and grace van patten. >> have a great night >> lou: from hollywood, it's “jimmy kimmel live.” tonight -- keegan-michael key, grace van patten, and music from khalid.

with cleto and the cletones. and now, jimmy kimmel. ♪ [ cheering ] >> jimmy: hello. hi, everybody. i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. it sure is hot out. i appreciate you braving the intense l.a. heat to join us here in hollywood. and while i have your attention, let's just take a minute to give thanks to whoever it was who invented air conditioning. i mean, man, oh, man, we should be thanking god for that person every day. the light bulb we can live without. we all know thomas edison. we don't know who did this. it was 119 degrees in the valley over the weekend. it's september. it is so hot.

when i went outside to pee on matt damon's star this morning, it turned to steam. it evaporated. there have been power outages. you know, madame tussaud's wax museum is right across the street from us. and i am a little worried about my wax figure. they have a wax figure of me over there. you know, these wax figures are made of wax. to i sent guillermo to run across the street to check it out. is he there yet? hey, guillermo. how is it? is my figure ok? >> guillermo: yeah. it looks pretty good. >> looks pretty good. >> guillermo: your hair looks great. >> jimmy: thanks, guillermo. you want to get a picture with jimmy kimmel? >> jimmy: strange that the other statues didn't melt at all. by the way, a special welcome to those of you joining us after monday night football tonight. earn aaron rodgers tonight

strapped on his tin foil helmet for another mad cap season. san francisco 49ers hosted the new york jets. this year, players have the option to wear protective helmet bumpers. next to nobody did wear them, because this is what they look like. jabrill peppers of the patriots and josh wily from the titans are two of the only smart players in all of football. they were willing to look ridiculous. they were willing to look like rick moranis in "spaceballs" in order to protect their brains. they do need to come up with a better design than this. one of the reasons that players have been unwilling to wear them is because when your head tilts backwards, which it sometimes does, a piece of candy pops out your neck. you know a sport is dangerous when even the helmets need helmets. what a week this is for abc. tonight, we had monday night football. the debate is on abc tomorrow. this is a rare week when our network has, what did we used to call them? viewers. when we have viewers.

tomorrow in philadelphia, kamala harris versus donald trump. the candidates will field questions on all the major issues. the economy. immigration. electrocution. sharks. everything we care about. there's a lot riding on this. if kamala doesn't do well, come january, our national bird might be the kentucky fried chicken. a lot of democrats were freaking out about the “new york times” poll that came out yesterday showing trump up by one percent nationally going into the debate. the trump people were celebrating, which is surprising, from the guy who said the failing @nytimes has been wrong about me from the very beginning. said i would lose the primaries, then the general election. fake news. i guess the news at "the new york times" is only occasionally fake. i don't know why we get so worked up about this stuff. there is nothing scientific about these polls. hillary clinton was supposed to win in a landslide. according to these polls. has anyone you know ever taken one of these polls? no.

has anyone in the audience ever taken one of these polls? no. you know why? they call you on the phone. the “new york times” should say “donald trump has a one percent lead among lunatics who answer unknown calls on their phones!” [ applause ] both candidates are preparing for the debate in their own way. they say harris has been doing “highly choreographed” rehearsals “with a stage and replica tv lighting and an adviser in full lee strasberg method-acting mode” playing the part of trump. i don't know, is she trying to win an election or a tony award? how could you possibly prepare to debate donald trump? this is a man who if he doesn't like the direction a hurricane is going, he just draws a new hurricane. you can't debate that. it's like if they tried to fly bruce willis up to that asteroid to reason with it. instead of blow it up. kamala is a two and a half to one favorite to “win” the debate, whatever that means. [ cheering ] you can actually bet on it. you can bet on all sorts of

things for this debate. like the super bowl. they're called “prop bets.” you can bet on the color of trump's tie. red is the big favorite. if you bet $1200 on red, you can win $100. blue, you can bet a hundred to $550. silver or grey, goes at 14 to 1. and if he wears a bow tie, you can win a hundred to one. you know he's gonna bet all his truth social stock on bowtie and show up looking like an obese orville redenbacher. right? you can also bet on whether trump will say the words comrade kamala, tampon tim. witch-hunt. and whether or not they will shake hands. no is the favorite. i would go heavy on no. those two are not gonna shake hands. if i was kamala, i'd give him a little pinch on the cheek. when i came in. trump, of course, is claiming that the debate is rigged against him. even though it hasn't happened yet. over the weekend, trump announced that no “boxes or artificial lifts” will be allowed for kamala, who is five

foot four to stand on. because he says, “it would be a form of cheating and the democrats cheat enough.” that's right. cheating is only allowed when it comes to wives, taxes, and every round of golf he's ever played. [ cheering and applause ] otherwise -- trump, as you know, is a very focused individual. yesterday, as he prepared for the debate, he posted "happy birthday, mary" as if the virgin mary is on truth social. and he followed that with this tiny thumbs-up. for hulk hogan beer. real american beer. “hulk hogan is doing a beer, and if he's doing it, it must be good. great looking can and logo. give it a try. djt.” so presidential. trump was in wisconsin on saturday where he once again got himself all worked up over the fact that tim walz called him weird. >> jd is solid. i'm solid.

they said this was just a sound bite. they gave it to all the news, fake news. they're weird. no, he is weird. he is really weird. this guy, can you imagine? i'm weird. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i mean, come on, since when is a guy who throws ketchup and listens to phantom of the opera on repeat over and over again weird? it's not weird. and then donnie dum dum noticed something in the sky and steered the conversation to his new friend elon musk. >> oh, there is a rocket. look, a rocket is flying. it's elon. boeing had a little hard time, as you heard. so leon is going to send up a rocket. he looks forward to it. that's all he thinks about is things like that. >> jimmy: is that what leon is thinking about? sorry, elon, you're leon now. anagrampa has spoken. year leon from here on. meanwhile, down south, trump's future daughter-in-law kimberly guilfoyle was wowing the crowd at the florida republican party victory dinner.

>> and act 3 is "the art of the comeback." >> jimmy: the art of the what? >> the art of the comeback. >> jimmy: oh, the art of the comebock. okay. these people, they hate drag queen story hour. they have no problem with that. some of the lies they've been spreading lately -- [ applause ] some of these lies they're using to scare people are so silly, i have a hard time believing even the hard-core trump fans even believe them. trump has been hammering this crowd-pleaser a lot lately. the idea that democrats are randomly chopping off your children's private parts. >> kamala supports being able to take minor children and perform sex change operation. take them away from their parents, perform sex change

operation and send them back home. can you imagine you're a parent and your son leaves the house, and you say jimmy, i love you so much, go have a good day at school. >> jimmy: oh, well, that's very sweet. thank you. [ applause ] i mean, my name's not jimmy anymore. it's tamara, but i will. >> jimmy, i love you so much, go have a day in school. >> jimmy: i'm going to be using that clip a lot. i'm going tell you right now. [ applause ] you're going to -- remember this, because you're going to be seeing it frequently. trump has also been floating a new policy idea, finally. he says he wants to modify the 25th amendment so you can remove a vice president if that vice president covers up the fact that the president is incapacitated or if the vice president is caught in the oval office dry humping the couch. this, of course, is a change in direction for trump, who previously tried to remove his own vice president via noose.

and then he says he isn't weird. maybe the weirdest story about trump this month involves me. “rolling stone” published a story today. the topic was what could happen if trump wins, and one of the things is this. they wrote, there's no nemesis too small. the tally even includes late-night comics who've pissed him off. as president, trump briefly attempted to get justice officials to twist campaign finance laws and the federal equal-time rule to declare that anti-trump material broadcast by “saturday night live,” jimmy kimmel, stephen colbert and others was somehow illegal. during his 2024 campaign, which is now, according to a source with direct knowledge, trump has raised this topic again, venting about the need to punish late night comedians for giving “illegal” campaign contributions to the democratic party in the form of jokes and on-air satire. [ booing ] >> jimmy: i'm glad it's funny to

you. he wants to lock up the late night hosts. hey, what happened to this by the way? >> jimmy, i love you so much. [ cheering ] >> jimmy: how would that work for jon stewart, would he only go to jail on mondays? there's a lot to figure out. i'm now imagining me and all the other late night hosts in prison together like the mobsters in "goodfellas." i'll be stirring the sauce, colbert will be slicing the garlic with a razor blade. guillermo, you're probably going in too. bring some sausage, because we're going to have some time on our hands. >> guillermo: i will bring anything for you. >> jimmy: melania was on the campaign trail with her husband this weekend. just kidding, we haven't seen her for weeks. but she does have a new book coming out, a memoir, and just in case you think melania doesn't care about the little think again. >> the 2020 election results

changed our lives forever. it impacted our quality of life, cost of food, gasoline. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: let me ask you a question. when was the last time you think melania pumped gasoline? 1990 never made? melania's book comes out october 8th. it is number two on amazon on the best-seller list, whereas the new book trump released last week is number 269. it's a good thing they have a rock solid relationship, because a lot of couples, this is the sort of thing that could result in tumult, you know. there has been so much focus on the election. i thought it would be nice to shine a line on nonpolitical journalism, courtesy of the fox 10 news team out of mobile, alabama, who are winners of tonight's award for “excellence in reporting.” >> a new bacon product might hit the sweet spot. >> hormel is partners with

cinnamon toast cu -- [ laughter ] >> the family flavor is -- [ laughter ] -- i won't be able to make it. >> yeah, i don't think we're going to be trying any of that. >> jimmy: come on. don't be so uptight. a funny way to get fired. >> jimmy: in cupertino today, apple unveiled the new iphone 16. it is made from “aerospace grade” aluminum, it is 30 percent faster than the last iphone. it has an “enhanced” package of ai features called “apple intelligence” and it is bigger than last year's model by 0.2 inches. apple also announced that iphone users are no longer allowed to be friends with people who have those green text bubbles. probably the biggest difference between this year's announcement and what they've done in previous years was apple's

[ applause ] >> now, as you've all known for more than 17 years, apple is no stranger to upending the industry. so many times we've introduced a revolutionary new product that has changed the game. this is not one of those times. this september, the new iphone is just your old iphone. we ran the numbers and decided your old iphone is just fine. the camera works great, has plenty of megapixels and [ bleep ]. you don't need to spend a thousand dollars on the iphone pro max pro whatever it's called. the old has whatever you need to play fruit ninja and watch porno. >> porno, porno, porno! >> jimmy: all right. we have a good show tonight. grace van patten is here. we've got music from khalid. and we'll be right back with

keegan-michael key. so stick around. ♪

[ cheering and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: how are you? >> there we go. >> jimmy: you seem happier than usual. >> i'm happier than usual. >> jimmy: not that you aren't usually happy. >> yes. >> jimmy: you do seem like a positive person in general. >> i do what i can to be as positive and keep a smile on my face and other people's faces as much as i can. but i am happier today than usual, because after a nail-biter in last night's game,

my detroit lions were victorious! [ cheering ] in their scintillating overtime lynn over the los angeles rams. so yes. >> jimmy: that's the funny thing about living in l.a. a lot of towns, if your team back in detroit beat the home team, you would get booed. here, no one cares. >> right! [ laughter ] >> it is ironic, though, because of course matt stafford, who is the quarterback for the rams, used to be our quarterback in detroit. it's always bittersweet for me when i see him lose, because he gave us such wonderful times in detroit. >> jimmy: and yet you were so happy last night. >> a couple detroiters there, yeah. >> jimmy: you were so happy yesterday to see him lose, as evidenced by this video that you posted. >> should never, ever get out of the pocket. he almost didn't make that first stop. don't run, jared!

god in heaven. oh, god. >> keegan, what are you doing? >> he [ bleep ] ran! he should never. [ laughter ] >> yes. >> jimmy: is this -- [ applause ] >> i mean, i've got pace myself. >> jimmy: yeah. >> because that's the first game. >> jimmy: that's the first game. >> that's the first game, and that was a first down. i had to walk out of the room on a first down. >> jimmy: is that what you're like during every game? >> you know, i've tried to be to be quite honest with you, i have mellowed out. >> jimmy: really? >> i have mellowed out. it's just detroit we're actually with the fact that we're good now, and the fact that we're actually playing fantastic solid football, if the stake -- there is actual stakes. there is actual stakes. >> jimmy: you're saying this there is a lot pent up bubbling inside you.

>> it was literally, for me, it's been 30 years of -- >> jimmy: right. >> well that figures. why don't you just hand them the ball. just hand them the ball. >> jimmy: you the kind of person who will bet before the season starts on the lions to win the super bowl? >> i -- i -- i am doing it this year. this year i am betting for the lions to go to the super bowl. every week last year i thought to myself, this is going to be too much. we can't win this game. and then they win the game. they're never -- okay, this is a really good opponent. we're going find a way to screw it up. and they wouldn't screw it up and win. it was me believing a little bit more every single game. but this season, most of our players are back. and so there is going to be this continuity. and i have a lot of confidence. >> jimmy: you know you just cursed the team. >> absolutely. did i say -- i did say i picked them, didn't i? i thought if i didn't actually say it, then it would be okay. >> jimmy: what do you think the

odds are? i looked them up before this interview. >> i'm really bad at math. that's why i'm an actor. >> jimmy: what would you guess if you had to guess? >> i guess what do i say. >> jimmy: to win the super bowl. >> to win the super bowl, i think they have -- given that the first week has happened, i think they have right now like a 35% chance of winning the super bowl. >> jimmy: okay. you think it's like 3-1? i'll lock you in on that bet. >> 3-1? >> jimmy: absolutely. >> how much? hold on. >> jimmy: whatever amount you want. whatever amount you want. it could be $100. >> $100. >> jimmy: the lions win the super bowl, i'll give you $300. and if they lose, you give me $100. >> all right. we'll do that. >> jimmy: now the vegas odds are 12-1. you could have done a lot better. [ laughter ] but i am from las vegas. >> but i love my team. so i'm going all in. >> jimmy: how was your summer? did you do anything fun?

>> i did a lot of -- i worked this summer. i went to australia. >> jimmy: nice. >> that was fun, yeah, australia is great. >> jimmy: but it's winter in australia. >> it was becoming fall. it was very nice. it was summer going into fall. >> jimmy: i see. >> so i had a good time there. and got to do a movie there. and that was fun. came home. and, you know, went to the beach a little bit. and spent a lot of time with elle, with my wife elle. >> jimmy: beautiful. did you blend? did you start doing the australian accent while you were there? >> you know you try to do a little bit of it. i started working on it. the one thing you have to remember about the australians there is that they don't say the word -- they don't say the word "no." they say this other word that spelled naur. did you go to that restaurant last night? naur. naur. no, i didn't. naur. it's crazy.

they don't have -- when you hear a sound in language, they call it a dipp thong which is two words mixed together. they have quad thongs. they sound like english cowboys. adelaide, and the way that you get -- i learned this with somebody. the way you get into the accent is just say jennifer lopez. and you can keep doing it from there. you know who i like? i like jennifer lopez. wild pace. >> jimmy: good choice of celebrities to get into. >> it's a good one to get into it. >> jimmy: a transformers movie, by the way, i will say my 7-year-old son and i watched it. >> yes. >> jimmy: and he loved it. >> oh, that's great. i'm so happy to hear that. >> jimmy: you went to comic-con for this? >> we did. we went to comic-con in san diego. it's wild down there. and it can get crazy. >> jimmy: i've heard.

>> people are passionate. and it's sometimes hard to navigate the place and walk around. and so elle, my wife elle, she bought me some sunglasses so i could kind of go incognito and go to the halls and look at the comic books. >> jimmy: that did it? sunglasses did it? >> the sunglasses actually worked. have i the sunglasses right here. >> jimmy: oh, you do. >> these are the sunglasses. >> jimmy: oh, yeah. >> these are the sunglasses. >> jimmy: they'll never know one of the stars of transformers. those worked? >> they actually worked. check this.

>> i did see that. but my dad didn't want me to see it. >> jimmy: he didn't want you to. at a certain age you shouldn't be watching "the sopranos." but i think you could watch it now. >> i should watch it now. i think it's time. >> jimmy: is it because it's your dad, it's like whatever? >> maybe i was hearing so much about it and grew up with those people and those actors. and never thought. >> jimmy: would they come to the house? >> yeah, yeah. that's why it was so mesmerized by all of it. because i would go visit my dad on set and watch all these people that i knew in real life just transform into completely different people. >> jimmy: interesting. did you know james gandolfini? >> yeah, yeah. grew up with him. >> jimmy: wow. >> and his son michael gandolfini, we're still so close to him. he is doing so amazing. >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. >> so great. >> jimmy: so you would meet this guy and then he is cracking people's skulls. >> yeah, yeah. whoa, i want to play dress-up as a career that looks so fun. >> jimmy: funny, because it could go the other way really easily. and you would be oh, no, adults

are not to be trusted. >> but i knew him. so the transformation was that looks so much fun. >> jimmy: and that is what made you want to do this? >> totally. >> jimmy: interesting. >> yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: and yet you've never seen the show. >> i know. >> jimmy: you would like it. it's really, really good. would like the cast of "game of thrones" come over for thanksgiving and kill each other over the turkey or something like that? >> if that shot in new york, i'm sure they would be at the thanksgiving dinner. but they shot that in ireland. >> jimmy: no thanksgiving in ireland. >> no thanksgiving. >> jimmy: they're not very grateful over there at all. >> they don't give thanks, no. >> jimmy: on your show you play a college student. >> yes. >> jimmy: did you go college? >> i did not. >> jimmy: you did not. so you're really acting here. >> this is my college experience here. i'm really good. i'm really good. >> jimmy: and the show has a lot of flashbacks, sequences, and takes place over what -- what span of time? >> it's from 2008 to 2015 going back and forth between the two. >> jimmy: so you get in

different outfits? is it different? >> the jeans just keep getting higher as it goes along. >> jimmy: oh, yeah, right. somebody pays very close attention to that sort of thing. because it's important. >> people are really serious about the low-rise jeans. >> jimmy: and the kid who plays your boyfriend in the show is your boyfriend in real life? >> it's my real life boyfriend. he is backstage right now. >> jimmy: oh, he is? and do people -- do fans of the show, when they see you together, are they -- >> angry. >> jimmy: angry? >> it's crazy. after the first season came out and no one really knew we were together yet. but one time this girl screamed out of her car, "get away from him!" they were so worried for me. now they see that he's nowhere near what he is like. kind of like james gandolfini. you watch him turn into a monster in front of my eyes. >> jimmy: it's weird, because it is a compliment when people. >> believe it. >> jimmy: believe that deeply that they're upset.

but it also indicates kind of a lack of knowledge of humanity in general. >> and the fans of it, it feels like we're on a reality show. it's that visceral, intense. they feel like it's real. my grandma thinks my boyfriend is like that. that jackson, i don't think. >> jimmy: is that true? >> yeah yeah. >> jimmy: this poor guy, when he comes over to the house he has to be doubly extra nice to everybody. >> he's really got to turn it up, yeah. >> jimmy: or maybe you could talk to the writers and have them tone it down a little so he can live his life. >> give him a redemption. poor guy. >> jimmy: wow, well, that's something else. if you guys have a make-out scene, it's who cares. you're just saving time. we don't have to do this later. [ laughter ] and i heard that you are playing amanda knox. >> yes. >> jimmy: in your next project. >> yes, i am. >> jimmy: do you know amanda knox? >> i recently met her for the first time. she is a produce other tonight

project. >> jimmy: oh, she is. >> so she is involved in it. she is so passionate. >> jimmy: that's a different twist. >> yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: because you do see a lot of times playing people in real life. but almost never is that person -- >> are they a part of it. i know. it's amazing and so helpful and also so terrifying because she is watching me try and play her. it's -- i'm so scared. >> jimmy: does she stop you and go mmm. >> no, no, no, no. >> jimmy: i would not do something like that. >> well, i haven't started acting yet. this is early on. so hopefully not. cut, cut! that's not how i did it. >> jimmy: that would be really weird. well you have a weird life. so it sounds like it makes perfect sense. >> thank you. i'm happy to share it with others. >> jimmy: please give my best to all the van pattens wherever they may be scattered around. >> everywhere. >> jimmy: the show is called "tell me lies." season two, right? >> season two. >> jimmy: wednesday nights on hulu.
