>> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live!" tonight, rob mcelhenney, uzo aduba, and music from middle kids. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: well. hola. i'm jimmy, i'm the host. thanks for watching and thanks for joining outside a very special day here in los angeles, california. today is cinco de mayo. [ cheers and applause ] that's right. most americans think cinco de mayo is mexican independence day, but it's not. it is -- guiller guillermo, should i explain? >> guillermo: yes. you're the owner, yeah. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: cinco de mayo is the day white people and their coworkers order margaritas at chili's. [ laughter ] [ applause ] actually, no.

this is a historically important day for all north americans. it celebrates mexico beating back the french at the battle of puebla. if the french had won that battle, they would have likely allied with the confederacy and helped the south win the civil war. just wanted to mention that, because a lot of people lately need a reminder that the south didn't win the civil war. [ cheers and applause ] so we have a debt to mexico for that. guillermo, will you be permitted to drink at home tonight? >> guillermo: yes, a little bit, but i will. >> jimmy: special occasion? >> guillermo: yes. >> jimmy: all right, very good. it's kind of funny, though that we make such a big deal out of cinco de mayo, mexico doesn't. it would be like finding out the canadians get hammered on flag day. [ laughter ] of course the big item in the news today, the major international story is, the artist now formerly known as diddy, and about 200 other things, is once again changing his name. legally this time. and he's got a driver's license to prove it. p. sean "diddy" daddy posted this photo of his actual florida driver's license with his new middle name today, which is

"love." his name is now sean love combs. i like it. it would be funnier if it was sean love honey combs, but -- [ laughter ] who even knew florida had driver's licenses? by the way, we had to blur some of the information out, but but that back out there. sean love combs did not. he posted his address, his license number, everything. all we need now is the routing info for his checking account, and his mother's maiden name. we'll have everything. although by the time we get it, he'll probably change his name again. he's gone by diddy, p. diddy, puff daddy, puff, puffy, puffleupagus i think, and now sean love combs. he goes through names faster than most of us go through electric toothbrush heads. so there you have it. the '90s really are back. if you were doubting they weren't, they are. [ laughter ] facebook today -- are people still on facebook?

facebook upheld their ban of donald trump today -- [ cheers and applause ] at least for another six months. according to their oversight board, they deliberated and decided for the time being trump will continue to be blocked on facebook, instagram, and in bed with melania, which is a weird thing for them to throw in. [ laughter ] this has to be driving him nuts. if trump runs for president again, he's going to have to go door-to-door talking to voters like a jehovah's witness. [ laughter ] "hello, my name is donald. have you heard the bad news about mexicans?" [ laughter ] trump has been banned from facebook since january 7th, his punishment for trying to overthrow the government is the same you give a teenager for coming home late after curfew, no social media for you! [ laughter ] which is kind of sad because today marks the five year anniversary of what i believe to be one of his greatest posts of all-time. "happy cinco de mayo! the best taco bowls are made in trump tower grill. i love hispanics!" [ laughter ] [ applause ] that's a tweet that really has it all.

it's got an advertisement for his own restaurant. he brazenly and ridiculously tries to pander to hispanics. it's got a pile of food. it's got a golf trophy there for some reason. and a smile that says, it's my 4th birthday. [ laughter ] a number of trumpublicans weighed in on his facebook ban including qanon-gresswoman lauren boebert who tweeted, "this morning, facebook banned trump permanently. facebook will pay the price. mark my words." then she almost immediately deleted the tweet. nothing says "mark my words!" like immediately deleting those words. [ laughter ] [ applause ] trump is like a bullhorn without batteries right now. but he is trying to change that with a new page on his website and a high-end new video to promote it. >> twitter permanently banning the commander in chief's personal account with 88 million followers. ♪ ♪

♪ >> jimmy: you see? it should say "save america from president donald j. trump." but it's a slogan now. trump calls this a platform, but it's really just a website that he calls "a place to speak freely and safely." there's only one problem, the site doesn't allow any replies or comments or likes. the only person speaking freely or even at all, is him. finally he can speak freely and safely with himself on his new -- i'm not 100% sure but i think he just started a blog, really, is all he did. [ laughter and applause ] a lot of his chambermaids defended him today. ted cruz wrote, "disgraceful." and boy would he know disgraceful. sweaty teddy posted this last night. "had a great dinner tonight with president trump at mar-a-lago. he's in great spirits! we spent the evening talking about working together to re-take the house and senate in

2022." let's look at this photograph a little bit more closely. first of all, look at trump's body language. he so is ready to go, his ass is half off the seat. [ laughter ] there's not a chance these two "had dinner." he gave ted cruz cough fee coffee and a glass of water and sent him to the marriott down the street. [ laughter and applause ] that table is where they seat you at a wedding in hell. with those two. [ laughter ] twitter is rolling out a new thing. i don't know if you noticed this. twitter has a feature now that will double-check with you before you post a mean or offensive comment. the way it works is after you write your tweet, if it detects anything untoward, you get a message that says "want to review this before tweeting? we're asking people to review replies with potentially harmful or offensive language." and then you have to decide if you still want to tweet what you wrote. some people are excited about it. some people want to get on the list.

this was the one comment on a techcrunch article about this. "can we get "nazifur" added to the toxicity list?" it's used by furrys who want to demonize other furrys who they hate and it causes them irreparable reputational harm. [ laughter ] that's right. it causes harm to the reputations of those of us who like to get a handy in a squirrel costume. [ laughter ] i don't know. i don't think i like this new thing. twitter, what about people who tweets on television?ding mean - [ cheers and applause ] did anyone stop to think of them? you know before twitter, people had to move to l.a. to find mean people who don't know what they're talking about. [ laughter ] speaking of people who don't know what they're talking about, eric trump was on "hannity" last night. he's apparently still welcome there. while he was there he rattled on about how terrible things are >> lumber is going through the

roof, the price of two by fours, $3 under my father, now $9, $10. a person wants to build a deck, it costs them 4,000 bucks when it never did before. >> jimmy: hear that? eric trump can't get wood anymore. [ laughter ] go on. >> you're not seeing that, you're seeing a sleepy, quiet, rather boring administration in there. love him or not, you know, the one thing that no american will ever say is that donald trump didn't go to war for this country every single day. >> jimmy: no, no. he went to war with this country every single day. [ applause ] i love their new complaint is that the president is boring. as if this is a new season of "ozark" or something. [ laughter ] we're now midway through national teacher appreciation week. and this is how they showed appreciation this morning on "fox & friends." brian kilmeade had on a group of kids who have been unable to go to school because of covid restrictions. and he didn't exactly get what he was expecting, at least from one kid. >> we're very, very close to getting back to school.

and i think that the way that our new president is handling things is a very good way. and we would not have gone to this if it were still the last president. >> really? that's hard to believe, because the last president was saying, i want every kid back in school. >> jimmy: stick to the script, kid, you'll get me in trouble! [ laughter and applause ] >> jimmy: i'll be on "access hollywood" before the end of the show! i love that. four people with a sixth grade education sitting around having a conversation. [ laughter and applause ] as more americans get vaccinated, mask use is going down. fewer people are wearing masks. vaccinated people are wearing masks less, which makes sense. unvaccinated people are also not wearing masks outside. less than half of unvaccinated americans say they're wearing masks now. that's not how it works. that's like, "baby, we don't need condoms anymore. my buddy jeff just got a vasectomy." [ laughter ] it doesn't apply to you. we have come a long way since a

year ago thanks to people who follow science and scientists and doctors and are generally looking out for their fellow man. for anyone who thought the previous administration had any of this figured out, i would like to remind you that they most certainly did not, in a new history."f "this week in covid - >> this week in covid history, as we begin may 2020, president trump soothes an ailing nation. >> it's all working out. it's all working out. it's horrible that we have to go through it but it's all working out. >> yes, everything is going gangbusters. if only the mean old media was on board. >> i amprs,he lf e. th alw g treated worse. >> penny for your thoughts, abe. oh, yes. that. and let's not forget who this hurts most. >> to the people that have lost someone, there's nobody that's taken it harder than me.

[ laughter ] w it'se finamrner >> as iecous as d me, tryg virus w to drive a nail through jell-o. >> great one, laura, what necessarily. >> there's more than ample evidence hydroxychloroquine

saves lives. >> right. >> now they're saying 120,000, 134,000 could die by covid by august, what? >> yeah. what? we're not going to hit those numbers until -- june. but in the meantime, it's time to get back to what really matters. >> i would hope that within maybe the last couple of months we'll be able to do rallies. >> yes, rallies! let's get out there and spread until we're dead! this has been "this week in covid history." [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: they killed herman cain at those rallies. we have a good show for you tonight. uzo aduba is here. we've got music from middle kids. and we'll be right back with rob mcelhenney. ♪ ♪

>> guillermo: happy cinco de mayo, everybody! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: oh, that's lovely. >> people at home assume that's water. >> jimmy: it is not water, no. >> you assumed incorrectly. >> jimmy: it was water at one time, it ain't water anymore. [ laughter ] >> no. >> jimmy: so you are -- have you ever worked under the influence? like have you ever had a situation where you've been genuinely intoxicated or under the influence of anything at work? >> well, sure. [ laughter ] we've been known to party. however this season of "mythic quest," we had snoop dogg as a guest. >> jimmy: yes. >> a guest star. >> jimmy: yes. >> snoop does not drink alcohol. he -- he smokes marijuana. [ laughter ] as we all know. >> jimmy: wait, there's no gin and juice for snoop at all? >> well, i don't -- i think he passed that time in his life. >> jimmy: oh, he's evolved. >> yes. >> jimmy: and here we are. [ laughter ] >> yeah. and so snoop -- so snoop agreed

to come on the show. and -- which was a surprise to me. but was -- we were so happy about it. and -- and his call time was 7:30 a.m. and i assumed, okay, well. i don't know what time he's going to show up, he can show up whenever he wants, he's snoop. and i'm there around 7:15. and i get a knock on my door from the wardrobe department saying, snoop's wardrobe is here, do you want to take a look at it? i go into his trailer, i see it hanging in the closet. it's this skin-tight 6'4" mocap suit -- >> jimmy: i think we have a picture. >> yeah. i'm like, he's not going to wear that. but sure enough, he did. [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> jimmy: yeah. >> he did. he was game. so -- i'm like -- well -- at the time, i don't know he's going to wear it. it's like 7:15, 7:20. okay, let me figure this out. all of a sudden i hear the bus, his bus is rolling up, he's early. now i'm thinking, oh, no. i've got to get him into wardrobe. you know what i've got to get out of here. i get out, go to my trailer.

15 minutes later, knock on the door, snoop wants to see you. okay. [ laughter ] i'm assuming he's unhappy about the wardrobe. i walk in, he's already wearing it. [ laughter ] he goes, what's up, man? hey, what's up, snoop? he goes, you want to smoke a joint? [ laughter ] i was like, well- yeah, 7:30 a.m. [ laughter ] but if snoop comes to your place of business. >> jimmy: yeah. >> asks you if you want to smoke a joint, you say? yes. so i said yes. >> jimmy: right. >> so, being a responsible apple employee, we couldn't do it on the premises. we went to his bus. [ laughter ] and he had three rolled joints. and i don't usually partake, especially on a workday, especially not at 7:30 in the morning. however, again, when snoop asks you to smoke, you say -- >> yes! >> again, being very responsible, normally i'd love to share a joint, but it's covid time.

>> jimmy: right. >> again, we want to be responsible employees. i smoke an entire one. [ laughter ] myself. hold on a second. it turns out, if snoop asks you to smoke at 7:30 in the morning on a workday, you say "no." [ laughter ] because by 7:46, i was -- i was hurtling through the atmosphere. [ laughter ] at 30,000 miles per hour. directly towards mars. >> jimmy: yeah, because in order for snoop to get high, whatever he's smoking has to be of the highest possible level available. >> yes. >> jimmy: and we have -- i think we have the clip of that scene that you shot with snoop. >> yeah. >> jimmy: now let's watch it very closely together, see if we can detect anything in your eyes. >> okay. >> jimmy: here we go. >> snoop! mr. dogg, i'm a anite girl. >ot a littl agin

>> wheou releasing that -- >> when you releasing that new album? see you. >> i have a porsche. [ applause ] >> jimmy: you were able to talk and walk and everything. >> turns out acting -- first of all, acting is not that hard, let's be honest. [ laughter ] i know you have a lot of actors on here, but i'm going to -- here's the secret, it's not that hard. [ laughter ] and walking. is not that hard either. >> jimmy: yeah. i started when i was 2. >> the problem for a lot of actors is walking and talking at the same time. >> jimmy: uh-huh. >> but now -- i mean, usually i can handle both those things at the same time. now you throw in whatever snoop smokes, and walking, and talking, and acting, at the same time. and it becomes very, very difficult. [ laughter ] very, very difficult. >> jimmy: i had this identical experience with snoop dogg. and probably every single member of our staff has had that experience.

[ laughter ] but many years ago, snoop was on "the man show." and i had never really smoked anything before in my life. and i walked in his house. and he's like, do you want to smoke? and i didn't want to offend him, it's his religion, after all. [ laughter ] and i did smoke with him. and then almost instantaneously i said to the director, "i am of no use now." [ laughter ] "i need you to help me." >> yes. >> jimmy: i went right into snoop's refrigerator and started eating whipped cream right out of the thing. [ laughter ] and then we had lunch. and snoop had ordered chicken. and i was just mowing through a whole bucket of it. and snoop was standing in awe, off to the side, with his friend. and i overheard him say, "my nephew done ate six pieces of chicken already." [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> you got off easy.

you got off easy because i had to go back to work. only one of my jobs is being an actor. and again -- >> jimmy: oh, because you -- >> acting is not that hard. >> jimmy: because you're the executive producer. >> yes. snoop leaves, good-bye, little boy! i'm like, bye, dad! again, i'm like -- i'm well past neptune, i don't know where i am. now i have to go back to work, not on camera where you can kind of fake it. i have to be executive producer. i had a call scheduled for noon that day. which was lunch. to go over a line item budget with the studio. [ laughter ] and my assistant came and up said, you know, should we reschedule? and i was like -- [ laughter ] got it. we're having that. and i -- apparently i had a blast, because i was just like, sure! yes! spend! whatever, don't worry about it! >> no problem. >> no problem! >> jimmy: rob mcelhenney is with
