Tonight Show” Thursday night to talk about her new film “On the Basis of Sex”, about the life of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, or R.B.G. for short.
During the interview, host Jimmy Fallon shared a video sent in by a “fan,” co-star Armie Hammer, who asked Jones the leading question, “Was there anything you did to prepare for these scenes?”
Jones explained her unique prep involved dancing to Beyonce videos.
“I mean, mostly we were just trying to, you know, loosen up. You want to be easy before you’re doing a scene as the formidable wonderful R.B.G.,” she said. “So one of the things we would do is, we would watch Beyoncé videos. So we would watch a video of her doing ‘Single Ladies‘ and try really, really badly to follow the dance moves.”
Fallon, of course, had to have Jones demonstrate those moves, which she did to the delight of the audience.
