I'm obsessed. I love them. I think they're so good. They're so fun."

She continued," And they've made me appreciate cars...I'm down to play new characters and whatever. Whatever it takes, but I'm very down for a crossover moment. I think you've tapped into something that is a true love of mine, so I would be so down."
