“Los Angeles is known as the city of dreams,” Williams began the segment, “and sure enough, all my dreams have come true here.”
Seated right behind her during the speech was the Star Wars actor, seemingly oblivious to the camera focused on him and his star-studded table.
Moments into her speech, Williams realized it’s not easy to share the screen with Ford, who is not only an acting legend but also her co-star on Shrinking.

The celebrity audience broke out into laughter as Ford was captured unassumingly munching on what appeared to be some crackers.
When he realized that all eyes were on him, Ford bashfully turned around and hid himself behind his co-star.
Williams, who couldn’t contain her own amusement, yelled: “I told him to turn away!”
“Don't look!” she humorously screamed.

The actress continued with her speech, joking about how she was able to fulfill her dream of “preparing in a Starbucks bathroom before an audition to my dream of crying in a Del Taco bathroom afterwards.”
“I've lived my dream of changing clothes while parked on a street nice enough to have shady trees, but not so nice that some white lady called the police on me," she added.
“But more than just a dream factory, this city has always been my home,” the actress continued.
“I am Jessica Williams, I am LA born and bred,” she concluded, “and I am an actor.”
