i really can't believe i'm hosting a network late night talk show. alone. inside a weird house. with no laughter. wow, this is both the high and low point of my career. i want to thank jimmy for letting me host his show while he's on pregnancy leave. i'm really happy he's keeping this one. the last time i saw jimmy in person was actually just a couple days before the quarantine when i taped an episode of who wants to be a millionaire where i accidentally locked in a wrong answer and this happened. no! no! no! the day after i taped that, i decided that instead of going back to my place in new york, i'd go to my parents' house in st. louis where i could stay for a week or two until this whole corona thing blew over. here's footage of my reaction when i realized viruses don't blow over. no! no!

no! it's honestly not been so bad being stuck living in st. louis with a couple in their 60s it could be worse, at least it's not these two. my mom would never wear horizontal stripes. i gotta say though, not much has changed since the last time i lived at home. i still sleep late, my room is a mess, i steal their weed. the main difference is now if i'm going to my room to masturbate, i say "mom, dad, i'm going to my room to masturbate. i can't watch any more "down to earth with zac efron" with you guys. ol' glaz dog's gonna finish this ep alone. as grateful as i am to have this time to get reacquainted with both my parents and the zack morris poster over my bed, i'm not pretending that any of this is worth it. i love how so many girls are making this crisis about themselves. i keep hearing some version of this. "honestly, this pandemic was a sign from the universe that i needed to slow down."

and it's like, no becca, i don't think a half a million people died so you could recommit to your yoga practice." i've even been guilty of this reasoning. before covid hit, i was getting laser hair removal. i was halfway through my 12 sessions and had to stop. and i swear the other day i looked down was like, "i guess i was never meant to have a hairless vagina." that wasn't god's plan. apparently, his plan was for it to look like a south american soccer field. i don't even care what it looks like anymore. who cares? it's not like anyone is seeing it. and when they do. i'm guessing i know their reaction. no! no! no! and dr. drew will be there! i can't even date right now. if i meet up with a guy, i risk exposing my parents to covid. i don't want my mom getting intubated so i'm not getting intubated. and can i even trust a guy i

meet online to keep six feet away? do they even know what six feet is? or am i going to show up and it's going to be more like 5'8 and three quarters? and even if dating didn't put my parents' lives at risk, every social distance date sounds like it's putting my life at risk. they have the same setting as every true crime podcast. "let's go for a hike in the woods" or "let's meet up at the southeast corner of the best buy parking lot." "i guess i'm down for a picnic at the abandoned quarry, but why do i need to bring zip ties and garbage bags?" so in order to date during quarantine, i've actually been speed dating live on my instagram. which is depressing but also humiliating! and i thought you might enjoy coming on an internet date ride along with me, so it's time for nikki's quickies. ♪ >> yeah, let's do this. hi! >> hey, nikki, how's it going? >> i'm good, how are you? >> thank you, great to meet you.

>> his background kind of intimidated me at first. it looked look he was shooting a beheading video for al qaeda, then he was the nicest guy ever. can i meet your mom? >> you want me to get her right now? >> yeah. >> i got to get up carefully. i don't have pants on or anything, hold on. >> oh, my! >> neither do i! >> there we go. hey. >> hi. >> hello. what kind of girl are you looking for, for your son? >> a girl who would treat him well. who would be his sister, his friend, his lover. >> i hear you have a nickname? >> yeah, boots. >> all right, well, what do you like to do for fun? >> i still do a little research work on the computer. >> investigating big foot? i like that it looks like boots has been in quarantine since

1977. >> are you ready to play [ bleep ] marry, kill. which one would you like to do to me? >> marry. doesn't marry apply to the other one? if you marry then i [ bleep ]. >> let's be honest, a lot of them end in murder. what do you do besides hang out in a basement? >> i'm a test engineer for panera. there are a few things i'm looking for in this job. one, i'm looking for the chicken salad recipe. >> right. >> because they have a chicken salad, fantastic, and then they changed the recipe, and they added walnuts, and almonds and grapes, and i'm like what monster did this to me? >> what else are you looking for, other than someone to stain the rest of that fence? >> i don't know, someone you could be comfortable doing nothing with. >> are you ever going to be in l.a.? >> yeah, i'm actually there next week.

>> we should hang out. >> all right. >> mark paul is up next. let's see who this is. oh, my, uh, mark paul gossler? >> you must be nikki. >> hi. i can't believe i'm on a date with mark paul gossler right now. >> that you're calling this a date, that's so cute. >> that's what this is. i'm speed dating with people. >> wait, this isn't a charity thing? cause -- >> no. >> the producer said that by doing this i was granting a wish to a very sick woman, is that not what this is? >> um, well, yeah, i guess in a way that's exactly, that's exactly what this is. thanks.

>> nikki: thank you, mom and dad. welcome back to "jimmy kimmel live". i'm your host for the night, nikki glaser. tomorrow, i'll be spending even more time with my parents, but george lopez will be here hosting with his guest willie nelson. my first guest tonight is a hotel heiress-turned-reality-star- turned- business-mogul, with a new and unexpectedly revealing documentary that i can't stop thinking about. >> no one really knows who i am. something happened in my childhood that i've never talked about with any one. i still have nightmares about it. >> nikki: "this is paris" premiers sent 14th on youtube. hi, paris. >> hello. so good to see you. >> nikki: so good to see you, too. how are you feeling with the anticipation of this coming out? because there are some pretty revelatory things coming out, how are you feeling right now? >> i'm excited, also very

nervous given the topics discussed in this film, because it's things i've never talked about. really personal and traumatic experiences. to talk about that publicly is obviously very hard. >> nikki: it is. you really go there. and you've really gone there in reality shows and versions of yourself. you've peeled it back from "the simple life" where we were first exposed to you. but i feel like this is just a whole new level. what is it like being on camera in such a real way? i really feel like we got to know who you are. how is that transitioned from being followed around all day and being you? >> obviously, i'm used to being on camera from being on camera for so long, but i've always been a naturally shy person, so i loved inventing this character and playing that character, and to actually be myself was a

completely different experience, but also almost therapeutic in some way, where i learned so much about myself that i had no idea of, you know, why i am the way i am. and now i understand myself so much more. >> yeah, i feel like everyone will understand you more. i feel like i was already a huge fan going into it, i was like, i know the real her, and then i was like, oh, no, i did not. it's taken me everything not to send my secret link to all my friends and be like, we need to watch this and discuss. i'm so excited for people to see it. what have you been up to in quarantine? you are at your manor which you call your house. what are you doing all day? because are you a workaholic, which we learn in the documentary. how has this been not being able to work as much? >> i'm used to being on a plane 250 days a year and traveling. this is the first time since being a little kid that i'm stuck in one place.

so obviously, it's a scary and difficult time around the world, ima tryi i'm trying to see the silver lining in it. so just being home, a lot of art, a lot of cooking, spending time with my pets and my boyfriend. still making the most of it. >> nikki: we get it, you have a boyfriend. stop bragging. you guys are so cute, tell me what it's like to have a boyfriend in quarantine? >> chill together, we watch "the simple life." he's not like a reality person. he's an intellectual man. to see him watching something like that is fun and entertaining. >> nikki: you're such a sex symbol to me at least. i love that you were given a nickname in your life, i'd love if you'd share that with us. because it actually empowered me. >> my nickname is ms. blue baller. >> nikki: now explain that a little bit. i think we can get there on our

own. you don't give it up easily. you make them wait for it. >> yes, my mom always taught me since i was a little girl guys want what they can't have. i've always been very prude in that way. yes, i like to kiss and make out, but that's it. so i feel that most girls are not like that, so guys are not used to it. but i'm so happy my mom taught me that, i'm going to teach my daughter the same thing. i think it's way hotter. >> nikki: i needed you to teach me that. it's a struggle. girls feel pressured to do something they don't want to do. since we've had that conversation i've been making out and trying to keep it at that. i really did learn a lot from you in this documentary. i learned how to surveil boyfriends. i love that you get a new computer for every guy you date. that was awesome. you have stacks and stacks of computers, just bought trust issues that you talk about in the documentary, you kind of reveal. you have a lot of footage of

them. you would set up cameras just to have them if they were at your place. did you sit there and review footage and have to watch it for hours and hours? >> no, i actually only did that to one person. i just don't trust certain people. if i'm going to have to go out and work and they're going to be alone in my room, i don't want then going through all my things. i wanted to see what was happening while i was at work soy don't have to worry. >> nikki: i love, love, loved your documentary, "this is paris" on september 14 on youtube. people are going to freak. thank you so much for sharing so much of yourself and being you. i love you, paris. >> i love you. >> nikki: we'll be right back with phoebe robinson. ♪ ♪ fairy tales can come true ♪ can happen to you sure.
