[ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: thank you. welcome. very nice. thank you. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for coming. you picked a mighty good night to be with us tonight. we have a rock star-studded show tonight. for the first time ever, jon bon jovi is here. [ cheers and applause ] and not just a jon bon jovi, the jon bon. the real one. [ laughter ] i know guillermo is fired up. you look good. >> guillermo: thank you. >> jimmy: you look super cool. >> guillermo: thank you, jimmy, thank you. >> jimmy: at one point it's like guillermo actually dressed like this, no kidding. how old are you here, guillermo? >> guillermo: 17, i think, 18. >> jimmy: are those bootleg

scorpions shirts you're selling? or were you an authorized dealer? >> guillermo: no, jimmy, no, no. >> jimmy: what is your favorite bon jovi song? >> guillermo: "you give love a bad name." >> jimmy: okay there you go. [ cheers and applause ] you dug deep for that one. this is interesting. for the first time ever, the women's ncaa basketball final got more viewers than the men's final did. [ cheers and applause ] 24 million people watched south carolina beat iowa. a lot of it because of the phenomenal scoring machine caitlin clark, who will almost certainly be picked first in next week's wnba draft by the indiana fever, which i think is important to say is a very bad name for a basketball team. [ laughter ] indiana fever sounds like something mike pence gets from drinking room-temperature milk. [ laughter ] in washington, there was a big state dinner at the white house tonight. the bidens hosted the prime minister of japan and his wife.

there they are posing for a photo, standing awkwardly. you know, joe biden, his state dinners are a little different than the usual. for one thing, they start at 4:30. [ laughter ] and you can only get in if you have a groupon. [ laughter ] they always have a theme. the theme of the dinner was a celebration of washington's famous cherry trees, which, i didn't know this, were a gift from japan in 1912. and of course, the cherry tree is also the basis for one of our nation's most cherished untrue stories about a young george washington, who used his new hatchet to chop down his father's cherry tree, and then when his father asked "did you do this," he replied, "no, it was a total witch hunt." [ laughter ] "i never met that tree, it was a perfect chop, i'm allowed to chop that tree down because i'm president, waah waah waah." [ applause ] the musical guest was paul simon. that's big. trump was lucky to get the surviving members of o-town, but

japan got an evening of simon & joefunkel. [ laughter ] there's a lot of planning that goes into the menu for a state dinner. you don't want it to offend. they want it to reflect something about the guest country, but still highlight american food. they want it to be seasonal and impressive but not too ostentatious, and then of course they need to consider what kind of food is least likely to come flying out of biden's mouth when he talks. [ laughter ] speaking of talking, one of the big debates right now is about if there will be any debates. five major news networks are working on a joint letter to both candidates. they said the letter isn't finished because they're waiting for more networks to sign on, but it's taking a while because no one at newsmax is able to read or write. [ laughter ] [ applause ] the networks want biden and trump to commit to three debates. or one hilarious mma fight. [ laughter ] with the winner taking on either jake or logan paul, i'm not sure. [ laughter ]

as november gets closer, the president is doing more interviews. last month, he sat down with msnbc. last night, he sat down with univision. i'm not sure if he's doing this for more exposure or if he just needs to sit down. [ laughter ] either way, biden gave an exclusive last night to the spanish language channel univision. the interview got off to a bumpy start when biden asked the guy interviewing him to bring chips and salsa for the table. [ laughter ] but other than that, it was a good interview. the president did well, and i thought the guy asking the questions knocked it out of the park. >> guillermo: thank you for inviting me to your home, mr. president. this is the whitest house i ever been to. okay, my first question. out of all the people in the world, who do you think ate the most chicken nuggets? >> donald trump. >> guillermo: seriously? >> seriously. >> guillermo: next question.

how come birds do not pay taxes? do you think that's fair? >> well, guess what, man? it's about time they start paying their fair share. >> guillermo: i agree. i think we need more money from birds and ladybugs. and one more final question. mr. joe president, i notice you do not have a moustache. a lot of people are saying you should have one. >> who in god's name is saying that? >> guillermo: everybody, bro. would you be willing to have a moustache for america? >> absolutely. >> guillermo: okay. here you go. now you're going to win for sure. thank you, president biden, for this fake interview. do you want to do some chats with me? let's get crazy. [ cheers and applause ] back to you, tony! >> jimmy: well done, guillermo. >> guillermo: yeah. >> jimmy: you're really getting good at this. we ought to make that happen for real, you know?

>> guillermo: yeah, of course. >> jimmy: donald trump today took a break from trying to derail his porn star hush money trial to make a "surprise" stop at a chick-fil-a in atlanta. he likes to go into fast food restaurants and buy everyone food, like a bigshot. he bought 30 milkshakes and some chicken, then started passing it around. and one young woman in attendance at the chick-fil-a became an immediate fan. >> i don't care what the media tells you, mr. trump, we support you. >> we love you. >> 4:00 p.m. >> let me give you a hug. >> okay? >> so nice, thank you. >> thank you! ah, tell me mama, baby! >> thank you, sweetheart, that's really nice. the black colleges, universities, they're taking care of nell. she understands it, a lot of people don't understand it. biden did nothing for them. i think i did everything, i did everything.

>> jimmy: just a former president muttering, "i did everything," i did everything" to himself at a fast food chicken restaurant. nothing unusual there. [ laughter ] i would have given anything for somebody to ask him right on the spot, name one black university. okay? [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] let's have a look at that photo. i'd like to see what that looked like. oh, yeah, there you go. [ laughter ] look at that. man of the people. [ laughter ] joe biden invested $7 billion in historically black colleges and universities. universities -- [ applause ] but trump, who lost georgia last time, believes bigly and strongly that this time, he deserves to win. >> why should people of atlanta vote for you? >> because i've done more for the people of atlanta than any other president by far. i've done more for the black community than any other president since abraham lincoln, and maybe including abraham lincoln, frankly. but since abraham lincoln. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: who is this person?

the fact that he's able to say the words "i've done more for the black community than maybe abraham lincoln" and not start laughing hysterically, it's incredible. [ laughter ] he might as well be saying "i am a black person." [ laughter ] it would be equally preposterous. [ cheers and applause ] meanwhile, our friend mypillow man, mike lindell's doing battle with imaginary voter fraud. i don't know if he's out of money or what, but he's doing everything he can to sell stuff to pay his mounting legal bills. and to fund his fight against the machines, which, i am now starting to understand why he hates them so much. >> all the blankets, skrom down further. scroll down. the towels. why don't you scroll down. scroll down a little bit. scroll down a little more, brandon. scroll down, brandon.

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: he's on a scroll what can you say? [ laughter ] we learned last week from donald trump, of all people, that mike lindell got married. which i didn't know about. he married his longtime girlfriend. they even have a bridal registry. this is, as far as we know, for real. mike lindell and kendra reeves.

the guy who sells every product under the sun has a bridal registry on another site. one of the gifts they registered for is a trash can. sadly, nobody bought it for him. it still says "1 of 1." so i went ahead and bought it for him. [ cheers and applause ] even though i wasn't invited to the wedding! i really want to know about his wife. i really do. let's check in with mike now, who's in pillowtown -- >> so use promo code drivesleepin for 79% off this beautiful handmade steerin' wheel pilla! >> jimmy: mike? >> is that you, jesus? >> jimmy: no, it's not jesus, it's jimmy kimmel. >> ah! come on, now, you jimby criminal! >> jimmy: are you selling a pillow for people to sleep while they're driving? >> heck yes i am. i get some of my best sleep while i'm drivin! 10 and 2, that gives you a full 8! >> jimmy: isn't that dangerous? >> come on. is smoking crack dangerous?

[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i mean, this is the kind of thing, these stories that you hear, you don't ever hear about the thousand other guys who do this and it doesn't work out. but for you, you literally took the song to a radio station. >> right, and you can appreciate this, coming from radio. >> jimmy: yeah. >> look, the most passionate man in the music business is a deejay. why? because he's alone with a microphone preaching the gospel of music to who knows who. if anybody. and at that time, when deejays were really influential -- >> jimmy: right. >> and i wasn't getting any response to "runaway" as a cassette i was sending around to anyone and everyone, who's the guy? a deejay. let me go out there. and the station was so new, they didn't have a receptionist. so i literally knock on the window of the booth. he said, shh. came out out of the show was ever, heard "runaway," said, "it's a hit."

taking advantage of the "star wars" craze. he was pretending to be a young man singing the song, sounded like an old man pretending to be a young boy. he said, "young boy, can you sing?"

knew everything was right. motown bass line. we didn't work it up until we got to rehearsal. >> jimmy: did that make you question your other decisions in any way? >> yeah. >> jimmy: it did. bruce springsteen is your idol. a guy you saw being from new jersey, being an italian kid from new jersey, oh, you can an rock star, right? >> when you grew up in the late '70, you know, you had posters from circus magazine on your wall, led zeppelin, queen, ul the lynyrd skynyrd. that was impossible. that was another planet. 30 miles south was asbury there was seven e strooit street band members. they'd been making records. 10, 12 years older than i am. you can go down and touch the impossible. it was right there. all of them wanted a free drink, so if you'd buy them a drink, they'd tell you anything. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: they'd talk to you. you and bruce are friends. do you ever get over that? >> no. >> jimmy: no, yeah. >> no, he's him.

>> jimmy: "i'm here with bruce." >> no, never. >> jimmy: you do things with bruce? >> we do. i've known him my whole adult life. then when i was a kid, the first time he jumped on stage with 1979. i have a story to tell. i'm playing with southcider bruce. i'm still in high school. nowadays, we go out of our way to spend time together. the story that's gotten around is we take these drives. we -- no radio, no phones, the two of us will go for 100 miles where the two of us can lock the door and go for a ride and talk. >> jimmy: oh. >> catch up. >> jimmy: my god. >> for the first five, six, seven times, "i wish a cop would pull us over, this would be a great shot." [ laughter ] but now there's lots of sightings. it's like bigfoot. because we've been everywhere, you know. people see you at the flea market or the ice cream parlor or the bar. you know, we've done it a bunch. >> jimmy: we've got bigfoot here. [ laughter ]

from inception through 1990 was that rocket ship to success. it was everything you'd ever dreamed of and were willing to sacrifice to get to that place

that you thought was the end. it was being on the precipice of what was to become greatness and longevity, or falling backwards and being the end. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that is from "thank you, good night: the jon bon jovi story." premieres april 26th on hulu. so many great stories. i got an advance look at it, and you guys seem like you had a lot of fun? >> we had a lot of fun. we were in a rock band. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. there's a story want to ask you about that is not in the documentary. people are going to get to see all these stories in the documentary. but bon jovi and michael jackson appeared in tokyo the same weekend? >> same period of time, yeah. >> jimmy: same period of time. there was some cross-over. and you -- did you spend time with michael jackson? >> yeah, everybody wanted to

meet michael jackson. so ritchie and i had the opportunity to go up to his room, and we walked into his hotel room, which was all done up in mirrors so he could dance. they actually took a wall out between these rooms. >> jimmy: in the hotel? >> absolutely, because he was there for quite a while. and his manager takes us in, fixes his hair, puts his cigar out, fixes his shirt before he enters the room. all very surreal. michael comes in with the bullet belts across htd are his shirt. it's michael jackson in his hotel room. we were telling him a story about how we had come from australia. how we'd bought wigs and moustaches and beards so we could go out into the community and be with the young -- the crowd. and he just played along as though he'd never done any such thing. to find out, of course, that he had done that all the time. >> jimmy: yeah. >> so now, you know, we think we're friends. we say, "come on down to our floor and hang out, we've got the whole band here, the girls,

our girlfriends and all are here." unfortunately, he didn't come. but he sends bubbles the chimp as his representative. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: wow. that's a strong -- >> that was big, right? bubbles comes down and wreaks havoc. bubbles partied like a rock star. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: how did bubbles arrive? bubbles was in your room loose? >> oh, yeah. [ laughter ] oh, yeah. jumping on the bed. putting on a show. oh, yeah. and i don't remember who brought him down or if he just came down on his own with a cigar. [ laughter ] bubbles showed up, man. he hung hard. >> jimmy: how long -- how long would you guess bubbles was in the room with you? >> seemed like a lifetime. [ laughter ] quite a while. >> jimmy: did bubbles -- >> to the point where hotel management came and threatened to throw us out. >> jimmy: is that true? >> oh, yeah. >> jimmy: wow. michael can have bubbles but you can't, how about that. >> we partied with bubbles. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: wow, that's great. you know, bubbles is still around. every once in a while i think

about him -- >> he's on tour? >> jimmy: he lives in florida, i think he lives near legoland in florida. you should go by, reminisce. you mentioned "slippery when wet." >> oh, yeah. >> jimmy: i remember this so well. i remember reading about this controversy. >> yeah. >> jimmy: maybe i saw it on "entertainment tonight" or something like that. >> there it is, yeah. >> jimmy: this was the album cover. >> that could have been. >> jimmy: that could have been. this is -- this was rejected for content reasons, yes? >> i would have called it career suicide, but yes. >> jimmy: yeah. this, true or false? the model is former speaker of the house nancy pelosi? [ laughter ] >> i can neither confirm nor deny. >> jimmy: so then they said, okay, you can't do that, not allowed. >> this is in an era before there was such thing as the computer. there was no fax machines. there was no fed ex. there was no cell phones. we're in vancouver making this record. and it's out of our control, what's going on with this album

cover. and they send a xerox copy -- blue on blue when they'd send it in a photographic form. i said, "this is a terrible photograph, it's cropped really poorly, by the way, what is the outline?" "hot pink." i said, "where the hell did you get hot pink?" "we match it to her lipstick." i said, "it's career suicide." "you give love a bad name" is literally on the radio. our manager went to bat for us and they burned 500,000 album covers with the single on the radio. "you're in trouble this album needs to be shipped." that album cover right there, the real black, hefty garbage bag i shot with the photographer. i took my fingers and wrote "slippery when wet." i said, "there's your album cover, turn it in. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: you know what? he's not just an artist, he's an artist. i mean, that's so crazy.

>> that was scary. you know, at the time, i just said, "it worked for back in black, let's give them a black album cover." >> jimmy: unbelievable. it's going to be a lot of fun sharing your life with the world. >> well, we'll see about that. >> jimmy: are you nervous about it at all? >> it's crazy, because they say you see your life flash before you just before you die? i saw my life flash before me and i haven't died yet. i'm waiting for the other shoe to fall. it's an incredible docuseries. it airs on april the 26th. >> jimmy: and you've got an album coming out too? >> yes, the first single, "legendary," is a hit on radio, which is crazy. album hit is june 7th. >> jimmy: jon bon jovi, everybody.
