“The key’s been pretaping segments with celebs like Jimmy Fallon and Gwyneth Paltrow, who are naturally funny and talented.”
Since the star, 45, won’t be able to have a live studio audience, she’s been doing at-home segments centered on things like health and cooking — but she expects her guest interviews to help her stand out from the competition.
“Drew appreciates everyone’s efforts,” says the source, “and is keeping her fingers crossed.”
