>> jimmy: very nice. thank you for watching the show, thank you for watching me on television. i would like to begin by wishing you happy columbus day today. a lot of people had the day off work today, instead of going to the work and checking facebook all day you checked facebook at home all day. [ laughter ] every columbus day i do the same thing. tradition. i dress up as a native american and cry. christopher columbus back in 1492, i happened -- happened upon north america by mistake, trying to find india, using the apple maps app. it is kind of funny we have a national holiday to honor a guy who basically got lost and wouldn't admit it. looking for india, not only didn't he find india, he was 13,000 miles off.

india is only 5,000 miles from spain. it's 18,000 miles away from us here. what did columbus do? he saw land on the horizon, turned to his crew and said, there it is, india, i found it. then he called everyone who live tld indians for the whole rest of the -- he was an idiot. columbus was an idiot and today we honor him. [ cheers and applause ] one of the other guys on the ship had to know. i bet his wife knew. got off the ship and rolled her eyes, here we are in india. today also happens to be canadian thanksgiving. canadian thanksgiving is just like our thanksgiving, they have turkey, whole deal, only difference is up there the families are polite and they get along with each other. the best part of canadian thanksgiving for me is getting up in the middle of the night and going to refrigerator and making a cold moose meat sandwich. i imagine that's what it's like.

president obama was here in los angeles last night. he was here with his agent taking meetings in case it doesn't work out next month. never be too careful he was here with a concert, katy perry, jennifer hudson and george clooney. if obama goes more than a month without seeing george clooney he gets nervous. one performer not invited was william taply, he refers to himself as quote, third eagle of theapocalypse and co-prophet of -- co-host. mr. taply posting original songs on his eau tube channel and latest is anti-obama anthem called "take the r train" cat catching tune that reveals shocking facts about our president. ♪ let's out obama like

"newsweek" today ♪ ♪ he is our first gay president ♪ ♪ after november michelle will leave ♪ then he'll shack up with george, ed or steve ♪ >> jimmy: that seems hypocriti hypocritical to me. can we look at this from the other angle of this song? [ laughter ] meanwhile, mitt romney is on the campaign trail talking all kinds of folks like you and me, romney stopped at the tin fish restaurant in port st. lucie with the staff when a member decided to clean him up.

[ laughter ] he's already creating new jobs. let's watch that again in slow motion. the person is like, this is nice and then -- oh. oh, okay. wait a minute now. and then he kind of uses his hand to tap, tap, now we're going to push that out of the frame. where is the secret service when this is going on? for all we know that was doused in chloroform, nonalcoholic beer or something. a pierce of footage you probably won't want to see in slow motion. hulk hogan sex tape debuted on the internet and if you saw wrestling was fake wait until you see this. when you see the words hulk hogan sex tape, you have that moment before you decide whether or not to click it, i feel like

that's about as close as you gaent to staring into your own soul. i looked into my soul and i clicked it. and the tape features a very tan, peroxided blond with enormous breasts and there is a woman in it with him. "the daily news" says the woman is rumored to be the wife of a friend, a radio talk show host. hulk hogan saying it wasn't made with his consent. hair cut was though. only a minute released but people say at one point he struggles for a full minute trying to open up the condom package which is funny coming from a guy constantly ripping hi shirt off. i'm going to show you some video but be warned what you're about to see is extremely, extremely graphic. >> going down. he's on his knees. i can't believe it. look. he's turning to the referee.

>> jimmy: that's why they put the f in wwf. i think we had the wrong tape. hulk hogan is demanding to know who shot the tape released hist embarrassing but not as embarrassing as this movie. "mr. nanny" he's big, he's bad and he's babysignificant. no sex tape could be more embarrassing than that. another couple whose love blossomed on camera, bachelor ben and courtney, last remaining "bachelor" couple has broken up. as this pointed you're more likely to meet your future spouse at guantanamo bay. we continue to watch. i looked this up, out of 15 bachelors 16 failed relationships, one guy, twice. ben and courtney said after

meeting over a year ago we decided to end our romantic relationship. ups and downs weighed heavily on us both and ultimately we started to grow apart because of distance, time part and need to focus on our respective ka reese, which i assume means getting ready for "bachelor pad." i feel bad for bachelor ben, he seems like a nice guy. if only there were warning signs that courtney may not have been the best choice for a mate. >> i'm sure there are some girls intimidate bid me and they probably should be. most of these girls are not girls i would be friends with. nicky, you lk like an idiot. let me tell you. this is hard to get off. i'm really competitive and i usual wlin. winning. winning. winning. winning. winning. i got a rose. you don't. oh. i'm a rose.

i almost just want to rip her head off and verbally assault her. i'm not too worried about her because she's like a little girl to me. not competition, like a little girl and like a little boy's body. snap, girls, show's over. you can all go home, back your bags. oh, my god. >> will you marry me? >> kill shot. >> jimmy: we did not find the next mrs. -- maybe we found the next mrs. charlie sheen. guillermo, are you upset about courtney and ben breaking up? >> guillermo: no, she's crazy. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i want to ask but something you treated on friday. on friday guillermo tweeted, what do you guys think should i get a tattoo or not? you realize twitter is not a life coach, right? >> guillermo: yeah. >> jimmy: based on the responses you got, what are you going to

do? >> guillermo: i wanted to do it but my wife said no way. >> jimmy: your wife said no way? why? >> guillermo: because you're not a -- >> jimmy: if you get a tattoo you won't be able to be buried in a jewish cemetery. >> guillermo: right >> jimmy: your ite has tattoos, doesn't she? >> >> guillermo: one right here. >> jimmy: isn't that interesting? if i was were you i would get a big mike tyson face tattoo. >> guillermo: i told her to put that one in there. because it's angelina jolie, the dragon. >> jimmy: whose tattoo is angelina jolie? >> guillermo: angelina jolie has a dragon here. >> jimmy: you wanted her to get the same tattoo angelina jolie has? [ laughter ] really? [ cheers and applause ] in that case, she's right.

are you hoping to marry brad pitt one day? what's this -- >> guillermo: i just like it. >> jimmy: i think if you got a tattoo it would detract from the majesty of your moustache. you should remain tattoo-less. >> guillermo: i agree with you. >> jimmy: good. lady gaga had an embarrassing moment on stage in barcelona on saturday. she threw up, singing "edge of glory" and threw up three times. for the fat gnat -- fortunately there is video. >> there is lady gaga. once. pay attention to the backup dancer here. because he sees this. lease like -- there is a moment of concern and then he realizes, hey, you know what? it is up to me to save the day

he here. and he goes. i would like to have that when i grow up. -- when i throw up. last week, i don't know if it's an epidemic but justin bieber threw up on stage. this week lady gaga only one reasonable explanation for this. lady gaga ate justin bieber. >> guillermo: oh, no. >> jimmy: this is a strange new technological development, farmers in switzerland can implant sensors in their cows that will send them a text message when the cows are ready to mate, similar to the way tiger woods does it here in the united states. do they know what kind of mood the cows were in by using heat detecters and the detectors send a text. the creators of the technology are hoping it takes off. so much so they shot a commercial that has been running on swiss television. i would like to share that commercial with you now. >> are you a bored farmer who wants to connect with the hottest, most exciting cows in

your area? >> ja! >> beautiful bovines are waiting for you. she's waiting. she's waiting. and she's waiting. text milky to 59481 and for three francs ovulating cows will text you back. imagine an intimate personal message from a hot cow. what are you waiting for? text now. you will be so glad you did. >> moo! >> jimmy: we have a good show tonight. demi lovato, music from ben howard. and we'll be right back with ben affleck, so stick around. doorbell rings ]

each other is a sign of comfortability. i'm like yeah, a sign mef still hating you. >> jimmy: if simon were 25 years old would you date him? >> no. >> jimmy: no. >> no. >> jimmy: why not? >> because he parts his hair down the middle. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: he really does. what is going on with that? why -- is that a thing in england we don't know about? that middle hair thing he does? >> i don't know. you know what? he does this thing with his blow drier backstage, he blow dries it and goes like this and he's good. >> jimmy: so you have seen him blow dry his hair. >> like 30 million times. >> jimmy: really? you share a dressing room? why are you watching him? is there something going on between you and simon we don't know about? >> we're twins. no, we have a like a green room, so we all kind of share one big dressing room. >> jimmy: wow. that's surprising.

i would think like simon would have his own portable castle that he had. >> he has his own portable oxygen tank. >> jimmy: does laelly? >> no. >> jimmy: no. i think britney would have her own bounce house she would be in with her children. >> if she did, i would be in it. >> jimmy: and no problems between you? because we're seeing they're make a thing out of this on "american idol." do you feel competitive with "american idol" now? >> no. i mean, it's just, it's another tv show and at the end of the day it's about making someone's dream come true. >> jimmy: and destroying many more people's dreams. >> absolutely. but being nice about it. >> jimmy: traveling around the country and seeing all of these people is america more or less talented than you imjinled it would be? >> no, america's extremely talented and i knew when we went to austin that they would be very talented because i know a lot of people out here from texas and i'm from texas and we work really hard there and we just go for it. and we're out there and we're in

your face and so i was expecting a lot. >> jimmy: did you feel like that was the strongest of the cities you were in? >> they were all great. >> jimmy: now you're getting wishy-washy on us. which was the worst city of all of them? >> none. it's a beautiful country. >> jimmy: i want to create a situation where you arrive on tour into a city and people just boo you the moment you -- it had to be one city that wasn't good. >> every city they booed me in. >> jimmy: no, they didn't. >> yes, if you say no the audience boos you. >> jimmy: like when you show up on your concert tour. >>, no, they just like -- they throw underwear and stuff. it's weird. >> jimmy: who. >> i was in south america, every time i go there, i was in brazil last weekend and i -- first, i thought it was cool because girls were throwing their bras and i feel like motley crue, that's kind of weird but okay.

and then it got really weird when they started throwing their underpants at me. >> jimmy: it gets hot there, maybe they were just taking their clothes off. >> maybe. >> jimmy: what will do you with these underpants? do you add them to your collection? >> i wear them on my head. what else would do you? >> jimmy: congratulations on things doing so well. i'm enjoying you on the show. don't ease up on simon. keep him going. >> i'm not. >> jimmy: demi lovato, the x-factor" on fox. we'll be right back with ben howard.
