11:36 pm
back to work after a two-week vacation. it is hard to get back to work after a vacation, even when you have a stupid job like this it is hard to get back to work. yesterday was labor day. you know, they say you're not supposed to be white after labor day. i really had no choice, i blame my parents. labor day to me is the most depressing holiday of the year, because summer is over. although you wouldn't know it from the weather around here. the best way to tell when the season changes around here is when the costume outside changes from greenish to brownish. you know, we're not the only ones with costumes, begging for neighborhoods. they do it in times square, too, for some reason, the artist painted two naked women and put them on the street. which came as quite a shock to -- [ cheers and applause ]
11:37 pm
>> jimmy: in times square. that is what it looks like. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: when a muppet goes through puberty, i think he finally found something he loves more than cookies. speaking of muppets, guillermo is on twitter, how was your vacation? >> oh, i went to cancun. >> jimmy: in mexico? >> yes. >> jimmy: and they let you back in? guillermo went on a tear this morning on twitter. at 4:59 a.m., he tweeted i am hungry, also afraid to go to the kitchen and start making noise. why are you afraid to go to the kitchen? >> the wife is sleeping. >> jimmy: and then 20 minutes later, he wrote, i think coffee and green juice, perfect breakfast. what kind of green juice are you eating? >> my wife made kale, celery and
11:38 pm
parsley. >> jimmy: what was the last item? >> parsley? >> jimmy: broccoli? >> no, parsley, yeah, >> jimmy: and then he tweeted, no more breakfast burrito, i need to stay healthy, who were you talking to, yourself? >> yeah. >> jimmy: and another tweet, my favorite grocery, and he tweeted a picture of himself outside whole food. and who took this picture? >> one of the employees. >> jimmy: one of the employees? >> yes. >> jimmy: you gave them a camera and asked them to post a picture of you? >> yes. >> jimmy: and then posted it for all to see? >> yeah. >> jimmy: and then one more, he tweeted, burned calories without working out, great news. so how do you burn calories without working out?
11:39 pm
>> just drink juice. and that is it. >> jimmy: okay. all right, well, richard simmons will be here tomorrow, we'll pass that along to him. >> oh, yeah, yeah, okay, i'll tell him. >> jimmy: we have a good mix of guests for you tonight. vin diesel is with us tonight. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: vin is not his real name. his real name is vehicle identification number. we'll also be joined by a very smart kid, zachary maxwell, who made a documentary about how terrible school lunch is, this kid blew the whole lid off. turns out the ladies in the plastic caps? making millions. and we'll have music from john legend tonight.
11:40 pm
chapter chaum. >> jimmy: this is good news, the nfl returns on thursday night. and time warner cable subscribers in new york and dallas are happy because the company finally settled their dispute with cbs, as a negotiation tactic, time warner blacked out all the stations for a month. people were forced to get by with only 777 other channels, according to the reports, cbs will get two dollars from you, per month, and time warner, it is what they call a win, win, ll cool j can purchase as many hats. this is entertaining. this happened at the camping world truck series in ontario, canada, this weekend. a driver named max pappas another drive here, stick with
11:41 pm
us, until the angry girlfriend shows up. >> awesome show, and -- come back again. >> jimmy: well, he has a smile on his face even after what happened. >> and most of the competitors are mad, but all the fans are happy, i mean, what an incredible weekend we have had in canada. >> 14 ten top straight wins -- >> jimmy: not all the fans, wow, the real housewives are everywhere, aren't they? anyway, he put his head back on, he will be back on track next week. and the upcoming panel for idol, this year they will have three judges down from four, and they also added a gong, which i think is long over due, jennifer lopez is coming back. the new judge is harry connick, jr., they should have to serve at one point, like their version of jury duty.
11:42 pm
the surprise is that randy jackson is also returning to the show as a mentor for contestants. he was supposed to be kicked off the show. this will be quite a transition for randy, now instead of telling the contestants, dog, you blew it out the box, he will have to say dog, blow it out the box. oral roberts university held a series to celebrate the new season. they released a real life eagle inside the chapel as part of the ceremony, and here is how that went.

a complete loss. and dennis rodman returned to north korea this morning, and with any luck, for good. he says he is not going there for diplomatic reason, he just likes being taller than an entire country. actually, he is going to hang out with his friend, kim jong-un, this could turn out to be the most romantic love story of all times. if somebody told you dennis rodman, a basketball player, was hooking up with kim you would assume they meant a kardashian, right? major news out of hollywood, the leads for the movie "50 shades of gray" announced, very big news for your horny aunt dotty. and melanie griffith's daughter, and the casting in particular was a surprise since it was widely assumed that the role for the male would go to me. but this is charlie from the
11:44 pm
music "pacific rim." interesting fact, charlie was created in the same lab that they created chris and liam hemsworth. you know, no offense, i think they were a little hasty on the casting on this. who knows, maybe there was somebody who would be better, maybe there is somebody right outside the theater right now? just to be sure that the producers of the movie "50 shades of gray" would be right. we went out on hollywood boulevard to see if we could find somebody better. what are we looking for here? >> i'm basically looking for any perverted tourist couple who knows how to read. >> jimmy: all right, let's listen to these two. >> stephanie fowler from chattanooga, tennessee. >> wade fowler from chattanooga, tennessee. >> stephanie fowler, that is your name? >> that is my name.
11:45 pm

12:25 am
>> jimmy: and what happened at the end? >> well, i was becoming more reckless in the filmmaking, because i wanted to get the shots that i needed. and they also got like distracted because they were looking at girls, so they were not really paying attention. and then the lunch monitor came along and she caught me. >> jimmy: did you fire your friends? >> yeah, definitely. >> jimmy: you did, you got rid of them. what happened when the lunch monitor caught you? >> well, she brought me to my classroom teacher, but my classroom teacher told me to delete everything. so i just kind of fiddled my thumbs, not really doing anything. >> jimmy: oh, you pretended to delete. and adults will believe almost anything, right? >> yeah, they don't understand the switch board. >> jimmy: yeah, we have a clip from your movie, well, let's take a look. >> you see what is being served up.

one that made it out. >> and he also told me to treat like filmmaking as a job, like you're not special or anything. and just to treat it as a job. >> jimmy: oh, well, he is a lot of fun! >> and he also told me like, don't die. >> jimmy: that is very good advice. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i mean, eventually, but are you going to do more movies? do you have something in mind right now? >> well, right now i'm working on a project for an adhd client. >> jimmy: you have a client? >> this is the production company called maxwell project, and the next documentary is going to be a film about the awkwardness of teenagers. because i'm going to go to like middle school and i'm going to start growing body hair. and i'm going to start to smell. and get glasses and braces. i'm going to look real good in middle school.
