i'm dan ashley. >> i'm uh ma daet -- uh ma dates. still to come, jeff bridges. dicky: from hollywood it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, jeff bridges -- from "the walking dead," lauren cohan -- and music from jeff bridges and the abiders -- with cleto and the cletones -- and now, to set things off, here's jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪

>> jimmy: welcome, welcome. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for coming. a great night. welcome, welcome. you know, there's a big parade in boston today. thousands of people gathered to cheer on their super bowl champion new england patriots. the parade was originally supposed to go on yesterday. but they moved it because it was snowing there. thousands of people again showed up, including super bowl mvp tom brady, coach bill belichick, and this man who was here with us the other night, that is rob gronkowski, the tight end. somebody threw him a beer on the thing, you can see. and of course rob enjoyed that beer. and then he enjoyed some more of that beer. and then he spiked the beer. and this is a guy who knows how to have a good time. this is what he did -- i think he's twerking. or humping.

what a character he is. you know, i tell you something, if a bear did that on top of a bus they'd shoot him with a tranquilizer dart. maybe next year he could do the halftime show at the super bowl too. meanwhile in other sports news, some very big changes are reportedly in the works for olympic gold medalist bruce jenner. you know, for the last year people have been joking that it looks like he's turning into a woman. well, according to his mother, who did an interview yesterday, he's turning into a woman. rumors that something might be up started because of photos like these. you see he's got longer hair, more feminine features. his mother said she had a long talk with bruce about it. she said he is in transition. although based on this shot it looks like he's transitioning into becoming a verizon guy. but i have to say, just when you thought you were all caught up with the kardashians, this happens.

i guess this is the result of being surrounded by such strong female role models. the makes sense if you think about it. women do live longer than men. so i wonder how kanye is handling this news. it could be very confusing on father's day for him. sources say bruce will come out as transgendered in an interview with diane sawyer in may, presumably before his new reality show premieres. if they don't call that show trans-jenner, i quit. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] one of the big adjustments when someone who's been famous for a long time changes sexes is training yourself to say she instead of he. we experienced this with dhas bono. i had a hart time with it. we went on the street so people could congratulate bruce, also so we could help train them to get the proflouns right. >> as you know, bruce jenner is going through a transition right now.

to become a woman. we're wondering what you think about the whole thing. >> i think it's wonderful require have such deep compassion for him -- >> her. >> because he's had to -- >> her. >> her, i'm sorry. okay, her. >> what do you think about the news that bruce jenner is transitioning into a woman? >> i think that that's really personal. and if he wants to -- >> she. >> if -- if she -- wants to be a woman then -- i hope that she's very happy. >> what do you think? >> i think that it's important for her family -- >> his. >> his family to support him. >> it sounds to me like he -- >> she. >> my apologies. sounds like she just -- >> he. >> oh, he? oh, i'm sorry. >> that's okay. >> it sounds like it's a new show. whatever, he can do whatever he wants. >> she. >> she can do whatever she wants.

>> if it's true, good for him -- >> her. >> sorry, good for her. i mean, if she wants to do it then go for it. >> he, yeah. >> yes. yes. >> are you a fan of bruce's? >> a bit. he's a funny -- >> she. >> she's funny, i'm sorry. got to get used to this. yes, she's funny. >> i'm a track and field runner so i really -- i'm a fan of what he did in the olympics -- >> she. >> she did in the olympics. >> he. she. >> and -- but -- yeah, haven't been paying attention to -- her -- like -- >> his. >> his. >> she. >> i think that's fine. that's up to him -- >> her. >> her. exactly. she decided to -- >> he. >> he decided to make that transition, that's his decision. >> her. >> her decision. >> i think that's perfectly

fine, you know. if he's -- >> she. >> she, she, she. >> she. >> i think it's cool. we should let him be and live his life -- >> her. >> sorry, yes. let him be and live his life -- >> hers. >> we should not judge. >> will you be watching bruce's new shoe? >> absolutely, i'm always intrigued. it will be interesting to see what she does -- >> he. >> if bruce is watching is there a message you want to give him, her? >> good for you, man. or woman. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> be a good woman, man. >> she. >> you know what i think about that? he can do anything he wants. >> she. >> whoa. he, she, whoever it is. >> she. >> she. >> he. >> he. >> she. >> he, she. >> he. >> she. i don't care. you know? personally, i really don't care. [ cheers and applause ]

>> jimmy: so confused. it's going to take a long time, going to take a lot of self-control and a long time for us to deal with this. if bruce jenner becomes a woman does that mean six more weeks of winter? in legalized marijuana news, the very first pot vending machines have arrived. and they're up and running in seattle, washington. that should help them forget about the super bowl, right? the machines are -- they say they're designed to speed up the process of buying marijuana at dispensaries, which is good news. most of the stoners i know keep their schedules pretty tight. this is a machine, it's called zazzz. there's a touch screen. and you can place your order and choose whatever marijuana you want. like there's one called girl scout cookies. and then when you add it to the cart, the pot drops down in the machine just like a packet of

cheez-its or something. i don't know if they thought this all the way through. now when the people who use this get the munchies they go to the vending machine, the only thing they can get out of it is more pot. could wind up in a never-ending loop. a fruit loop loop is something. women still have to get a note from their doctor to get birth control but you can get pot from a vending machine. a crazy world we live in isn't it, guillermo? >> guillermo: yes, it is. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: sometimes i like to see if he's listening. >> guillermo: i am. a great way to get pot. >> jimmy: okay, thank you. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] quite an advertising campaign. i love to read. i've always wanted to be part of a book club. but most books are too long. i don't have time to read 400, 500-page novels. i found a type of book that does not take long to read at all. they call them children's books.

"good night moon." in the great green room there was a telephone and a red balloon and a comb and a brush

and a bowl full of mush. good night, cow jumping over the moon. >> and -- and the moonlight. >> jimmy: almost. good night, light. good night, stars. good night, air. good night, air? who says good night to the air? >> nobody! >> jimmy: good night noises everywhere. >> really? >> that was the book. >> jimmy: that's it. do you know when this book was written in? >> 500s. >> jimmy: the 500s, no. anybody have a guess? >> the 16s. >> jimmy: the 16s? no, not the 16s. >> 20 train? >> jimmy: 1947. >> what? whoa. that's back in the day. >> jimmy: from back in the day, yeah. >> way back in the day. >> jimmy: yeah. so let me ask you a question. what do you think this book is -- what do you think they're trying to say? >> they're trying to say good night. >> yeah, good night. >> it's a bedtime story. >> jimmy: it is. in the book, why do you think

they say good night to everything in the whole house? >> i don't know. >> because everything's going to sleep. >> jimmy: where is the moon by the way? >> in the air! >> jimmy: i know but where's the real one go in the daytime? >> it's in the sky. >> no it's down below in the mountains. >> jimmy: it's in the mountains? what do you think? >> well, the sun -- when it's morning the sun comes up. the moon goes back down. goes down. >> jimmy: into its cabinet. >> its cabinet? it's like a kind of drawer. >> jimmy: they keep the moon in a cabinet which is kind of like a drawer. >> you're so funny. >> jimmy: what do you mean? >> they don't put it in drawers. they go into mountains. >> no. mountains are kind of like drawers. >> jimmy: they're almost exactly like drawers. do you know anyone who's been to the moon? >> yeah. >> no.

>> one of my uncles -- >> jimmy: one of your uncles was on the moon? which uncle? >> his name's uncle kevin. >> jimmy: uncle kevin has been to the moon, really? when did he go to the moon? >> like five weeks ago. >> jimmy: how did he get there? >> he took a rocketship. >> jimmy: he took a space shuttle, wow. >> he was in a space suit. >> jimmy: he was, wow. >> that's what astronauts -- they call it astronaut, they call it -- >> astronauts, there's like asteroids -- >> jimmy: i wonder how many uncle kevins are on the moon right now. >> 51,000. >> jimmy: that many? >> many hundred, hundred, hundred thousand. >> jimmy: what do we think of "good night moon"? >> like it! >> jimmy: you recommend to it other kids? >> yeah. >> all right, you guys want to go to sleep? >> no! >> no! >> jimmy: all right.

it's great. >> jimmy: that's high praise. >> thank you? my grandma's probably the biggest fan. >> jimmy: oh, really, your grandma. >> my grandma has the most opinions. she checks in with me, she'll call me after this. >> jimmy: she will? >> she says hi. >> jimmy: tell her i said hello as well. >> i will, i will. >> jimmy: she critiques everything that you do? >> she loves it. she'll talk about the hair. she used to say cute things. i love when it you do the rock 'n' roll hair but i love it when you do the marilyn hair more. and i was like, oh, that's good. >> jimmy: that means she doesn't like the rock 'n' roll hair, right? >> no, she likes polished things. >> jimmy: i see. >> can i do something funny? can i actually play a voice? she'll leave me a voice mail message. >> jimmy: from your grandma? >> she'll call me, whatever. yeah, so last season -- >> jimmy: this is not of her humming? >> no. but i have one of those too. no, but this is her. >> hi, sweetheart.

grand pa and i watched your season show, the first one. we watched it at lunch today. because we had to watch the eagles last night. i'd rather watch your show but that's the way it went. and i think your show is so good. but i think this season, really it was just so amazing. the special effects and everything. and you just look great. and there were some scenes where you look glamorous. i couldn't believe it. >> that's grandma. >> jimmy: she couldn't believe it. >> well, this is a short call. [ laughter ] >> you got my little package. if you or your little assistants -- >> jimmy: i don't have an assistant. >> oh, no. >> i'll talk to you maybe on this coming weekend. >> jimmy: oh, wow. that's very cute.

[ cheers and applause ] you've got to save that message. >> yes. she has -- >> jimmy: your little assistants. did you tell her you have assistants? >> i had a friend who picked her up from the airport now and she thinks that -- >> jimmy: i see. >> i kind of like this idea that your family thinks that once you're on a hit show, then all of a sudden you're like completely changed. >> jimmy: you're a billionaire all of a sudden. >> yeah, yeah, exactly. like i just throw these shoes away when i leave. >> jimmy: yeah, right. that can be good, that can also be very bad too when it comes time -- they say, can i have your shoes? you say, no, they're my shoes. >> no, i need to wear these home. >> jimmy: when you're covered with blood, leaving the set, stop, drive through taco bell or anything like that just to freak the people out? >> i don't stop to do that but there are times when i leave without washing. like -- because you get very tired and you leave the set. and i had one day where i was like elbow-deep, you'll

understand this, in guts. and i just was tired and i had to go. i'm driving home and i never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever get pulled over, i'm a really good driver, mostly. and on this one instance i literally have blood up to here. but not only do i have blood up to my elbows, we had a fight scene and i had like twigs and all this dust. i have dust in my teeth. i'm so freaking filthy. and i'm driving home and i see the sirens behind me and i get pulled over by a cop. and i'm thinking, he's either going to stop me then run away himself, because i look like a psycho, or i might get away from this if he knows i'm from the show. he comes beside me. i literally take my script and i think, this could help me. i prop the script up, i'm so sorry, i just left the set. made sure he understands. so lo and behold, like i'm standing there, waiting for him to run the thing. instead of a ticket he actually said, and little lady, i don't see a ring on your finger, does that mean you're single? and i was like -- yeah!

and i so wish i just had the ticket. >> jimmy: yeah, right. >> i'm about to try and -- >> jimmy: how many dates did you guys wind up going on? >> well, he put a ring on it. >> jimmy: what a beautiful love story. >> that would be. >> jimmy: it's going to be an ufshlg situation i would think. i think i would wind up dating the cop for probably maybe even six to eight months. >> that's when you know. >> jimmy: that's when you really know it's true. when you're willing to go the distance. >> introduce him to grandma. >> jimmy: would grandma like you dating a policeman? >> no, but grandma tells me i should travel with protection in the car. my grandma's awesome. >> jimmy: i can't imagine a grandma watching the show in general. >> i'm not kidding, when she talks about the special effects she's really paying attention. i really found this makeup effect is more realistic, please tell greg he's doing a great

job. >> jimmy: grandpa's like, can we put the game back on? >> where's the eagles! >> jimmy: it's good to see you, congratulations on the huge success of the show.
