so there's still plenty of time for something terrible to happen. former president bush and first lady laura bush were in africa last week. they were there on a humanitarian visit. and this to me is the worst part about being president. it's not deciding whether to send troops to war or the daily scrutiny of the schedule. worst part of being president i think is being forced to dance with villagers. [ laughter ] imagine if lincoln had to do this? he wouldn't be on money. [ laughter ] i have to hand it to him. it looks like someone saw "magic mike" on showtime this month. [ laughter ] a california lawmaker's leading an unusual crusade right now. assemblyman rob bonta from oakland introduced a proposal that if passed would require the state to provide condoms to prison inmates. apparently, the rate of sexually transmitted diseases is very high among the prison population. back in 2007 our then governor arnold schwarzenegger vetoed a bill that would have provided condoms to prisoners. if there's one thing arnold

schwarzenegger is not in favor of, it is condoms. [ laughter ] and i do think he's proven that with his words and his actions. but assemblyman bonta wants to reverse that. and i agree. i think condoms are a step in the right direction. and flowers would be nice, too. how exactly will this work? when the 350-pound white supremacist is about to mount you, you ask if he has protection? [ laughter ] whether you're for or against this, i think we can all agree that it is great news for incarcerated clowns who want to keep up with their balloon animals. [ laughter ] speaking of sex in unusual places, this is an interesting twist on a classic local news story. a woman in new york just turned 100 years old. so local news 12 sent a reporter to her house to do what they always do in these situations, ask inane questions and wait for an answer of some kind. but this particular centenarian had something very different and something very dirty in mind. >> [ bleep ].

>> what are you doing to celebrate your birthday? >> huh? >> what are you doing to celebrate your birthday? >> [ bleep ]. >> what does it mean to you to make it to 100? >> [ bleep ]. 100 [ bleep ]. the good stuff is [ bleep ]. it will be better when i get a good [ bleep ]. >> well, at least she isn't hard to buy for. [ applause ] being old isn't for everyone. after six months of testing, facebook is finally rolling out its graphsearch feature for users in the united states. graphsearch lets you search for very specific things within your group of friends. for instance, you could find all your friends who live in brooklyn and are vegan. that way you know who not to invite to parties. [ laughter ] basically, facebook is allowing

you to create specific subgroups among your friends, which can be very helpful when it comes, to i don't know, figuring out who gave you herpes. i don't know what. [ laughter ] this truly is the golden age of being creepy. by the way, the nsa should just buy facebook. they wouldn't need to spy on us because we are already spying on each other all the time. [ laughter ] but if you're concerned like i am about these new search features, facebook has made it relatively easy to change your privacy settings. you simply hit the account tab in the upper left-hand corner of the screen. scroll down to settings. then choose privacy from the pop-up menu. you'll be directed to a screen offering a variety of selections from which you can simply review the tabs applicable to the types of posts you'd like people to be able to access. click the pulldown menus for each tab associated with each privacy setting you'd like to change. make sure town click the boxes associated with sharing in the profile and make sure you click through the advanced options so you can manually enable https and prevent friend of friend sharing from being able to access the share tabs you specifically designated

protected. and then you move on to step 2. it's as simple as that. [ applause ] i'm exhausted. this is pretty good. i saw this on cnn headline news while i was in pilates this morning. it's the cnn headline news awkward segue of the day. ♪ >> i always wondered why in baseball you have to see the managers in the tight white pants. >> it's the only league where the managers wear uniforms. yeah. >> we don't need to see that. >> and they're the one -- it's the one time where you don't wait to see all the tightness. >> a family's home exploded in the middle of the day. ♪ >> that's unfortunate. maybe their home exploded because its uniform was too tight. [ laughter ] disgraced former governor eliot spitzer is getting back into politics. he announced his intention to run for comptroller of the city of new york. now, if you're wondering what exactly a comptroller does, it's

interesting. he comptroels. he or she is totally in charge of comptroling in the area. as you may recall eliot spitzer resigned from the governor's office five years ago after what, he was crushed by a pile of prostitutes or something. but he's back. and what makes is interesting is one of his opponents, a woman named kristen davis, is the madam who supplied him with call girls. it's the classic story of boy meets girl, boy pays for sex with girl, boy resigns in disgrace and then boy runs against girl he paid for other girls for the office of comptroller. [ laughter ] in africa they call it "hooker matata." [ applause ] but this is unquestionably the most excited i've ever been for a comptroller election. if you watch this show with any regularity, you know that i am a fan of practical jokes. and this is a good one. this guy's girlfriend fell asleep on the couch. so he set up -- that's a puppet he set up to make it look like a ghost is coming out of the tv set like in the movie "the

ring." and once the trap was set, he went behind the tv and started making noise. [ screaming ] this is her point of view. you know, it's nice. most couples have wedding videos. very few couples have video of the moment they broke up. [ laughter ] but they do. hey, if you -- yes, well done. [ applause ] lonely guy. if you're desperate to quit smoking, this is a method you might want to consider. a turkish man, a man named ibrahim yusel, has been smoking two packs a day for the last 26 years. so what he did is he started wearing a cage on his head to keep cigarettes away from his lips. here's another shot. the cage has a lock on each side. i don't know where you'd buy something -- i don't know who makes lockable head cages. but every day before she leaves

the house his wife locks the cage on his head and keeps the keys so he can't take it off. and he says he hasn't smoked a single cigarette since he started wearing it. which i found this very simple but effective technique. so we arranged an interview with ibrahim via skype. and please say hello now to ibrahim yusel. hello, ibrahim. [ cheers and applause ] ibrahim, it's jimmy kimmel. >> hello. >> jimmy: and we're calling from the united states. >> it is hard to see you because i have a cage on my head. >> jimmy: yes, i see that. so tell me, you decided to try to quit smoking by -- [ phone ringing ] -- putting a cage on your head. is that your phone? >> excuse me. >> jimmy: yes. >> hello? hello? i cannot hear you because i have a cage on my head.

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: ibrahim, tell us how the cage works. how does it -- how do you do it? >> every morning my beautiful wife yamush locks the cage on my head, and i cannot open. >> jimmy: i see. >> do you see? >> jimmy: yes. how do you eat, then, all day long? >> i can poke a straw through the cage. and i drink the jamba juice. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: oh, okay. but couldn't you -- couldn't you stick a cigarette in the end of the straw and put the other end in your mouth and smoke? kind of an extension thing? >> what? >> jimmy: i mean, couldn't you just use the straw to suck the -- to draw the smoke from the cigarette like you did with the jamba juice? >> that's not a bad idea. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i didn't -- >> okay.

[ cheers and applause ] [ sally ] my antidepressant worked hard to help with my depression. but sometimes, i still struggled to get going, even get through the day. so i was honest with my doctor. i told her i'd been feeling stuck for a long time. she said that for some people, an antidepressant alone only helps so much and suggested we add abilify (aripiprazole). she said that by taking both, some people had symptom improvement as early as 1 to 2 weeks. i wish i'd talked to my doctor sooner. [ female announcer ] abilify is not for everyone. call your doctor if your depression worsens or you have unusual changes in behavior, or thoughts of suicide. antidepressants can increase these in children, teens and young adults.

elderly dementia patients taking abilify have an increased risk of death or stroke. call your doctor if you have high fever, stiff muscles and confusion to address a possible life-threatening condition. or if you have uncontrollable muscle movements, as these could become permanent. high blood sugar has been reported with abilify and medicines like it and in extreme cases can lead to coma or death. other risks include increased cholesterol, weight gain, decreases in white blood cells, which can be serious, dizziness on standing, seizures, trouble swallowing, and impaired judgment or motor skills.

[ cheers ] >> jimmy: you probably have a lot of young ladies in booths and whatnot. >> if you say so. >> jimmy: do women throw themselves at you? i mean, how aggressive are they with you? >> throwing themselves is a little bit aggressive. but you know, normally falling

over and i'll catch them, you know, in the subway. >> jimmy: how many phone numbers are handed to you throughout the course of a month? >> zero. >> jimmy: really? >> literally. i don't get any phone numbers. but you know, on twitter and facebook i get a lot of proposals. wedding proposals. >> jimmy: you do? >> will you marry me and stuff like that. >> jimmy: do you marry any of them? >> about eight. i married about eight last year. >> jimmy: i wonder if that ever works, where you make a marriage proposal and someone says yes, i indeed would like to marry you. >> what if you saw someone that was like really -- will you marry me? yes, i would. jrnt >> jimmy: i think that happens. you were a wedding dj, speaking about marriage. don't worry about that. [ laughter ] you were a wedding -- i was a wedding dj as well. when were you a wedding -- how old were you? >> i was literally about 14, 15. my uncle was a wedding dj. and i used to go with him, lift the record boxes, you know, wire out the speakers for him and all that. >> jimmy: carrying the records, it makes me so angry now, these

guys with their little ipods and the computers and they have all the songs in there. i had crates of records that i carried everywhere i went. >> yeah. i had about eight crates. and now this guy comes with the usb, where do i go? >> jimmy: yeah. it is really maddening. >> do you know what happened to me the other day? i'm promoting "pack rim." i'm in london. i'm on this tv show. it's a live tv show. and what they've done, they've connected with this wedding, an actual wedding, this couple's getting married, and the couple were a big fan of mine. they don't know they're live on tv. all right? what they said to me is you're going to pick their first wedding song. you're a wedding dj 37 you're going to pick their first wedding song. so i'm like, cool. we're sitting in the audience and we're watching them at the wedding. and they're having a good time. nice couple. and so boom, they cut to me live in the studio. they go, hey, your favorite actor, idris elba, is going to choose your favorite song. idris, how are you feeling? i'm going, hey, what's up? how are you doing, guys?

meanwhile, i chose "could you be loved?" by bob marley. but it's a studio audience, so i decided to be funny. i didn't know i was live in their wedding. i didn't know they could see me. so they said what are you going to play? i said, oh, i've got a great song. "i love big butts. i cannot lie." and the presenter was like, what? i couldn't understand what was going on. then i said no, i'm only joking. we're going to -- "could you be loved?" but it turns out the guy had a big butt and so it was a bit awkward. >> jimmy: oh, that worked out perfectly. [ laughter ] you were also a radio dj. a pirate -- like a real pirate radio -- because we in the united states, we have a couple of pirate radios but most of them are pretending to be pirate radio stations. but you were one of these stations that would broadcast illegally. from where did you broadcast? >> they used to put the pirate radios in like high-rises because that's where the aerials could go.ally go out to the top of the 25th floor and you know, you'd dj there. they'd have a whole setup there. if you'd get caught, you'd have

to run, leave everything you could and just get out there have. >> did you ever get raided? >> no, man. >> jimmy: you didn't. were you ready to go at all times? >> i lovedman. i loved doing the radio. i used to -- you do the prank. i used to dot prank calls. >> jimmy: oh, did you? >> yeah. i used to call up chinese restaurants and order jamaican food. yeah, i'd like some curried goat, man. oh, we have curry but we don't have goat. >> jimmy: it's funny all around the world. i think chinese restaurants are the most pranked established no matter where you are. it's the first number you dial when you're -- you did that for a long time. and then you wound up -- then you got into acting from -- as a result of that? >> well, no. when i was on the pirate radio, i was at school and at school i was in drama. and when i left school, the only a-plus i got was in drama. so i decided to be an actor. >> jimmy: and is drama -- like drama class in the united states, like in high school, is kind of like -- it's more of a

club. you don't take it -- at least where i went to school it wasn't take thaen serion that seriousl. in england was it taken seriously? >> yeah. it was a serious class. you had to be graded. i had a beautiful drama teacher, though. >> jimmy: that helps. did you make love to her? [ laughter ] >> in my head about 100 times. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: and you were involved in some kind of -- the prince charles -- >> yeah, the prince charles -- >> jimmy: -- scholarship. >> so after i left i decided i wanted to be an actor and i wanted to be in the national youth music theater. and you had to pay like 2,000 as a sort of token to get in. and i couldn't afford it. my parents couldn't afford it. so i applied for the prince's trust thing. and he gave me 2,000. you had to autd igs adition and me 2,000 pounds and i got in. now i'm a prince's trust ambassador. >> jimmy: oh, wow. sow work for his organization. >> oh, yeah. prince charles. has anyone met prince charles? >> jimmy: we all have.

[ laughter ] >> he's the coolest -- >> jimmy: is he really? >> smooth. >> jimmy: he's smooth? >> he's got like this ring. he's got the slicked-back hair. he looks like a gangster. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: maybe in england he looks like a gangster, but not around here. [ laughter ] now, this movie i want to mention the great guillermo del toro directed this film. it's like a fun old-timy almost monster movie. >> yeah. >> jimmy: sxr you are against the monsters. >> yeah. i pay stacker pentacos who's this -- >> jimmy: stacker pentacos. that's a great name. >> it's a great name. i'm this really serious old army type dude, he's in the middle of the whole film. i'm pretty much -- everyone comes to me and i point them off in different directions. >> jimmy: well, i can't wait to see it. i'm told you should see it in imax, that is the key. >> yeah. like you know, in theaters now we spend a lot of money in theaters. you go. you've got the ticket, the popcorn. you get to the movie and sometimes you're like that wasn't really worth the movie.

this is worth the money because it's so visceral. it's so well done. the actors are really good. thank you very much. [ laughter [ laughter ] i'm joking. >> jimmy: idris elba. "pacific rim" is the movie. it opens this friday. we'll be right back with music from rhye. [ cheers and applause ]
