>> dickey: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live." tonight, chris pine -- from "nashville", connie britton -- and music from dawes with cleto and the cletones. and now, as you well know, here's jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: hey, i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for joining me. high atop my mountain fortress, i have a lot to get to tonight.

so i'm going to start with barack obama. this afternoon, president obama held a joint press conference with the prime minister of turkey. why turkey, i'm not sure. i think those are the only sandwiches his wife lets him eat. the press didn't really care about the prime minister of turkey. reporters were focused on the numerous firestorms surrounding the white house right now. they drilled the president on benghazi, the irs, the subpoenaed phone records, they want to know why randy jackson is leaving "american idol." and i think the stress is starting to get to obama. at one point he started screaming, i did not have sexual relations with benghazi. and on top of that, it was raining. as you see, the president had a very serious looking marine holding an umbrella for him. that pose seems familiar to me. where do i know that from? oh, that's right.

there's a 5500 square foot house directly behind them. this is what president biden is up to. a 7-year-old boy from milwaukee, a kid by the name of miles nelson wrote a letter to the vice president. he has an interesting solution to our problem about gun violence. bear vice president biden, i have a great idea to make our country safer, better and the best. i think guns should shoot out chocolate bullets so no one will get killed and no one will be sad. sincerely, miles. on one hand, it's great this 7-year-old is concerned enough about gun safety he would write a letter to the vice president. on the other hand, he's clearly stoned when he came up with this idea, right? and that's disturbing. although guns that shoot chocolate bullets would be a great way to liven up an easter egg hunt, wouldn't it?

believe it or not, the vice president wrote miles back. he said dear miles, i'm sorry it took me so long to respond to your letter. if we had guns that shot chocolate, not only would our country be safer, it would be happier. happy people love chocolate. you are a good boy. >> do you think he thinks he was writing a letter to a dog? sad part is, that's the first letter biden received since he took office. miles had a pretty solid reason why they should be made out of chocolate. >> i just love chocolate very much. >> if you really want a politician to get behind guns with chocolate bullets, the guy you should be writing to is governor christie. he will get this done.

tonight, the much anticipated release of the new movie "star trek into darkness." they moved it from friday to thursday because people were having asthma i aing it is a. -- attacks. the film is expected to make $100 million this weekend. that's a lot but imagine how much it would make if the people buying tickets were going with dates. >> whenever there's a big movie coming out, most star trek fans are men, or a reasonably faxsimile of that. many women might not be interested. it's a big budget movie and there are groups of people that aren't interested in that. they cut a variety of trailers. well, this one i believe is an attempt to attract indy movie fans. >> i was almost 30 and my life was going nowhere fast.

i was a slave to my dead end desk job. and city life was getting destructive. then one day, i decided it was time for a change. >> i'm sorry. >> so i went on a trek. i have no idea what i'm supposed to do. into the wilderness. i only know what i can do. sometimes the final frontier is inside yourself. trekking. >> jimmy: hey, apple just reached major milestone. yesterday, 50 billionth app was down loaded from the apple app store. that's more than seven apps for every person on earth.

there's a goat herd in africa leaning on a stick playing doodle jump. just a few short years ago, none of us determined where the closest stranger who wanted to the anonymous sex was. it was like we were cave people. our friends in china are working very hard to keep up with us. this man dropped an engine into a recliner and took it out on the road for a droive alongside another vehicle. it doesn't look like he's having fun at all. you would think a guy who is traling by recliner would be more relaxed. i have to a mitt, that's an hilarious way to die. last night's power drawing was

for $360 million. nobody won it. apparently people just weren't trying hard enough. so now the jackpot for saturday's drawering is $550 million, which makes it the second largest -- i like how you were excited about that, but the other amount -- $550 million? yeah, i might. powerball sounds like something lance armstrong gets after he drinks one of his performance enhancing drinks. the odds of winning are 1 in 175 million. there's an easier way to make that much doing nothing. it's called being a kardashian. if i won the lot i are, this is what i would buy. last night in an auction in new york city, a topless painting of bea arthur of "the golden girls"

sold for $1.4 million. it was sold to an anonymous bidder. you would think the guy who paid $2 million for bea arthur' arthur's boobs would want people to know about it. that's a lot of money. the worst part is now my google search history has the words bea arthur naked in it. my kids do a search for the beach, they're going to think i'm nuts. my morning workout routine is i watch other people workout while i eat apple jacks. this is called the squat front raise. but she's in what appears to be her apartment, which will be important in a moment. play close attention here. >> okay, let's work those legs. full body exercise. we're going to do a squat and a front lift. very important. your knees are behind your toes. your weight is going in your heels.

and when you squat back, you lift the equalizer. >> okay, look at this. there's a man sitting on the toilet in the background. very different kind of squat. you should always close the door when you're on the toilet, but especially when a workout video is being shot in your home. guys are the best, aren't they? there's a lot of scorn lately towards abercrombie & fitch. i would sooner chop off one of my feet than wear their clothes, but they don't carry sizes bigger than large because they don't want overweight people wearing their clothes. there's an interview from 2006 that for whatever reason just went viral with the ceo of abercrombie.

he says he only wants good looking people in his stores because they market to other good looking people. one very perturbed gentleman in particular is going something about it. >> yes, i'm plus sized. the ceo says he does not make clothes for fat people. but that doesn't mean that fat people can't wear abercrombie & fitch clothes. i'm here to show you exactly how you can do it. step one, walk into your local abercrombie & fitch. where are the mens shirts? no, they're not for me. step two, assemblage. take your shirts out.

then none of this would have happened without the ceo of abercrombie & fitch. your clothes are so stylish. they're fantastic. i'm going to wear this shirt everywhere. i look amazing. i look amazing. >> we created the most adorable reality show. it's called the baby bachelor and we're world premiering it tonig tonight. don't go anywhere. discover grey goose, cherry noir.

we did this especially for you. how you doing? >> i'm very well, how are you? >> jimmy: it seems like every time you're here, you've just been on a tour of the world. >> yeah. we're really lovely. it's a film we all really enjoy and a bunch of people we all like. >> jimmy: i thought it was really good, too. i thought it was great. do you like doing that? do you like going around to various countries? >> i do. it's a great opportunity to see a bunch of places. we've been everywhere but -- yeah, i mean, it's -- at the end of the day, life could be a lot worse than what is it like to go to set and what is j.j. like? >> jimmy: what is j.j. like? he was here last night and we didn't really get a sense of him, i felt. what i would like about it is the long flight where is no one can call me.

>> it's an absolute blessing. you would think traveling first class would be comfortable and relaxing, but there's so much to do in first class. >> jimmy: what do you mean? >> there's food, there's games. we took one flight, there's a shower. you see, the whole trajectory -- >> jimmy: you get tanked, wake up, take a shower. the place looks like a homeless camp. showers everywhere. you took a shower on the plane? i never heard of this before. >> there was a fountain outside. it was great. i was exhausted by the time i got off the plane. i was up all 14 hours. >> jimmy: that's unbelievable. a shower on the plane. the whole star trek movie, i'm most impressed by that. when you get on the plane are

people like hey, captain. >> they have no idea who i am. no, no. they're more interested in j.j. >> jimmy: what about in other countries? i know you were in moscow, right? do you get to look around? >> sidney, berlin, london, mexico city, moscow. yeah, moscow was fascinating. we were -- i mean, the city we saw, took a helicopter flight. we saw the whole city. london, we took a tour around. moscow is expensive. it is like -- i had a chicken breast and two scotches and it was $200. >> jimmy: wow. >> that was the most expensive chicken breast of all time. >> jimmy: or you don't understand the currency exchange. >> i'm awful at math. they may have screwed me. i swear to god. $200. it wasn't like a chicken breast and, like, rice. it was a chicken breast. >> jimmy: is it dangerous over there? >> so when we were there, they

had a military parade. they were prepping for this huge military. it's like 1985. they prepped for the parade for 15 days. they do the same parade over -- so by the time the parade happens, you've seen the parade. we ended up having to take the subway to the premier. it's great. on these tours, it's very nice, ve cush. they have security incase someone would like to abscond with you. we have six security guards

pushing people out of the way. which, you know, is -- basically it's like a big banner for please kidnap the actors. >> jimmy: how important could you be, though, if you're on the subway in the first place? >> that's a good point. >> jimmy: is the subway modern? i know a guy who has a talk show in moscow and he told me -- i don't remember his name. but i remember he did tell me, though, i was screwing with somebody on the street. he said if you did something like that in moscow, the person would kill you. they would say you're making fun of me and they would kill you. >> i just shot jack ryan when i was a doing a shot. and there was a kid that's taking a photograph. you know, he's kind of distracting me. so i pointed to this security guy that they have, this guy named igor. of course his name is igor. and he is built like just an oak tree. he's huge. i nod to igor as i walk into the

shot. igor gives me this look like -- so as i walk in, you just see igor come up to the kid and he pulls back his jacket and he has a gun. so he goes for the gun, as he goes for the gun, he kicks -- i mean, it's brutal. it's a whole -- i felt awful. awful. i felt awful. >> jimmy: so igor kicked the kid? >> he kicked the kid, picked the kid up. >> jimmy: wow, that's a tough country. >> i wasn't that mad at the guy. >> jimmy: if you're watching a movie in another country, is it strange to see another language coming out of -- >> it's very weird. again, we went everywhere. the strangest i think was german. >> why? >> it's just very -- it's hard core. it's just a very intense language. i would love, if i had the opportunity, i would love to do -- i would love to do my own dubbing. >> jimmy: do you speak any other languages? >> we live in l.a. so i speak a
