The queen mother of King's Landing, Cersei Lannister, has always been known for her drinking and ability to throw out an insult or two to whomever is graced with her presence. Talk show host Jimmy Kimmel loves taking advantage of that whenever Lena Headey appears in his show that's why, on Monday, he had the actress read real insults from the women who participated in the ABC reality show "The Bachelor."

Of course, even if Headey was not in her Cersei costume, Kimmel wanted to come as close as possible. That's why he provided the fancy goblet and wine to gain a semblance of the signature Cersei Lannister style. Headey was game for it and delivered the lines from the teleprompter with as much Lannister spirit she can muster.

Why put those two together? Kimmel said that the way Cersei can say the meanest things in a cool way is something that also happens in the reality TV dating show, and it seems he was right to make the connection because the actual insults Headey read could definitely be mistaken for things Cersei could say.

Watch the video for yourself below:

This isn't the first time Kimmel asked Headey to channel her character in HBO's "Game of Thrones." When Headey appeared on his show back in June 2014, he expressed his fascination at how Cersei is unparalleled when it comes to pouring wine and drinking from a goblet and spewing insults to whoever drinks with her. That is why he asked Headey to act as Cersei and throw insults at him while they drank wine together. Watch the video below to refresh your memory.

Watch "Game of Thrones" when it returns on April 24 and see what would happen to the queen mother who was publicly shamed by her own people.
