tv   Jimmy Kimmel Live  ABC  February 14, 2013 11:35pm-12:35am EST

11:35 pm
from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live." tonight, rachel weisz, and music from josh groban. with cleto and the cletones. and now roses are red, violets are blue, here's jimmy kimmel! >> jimmy: welcome. how are you? thank you. hi there. i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show.
11:36 pm
thank you for watching. thanks to you for joining me here on this romantic night. i'd like to wish each and every one of you a happy -- oh crap, i forgot today was valentine's day day. there's nothing sadder than the guy standing in line at the supermarket on valentine's night clutching whatever wilted roses were left in the store. maybe a panty hose egg as a gift. do they still come in eggs? it's just a bad scene. there's a lot of pressure on valentine's, though. not for me. tonight i'm taking a very special lady out for valentine's and that lady is myself. [ applause ] for those of you who are at home right now getting into bed, this, of course, is the sexing hour. i don't want to interrupt that. but i also don't want you to miss the show. so as a courtesy, anyone on camera, cover their eyes. that means dickey, cleto,
11:37 pm
guillermo cover your eyes. let's give these people some privacy. those of you at home, go ahead, let the love-making process begin. do whatever comes naturally. [ applause ] okay. oh, not finished. all right. okay. all right. go ahead and finish. finish, finish, finish, finish. finish. and. okay. finished. good job. [ applause ] get that out of the way. valentine's day, as you know, celebrates the feast of st. valentines. i hear from a lot of women who swear they don't care about valentine's day. in my experience, you can tell how much someone cares about valentine's day by how much they tell you they don't care about valentine's day. nobody ever sends the flowers back, let's put it that way. but for some people, it's a
11:38 pm
depressing day to be single. if you are single and if you're feeling lonely right now, you can always go to the airport and request a tsa patdown. that is there, it is free, and it is available. how many of you in our studio audience are here on a valentine's day date? [ applause ] all right. it's interesting. tickets to the show are free, so anyone here on a date tonight is dating a cheapskate is what they're doing. [ laughter ] according to a new survey, people are spending an average of $126 on valentine's day this year. don't hookers cost less than that? [ laughter ] every year, i hear a lot of ads on the radio for those vermont teddy bears. which that doesn't seem like a great gift to me. but i guess people like them. i think the ad campaigns have something to do with it. i saw a tv commercial for this over the weekend. it seems like they're taking a much more honest approach this year. >> this valentine's day, give your loved one a gift that tells you just how you feel. the lovable, huggable giant
11:39 pm
teddy bear from the vermont teddy bear company. just because she's a full grown woman doesn't mean you can't give her the same thing you give a 3-year-old girl. this valentine's day, forget expensive roses. she'll probably just try to put them in her mouth anyway. treat her like an infant with a gift from the vermont teddy bear company. insulting adult women with crap for over 30 years. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> two weeks from ynow, giving your cleaning lady a giant teddy bear. here's a strange valentine's fact. one in five americans bought their pet a valentine's gift this year, which if you think about it is very sad. at least when you give your pet a gift, you know ahead of time he won't appreciate it. but americans spend a total of $815 million on their pets for valentine's day. that seems like -- your dog is going to hump your leg regardless. [ laughter ] you do not need to buy the dog a gift. the survey by the national retail foundation said that some people even give their fish
11:40 pm
valentine's day gifts. a good way to tell that you've lost your mind is if you give your fish a valentine's day gift. by the way, it's probably too late now, but i would like to remind you about our holiday themed youtube challenge. on tuesday, i asked those of you watching at home, guys specifically, to wrap something small about the size of a jewelry box and give it to your wife or girlfriend. but instead, i'd like you to put something strange in the box. something she definitely won't be happy to get. and then post video of her reaction to youtube with the title hey jimmy kimmel, i gave my wife or girlfriend a terrible gift for valentine's day. the plan is to collect our favorite submissions and play them on the show next week, but we've got a few videos early. i guess people celebrated early. and if this is any indication of what's to come, i think we might have trouble on our hands. >> a few months ago, my girlfriend and i went to kay jewelers and i purchased this engagement ring, so for the last couple months, she's been hounding me to propose to her and to give it to her. so thanks to jimmy kimmel's
11:41 pm
suggestion, i think i will. i want to videotape. >> why are you videotaping? >> because i have a gift for you. a gift on valentine's day. >> if it's an empty box -- it was a [ bleep ]. you gave me a box of [ bleep ]? >> happy valentine's day. how, gross. >> i touched it with my hand! [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> jimmy: this specific one i said gave her a crappy gift. i did not mean that literally. see, that's a gift you can give your pet for valentine's day. here's some news from the world of dentistry. the song "gangnam style" has been named best song for kids to listen to while brushing their teeth. however, it is the worst song to listen to during everything else.
11:42 pm
[ laughter ] [ applause ] thank you. a music expert and a dental expert wanted to figure out which song had the best beat for kids to properly brush to. they decided it would be a song that had eight bars of music followed by two sets of four bars, a double chorus and a middle bridging section and it turns out "gangnam style" fits that description perfectly. the "hey sexy lady" part particularly gets kids concentrating. [ laughter ] personally i think most parents would rather have all their kids' teeth fall out than hear that song one more time. but on the topic of toothbrushing, this is another good clip. the global news affiliate yesterday, anchorwoman lisa dut on the was talking about how she thought it would be a good idea for somebody to make a vibrating teething toy and in doing so make sure her son can never ever be seen in public again. >> when my son was teething, he used to like the take the big fat rubber end of my vibrating toothbrush and put it on his mouth and he would sit there like oh yeah, that feels good.
11:43 pm
that hits the spot. my gums are itchy. >> jimmy: the guy with the mohawk. they have different methods of parenting out there. one more thing, back to valentine's day. one of our guests tonight, josh groban. i really like josh groban, he's a very nice guy. [ cheers and applause ] very talented guy. josh has a new product he's endorsing and i don't typically let our guests run commercials during our show, but this is something he's very passionate about. he's done a lot for us here at the show. also i think this is good for our viewers who might be looking for a way to spice up the romance in their life. so take a look. >> hello there. i'm josh groban. sex. have i got your attention? let me say it again. sex. do you have sex? do you sometimes feel like you aren't good at sex? well, now you are. going to be. these are josh groban sex pills.
11:44 pm

11:49 pm
11:50 pm
hi, everyone. rachel weisz and josh groban are on the way. iran, you know the country iran, they did something crazier than usual last month. iran introduced what they described as a state of the art military super jet named kaher 313. when aviation experts got a close look at the picture, they concluded that there is no way this jet can fly. one expert said it looks like the iranians dumped some rudimentary flight controls into an ejection seat and put it in a shell. which basically means they just unveiled a fleet of attack go-karts. but this week i guess they released the criticism and they released this photo of it in flight. but the image is clearly
11:51 pm
photoshoped. it looks like they took this photo of the super jet sitting in a hangar and combined it with this photo which you can find on a computer wallpaper website to make this photo. it's the worst christmas photo since the kardashian christmas card. either that or this jet is so stealth that it doesn't exist. but i guess you can still use it for photo bombing, right? but in addition to the fighter jet, iran also unveiled a new fighter boat, a new fighter spaceship, and another new fighter jet. as long as they don't run out of quarters, they will be a force to be reckoned with. tomorrow, an asteroid with a diameter of 150 feet will pass within 17,000 miles of the earth. 17,000 miles is actually very close. it's the closest an object of that size has come to the earth in recorded history. the best viewing locations will be in indonesia and eastern europe. or if you're here and you can't
11:52 pm
get there, you can just have a friend whip a pebble at your head. it's not expected to hit us, but still, hold your loved ones close, listen to some aerosmith and be glad that bruce willis is still with us just in case something does need to be done. it's always a big deal when an asteroid passes close by the earth. so today, i sent a camera crew on to hollywood boulevard to ask people if they saw it. even though it has not passed us yet. the asteroid is named 2012 da-14. keep in mind, da-14 won't be close enough to see until tomorrow, so unless these people work for nasa, there's no way they could have seen it yet, but that didn't stop them from telling us they did in tonight's edition of "lie witness news." >> did you happen to catch a glimpse of the asteroid passing the earth? >> yes, i did. >> can you describe it for us? >> awesome. unbelievable. >> did you catch a glimpse of the asteroid go by the earth
11:53 pm
last night? >> yeah. i looked up in the sky, saw -- it was black and some like fire things coming out the back of it. >> did you see the asteroid pass by the earth last night? >> yes, i did. i actually seen like a bright light with green bright white line. it was like i didn't know what it was. i looked out i was like whoa, i thought it was a shooting star. but it didn't look like a shooting star. it shook a little bit, because i was like oh [ bleep ], what's going on? i was on a skateboard. >> did you see the asteroid pass by the earth? >> did i see the asteroid? yeah, i saw those fireworks. all of a sudden it was pitch black and boom, there was a light that shined out and went in all directions. it was amazing. fantastic. >> can you describe what it looked like up in the sky? >> it was so fast i could barely see it, so i can't really say. >> shooting star. >> it was bright. >> did it shine bright? like a diamond? >> like a diamond. >> did you hear any noise or
11:54 pm
anything like that? >> i didn't hear anything. i just looked up and i said what the hay? so i grabbed my phone and taped it. >> do you have it with you? >> yeah, i do. >> what is it? [ laughter ] >> what was that? >> i don't know. >> we're talking to people that saw the asteroid pass by the earth last night. >> dude! no, because i'm on porn all night long on the computer. >> you're on porn? >> all night long. [ applause ] >> jimmy: it's time for our weekly tribute to the fcc where we bleep and blur things whether they need it or not. it is "this week in unnecessary censorship." >> we will draw upon the courage and skills of our sisters and daughters and moms because women have proven under fire that they
11:55 pm
are ready for [ bleep ]. >> i want to [ bleep ] jay-z. i want to [ bleep ] taylor. >> tonight a [ bleep ] fiasco. >> we are at the world famous gorgeous opera house in london's [ bleep ] garden. >> it's tough to even look into the camera, the snow is almost [ bleep ] you in the face. >> a big guy at heart even though i've had a couple [ bleep ], but i think it's a big year. >> i'm savannah guthrie and together we're [ bleep ] america. >> a very nice balance of salty and sour to the mild flavor of the [ bleep ]. >> dude, you're ripped. >> [ bleep ]. >> name something you do to your body. >> you [ bleep ] it. >> good answer. >> jimmy: we have a great show today. josh groban is here. we'll be right back with rachel weisz. so stick around.
11:56 pm

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: okay, thank you. is valentine's day a big thing in england too? >> yeah, it's the same as here. it's very busy for florists. >> jimmy: sure. you pay like three times as much for the flowers. are you insistent -- i guess the fact that you're here means that you're not particularly -- >> i'm spending it with you, jimmy. >> jimmy: yes, you're spending it with me. is it an important holiday to you? >> well, i mean, i don't think of it like some official holiday where people stop working and the world stops. it's like it's a hallmark holiday, wouldn't you say? >> jimmy: absolutely. there's no question about it. >> i'm not big on it.
12:05 am
>> jimmy: that's good. i like that. it's kind of ridiculous, the whole thing. >> i think you show your love throughout the year. >> jimmy: yeah. we don't do that anyway, but it's a good point. when guys say every day is valentine's day. that mean no, sir day is ever valentine's day. >> well, i'm a woman and i'm not so into it. >> jimmy: same here. when did you first come to the united states? >> oh, i like that. when did i first come here. i came here the very first time with my mom and dad when i was about 12 and we went to -- came to california and we went to disney land and then we went to yosemite. >> jimmy: that's nice. it was a vacation. and you were here for a little while? >> yeah, it was like a two-week holiday. i couldn't believe how many channels there were on the tv. because in england, we only at that point had four channels. bbc 1, bbc 2 -- actually, three. >> jimmy: so you came to watch
12:06 am
television. >> we didn't want to go anywhere because there were like 60 channels. >> jimmy: is that right? you got cable later than we did. >> yeah, i think the '90s. >> jimmy: what do you remember watching? >> "the brady bunch."

12:07 am
>> jimmy: i've never been to graceland. is that everything that everyone says it is? >> oh, it's fabulous. you get taken into his bedroom, which he has this huge bed with like leopard skin -- i think fake leopard skin, of course, kind of sheets everywhere. it was fabulous. >> jimmy: do you like fat elvis or thin elvis? >> i'd take him any way. and the fabulous thing about elvis is that even when he was fat and very drunk and high on a lot of drugs, he could still -- nothing could touch that voice. i mean, have you seen those -- you know, when he's singing in vegas. >> jimmy: i grew up in las vegas. >> did you? really? >> jimmy: he's like a saint there. >> you know, when he's singing and he's forgetting the lines and giggling and everything. but nothing could get in the way of that gift. >> jimmy: you know what i love most about elvis is he died on the toilet, which is how i want to go. [ laughter ] >> is that really true? >> jimmy: yeah, he did. >> on the toilet? is that like public record? >> jimmy: well, no, his family

12:24 am
>> jimmy: it's great to have you here. congratulations -- is it still exciting when the cd is number one? >> yeah. it's my sixth album, so whenever it goes number one, you feel like the fans have responded to it. it's a great feeling. >> j . >> jimmy: do you buy a copy for yourself? >> it has been my tradition. as soon as it's available for preorder, i get on itunes, i buy myself one. it's the least i can do for myself. >> jimmy: you want to see what the process is like. >> out of that ten bucks i spend, i'm sure i get like 50 cents. but i get a little bit back. i've been doing that since album one. it's fun. >> jimmy: do you ever go to the record store? >> there aren't really any record stores anymore, but back when there was virgin megastore on sunset boulevard, there was a big one, and my first album had come out and nobody even knew my music. and i stood in line with a few of my high school friends and i said excuse me, do you have that josh groban album? i don't see it on the shelf. it comes out at midnight. and the lady was totally
12:25 am
confused. she was like josh brolin? josh brolin sings? josh goblin? what are you talking about? so they had to go down to the warehouse and find my little cd. i dusted it off. yes, finally. you know, you should put these in the front. this is a really good singer. >> jimmy: do do you that thing where you arrange the cds in the front? >> pretty much. bieber, groban. close enough. >> jimmy: you cover a stevie wonder song on the cd. >> i do. >> jimmy: do you know stevie wonder? >> i've met him many times. nobody writes about love better than stevie wonder. he gets every side of it. he's been such a kind person to me in the business and somebody whose songs are so universal that truly anybody in their own genre can sing his songs and can still make something out of them. >> jimmy: but it's intimidating to sing a stevie wonder song. >> it's terrifying. >> jimmy: that voice is -- i mean -- >> he's the best. nobody will ever touch a stevie wonder version of his song. you can only hope to pay homage
12:26 am
to it, and hopefully do your own twist on it and just express it as best you can. just knowing what a nice guy he is. >> jimmy: did you ask him if you could record the song? >> always. i like to because it's important to me that i have somebody's blessing. but he's great. i got to sing for him once at a grammy benefit honoring him and i sang a song of his called "they will go when i go." and i'm walking down the hallway and i saw him sitting there and i was just too afraid to say anything. he goes josh. i take his hand. he goes we're gonna write a song together. we're gonna write a song that that's gonna change the world. i'm thinking oh, my god, thank you, yes! yes! you guys hear that? you hear that? that happened. >> jimmy: and did you? >> no. never. i was too afraid to call. >> jimmy: maybe he had the wrong josh. like how did he know you were even walking by? >> he goes that was josh brolin. i love him in that movie "w."
12:27 am
>> jimmy: you have to follow up. >> i think my way of expressing fandom is to interpret a song. you sit next to the guy, and i would freeze. my hands would freeze. we would write something bad because of me and i feel like i blew it. >> jimmy: i can help you with it if you want. i'm sure you, me and stevie would work something out. >> we could make the next "ebony and ivory and ivory." i think that's chop sticks actually. >> jimmy: one artist you collaborated with for our show, you didn't actually collaborate with him because he had no part of it, but you put quest's tweets to music. for those that didn't see it, we have a look. >> josh groban's the best tweets of kanye west. ♪ can we please toast to the [ bleep ] douche bags do you know where to find the conference tables

looking to have a conference not until i get the table though ♪ >> jimmy: that is very popular on youtube. i think it's got like four million views though. >> it went totally viral on that. >> jimmy: that's one of your biggest hits now. >> i gave up some of my best melodies for that bit. >> jimmy: have you heard from kanye? >> i have not heard from kanye. i was hoping maybe he'd see it or get the joke. >> jimmy: he has seen it. >> you've heard from kanye. >> jimmy: i have heard from kanye. i tried to get him to sing your tweets. your tweets weren't crazy enough for him. >> i'm so sorry. that would have been hysterical. >> jimmy: he declined. >> well, kanye lives in a wonderful universe all his own. i just wanted him to know that that was a celebration of kanye. i'm poking fun at myself too in that bit. you can't make those things up. >> jimmy: those lyrics are untopable. >> it's funny he contacted you because i keep running into him
