watching. [ cheers and applause ] i am jimmy kimmel. this is the show. and we have a real, we have a great show for you tonight. we are going to start. we have great music from preservation hall jazz band tonight. the very funny david spade is here. and, for the first time, since we have been on tim gunn is here from "project runway." which i am excited about. i am going to admit something, make of it what you will, i have seen almost every episode of "project runway" which is weird. i have no interest in fashion. i don't know what season i am. i don't know what my color chart is. i am a cool winter or soft spring. i don't know. but i like that show because i like tim gunn. he makes it work for me. and i also like, i like the idea of the show. they give a team of designers, a limited amount of materials. and they challenge them to make something out of it. once they gave everyone, they gave them $100 and send them to the supermarket had them make
11:37 pm
outfits out of food. one of them made their dress out of bananas. this was long before lady gaga was wearing meat. and so, it's fun to watch these talented designers being resourceful and creative. so, since tim is here tonight. i thought it might be fun to issue a similar challenge to untalented designers. so what we did is -- we picked three couples from our studio audience tonight. and they are standing here, what are your names? where are you from? let's go through one at a time. >> we are david and valerie from new york city. >> reporter: david and valerie from new york. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: you guys? >> we're from miami, florida. >> jimmy: from miami. >> pete and rose from new jersey. >> jimmy: pete and rose. >> pete and rose. >> jimmy: charlie and hustle here. do any of you have any
11:38 pm
background in fashion or se seamstress work or anything. you are under oath. >> no. >> jimmy: tonight we have fabric, glue, chicken wire, we have got, everything. we are going to have each couple design an outfit for your spouse. okay. one of you will design an outfit for the other one. when tim gunn comes out later. he will judge. one of you will be -- i don't know, carted off to an insane asylum or something. okay. you have 30 minutes. go into the workroom. get going. all right. go ahead. guillermo, lead them right that way out the door. they're going to make an outfit. in 30 minutes. [ cheers and applause ] this is going to be a mess is what it is going to be. tomorrow we are bringing in a group of 6-year-olds and doing the same things but with ipads. they will make it. in new york last night former congressman anthony weiner the first candidate to concede in his bid to become the democratic candidate for mayor.
11:39 pm
not sure who won the election all i know is anthony weiner lost he got less than 5% of the vote and came in fifth. that is a shame. got to be something else he can run for. i have 3,000 more weiner jokes. maybe i can get him on dancing with the stars. he is a strange guy. in his concession speech last night was weird >> sometimes people would come up, wrap their arms around me, pull me close, whisper in my ear, take my hand, and they would say don't quit. well there was never any quilt in this campaign. i'm sure she has seen it plenty of times before. but -- i think maybe we have gone too far with the never quit thing. we get down on quitters. some times okay to quit. some times recommended. hypothetically you are a married guy running for mayor after being busted for sexting, you apologize and promise never to do it again, you are still doing it with a woman who hopes to be a porn star one day.
11:40 pm
quit, the thing to do is quilt. go home try to avoid making eye contact with your wife. you know, while losing the election was bad news for anthony weiner, it was great news for carlos danger. carlos danger, which is his name, you know, just opened, four new j-date accounts. now that everybody knows he goes by carlos danger online he is going to need a new screen name. a lot of free time. thought we may do him a favor. help hem coim cup up with the n one. i had the props department make wheels, first names and last names, guillermo, give those a spin and get this guy a new screen name here. now do the last name. last name too. >> can't go through life with just a first name only, unless you are madonna. or guillermo. fernando passionpanlts. fernando passionpants. we'll go with passionpants.
11:41 pm
>> i -- i saw -- a story yesterday about some one i would very much look to meet. her name is jote amgay, made her first trip to celebrate status as shortest woman in the world. >> how are you doing? >> fine. >> she is a little lady with a big smile and personality to match. believe it or not this young woman is 20 years old. standing just 2 feet and 1/2 inch weighing 12 pound in the guinness world record book as the world's shortest woman. she can't walk great distances so i took turns with the family friend to help her get around town on her first-ever visit to new york city. >> i love new york. >> jimmy: oh, my! now she is even shorter.
