and now abc's "jimmy kimmel live"! >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, sir elton john, and comedian whitney cummings. with cleto and the cletones. and now, stay right where you

[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: hi, everyone, i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thanks for coming. i'm glad we're all here, i'll tell you. you know who else is here tonight. the great and powerful elton john is here. [ cheers and applause ] elton john has more hits and more pairs of glasses than any other recording artist. you know, years ago you probably know elton wrote a song for me. he said i could tell everybody, it was my song. it was aboutow wonderful the life is since i'm in the world. very sweet. guillermo, what's youralall-time favorite elton john song, number one elton john song of all-time? >> guillermo: tiny -- tiny dancer. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: very good.

also tonight, very funny woman, whitney cummings is here witith us. a special on hbo coming out this weekend. i would love to see whitney as the new bachelorette, wouldn't that be a fun thing? [ cheers and applause ] there isn't as much crying on "the bachelorette" as there is "the bachelor" which makes it not as much fun. i think whitney would solve that. tonight was "bachelor" night on abc, quite an episode. "the bachelor" is like a reality show version of "the hobbit." everne is on a mission to get the ring. and along the way many of these pilgririms becom insane. much of the drama on toght's show centered on olivia, who's the local news anchor from austin. she appears to be among the favorites to win ben's heart. some of the other women were talking about eolivia herein their back, making fun of her boobs, her feet and her breath. so jamie, another contestant,

bachelor contestant would do, she got hold of olivia just to make sure she heard what all the terrible things the gals were saying. >> what were they saying? >> they started like picking apart -- like some of your like -- appearances. it's like stupid -- >> can i get? kankles. >> no. like tiny stupid -- talking about like your toes. >> my toes? >> i'm like -- >> i don't think -- >> jimmy: that is not right. [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> jimmy: you don't talk about another woman's toes. olivia gets the shocking toe news. and then this is where she really hits it out of the park. later on, b comes in to share some very bad personal ws. and -- no, not a whoo. pay attention to how olivia responds. >> i got a phone call this

two people who are close to my family passed abay in a plane crash last night. these tw people have been llars of my community back me since i was little. >> can i grab you? and talk to you? i'll lead the way. so, you know, everyone has things on their body that they just like wish they could change or things -- and like mine, waist-down, i hate my legs. i hate them. like peopleave wrien blogs that i have kankles. sorry. trying to be strong all the time. this is the scariest thing ever. >> jimmy: it is. she tries to be strong. [ applause ] >> jimmy: it's the scariest thing ever. okay. now back to your friends that died. who were they again? then what made the whole thing even crazier, ben gave her a rose.

just like that. it's inspirational. i really believe dr. martin luther king would have approved of this. meanwhile there's always at least one nut on the show. this season her name is lace. even if you don't watch "the bachelor" you know immediately hot crazy one is because some kind of haunted circus music plays b behind h every time she talks. tonight lace had been with the words no bachelor ever wants to hear. >> ben, can i talk to you for a second? >> jimmy: "can i talk to you for a second?" never good. not from a doctor, not from your boss, not from one of the bachelorette. >> i just feel like going home might be easier. and maybe just continue working on myself. and trying to better myself. because you can't love someone else until you truly love yourself. >> jimmy: any sentence that begins with "like my tattoo says."

[ cheers and applause ] i know that's what the tattoo on your back says. but what does the dolphin on your ankle think? so lace eliminated heard, she went home. but she's definitely going to be on "bachelor in paradise." that is a guarantee. meanwhile the bachelor, before an nba game, got a mention from none other than charles barkley. >> kobe bryant will play for the lakers his last trip to oakland and they are going to try to snap golden state's winning streak at home. they have won 36 i a row -- >> they got no chance. >> 18-0. >> they're like the black girl [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: he was right. lakers went home crying in a limo. last night from charleston, south carolina, the democratic presidential debate between hillary clinton, bernie sanders, and an unidentified man on the side, i'm told his name is martin o'mally. if the democratic candidates

would be this guy. he look is familiar but -- can't really -- you know what i'm saying? last night martin o'mally looked like the kid forced to choose hearing. which is very sad are because you know, he's a middle-aged white guy, nice head of hair. 10 years ago they would have just handed him the nomination. now he's like the attractive older man sitting in the outdoor tub during an erectile dysfunction -- [ applause ] >> jimmy: it wasn't a bendly debate. bernie and hillary went at it. watch this look bernie gives hillary. >> president obama has led our country out of the great recession. senator sanders called him weak, disappointing. he even in 2011 -- >> jimmy: let's see that again in slow motion. he's like, what the? [ laughter ] [ applause ]

a little extra poison. in a sense the debate was a victory for bernie sanders. in that he made it through the whole thing without dying. meanwhile in london, the british parliament today actually had a debate on whether or not to ban donald trump from the country, for real. more than half a million people of great britain signed a petition demanding the government ban donald trump fromm entering. so today lawmakers there -- [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: -- put that up for debate. > this ridiculous individual that is mr. trump -- [ laughter ] >> who may be elected as president of the united states -- >> donald trump is a fool. he i free to be a fool. he is not free to be a dangerous fool on our shores. >> you don't need a crystal ball to recognize that the person you're dealing with may be a successful businessman, is also a buffoon. buffoonery.

this debate about buffoonery. you've referred to mr. trump's buffoonery. >> donald trump is an idea. >> this man is crazy. >> donald trump as buffoon. >> jimmy: a buffoon! and a waz zit. whats a wazzit? i've never hrd of it before. maybe i'll ask elton john what it means, i have no idea. there you go, we're spreading fun all over the world now. todays the day on which we honor the life of dr. martin luther king jr., who was a great man, no doubt. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: did brave and noboble things. any fifth grader will tell you all you need to know about martin luther king but adults sometimes have a tendency to forget things. today we went on the street and asked people what they thought aboutt martin luther king endorsing donald trump for president. obviously that didn't happen. but that didn't stop number of individuals from weighing in in

witness news." >> dr. martin luther king jr. this morning came out endorsing donald trump for president. what was your reaction to that? >> he's don't. i on be a little nervous. i'd think he'd be the last one to endorse trump. >> what do you think about dr. martrtin lutheking jr. endorsing dold trump for president? >> i figure if he's going to endorse donald trump for president, then maybe he thinks that he'll be a good president, his opinion. >> were you surprised that martin luther king jr. endorse donald trump even though he got kicked off "celebrity apprentice" last year? >> oh, yes. i would be surprised but you've got to do what's better -- you know, the richre going to support the rich. and they got to know how to take care of their money. because if donald trump being the money man he is will take care of their money -- sup tmz!

that dr. martin luther king jr. never once voted for barack obama? >> actually -- i am. >> why is that? >> i am surprised. you would think because of a minority he'd want to vote for mr. obama himself. >> but the whole being deceased and not being able to get out to vote -- >> which is true. >> dyou think martin luther king endorsing donald trump was a reaction to malcolm x endorsing hillary clinton? >> well, malcolm x and hillary clinton, from martha's vineyard, they both -- malcolm x has a home on martha's vinineyard so they vacatioion --- they waterski together? >> yeah, they vacation, they martha's vineyard. yes, my brother lives o on martha's vineyard. >> does he seeee malcolm x out there walking around? >> i've never seen him, my brother has, yeahah. >> anything you want to say to dr. martin luther king jr. on his big way? >> congratulations, martin luther king if you support donald trump

if he's going tooake this a better nation for us to live under, you've got my suppo too. let's make this one nation under god, all the power in the world to you. so this is what we got to do for our country. >> let'sring the chargrgers in and keep the mexicans out. >> no, no, no, no, hey! [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause >> jimmy: we're going to take a break. save ourselves. when we come back, we're going to play "foreigner or not." stick around, we'll be right back!
