one final nighttime read, we picked something for you. a look at these stunning orange and gray from wildfire smoke. we have seen this before but east coast landmarks look apocalyptic today with unhealthy air alerts and it is still the talk of the internet. that story is one of the top things people are put -- clicking on on our website. thank you for watching tonight. dan: for all of us, we appreciate your time. ama: have a great night. >> lou: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live!" tonight -- jennifer lopez. chris perfetti. and music from fall out boy. with cleto and the cletones. and now, jimmy kimmel! [cheers and applause]

♪ ♪ >> jimmy: hi, there. thank you, thank you. hi, everybody, how you doing? i'm jimmy, i am the host. thank you for watching, thank you for coming. [cheers and applause] you picked a great night to be here. jennifer lopez is with us. [cheers and applause] a lot of enthusiasm. here's how it works when jennifer lopez comes to our show. i pull up in the parking lot, there's a hundred photographers, all ready. i get out of the car, they do this -- [laughter] >> oh, what time does j. lo get here?" jenny shut down the whole block. hollywood boulevard is closed for the premiere of her new movie "shotgun wedding" across the street. [cheers and applause] i don't know why this section of the audience is still standing. sit down, for god's sake.

at church they tell you to sit down, here you're just supposed to do it. [laughter] president biden is heading to california tomorrow to visit the areas that were affected by the -- >> guillermo: here, jimmy. >> jimmy: what is this? >> guillermo: for you. >> jimmy: oh, i have some breaking news. oh, some sad breaking news. the oldest person in the world, french nun since andre, has died. sister andre was 118 years old. and she will be missed. that's very sad. but congratulations to the world's new oldest person, a winemaker from argentina named manuel paso, 116. he turns 117 next week. >> guillermo: this is for you too, one more. >> jimmy: oh, wow, i'm getting more sad news. argentinian winemaker manuel paso has just died peacefully this his sleep shy of his 117th birthday. he lived and long and meaning of life. he was loved by so many. congratulations to edith cornwall of quebec, 115 years

young, full of life. we offer congratulations -- >> guillermo: this is for you too. >> jimmy: wait, what is this? >> guillermo: it's the drawing of a turkey. you know, i forgot to give to it you for thanksgiving. [laughter] >> jimmy: oh, okay. >> guillermo: yeah. >> jimmy: thank you very much. maybe after the show would have been better. >> guillermo: oh, okay. can i hug j. lo? >> jimmy: get back to your spot. [laughter] leave j. lo alone. [cheers and applause] in washington, it's committee assignment week in the house of representatives. the focus has been on a colorful new member named george santos. george santos, despite being exposed as a fraud -- this guy has an almost-comical list of lies to his name -- was assigned to not one but two committees. new speaker kevin mccarthy put him on the science committee and the space & technology committee, which makes sense because he's the only congressman who found a cure for cancer, and successfully manned

a mission to mars. all this year alone. george's former roommate was on cnn last night. it's always a bad sign when your former roommate is on cnn. never a positive. where he alleged that his old pal was, on top of everything else, a scarf thief. >> santos stole something from you? >> yes, many times. i notices a burberry shirt and scarf were missing. my best friend, danielle, had given it to me on the anniversary of my grandfather's passing. it was more of a sentimental value. >> i understand he was wearing something he took from you at a pre-january 6th rally in washington? is that the scarf? >> he has the audacity, yes. >> wait a minute, lee he's wearing the scarf? >> a stolen scarf to a steal the election rally. >> jimmy: oh, hey, what's the problem? stealing was the theme of the rally. [laughter] of course the burberry bandit is on the loose! [applause] and while pinching your buddy's

scarf might not be a capital offense, raising money for and then keeping money from a gofundme intended for a sick dog -- well, that's a ticket straight to hell. >> what was he having gofundme's for back then? >> they had a pet charity, friends of pets united. it was supposedly to help out with sick animals, things like that. there's actually just an article released about how he conned a homeless military vet out of $3,000 for his service dog. >> jimmy: his roommate says he conned a homeless veteran out o service dog, which had to be put to sleep. you check every box with that one, that's for sure. he's been accused of stealing from a dog. he's literally a scooby doo villain at this point. [laughter] and he's in congress. the roommate also said santos told him he used a jewish sounding name -- zebrowski -- for the gofundme, because he

thought it would encourage jewish people to donate more. and it turns out george santos may not even be his real name. at various times, the congressman has gone by the names george santos, anthony devolder, anthony zebrowski, ll cool g, supreme court justice george bader ginsberg, george costantos, melania, malala, madonna, and king george batman santos-clooney. [laughter] he's also, according to a reporter who works for nbc, he was also a drag queen in brazil in the red there who went by the name kitara ravache. i don't know what his real name is, all i know is he's beautiful, and he's going to make a pretty president of the united states. meanwhile, donald trump workshopped some new material today on his imaginary platform, truth social, where he's got a new excuse for why he had 15 boxes of secret documents laying around at mar-a-lago. "the fake news media & crooked democrats, that's been proven, keep saying i had a large number of documents in order to make the biden classified docs look

less significant. when i was in the oval office, or elsewhere and papers were distributed to groups of people & me, they would often be in a striped paper folder with classified or confidential or or another word on them. when the session was over, they would collect the papers but no hundreds of them. i think that's a confession, by the way. "remember, these were just ordinary, inexpensive folders with various words printed on them, but they were a cool keepsake." oh. why didn't you say that in the first place? if we'd known they were a cool keepsake, i'm sure hiding them in a bucket of chicken would have been fine! [laughter] i'm sure that will hole up in court no problem. "your honor, it's not a felony, it's scrapbooking." then he wrote -- "perhaps the gestapo took some of these empty folders when they raided mar-a-lago and counted them as a document, which they are not. it's also possible that trump-hating marxist thugs in charge will 'plant' documents while they're in possession of the material. as president, and based on the

presidential records act and socks case, i did nothing wrong, joe did." [laughter] this is how my 5-year-old complains, "i did nothing wrong, jane did!" [laughter] can't he ever just post something like "happy national french toast day"? trump will be in fayetteville, north carolina, this weekend, hairlining a memorial event to celebrate the life of one of his bigliest supporters who recently passed away. >> please join us on saturday january 21st, in fayetteville, north carolina, she loved that state and so do i. as we celebrate the life of diamond. she lived it in a credible way, and we're going to have a wonderful celebration and ceremony. all of diamond's families and silk, we love silk. her sister, she loved her sister so much, and they loved each other. and they really loved the world. they were with me from the beginning, and they never wavered. so we're going to celebrate

silk. we'll be there, i'll be there, we're going to celebrate the life of diamond. [laughter] >> jimmy: what i wouldn't give to be at that memorial service. how long you think he'll talk about diamond before he starts talking about donald trump? i say four minutes of how much diamond loved him followed by 85 minutes of how much he loves himself. [laughter] twitter, elon musk is trying to recoup some of his massive losses he's incurred by selling office supplies. for real. they're holding an auction, selling all their stuff. today is the last day to bid on high-quality items from twitter headquarters. like this desk with a twitter employee sleeping under it. you could get a pool table with a twitter employee sleeping on it. there's a special crying table for sale. [laughter] there's a six-foot statue of the twitter bird. and this 40-inch monitor. elon i think took this picture himself, if you zoom in -- [laughter]

>> jimmy: yeah, he's selling his clothes too. are we sure elon musk is a genius? because he seems to have turned twitter into radio shack. [laughter] speaking of random items, there's a thread on reddit called "what is this thing?" it's great. people post photos of weird items they find, then strangers help solve the mystery what was they are. it's fun, so we decided to make it a game. we took real photos from reddit and went out onto hollywood boulevard to see if strangers walking by could help identify them. it's time to play "what is this thing?" all right. take a good look. try to figure out what it is. now we'll find out what people on the street think. >> what is this thing? >> put it in the ground, grab the weed. >> a weed plucker? >> it's for shishkabobs. >> a dildo, some type of dildo, it could be. >> looks like a knife with a tail on it.

there's some kind of release device here. because i can see it coming down, kind of like a pair of vice grips. clamp it together, releases, lets it pop. it takes the inner layer of the fruit, opens it up, breaks it down so you can pull it out, possibly pour it into something, make a margarita with it or something. you've got to admit, coconut, that's a solid shell on them. more people die from that than shark attacks. other countries, they fall asleep at the bottom of a coconut tree, coconut hits them in the head, game over. >> to corral you into an answer here, it's a device to bore a hole into a coconut to get the milk out? something like that? >> i'm thinking something like that. >> jimmy: oh, all right. [laughter] guy has a heck of an imagination. [applause] let's see if one of his 10 answers is right. is it a weed plucker, a shishkabob skewer, a dildo, a coconut milk extractor? what do you think? let's find out what it is. >> it's a cranial perforator for draining fluid from a baby's

head. >> oh, that is so much worse than i expected. [laughter] >> jimmy: not if you're a baby with a head full of fluid, it isn't. what is this item? what is this thing? >> it's like a container for cyanide pills for spies. >> some kind of musical instrument? >> a musical instrument? >> i'm going to go with a toy of some sort. like video game but old. >> an old video game. what is this thing? >> that rope is interesting. because it looks like you'd put the end of the lanyard through the loop then pull it. see, i looked at it -- i see these screws, i'm thinking it's screwed into a piece of wood. it very well may not be. but when you pick it up, it's going to invert itself. you're going to get a reverse angle out of it. >> what is it? what would you use it for? what is this thing? >> honestly, there's probably 10, 20 different ways of doing it probably easier. maybe grabs another box. then you could take this blue

box here that's hinged, fold it up, put it in your pocket or move on to the next one. >> you think it's a box holder? [laughter] >> jimmy: don't sit next to mike on the plane, i guess. what do you think, is it a spy cyanide pill case, musical instrument, old video game, or box holder? all right, let's find out what the answer is. >> this is a razor blade sharpener. >> well, i just -- i think, you know -- again, you look at something in five different ways, you get five different answers. >> jimmy: maybe even ten sometimes. [laughter] mike is good. let's see one more. what is this thing? let's go back to the street. >> what this is thing? >> is it a laser? >> use it to draw straight lines with? >> some kind of optometrist device? >> you grab this thing, it's got a handle on it, looks like some magnets with a strap. i'm estimating that thing goes on a wall. you look pat the way all they are. that baby's going to go on a wall.

grab that, put on it, boom, now it's on. the problem is, that thing's aiming towards the ground, what good is that? some kind of detection device. what would you use it for? could it shoot something? i don't know, why would you want to shoot something? i see -- looks like something takes a little impact action shack absorbing going on. or is that truly a handle to grab ahold it? suction cup to it the window? >> mike, come on. >> this is a counterweight, a battery pack in the back. they spin this thing around. count the traffic, the foot traffic coming in and out of your store. beam it across the street here, you'd never know it. how fast are cars going by? could be combination radar -- >> radar detector? >> yeah, radar detector. >> jimmy: all right. is it a laser, a straight-line drafting tool, optometry device, or detection device/gun/foot traffic counter/radar detector? >> would you like to know what it is? >> yes. >> that's an automatic dildo machine, mike. >> that's --

[laughter] automatic dildo machine? >> all right, look, you have a mechanical mind. how does that operate? >> well. that baby -- that -- >> oh, good, walk us through it. >> that baby's going to be vibrating around in there. >> yeah. >> and -- yeah. [laughter] [applause] >> jimmy: all right, i think we need to sit mike down and give him the talk. thank you, mike. that's the educational part of our show tonight. thanks for playing "what is this thing?"

if you're taking an antidepressant but you're still masking your depression you could be experiencing a partial response to your antidepressant. partial response happens when your antidepressant alone isn't enough. let's try adding rexulti®. when added to an antidepressant, rexulti® was proven to reduce depression symptoms 62% more than the antidepressant alone. so you can build on your progress. rexulti® can cause serious side effects. elderly dementia patients have increased risk of death or stroke. antidepressants may increase suicidal thoughts and actions and worsen depression in children and young adults. report fever, stiff muscles, and confusion, which can be life-threatening, or uncontrolled muscle movements, which may be permanent. increased cholesterol; weight gain; high blood sugar; low white blood cells; unusual urges; dizziness on standing; falls; seizures; trouble swallowing, or sleepiness may occur. when depression sets you back, keep moving forward. ask your doctor about adding rexulti® to your antidepressant.

the critics' choice award.

[applause] it's totally wild. there's nobody i'd rather lose to than henry winkler. >> jimmy: he's the nicest guy, and he's a huge fan of your show too. >> oh, man. i feel that.

he said that to me a few times. >> jimmy: okay, good. >> right after he won the critics' choice award, he came up to our table and he squeezed my face. he's just a really lovely, generous person. i have a slight hunch he's kind of fishing for his next job. not to toot our own horn. [laughter] people kind of want to be on our show now. and he's a smart guy. you know, he's a consummate businessman, professional. he's been doing this awhile. so i think he -- >> jimmy: you're so jaded already. >> he can only go for so long. >> jimmy: you're so jaded already. there's no way henry winkler is being insincere with you. you've been in brooklyn too long, that's the problem. >> yeah. >> jimmy: does your family still live in brooklyn? >> no, my people are way upstate near canada. i have like a six-hour radius rule.

tale of friendship. it's just another actor and myself. and it tracks these two guys over the course of lebron james' career. and it's kind of where their friendship is over 12 years. so you see kind of every facet of a friendship you can. you see them hurt each other, you see them love each other, you see them betray each other. and -- >> jimmy: all within the framework of lebron james' career? >> yes. it mimics the four quarters of a basketball game. and -- and yeah, you see the day that they meet, and 12 years later. >> jimmy: is lebron involved in this at all? does he know about this? is he producing this? >> i don't know, he probably does now. [laughter] thanks a lot. no, but -- i think it's, you know -- i've spent the last ten years, you know, having the real privilege to do incredible plays on and off broadway in new york. that's how i got my start.

that is my one true love. and this play, "king james," is really at the top of that list. it's an impeccable new play. and i hope lebron will see it, i hope everybody will see it. >> jimmy: you've got to invite lebron to come see it for sure. >> okay.
