At the Showgirls 30th anniversary screening in Austin, Texas, at the historic Paramount Theatre, Goddess star and Doggy Chow enthusiast Elizabeth Berkley was on hand to introduce the now-celebrated cult classic, which has evolved from a notorious box-office flop into a beloved midnight-movie phenomenon adored by fans around the world.

The audition featured the notorious restaurant scene where her character, Nomi Malone, shares an intense lunch with frenemy Cristal Connors (Gina Gershon). In the clip, Berkley delivers the now-iconic, over-the-top dialogue with striking precision, revealing that both women once dined on dog food, divulging the origins of Cristal’s name, and culminating in a simmering showdown that perfectly foreshadows their love-hate rivalry to come.
