>> dicky: from hollywood it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight. christina applegate. rick springfield. and music from tyler, the creator. with cleto and the cletones. and now,here's jimmy kimmel!

>> jimmy: thank you, everybody. welcome. very kind. and i know a lot of you are on vacation, the last thing you probably want to hear about is work, but this could be very important for your health. so it would pay dividends to listen up. there's a new study that says standing for long periods on the job could lead to long-term back pain and musculoskeletal disorders. we've heard how bad it is to sit all day, maybe the problem isn't sitting or standing, maybe the problem is work. [cheers and applause] this is why i have the perfect job. i stand for the monologue and sit for the guest interviews and

most people can't do that. it's tough for the cashier at der wiener schnitzel. you know, donald trump was, there are 15 months to go on the election. donald trump has reach add saturation level that is nothing short of kardashianesque. in a radio interview, trump said if he was elected president he would love to have former alaskan governor sarah palin on his team. i would love that, too. i think it would be hilarious. i am pretty sure it's how the book of revelations will kick into gear. trump has been busy promoting himself, he paid a visit to "on the record"

susteren. >> some people think i'm not a nice person, but i actually. . i love people. >> jimmy: that is a good step, since we are people. trump is taking heat for an incident that occurred back in 2011. he was being questioned in a deposition, and the lawyer who was questioning him claimed she asked for a break to pump breast milk. she'd had a baby three months earlier, and trump got mad. >> donald trump would not agree to the break. he had an absolute meltdown. when i said that i needed the break and it was for breast pumping purposes, he got up, his face got red. he shook his finger at me, and he screamed, you're disgusting. you're disgusting.

and he ran out of there. >> i don't know. that doesn't sound like the thoughtful, gentle, mild-mannered donald trump. i can't even imagine him using that word. >> rosie o'donnell is disgusting. she was so disgusting. not funny and disgusting. it's a disgusting design. uh, she's disgusting. >> jimmy: we should just vote for him, i mean, come on, think about it. a hot new surf destination has been discovered, and it's none other than north korea. there's a guy who teaches the surf team, he's planning a surf expedition to a, and a camp, in north korea. the north korean government has

approved the plan and hopefully it will boost tourism. in north korea, when they say "hang ten", it means they're executing a group of political activists. up until now, surfboards have been used as a means of escape from north korea. i can't imagine anything that embodies the easy-going surfer attitude than north korea. the beach boys should write a song about it. are you up to date on the tom brady saggy football saga? deflategate upset tom brady, he expected his suspension to be reduced, especially since another player got his term reduced after hitting his wife in an elevator. he took his case to the highest court in all the land -- facebook. he said he was very disappointed

and that no one in the patriots organization did anything wrong. he got a like from bundchen. they said tom brady told his assistant to destroy his cell phone. they wanted to look at his cell phone to see if there were any incriminating texts. why they think they had the right to look at his cell phone, the way they are reacting, you would think they caught tom brady running a meth lab. the owner blasted the league. and this is how bill belichick handled the press conference today. [ inaudible question ] >> it's already been addressed. no. it's already been addressed. >> people had a lot of

questions, you know. public, fans. >> you heard what robert just said. it's already been addressed. >> i just wanted your opinion. >> already been addressed.

whole point of going to the wall with it. i mean, people -- they're all going, why don't you throw money at her? and that's not what i wanted to do. that's not the kind of guy i am. >> jimmy: i don't blame you. i think you did absolutely the right thing. they thought, he's not going to want to spend time on this, he'll give us $25,000. instead, you gave them your ass. >> i did. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: you've been on the show a couple of times. i feel like, there are certain artists that come here and they have fans and, you know, whatever. but your fans seem to be a little extra crazed. i think you made some kind of an impact on a group of women at a certain time -- >> when the window was open. >> jimmy: yeah, the window, it was a big stained glass windows and they were wide open. do you have problems with this sort of thing? what's the craziest experience you've had with one of these characters? >> well, i mean, a lot of crazy stuff happened in the '80s when everybody was still pretty young, you know. i was in a jacuzzi at a hotel once. and this woman was in the

jacuzzi with me -- >> jimmy: i like it already. >> not the usual fan. >> jimmy: oh. >> why are these people looking at you? i said i'm an actor and singer. she goes, really? totally played like she didn't know who i was. eventually she said, i'm an heiress to the marriott chain, hotel chain, would you like free hotel rooms? i went -- okay. sounds good. so she got -- ended up coming on the bus with us to the whole tour. and getting us free hotel rooms. at marriott hotels. and we thought, wow, this is great. and then when the tour was over the fbi came looking for her for all the bad checks she dropped to pay for all the hotels. she wasn't -- she was a stones fan and stalked this whole thing out. >> jimmy: wow. >> she was with us like three months dropping these checks. i went looking for her after the tour. i wanted her to work for me. >> jimmy: yeah, sure. resourceful. you're in this movie with meryl streep, which had to be i'm sure -- when you got that telephone call it was probably

very exciting. >> who is this? >> jimmy: i mean, really. it doesn't get any better than that. >> yeah. >> jimmy: so you get in there, you're acting with meryl streep. she plays a rock musician, you play a rock musician. is this the most intimidating situation you've ever been in? >> yeah. definitely. i mean, she's the top of the food chain, you know. i likened it to being in a band with paul mccartney. it was pretty intimidating. and i'm not the only one that's felt that. i've heard from other actors. >> jimmy: i'm sure, yeah. >> i mean, you know. i got to bring my a-game. that was really the only thought. once you walk into the room and you see her, you know -- my first audition was to be in a -- i had a house in hollywood hills, had a band set up, meryl was there with the guitar. i walk in. just seeing her, it was a ahh moment. she's very gracious. she's aware of that effect. as an actor knows you've got to get past that to get to a truthful performance. she works at getting rid of that. you know, she's a really lovely

person. as well as being a giant talent. >> jimmy: she's playing the guitar? >> it's intense, it's intense. playing the guitar -- playing the electric guitar is a whole other thing than banging on the acoustic. a whole other set of tools. she not only does that, she sings at the same time. i know professional musicians who have trouble singing and playing. >> right. >> and jonathan demi, our incredible director, wanted it all live. he didn't want to do any overdubs. most of the music you see are lip synching. >> jimmy: and it's never right. >> even if you don't know what they're doing you kind of go, hm. you go the rca dog head tilt. so jonathan had not only amazing movies, he also did "stop making sense" and documentaries on neil young. he knew what a live performance should look like. >> jimmy: right. yeah. >> so this was one of the reasons i got the gig was he wanted a real guitar player.

a lot of actors play guitar, not an unusual thing. but it was -- it was a little intense. especially when they said, after the end of the shoot, i'm waiting for the call, let's fix a few things, this was nothing. and i'm, guys, don't you want to overdub it? i've done live stuff before and there's a couple of things that make you -- i saw the movie and i'm really, really happy with it. >> jimmy: i have to say -- >> she kills it. >> jimmy: when i saw the poster i was happy for you. it's weird that she plays ricki.
