Peggy Mad Men

Peggy Olson was a fan favorite on “Mad Men” for many reasons, so it was no surprise when the internet went nuts over Peggy’s strut into the offices of McCann Erickson at the end of the “Lost Horizon” episode. 

But at an appearance on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on Thursday night, Elisabeth Moss, who played Olson, said shooting this now famous scene was not fun to do.

“It was not cool at all," she told Meyers.

"I was holding this box, and everything on ‘Mad Men' is super real so they made the box really heavy. I was like, ‘I can act that,’ but no.”

But there was something fun Moss got out of the experience. She chose the on-set music to walk to.

“I was like ‘Stayin' Alive,’ obviously," she told Meyers, referring to the Bee Gees song. “I'm walking down a hallway, what else would I be listening to?”
