night. stay tuned for jimmy kimmel. ryan seacrest is >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, ryan seacrest, yvonne orji, and music from counting crows. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] >> hi, everybody. i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. things are slowly getting back to normal. our bond theically tones are back in studio. you've been here the whole time. >> i've been here, yeah. because of covid we have no studio audience the people you hear pretending to laugh is our
11:36 pm
staff here at the show. but tonight, last week we had one person in our studio audience, tonight we have two. we're taking it slow. it's couples' night. say hello to our audience. [ cheers and applause ] there they are. all right. thank you and welcome. what are your names? >> my name is chelsea. >> jimmy: chelsea. >> my name is caleb. >> jimmy: how adorable, chelsea and caleb. chelsea, you are with child? >> i am, yes. >> jimmy: congratulations. [ cheers and applause ] have you seen the show before? >> we watch all the time, this is our first time here. >> jimmy: is it possible then the child was conceived while you were watching the show? [ laughter ] >> i guess it's not impossible. >> jimmy: but unlikely? >> unlikely. >> yeah, probably. >> jimmy: what do you do for work? >> i'm a high school spanish teacher. >> jimmy: oh, bueno. [ applause ] how about you? >> i'm an architect for walt disney man fa imaginarium.
11:37 pm
>> jimmy: my favorite, i was in the spanish honors society in high school, though i remember almost none of it. my favorite thing to say, i'd say this all the time randomly in class, was -- [ speaking spanish ] always made our spanish teacher laugh. >> whenever i teach my students that, they love that phrase, they think it's hilarious. >> describes my whole study aroad experience. i just said that over and over again. >> jimmy: people laugh, right? >> yep. >> not always. >> jimmy: oh, okay. as an imagineer, were you part of building the animatronic donald trump in the hall of presidents? >> had nothing to do with it. >> jimmy: i watched that today on youtube. that's something to see, by the way. guillermo called me "pendejo." [ laughter and applause." that means "brave leader," right, isn't that what you said? >> guillermo: yes, yes, exactly. >> jimmy: all right.
11:38 pm
[ laughter ] welcome, enjoy the show. if you get up to go to the bathroom, i've lost half my audience, hold it in. >> i will. >> jimmy: do you watch the bacheloret bachelorette? >> not typically. my best friend is super into it. >> jimmy: don't be ashamed that you don't watch "the bachelorette." [ laughter ] embrace it. they have versions of it all over the world, especially popular in australia, where they just announced the first openly bisexual bachelorette. the contestants for her hand will be men and women. her name's brooke. brooke said, my perfect person is someone that loves me for me, i hope they offer shared values and compassion for others. so she's definitely picking a woman. [ laughter ] and applause ] it little bit h to e youav beeno find love the old-fashioned way, when your dating pool is everybody. [ laughter ] but who am i to question the sanctity of the bachelorette? a lot of people are treating this like it's some equal rights
11:39 pm
triumph. this isn't exactly jackie robinson. i want to remind everyone, it's ahot tub orgy game show, okay? [ laughter ] i do have to say, i'm so mad the australians beat us to this. we should be ashamed of ourselves. what happened to american innovation? what happened to our ingenuity? [ laughter ] i hope your child can fix this for us and lead us in the right direction. this is something. the space travel company owned by jeff bezos, blue origin, i mentioned this a couple of weeks ago, they're auctioning off a seat for their upcoming trip to space. the highest bidder will get launched into orbit. the highested by right now, $2.8 million for one seat on an 11-minute flight. but it's not just a seat on the flight. their site, you can see it says "upon gentle landing you'll be picked up in a truck." [ laughter ] $3 million, you still have to ride home in the back of a toyota tacoma. [ laughter ] the company hasn't revealed the identity of the leading bidder. but it shouldn't be hard to
11:40 pm
narrow it down. who has that -- let's see. who has $2.8 million and might need to get off the planet fast? oh, yeah, that guy. [ laughter ] we'll finally get to meet all the illegal aliens he's been screaming about. [ applause ] it's been a tough week for our former president. his former lawyer and right-hand man, michael cohen, the guy who mortgaged his own house to pay stormy daniels, only to be cast aside by mr. wonderful, michael cohen, who knows donald trump a& well as anyone, believes that in the end the snake will devour his own eggs. >> what's going to happen when all of a sudden they furnish around and they start asking him about his tax returns? or about the devaluation of the assets or the way that he took deductions? "i don't do my taxes, it's my c take me, take melania! take everyone except for
11:41 pm
himself. >> jimmy: almost like he's speaking from personal experience, huh? [ laughter ] the saddest part is going to be when trump forgets to pin a crime on tiffany. [ laughter and applause ] >> jimmy: thanks, guys. the new, new thing in washington now that's dividing congress is the mask mandate. house of representatives. democrats want it, so republicans naturally don't. democrats in the house yesterday blocked a republican-led resolution that would have allowed them to not wear masks to work. it took awhile, but we finally found the one thing house republicans aren't willing to cover up. their faces. [ laughter ] and the main reason these masks are still needed -- the only reason they need them on the floor of the house is because less than half of house republicans are vaccinated. they don't want to get vaccinated, and they don't want to wear a mask. it feels like the end of an episode of "the twilight zone." we finally find the cure for the disease everyone has but they're too dumb to take it. [ laughter ] a lot of republicans are flouting the rules now.
11:42 pm
including klan woman, marjorie taylor greene, who put on quite a show in front of her paper shredder. >> you can't discriminate against people simply because they won't wear a mask. and today i refused to wear a mask on the house floor and i received a warning from speaker pelosi that leads to fines if i continue to refuse to wear a mask. well, here's what i think of your warning speaker pelosi. >> jimmy: so cool, right? [ laughter ] of all the problems we have in this country. that's what this imbecile is focused on. maybe she can put her brain in that shredder next. [ applause ] the cdc last week announced that with a few exceptions, vaccinated americans don't need to wear masks indoors. and since they did that, there's been a sharp increase in google searches for fake vaccination cards. searches for fake covid vaccine
11:43 pm
cards are up more than 1,100%. and you can buy them. which is so gross. let's start calling these "vaccine avoiders" what they are, freeloaders. the only reason you're somewhat safe now is because other people got the shot. you're the person who heads for the bathroom when the check comes at the restaurant. [ laughter ] you're the lady who takes home the centerpieces from a wedding you weren't invited to. [ laughter ] you're the guy who brings five napkins to a potluck. that's you. [ laughter ] you don't think it's you, but it's you. on a brighter note legos, which caleb and chelsea, is the toy that will soon cover every surface of your home. laugh lego in the spirit of inclusiveness unveiled "everyone is awesome." its first-ever lgbtq-themed set. in honor of pride month which is next month. [ cheers and applause ] i mean, that should keep sean hannity's head smoking like a burnt meatloaf for another month or so. [ laughter ] of course, this means conservatives will most likely
11:44 pm
be boycotting lego, which is going to be especially tough for tucker carlson, since he is one. [ laughter and applause ] lego isn't the first company to do something like this. mattel did something like this a couple of years ago. and it may not seem like a big deal to have these kinds of toys. but having toys that kids can relate to is important. this is something i was discussing with one of our writers louis and he had some interesting thoughts on it. so here now to weigh in on the lego pride set is louis virtel. to virtel it like it is. louis? [ cheers and applause ] >> thank you for the opportunity, jimmy. and not just because i'm the only gay person you've ever met. [ laughter ] the lego pride set, i'm all for it. growing up and playing with legos, i didn't get much out of building a blue house or a yellow post office. but now you can go and build the gay hardware store and the gay fire station.
11:45 pm
[ laughter ] i think we may have made legos, what's the word? fun. [ laughter ] and by the way, you don't have to be gay to play with these. god knows, all i did growing up was play with overtly heterosexual action figures, and i still turned out like morrissey's bitchy nephew. [ laughter ] [ applause ] you might think, "well, who says the original legos weren't gay?" after all, they wear bright colors and their hair is detachable, so they're basically drag queens. [ laughter ] but it's nice not to have to pretend. because being gay, watch this, is real! it's people's lives. it's not something the writers of "will & grace" invented in 1998, which is what i thought for a while. [ laughter ] the gayest toy i had growing up was lite brite. [ laughter ] [ applause ] using just 50 pegs, i turned my bedroom into studio 54. [ laughter ]
11:46 pm
sorry, dad. but most of the time, i was stuck playing with unbearably boring straight toys. like ninja turtles. do i look like someone who wants to say the word nunchucks? i don't, i don't. or g.i. joe. do we have anything in common? he doesn't want to talk about the career of viola davis. [ laughter ] or like a game, like monopoly, where the only way to express your gayness was identifying as a thimble. [ laughter ] the closest i came to realizing i was gay as a kid was playing "tomb raider," seeing hot, busty, lara croft beat up a mummy, and thinking, "she's getting so much out of her anthropology degree." [ laughter ] i'd argue "representation" is as important in toys, things we
11:47 pm
experience, as it is in tv or movies. so enjoy your gay legos, kids! let this usher in the golden age of queer toys. hopefully as an adult, you'll be way less confused than me, someone who still has a crush on the diver from mouse trap. [ laughter and applause ] what a stud. i'm taking him home with me. thank you, jimmy. >> jimmy: thank you, louis. [ cheers and applause ] and good for legos. for including everyone. whereas duplo is still committed with the amish, quaker-style, puritanical hetero missionary sex. [ laughter ] you get it, right? >> guillermo: yeah, sure. >> jimmy: all right. hey, we've got a good show for you tonight.
11:48 pm
who's on the show tonight? oh. yvonne orji is here with us on the show, that's a person, not a sex thing. music from counting crows tonight. we'll be right back with ryan seacrest, so stick around!

[ cheers and applause ] then later, their first new music in seven years, it comes out tomorrow. it's called "butter miracle, suite one," the return of counting crows. [ cheers and applause ] next week, we've got new shows with emma stone, emily blunt,

[ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: you know what? it's good to see you. >> great to see you. >> jimmy: every time you're here, i feel pad that we asked you to come. >> no, don't feel bad at all. i was just taking a nap in the eevator, i'm well rested now. >> jimmy: good. you're on "live! with kelly and
11:54 pm
ryan." this morning in new york. >> yes, i was, i can't remember what we did or who we talked to but kelly was there. >> jimmy: that is true, you can't remember anything? >> i can't remember anything. i don't know if it's age or too many shows. >> jimmy: it's too many shows. no, it's not even too many shows. i can't remember anything, i only have the one show, and i can't remember anything. >> okay. >> jimmy: i'll go home, how was the show? i'll be like, i don't know. >> i usually say, i wasn't good. >> jimmy: so you are -- there possible, right?you, that is - if there's another ryan seacrest, you wouldn't tell us? >> i would never tell you that. but i like -- i love the notion of that, especially during this time of year, going back and forth every end of the week, i do "idol" on sunday, then take the redeye flight overnight back to see kelly in the morning. >> jimmy: yeah. >> this is a hectic time of year. >> jimmy: this is a hectic time. you know what? i have noticed from my own personal experience, i'm sure you feel the same way, because i've hosted with kelly a few times. she makes it very easy. >> oh, literally, she's the greatest live talent i've ever
11:55 pm
worked with. >> jimmy: i agree with you. >> she can handle everything with the wicked sense of humor she has. we know her very well. as a matter of fact, she was telling me -- her husband is mark consuelos, a lovely man. >> jimmy: oh, yeah, handsome too. >> so fit it's annoying. i tell him that, he knows that. she told me you coined the term narcolepsy, because he will fall asleep during everything. >> jimmy: oh, marcolepsy. >> yes. >> jimmy: he falls asleep when you're with him. >> did he do it when you were at dinner or something? >> jimmy: at his house, yeah, he fell asleep there in the room. >> ankle me told me that you have marcolepsy as well. >> jimmy: i have narcolepsy. it's named especially for him, the marcolepsy. [ laughter ] >> can you sleep easily? >> jimmy: i'm out like nothing. >> that's a blessing. it's a blessing because a lot of people genuinely suffer from it and it's a real problem for them in their lives.
11:56 pm
for me? i have the best-case scenario -- unless i'm driving and i fall asleep, that's not good. >> that is bad, yeah. >> jimmy: marc falls asleep, i'm glad to hear he falls asleep on you -- >> all the time. >> jimmy: i thought i was just boring. [ laughter ] i figured, oh, well. >> he does on it a regular basis, it's made us closer. >> you do get closer to someone when you watch them sleep. >> when they can fall asleep in front of you, it's a bond. >> jimmy: it's a level of comfort is what it is. so what do you do with your three to four minutes of free time each day? [ laughter ] >> well, i usually think about, you know, what i'm going to eat. and then i eat it in the second minute. then i digest it in the third minute. >> jimmy: do you eat fast? >> every morning i take two -- i take two lunch sat chets, a lunch satchel, a snack satchel. after the morning show, before i do something else, i'll have food at a desk. then in the afternoon, before i work out, i'll have a little bit more food. all in these little containers.
11:57 pm
usually labeled. "quinoa" and "quinoa." [ laughter ] that's the exciting life. >> jimmy: this is what we do for our children every day, put a little note in there, send them to school. >> i'm about the size of your kids. [ laughter ] so that's pretty good. >> jimmy: yeah, you don't have much time to do anything. yet i hear you're learning to speak italian, which seems like a big endeavor. >> it is a -- it is so frustrating to try and learn a language, at my age, i'm 46 years old. but i wanted to do it. i, like you, i'm a huge foodie, i love food. to me, any time i go to a restaurant, i want to meet the chef, i want a picture with the chef -- >> jimmy: grab everything they have. >> everything they have. what is your signature, let me taste it all. italian food is my favorite. i thought, let me try and learn italian. i started taking lessons on physical time when i'm traveling. >> jimmy: who teaches you? >> antonella. >> jimmy: she's in it la or the united states? >> she's in the united states. she's been in italy, she's italian. >> jimmy: you're pronouncing
11:58 pm
"italy" like that. >> that's the problem, when i go anywhere, i have this awful thing where i start to talk with an accent when i order the food. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: oh, yeah, yeah. >> that's bad, so let me try and learn the language.pso i know m. i know gato-gati. >> jimmy: all right. >> no sentences. >> jimmy: you're lucky you don't have kids, they'd be making so much fun of you right now. [ laughter ] >> i don't need kids, to be made fun of. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i thought about -- i've thought about learning to speak specifically italian. you know, i want to do that. i know i never will. i've thought about it. but then i also think how annoying that would be to my children, to hear me suddenly speaking with an accent. it's like when you turn on the local news and they're overenunciating things. "here in los we know it's los angeles, just
11:59 pm
say it. >> italian foo is scial to me, the olive tree is my favorite tree in the world -- >> jimmy: i never knew you had a favorite tree. [ laughter ] >> what's yours, jimmy? >> jimmy: i guess christmas? i don't know. [ laughter ] >> the deciduous tree? so i started planting olive trees. and i'm making olive oil as well. >> jimmy: you are really doing that, huh? >> yeah, i needed some hobbies. >> jimmy: how do you squeeze it? >> press it. so i'm -- >> jimmy: between your gluteus maximus? [ laughter ] while in the gym? >> that's how i get my exercise. the pit of an olive, right now. [ laughter ] [ applause ] so the goal is to try and apparently harvest, then get it into the bottle as fast as possible, to have that grassy flavor. >> jimmy: do you have a machine? >> i don't. you rent a machine. >> jimmy: you rent a machine. so you rent a machina. [ laughter ] >> yes,
12:00 am
>> jimmy: you have your own olive oil? >> i will. >> jimmy: that's got to be good. you can say, yeah, that's my olive oil, i made it in the yard. people will be like, oh my god, you're magical, ryan! >> obviously i'll say it in italian. >> jimmy: always say it in italian, fa get about it. why? you're not getting enough sex? [ laughter ] why hearn to speak italian and learn to make olive oil? >> olive oil and sex, i never thought of --. >> jimmy: i realized something, i realize that you -- i know what's going on. you're planning your exit from not just show business, the united states. you are going to buy a big plot, maybe you'll buy an italian province. [ laughter ] then you will live there. and you will now know how to speak italian. and you'll be making olive oil. and it will be the last we ever see of you. >> so this is my exit strategy? >> jimmy: this is your [ applause ] as they uger ] >> sounds romantic. >> jimmy: i'm not on to anything?

12:06 am
said, it's from 8:00 to 11:00. i did not know that. [ laughter ] used to i when i started out they'd check with you, say hey, are you available? just so you know, it's going to be a two-hour special, a three-hour extravaganza. now they just announce it. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: to most people, it's no difference, it goes from two hours to three hours. but you have to get on a plane and fly to new york after that. >> yes, one less hour i don't sleep overnight. >> jimmy: have you thought about trying to convince kelly to move here? >> i don't think i'd have to convince her, i think she really likes it out here. >> jimmy: what's the problem? >> gelman. >> jimmy: i think you could do the show without gelman. [ laughter ] >> i have to go back and see him monday. >> jimmy: i like gelman, but i think what we've earned in this era of zoom, gelman can stay home. [ laughter ] >> she loves it out here. she sends her love to you. >> jimmy: i was thinking about simon cowell and what the show used to be like, compared to
12:07 am
what it is like now. and i was wondering, think any of that would fly now? >> it is a different time. >> jimmy: he would tear through the contestants. >> and people loved it. >> jimmy: i'll be honest, i enjoyed it thoroughly. but now it seems like it's so -- >> you were there, you were doing it, what would you be like? >> jimmy: if i was doing it? >> if you were judging. >> jimmy: what i would be like, inside i would want to do what simon did. >> right. >> jimmy: but instead i would be lionel richie, i guess. [ laughter ] it is my goal to be lionel richie. >> and mine. the guy, lionel richie is the greatest individual walking this planet. the man wakes up every day excited to be himself. [ cheers and applause ] he's the nicest guy. >> jimmy: why do you say he wakes up excited to be himself? >> i'll tell you exactly why. i'm not making this up. he'll tell you the same story. so i said to lionel, every day you're smiling, happy to be
12:08 am
here, you've got the most energy ofny o i sa y're ryan? tak morning. put the towel around myself. get out of the shower. i look in the mirror. and i say, you're lionel richie. [ laughter ] [ applause ] and the rest of the day, i'm lionel richie. and that's how he does it every day. >> jimmy: wow. >> that's exactly what he does, morning routine. >> jimmy: i would imagine him doing that without the towel. [ laughter ] >> yeah. i don't know how his day would go after that. but he is just the greatest. >> jimmy: he is the greatest. i love him. you know, actually, i asked him if he's ever made love to his own music. and he said he couldn't remember. and then i asked luke bryan what he thought. he said, "oh, he's definitely done that." i don't know, he just feels -- do you believe that he -- >> who hasn't done that? so yes, i believe -- >> jimmy: i've never done it, made love to my own music? >> "penny lover"? >> jimmy: oh, to lionel's music?
12:09 am
i don't think i'd ever do that. [ laughter and applause ] it's hard for me to -- the music, the begging, the whining. [ laughter ] >> too much going on, i understand, you need a focus. >> jimmy: you posted on instagram. >> oh, wow. >> jimmy: it's you as a kid. >> yes. >> jimmy: glasses. >> this explained a lot of issues. >> jimmy: what's going on here? conducting some kind of ritual sacrifice? what's going on? >> so if you see there, there's a coleman logo. and i asked for christmas one year, going through the service merchandise catalog which we got in atlanta. >> jimmy: oh, service merchandise. >> do you remember that? >> jimmy: yeah, yes. i haven't heard those words in forever. >> i don't think it's around. you go there the catalog, n-1264fn, that was the code for the grill and lantern. i got it, had never been camping. i was excited, my first camping trip with my dad. >> jimmy: the little propane tank. >> yeah. >> jimmy: you know this is a serious trip, if you widen out, you can see you did laundry.
12:10 am
[ laughter ] that's when you know you're really in it. >> i didn't even notice. is that tie dye? >> jimmy: i don't know what that is, a bathing suit? >> very on trend. >> jimmy: maybe your dad was naked when he tookt that point. >> jimmy: are you a camper now? >> no. >> jimmy: you are not. >> shocking, i know. [ laughter ] i went camping again a few years later with my high school buddies and i didn't do that, i was on a different eating regimen as you might see. >> jimmy: even in high school, okay. >> and so i went to the store and i bought a can of smoked oysters. you know, like a sardine can, you peel it back, put a toothpick in, smoked oysters, eat them. >> jimmy: in high school you're eating that? wow. >> it was a bargain, nobody wanted them. >> jimmy: this explains why you make your own olive oil. [ laughter ] >> so after i had them that night, all the guys doing their burgers and barbecue and all that stuff. i dumped the oil out in front of the tent. went to sleep. i heard a bunch of ruckus. i thought the guys were playing
12:11 am
cards. it was raccoons and other animai ok it a animals? >> it attracted animals, yes, different four-legged animals. many of which were life-threatening. [ laughter ] so that was the last time i made to it the appalachian mountains. >> jimmy: you're better off doing what you're doing. it's very good to see you, great to see you. >> jimmy: give kelly my best, give lionel and katy and luke and everyone you work with my best. by the way, do you feel responsible for caitlyn jenner? >> coming up next here on "jimmy kimmel live" -- why are you pointing a finger at me? >> jimmy: i don't know. >> i'm happy for all of them! >> jimmy: will you vote for caitlyn jenner? >> i -- which state? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: in california. >> i live in new york. >> jimmy: all right, that's a good answer. the season finale of "american idol," live sunday, 8:00 even, 5:00 pacific on abc. ryan seacrest, everybody! we'll be back with yvonne orji.

[ laughter ] like calling dibs. >> jimmy: you get to take things from each other's tv apartments? it seems like you get the stuff in your tv apartment, and that's it. >> jimmy why you trying to block my blessings? [ laughter ] let me have it. ilsa has nice stuff too. >> jimmy: this is quite a title, a really good title, "bamboozled
12:19 am
by jesus." i wonder if it will be in the christian section? or the bamboozled section? or the comedy section? where will it be listed? >> i think barnes & noble is ked as well. i don't know, it will be in the christian/memoir, i don't know. >> jimmy: barnes says christian, noble says bamboozled section. >> whateve section gets the most people to buy it. >> jimmy: this is a story about your life, your family. you brought me food today. >> i did. >> jimmy: i'm not exaggerating, i had it before the show, it is one of the most delicious things i've ever eaten in my life. >> i brought jimmy nigerian jela fries. >> jimmy: a little bit spicy and very tasty, very good, thank you very much. >> verron's kitchen here in l.a. it's the same thing i brought oprah. you're in the same test bucket. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i like any connection
12:20 am
i have to oprah. did oprah love it too? >> she was -- okay. so when we pitched the show -- she does love jela fries but she wasn't there, she was telecasted into our meeting. she was upset, like you brought me food? i don't know why, that was my oprah impression. [ laughter ] sorry. you brought me food? like david was there, david on my show. "sorry, oprah, i'm taking it home to eat." >> jimmy: oh, no, david can't take oprah's food for himself, a lightning bolt could hit him. >> it did, it did. >> jimmy: very solid. >> we still made it. >> jimmy: you write about your family and your mom. how old were you when you guys came here to the united states? >> 6 years old. >> jimmy: 6 years old? your mother never lets you forget that? >> she never does. her favorite thing to say was, "that's not why i came to this country."
12:21 am
like if i got a "b" on my report card, "a b, no, no, that is not the reason i came to america." what was the reason, mom? i'm doing my best, i hate chemistry. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: you also said that, and correct me if i have this wrong, i don't want to get it wrong. you said nigeriaens are the rudest people in the world? >> we are the rudest people you will ever, ever meet. i can say that because i'm one of them. >> jimmy: uh-huh? >> i'm not rude, but like, we just will dismantle your soul. [ laughter ] jimmy, you have not lived until a nigerian calls you "a foolish goat." [ laughter ] >> jimmy: a foolish goat? >> why are you being compared to this? "look at you, you imbecile." >> jimmy: these are people who like you? >> these are people who like you. even when we give compliments, "ah, jimmy, your tie, it's okay, you know, it's okay." [ laughter ] that really means, "i really want your tie, tell me where you got it from."
12:22 am
>> jimmy: do you think that's why you got into show business? [ laughter ] some kind of affirmation? >> yes, because there's nothing an exec can say to me worse than what my family's said to me. oh, i'm never going to make isn't it thank you so much for believing in me! [ laughter ] >> jimmy: has your family, mom, read the book? >> they have not. my sister-in-law has, to which she's like, "i'm learning so much about your family." >> jimmy: oh, yeah, right. >> girl, you stay. you're it. >> jimmy: yeah, you don't want to run your sister-in-law off. >> no. but like my mom, though, has been supporting me through whatsapp so she's like forwarded the preorder link to all the aunts and uncles. >> jimmy: oh, she has. >> which is great. by the way, at first i was like, what is she cog? why did i getting these random messages? oh, they preordered? keep at it, mom, turn it up, yes, pimp me out. >> jimmy: the title i think would give people the impression that you're kind of flip about christianity, but you're not, you're a religious person. >> yeah. >> jimmy: you are saving your
12:23 am
virginity for marriage, which is unusual. >> where is he? hurry up! hey, hey! wherever you are, hurry, okay? please. call me. >> jimmy: especially when your last name is "orji." [ laughter ] >> i mean -- god has a sense of humor, i will say that. >> jimmy: it seems so. >> yeah. this is how he tricked me into the life of my dreams. >> jimmy: can i ask you a serious question? when you say hurry up, we're joking, but do you find it becomes more difficult as the years go by? or does it get less difficult as the years go by? >> i mean, i don't know. because this is the last year. [ laughter ] wherever you are? hurry! >> jimmy: we're talking calendar year? >> december 2nd is my deadline. >> jimmy: december 2nd? you're not even giving it the whole year? >> we've been in covid for a long time, those are dog years, okay? >> jimmy: we'll find somebody good for you. not as good as jesus. >> yeah. >> jimmy: you compare jesus to ashton cuffer in the book. >> i do. >> jimmy: how do they relate to
12:24 am
each other? >> i talk about how these the prankster. ashton had "punk'd." jesus, sometimes he punks you. but when the white van comes out, it's for good. you get the last laugh. >> jimmy: that guy with the beard and the long hair and the white van? that isn't jesus. [ laughter ] be careful, don't get in it with him. >> no. jesus, dreadlocks, i don't know, i have no idea. no, because it's kind of the same kind of sentiment. like, he tells you to do something, you're like, fam, this is not it. also, that's how i talk about jesus. fam what are we doing, son? >> jimmy: i feel that's the kind of relationship jesus would want to have, right? >> it's the only one i know. he likes dmx, rest in peace. i like dmx. it works, okay? [ laughter ] there's a lot of pop culture as the bible.blical references in - what other book are you going to get cardi b, nate dogg, and you know, luke 124? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: not that many of them.
