During an interview with NPR nearly 20 years ago, she recalled landing the role in the Oklahoma!, Rodgers and Hammerstein play. During the audition, Celeste was asked if she had comedic chops to play a simple girl from the country. She explained, "'Well,' I said, 'What does that sound like?' And he said, 'It's a bald, bold, unedited voice.'" She replied, "So I said, 'Well, I can call a hog.' He said, 'I dare you.' So I said, 'Sooooo-weeeeee.' And at the end of that, he said, 'Well, that's loud enough, that's funny enough.' And that's how I got my job."
