way this week, you can actually curl up anytime with our abc seven news yule log. we are streaming it 24 over seven. just head to abc seven news.com or put it on your big stream with the abc seven bay area streaming tv app. a cup of cocoa sounds like a night previously on "jimmy kimmel live!" -- >> lou: from hollywood, it's “jimmy kimmel live!” tonight -- eddie murphy, teyana taylor, and music from mitch rowland.

with cleto and the cletones. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: wow, thank you very much. welcome. hi, there. hi. how you doing? thank you, cleto. hi, i'm jimmy, i am the host of the show. thank you. thank you for watching. thanks for going the extra mile to be here. glad you're here. this morning, we woke up to what has become a very modern tradition. it's that special time of year when spotify takes all the data they've been mining from us and publishes it to increase engagement using proprietary secret algorithms that track our every musical moment. it's what the holiday season is all about now. they call it wrapped. somehow, these spotify year-end

wrap-ups are somehow more embarrassing than your porn search history. [ laughter ] my top five artists? qualified me for the senior discount at ihop. [ laughter ] if i show the pharmacist my top five? they give me lipitor without a prescription. [ laughter ] they also added all the listening up from all of us. and who is the top-streaming artist on spotify for the year 2023? is it -- a, taylor swift? that's it, it's taylor swift, yeah. [ laughter ] [ applause ] it isn't "b," there's no "r "d," it's just taylor swift. taylor swift unseated the guy who held the number one spot for the last three years, bad bunny, who will heretofore be known as sad bunny. [ laughter ] i got a weird result this year because i have about 11 people sharing my spotify account. it's always less fun for parents. "let's see, my top three are chris stapleton, olivia rodrigo and paw patrol. how is that possible?

i do wish i could just see my info. i'd really like to see this kind of accounting for everything i do, not just music. like "you ate 345 splices of pizza in 2023." you lost four sets of airpods. you brought home 8.3 miles of cvs receipts. you walked into 37 rooms and forgot what you came in for. you got 19,859 emails saying, greetings, pervert. unfortunately, there are some bad news. i hacked your web cam and washed your jeans once." [ laughter ] so get to work on that. not only did taylor swift move into the top slot on spotify, she may be moving in with travis kelce. apparently it was getting too expensive to live in the kansas city chiefs luxury box. [ laughter ] and so the story -- the rumor is that they're moving in together. and while we have no idea if this rumor is true, there was a large, white moving truck parked outside travis' house in kansas city, so it has to be true, it

can't be anything other than that, got to be her moving in. [ laughter ] i tell you what, i would pay good money to see taylor's face when she gets her first tour of a football player's house. “this is my scarface poster, this is my xbox, this is my one clean towel." [ laughter ] meanwhile, everything's a mess in washington, including our national christmas tree, which fell over last night due to 40-mile-an-hour winds. that's the tree. it fell over at around 5:00, and no one got video of it! 300 million iphones, not one of them was pointed at the white house at 5:00 p.m. a moving truck outside travis kelce's house, they got. no problem. [ laughter ] 40-foot tree almost falling in the white house? nothing. this is why no one believes in ufos. [ laughter ] they had to lift the tree back up with a crane. the last national christmas tree was planted in that spot back in 2021 but had to be removed because it had a fungal disease, and now the new tree got knocked over by a gust of wind. by the way, fungal disease,

knocked over by a gust of wind -- also a good way to describe our last two presidents of this country. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] tomorrow night is the big night, the debate nobody asked for. our governor here in california, gavin newsom, versus florida governor, ron desantis. desantis is running for president. gavin newsom is not. so why are they debating? it's actually very simple. you know how mario has an evil version of himself called “wario” and sometimes they'd randomly challenge each other to a gokart race? it's like that. [ laughter ] the debate is on fox news tomorrow night. and this isn't the only debate newsom has on the schedule. tonight -- in fact right now, as we speak, newsom is in minnesota, debating another semi-prominent star of the gop universe, none other than mike lindell from mypillow. are we able to pop in on that? let's check in on lindell versus newsom already in progress. >> i've got within 300 feet of a long john silver's no more. [ applause ]

>> mr. lindell has made a lot of accusations, so governor, let me ask you directly, is it too easy for californians to commit voter fraud? >> not at all. in california, our focus is on accessibility. there are eight approved methods to vote in the golden state. mail-in, walk-in, skate-in. you can write your vote on a sea turtle. you can whisper it into a topo chico bottle and toss it off the golden gate bridge. you can deposit your ballot into one of our state's thousands, literally thousands of dirty needle drop boxes. you can carve it into a giant sequoia. or you can simply dream it, which is what i do. >> wrong! listen to this guy here, he thinks everybody should just be voting. look, we need to make it harder to vote. i propose that there's only one

polling place for the whole country. so we can watch it real close. it will be in the middle of the chattahoochee national forest and we've got to vote with a pen and there's only one pen. and it's chained to an old wrench just like a bathroom key in a sunoco station. >> sunoco. >> you say sunoco, i say sunoco. we've got to make voting more perilous. that way i, don't have so many darn kids and dead folks and chinese folks the way they do in hollyweird. >> oh come on, you're crazy. that doesn't happen. >> jimmy: okay, all right. seems like it's going great out there. [ cheers and applause ] we'll check back in. yeah, okay. oh, this is something. after a lot of fun, congressman george santos is very close to becoming a former congressman. a rare vote to remove him from office is expected to happen as early as tomorrow. speaker of the house mike

johnson today said a vote to excel santos is a "vote of conscience." most house republicans were like, what the hell, what is that? [ laughter ] if he does go, you know, i mentioned the other night one of the characters i will miss most is this guy. george's smiling sidekick who trots along happily wherever he goes. [ laughter ] i don't know what he's going to do. i have to say, last night, even his happy hype man was feeling pretty low. >> i ask that all my colleagues in the house sit and understand what this means for the future and to set the record straight and put this in the record, i will not be resigning. >> jimmy: well. back to living at mom's in new jersey, i guess. oh, they are? let's go back to c-span. apparently things are getting pretty heated. >> i ain't going to tolerate no more back talk from gabby newsman over here. or his buddies up in silicone alley, where they make vaccine microchips and they have fakeys.

i got a shout-out to chardonnay and cashmere. hey, ladies -- >> that's not cool. cali isn't just about tech. we also make weed gummies. we farm the finest chihuahuas. we have a booming artisanal pornography industry. and we're even one of the top five steel producers in america. >> benedict! holy hell, he admitted it, foefnlgts folks. >> i admitted what? >> the steal. president trump wants us to stop the steal. because steel is what they use to make dominion voting machines. and the plate in my head that sets off all the table buzzers in fuddruckers, that's why i couldn't get the booster. i'm long-range magnetomatized, it sticks right to me. >> jimmy: well, at least they're talking about the issues, right? [ applause ] speaking of the steal, i do want to mention -- the former vice chair of the january 6th committee, former congressman liz cheney, just wrote a book

that gives new insight about what went down in congress when trump's angry storm-trumpers stormed into the capitol. cheney writes that in the hours before the siege, republicans in the gop cloakroom were signing electoral vote objection sheets even though they knew it was all a sham to appease trump. she says congressman mark green of tennessee said, “the things we do for the orange jesus.” [ laughter ] they have a lot in common. regular jesus healed the sick, orange jesus told them to drink bleach. [ laughter ] it's kind of the same thing. liz cheney also says that two days after the election, she spoke to then speaker of the house kevin mccarthy, who said trump was aware he had lost the election. unlike he's claiming. mccarthy said, “he knows it's over. he needs to go through all the stages of grief.” and he did. first there was denial, then anger, then depression, then anger, anger, denial, anger, denial, denial, denial, and anger, anger, denial, and finally insurrection.

[ cheers and applause ] and maybe the most shocking story is why mccarthy suddenly flew to mar-a-lago three weeks after january 6th. >> cheney, mar-a-lago? what the hell, kevin? kevin mccarthy, they're really worried, trump's not eating. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: well, that i don't believe. [ laughter ] i believe anything other than he's not eating. [ applause ] i have another theory about why trump was so depressed about january 6th. january 6th is also the day eric was born. [ moans ] could be why he wasn't eating, okay? the white house yesterday announced that president biden plans to email over 800,000 americans to let them know their student loans have been forgiven. if he can remember the password to his hotmail account. [ laughter ] why he would do this via email, i don't know. you don't forgive big student loans in an email. you go to these people's houses with balloons and a giant check.

you make a show of it. [ cheers and applause ] it's an election year, use your head for god's sakes. should we check back in on c-span? all right. >> dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude! >> no no no no no no no no no! >> please! please! we have to wrap this up. and mr. lindell, i've told you several times, no eating during the debate. [ laughter ] >> but my patented pillow fiber fill is so filling and full o' fiber! and why the hot heck can't i eat and he gets to eat? >> i'm not eating. i'm microdosing white truffles. [ laughter ] >> gentlemen, we are almost out of time. it's time for your final statements. governor, we'll begin with you. >> i'd just like to close by saying, first of all, [ bleep ] yeah! [ laughter ] number two, people perceive california as some kind of vapid, self-absorbed narnia filled with diet gurus and celebrity pet chefs. but they're forgetting about the hardworking, everyday men and women of this state. the crystal healers, the throuples therapists, the botox

shamans, and the yoga deejays. [ applause ] men and women and all the other ones from all walks of life who overcome tremendous adversity to come together to pick grapes in my family vineyard. [ laughter ] as the great anthony kiedis from rhcp once said, "firstborn unicorn, hardcore soft porn, dream of californication." [ cheers and applause ] >> mr. lindell, your closing? >> we're not closing! we're doing great! [ laughter ] sure mypillow's out of money and we sold all our dump trucks and feather fluffers and my collection of bottle craps! >> dude. i think you mean bottle caps. >> no! thank you. bottle craps. i've been saving my bms in empty two-liters of code red. [ laughter ] anyway, get 15% off all season.

women's moccasins with promo code mountain doo-doo bottles! >> hey brother, is that pillow gluten free? i'm getting a little peckish. >> oh, sure, you want to try some of -- you know, for a godless hollywood pedo sodomite, you ain't so bad. >> jimmy: hey, guys. guys? hi, it's jimmy kimmel. >> come on, not now, jerry! we was about just about to french out! [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i just wanted to pop in to say how nice it is to see you getting along. >> we're building bridges, jimmy. >> jimmy: i think that's great. governor newsom, do you think this is helping you prepare for the debate with governor desantis tomorrow? >> maybe, but it's like i always say to my bros down at el porto -- you miss 100% of the waves, you don't grind. >> high five, governor. that's how you talk to the bros! >> jimmy: best of luck tomorrow night, governor. and good to see you, mike. i'll leave you two. [ cheers and applause ] >> the secret ingredient, cadbury bunnies. >> you put the bunnies right in there? my god.

>> jimmy: we got a great show for you tonight. teyana taylor is here with us tonight.

[ cheers and applause ]

>> every time you hear that amazing you think about that sketch? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah, i do. >> you know, every time i hear that -- ♪ da da da ♪ i think of bugs bunny, elmer fudd going -- ♪ kill the wabbit ♪ >> jimmy: oh, yeah. it just triggers that memory. i watched it and he was saying it was 1982. joe said in the sketch. and i thought, oh my god, 41 years ago. i know this is going to sound like i'm kissing your ass, but it looks like you could be 41 years old, it's really kind of crazy. [ cheers and applause ] >> thank you. >> jimmy: you must use an incredible amount of lotion. you look so young. >> a lot of lotion.

>> when i was on the set, we kept having that experience. >> jimmy: yeah. >> they would want me to do -- a scene, they wanted me to run down these steps. it was outside, these cement steps. after i did it, the director said, "can you come down faster with more of a sense of urgency?" and i was like, "no, i can't."

giant thing. did you feel like that? or were you aware of his -- >> of course. i was, like, so nervous. >> jimmy: oh, you were. >> i already love the first one. so like when i heard about them having auditions, i jumped on it right away. i wanted to be part of it. when i got on set it was almost like he was gliding. i was just like -- i was so nervous. >> jimmy: did you interact with him? was it like -- did you guys hang out? >> yeah, he made one new york joke. after he made a new york joke, i was in there. [ laughter ] then we started talking [ bleep ] to each other, that got fun, that got fun. once new yorkers get up, it's a whole other conversation. >> jimmy: i gotcha, all right, great. you were at the met gala, i know. >> yes. >> jimmy: and part of the reason why i know this is you brought a photograph. in fact, i think this might -- in some ways, this rivals eddie's photograph we just looked at. >> oh, lord. >> jimmy: it's smaller, but it's very potent. tell us who was in this photograph.

>> okay. so -- >> jimmy: that's you, obviously. >> yes. that's j. lo. >> jimmy: j. lo. >> margot. >> jimmy: margot robbie and billie eilish. it's hard to see them, but that's them.

[ laughter ] >> what's crazy is i was struggling in the corner by myself, and j. lo walked up. it was like anybody inserted themselves in, so iconic, j. lo.

so we tell her what happening. "margot walked up -- she said nog something, i don't know if she said she used to sew, whatever, it seemed like she was an expert on it, and she didn't even know what to do. [ laughter ] we all was like the blind leading the blind, an iconic moment. >> jimmy: it does seem like j. lo is doing all the work, and billie and margot are just chatting. >> what makes it funnier, a young lady coming out of the bathroom took that shot and showed me at the end of the met. however, the photo was on live. you click the photo, it start moving. i can see margot -- [ laughter ] what is going on? j. lo's like -- >> jimmy: yeah you can see. >> iconic moments, yeah. >> jimmy: that's pretty cool. i mean, that's pretty crazy, right? >> yes. >> jimmy: you had been to the met gala before? >> yes. >> jimmy: okay. >> so three years total. >> jimmy: three years total. is this the best one? >> it was. but then again, i've had some pretty iconic moments at the met gala. the year before last i brought popeye's.

>> this is what i'm doing now. you know, when i'm collaborating with a designer, i had them -- you have personal bags. i had them design me a bag. shout-out to tom brown. he made sure my bag that year was a big flower, enough to fit the food, straws in there, skittles. i had it all. >> jimmy: like a lunch box. [ cheers and applause ] >> i did think i was going to get banned. but honestly -- >> jimmy: why would you get banned? >> anna wintour is a real one. >> jimmy: oh. >> she is a real one. i thought i was going to get banned the first year i did it. i got invited back. "yeah, that's my girl!" she was like, i'm going to let it ride. i think she said, let her sneak her food in in peace. >> jimmy: she found out you were bringing food to the met gala. >> found out now because you're snitching. [ laughter ] you brought this stuff, i didn't bring this stuff. i don't get invited back, we have a talk. >> jimmy: do you share the food? >> i do. >> jimmy: you share the food, of course. i do want to mention your movie. your movie came out in march, right?

was that when it came out? it's a great movie, and you're great in the movie. it's very emotional. it's very -- it's kind of surprising, all that stuff. are you able to cry on command? are you one of those actors who can just cry like that? >> i need a little bit of preparation. i got to feel it. but like when i was on set, i would watch scenes from the "the pursuit of happyness." >> jimmy: the will smith movie. >> yeah, yeah. also filming that movie, i was dealing with postpartum depression so i already had a lot of emotion in me. to cry on the spot, i pull it up on the side. i just see will smith coming out, that last shot. [ laughter ] you know that shot where he -- you know he in that room, they gave him that job, he's like -- [ laughter ] yeah. it just -- >> jimmy: it made you cry. [ applause ] >> y'all, any time he got that job, then he went out on the sidewalk, was walking through new york, and it was just

like -- you know? every single time it take me out, every single time. >> jimmy: i didn't know that was allowed, you could use one movie to make your movie, to get you to cry in the movie. >> absolutely. >> jimmy: usually people think of horrible experiences in their own life. >> oh, no, it was another scene where he had jaden in the bathroom. that scene where they was on the bathroom floor? he had to make it seem like they was in a dream. i think the parent in me was just like, the things we do for our children -- on a more serious note, things we do as parents. it's really easy to, like, cry with him in that moment in that scene. >> jimmy: maybe you should both get a breakthrough artist award for this. although sometimes things happen when he gets awards. [ laughter ] so we have to be careful. we have to be very, very careful. oh, you don't know about that? [ laughter ] >> no. i didn't hear about it.
