floo plus music from pitbull and ne-yo. with cleto and the cletones. and now, one last thing -- here's jimmy kimmel! ♪ it's "jimmy kimmel live" [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that's very nice. thank you. thank you, i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. appreciate you coming. thank you for watching at home. and this is -- very nice of you.

and a happy holiday week to everyone. this is a -- it still is a big night for our television network tonight. it was a nightle of dancing, a night of stars, the 19th, if you can believe it, "dancing with the stars" concluded tonight here on abc. and now they're done, they're out of stars. that's it. next season -- [ cheers and applause ] i think they're going to hire famous animals to dance on the show next week. the reason i mentioned this is because every year at the beginning of the season, before the dancing even begins, i bet $1,000 on someone to win. i pick a star, i put real money on it. they start with 13 dancers. i select one of those dancers. and so far, i have picked the winner correctly 7 out of 14 times. which is -- if you know anything about gambling, is incredible. if i did this well betting on football, i'd be -- [ applause ] i'd be retired right now, but -- and who did i choose this year? well, let's go back to the tape dated september 15th, 2014.

all right, guillermo, show the world who i picked, please read the winner of "dancing with the stars." is? >> alfonso ribeiro. >> jimmy: that is right. alfonso ribeiro. and who got eight perfect tens in the finals last night? none other than alfonso ribeiro! [ applause ] and that -- that is why they call me nostra-dancemus. if all goes well, i'll be doing the carlton dance all the way to the bank tomorrow. that's what thanksgiving is all about. are you excited for and/or dreading thanksgiving? thanksgiving is -- [ applause ] that unique magical time of the year where your whole family gets together to talk about what hbo shows they watch. and that's the best case scenario. this is interesting. the festival that we call the first thanksgiving lasted three days.

not one day. and there's some evidence now that suggested native americans, the ones who sat down to eat with the pilgrims, contrary to folk lore, were not actually invited to the dinner. they got wind of a gathering and just showed up. [ laughter ] which means the pilgrims were the first people in america to say, ah, sure, yeah, come in, yeah. [ laughter ] if you are looking to have a luxurious thanksgiving feast this year, there's a restaurant in new york called old homestead, that is offering a $35,000 thanksgiving dinner for four. for real. they're offering three of these meals. they have already sold two of them. let me tell you something. for $35,000, that turkey had better be stuffed with warren buffett, because -- [ laughter ] the dinner -- it's not just a dinner. [ applause ] it comes with a number of things including $6,000 blooming dales shopping spree, which sounds delicious. you know -- [ laughter ] this is a free country. if you want to spend $35,000 on

a meal for four people, you should be allowed to do. that but you should also be forced to have a homeless veteran sitting at your table, just watching you eat. [ applause ] right? many americans will spend thanksgiving in parking lots this year waiting in line for black friday deals. several stores are opening early this season. sears announced they're going to open their doors to shoppers at 6:00 p.m. on thanksgiving day, which is big news. not that they're opening early. the big news is that there is still a sears. [ laughter ] with doors. macy's and kohl's will open at 6:00. jcpenney is opening at 5:00. not to be outdone, kmart plans to open at 6:00 a.m. and remain open for 42 hours straight. i guess they felt their employ yeels weren't depressed enough. some stores like costco and tjmaxx have vowed to remain closed on thanksgiving and i

applaud them. [ applause ] you can't just skip over thanksgiving to get to christmas. some people just don't care about thanksgiving. i don't understand it. the whole idea of black friday combined my three least favorite things. camping, shopping and waiting in line. [ laughter ] as a rule, if you've only ever used your tent to sleep in a best buy parking lot -- [ laughter ] you should be banned from all national parks. you should not be allowed into yosemite. [ applause ] no yellowstone. nothing. here's the deal that probably won't attract a lot of black friday shoppers. christian loboutin, you know this guy? i guess it's a guy. i don't know. could be a mystical figure like orville redenbacher, for all i know. he or it just released a new limited edition nail polish that costs $675. for a little bottle of nail

poli polish. is that a lot for nail polish? i've never bought it. the polish -- it's called starlight and it's the same shade of red you find on the bottom of the shoes. now, i cannot imagine spending this much money on nail polish. i don't care whose name is on it, but some people will. so, what we did today is, we sent a camera to rodeo drive in beverly hills to ask people what they thought about this new nail polish. instead of spending $675, we bought a bottle of nail polish at the drugstore for five bucks. we told them it was christian louboutin, and here's what they told us. >> so, today we have christian louboutin's limited edition nail polish. retails at $675. we're happy to give you a look at it today. take a look. what do you love about it? >> it's a nice -- it's a darker than, like, that bright cherry red color.

so, that's a little bit more classy about it. it definitely looks like the bottom of the heel, which is lovely. >> what about this nail polish sets it apart from what you might find at a drugstore? >> looks like it has a good brush, go on smoothly. pretty good consistency. not too thick, not too thin. >> i think i could go with a second coat, but if i did only one coat, it's still very intense and bright. >> and you just can't get that from a drugstore. >> no, no, that's for sure. >> can you tell that it has that luxe -- >> yes, oh, my gosh. i feel like i'm wearing shoes on my nails. >> can you open it and tell me what about this costs that $675 price tag? >> wow. >> put it on my hand. >> oh, my god, it's so nice. >> you can tell you. you don't have to put a bunch of layers on it. >> do you think anyone could come up with that color? think louboutin could come up with the color. this is their signature red

color. >> yes, it is. looks like it matches our sash. >> yeah, it is. >> one more question. how could we fix the ebola crisis in west africa? >> tough question. >> i think that maybe -- we could help each other out by giving more vaccines over there and getting more medical staff and to help people here, maybe have certain flights that aren't necessarily coming over. >> i completely agree. i think i read somewhere that it was spread by, like, i think it's like each other's spit or saliva and i think just to stop it from spread egg, they don't need to be touching each other. they need to make sure they are always protected and, like she did. >> yeah, i definitely agree. >> great. and just tell me again how much you love the nail polish. >> i love it. on a scale of 1 to 10 -- 100. >> jimmy: thank you, ladies.

[ applause ] it's the 'emperor's new nail polish. this is something that aired on television here. this is -- there's a spanish language talk show, i think it's a national show, but they tape it here. and you are not going to believe who they got as a guest on this show. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: can i ask you just a quick question? >> yeah. >> jimmy: what -- what the hell was going on there? why was a clown asking you questions about sex? >> i think he's drunk. [ laughter ]

>> jimmy: maybe you can explain this, too. [ speaking foreign language ] >> jimmy: you naughty, naughty girl. [ applause ] >> in his face. >> jimmy: you worked here 11 years, you haven't thrown your underwear in my face once. >> no, never, never. >> jimmy: thank you, guillermo. >> i respect you. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: you don't respect the clown? >> no. >> jimmy: you have to respect the clown. you really do. >> no. >> jimmy: all right. the food and drug administration, this is -- i

find this interesting. they published some new rules today that will require chain restaurants and other food-related businesses to post calorie counts for everything they sell. calorie counts will be posted on everything from beer at restaurants to popcorn at the movies. it's all part of a government initiative to make fat people even sadder. [ laughter ] the fda is requiring vend mag sheens to list calories on them if you are eating from a vending machine, it is safe to assume that nutrition is not among your top priorities. [ laughter ] you burn a lot of calories shaking those, trying to get the twix bar. but you know they say you should never meet your heroes? you could also never find out how many calories are in the pizza you love. that's just my way of thinking. it's called blissful ignorance. this is pretty good. yesterday here in l.a., there was a high speed chase. i don't know how it works in other cities, but here, when there's a high speed chase, every tv station drom drop wha

they're doing to cover it live. at one point, the suspect in this chase fled his vehicle on foot, which led to this report from the sky 5 helicopter on ktla. >> one in custody at least, yeah. okay, guys, it looks like we have at least one in custody here and a second suspect here is in the wash, running, and so -- it looks like the police department is aware. is this a jogger or a suspect? we don't know at this point for sure. but -- this could be a jogger. yeah. >> jimmy: it was a jogger. [ cheers and applause ] it's neither a jogger or a criminal wearing a fit bit. [ laughter ] good idea, though. if you are going to commit a crime, do it in jogging shorts. this might surprise you. this definitely surprised me. forbes released another one of

their lists of the highest earning this or that. this one was the highest earning celebrities under 30 years old. any guess as to who was on top, which young and incredibly wealthy person -- justin bieber was the -- justin bieber earned $80 million. between june of 2013 and june of this year. which is very bad news to get on the week when we're supposed to be thankful. [ laughter ] nine of the top earners were musicians. jennifer lawrence was the only one who wasn't. one direction was second. they earned $75 million. taylor swift was in third with $64 million. and if she goes through another breakup this year, they're saying that number could double. justin bieber made more than anyone. he made his money from a combination of concert appearances, record sales and, of course, his allowance, which he gets every week. [ laughter ] $80 million in a year is -- a lot. but it just goes to show you that money can not buy you happiness or a decent mustache. [ laughter ]

but he's a very thankful young man. there's no doubt about that. and one of the things that thanksgiving is lacking in my opinion, is music there are so many christmas songs. literally thousands and thousands of christmas songs, but i think the closest thing we have to a song for thanksgiving is the theme from "the golden girls." and that, to me, is unacceptable. fortunately, though, very talented young artist is hoping to fill that gap. you know the song "all about that bass?" all that? that's a song by megan traynor. and tom, i'm pleased to premier her brand new album of what i believe will soon be considered thanksgiving holiday classics. here now is megan traynor capturing the true spirit of thanksgiving. >> thanksgiving. a time for food, family and friends. and now, megan traynor brings you music to celebrate, with th "thanksgiving carols." ♪ my flight got canceled in

[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: how are you, man? very good to see you. may i ask you a fashion question? i feel like i'm out of style. are we not wearing builts anymore? >> i got -- the most difficult part of this journey walking was that final sitdown, like -- so worried my pants are going to rip. >> jimmy: how are you doing? >> going to be a lot of robotic movement. >> jimmy: the last time you were here, you were about to go to new zealand with your dad, right? >> yeah, i went -- i did a film on the south island, which is beautiful. like a big national park.

and i grew up fly fishing with my dad, a little bit, not, you know, not really well, but up in montana. >> jimmy: one thing about guys that fly fish and i'm one of them, every time they say fly fishing, they do the action. >> that thing? >> jimmy: i grew up fly fishing. it's a weird thing. if we did that when we talked about masturbating, it would be really -- >> be really awkward. are you good? >> jimmy: i'm not good, but i'm competent. >> can you tie your own flies? >> jimmy: not really. i can tie them on. but i don't actually create them. do you do that? >> oh, my gosh. >> jimmy: you're too handsome to do that. >> not adept that way. but we hired a guide, because where we were in new zealand is like renowned for its great fly fishing. and so i -- in my youth, i caught one fish with my father. >> jimmy: oh really? >> a rainbow trout, it was that big and he was very supportive. and we talk about it a lot, so, you know, as an adult now, we

really wanted to make our mark on the sport of fly fishing. i brought him down, we took a helicopter ride. i organized the whole thing. we went out, took 20 minutes, we're in the depths of -- of, you know, the field lgs outside of queenstown. there are icebergs next to us. it's so stunning. and we went out there, we were fishing, you know, an hour, two hours goes by and we were guaranteed we would catch fish. >> jimmy: by whom? >> by our japanese scout, okay? the japanese scout. whose confidence slowly just started to fade as the day went on and i would ask, i was like, dad, how are you doing? he's like, great! so much fun! another two hours goes by. angry fly fishing. >> jimmy: you're not letting it go -- >> not graceful. and, you know, the scout --

the -- our guide is like, let me take -- let me go hunt them out for you. they're definitely here. he leads us to the spot where it should happen. sky's getting grayer. no fish. finally he takes both of our fly fishing rods and goes to a dark still pool and puts the rods over the pool with two rocks over the rods and shouts at the fish. [ laughter ] it got very awkward. by the end of the day. >> jimmy: did that work? >> it didn't help. >> jimmy: it didn't. >> surprisingly. >> jimmy: i thought it was a spell he knew, the fish rose and mounted -- >> did nothing but run away. >> jimmy: so your total is still one fish. >> i'm fishless except for that young rainbow trout which i did put back into the -- >> jimmy: you have to put them back. that's right. >> where do you fish? >> jimmy: all over. montana, idaho. >> idaho's big. >> jimmy: you name it, i'll fish

there. i'll fish in the toilet if i get the chance. [ laughter ] i have, like, a practice rod in my office that has yarn attached to it and i just hit the others in my office with it all day long. i cast and i hit and -- >> cast and hit. great. >> jimmy: that's a dream trip, though, new zealand. for you it wasn't. >> really wasn't a dream trip it all. >> jimmy: for those that don't know and i love saying this, your dad was sarge on "c.h.i.p.s. ". >> yeah, yeah, thank you very much. >> jimmy: mine wasn't. mine definitely wasn't. will you spend thanksgiving with the family? >> no, the family has really just brazenly ditched me. >> jimmy: really? >> yeah, as they get older they just don't really care. [ laughter ] just -- they're so excited not to have to wrap gifts for christmas, i can't even tell you. >> jimmy: what are they going to do? >> they're going to be in palm springs. find a pool. >> jimmy: i got you. >> will you cook then? >> i will absolutely not, no. i don't trust myself to do that

at all. >> jimmy: oh. >> i'll have about 15 people over to the house and -- >> jimmy: you will? >> yeah. and host. >> jimmy: friends, not family? >> yeah, friends, orphans. the -- >> jimmy: stragglers. >> sure, yeah. >> jimmy: a couple of them here in the audience tonight that -- [ applause ] they need -- >> i need silverware, i need more extra plates. and you got to stay to clean up because everyone always bolts -- >> jimmy: oh, they do? >> right at the time. >> jimmy: really? your friends are not helpers? >> it's so funny. i got -- we got that extra dinner. >> jimmy: you need new friends. these people will clean everything up. they really will. they're desperate. >> we got another one, too. two in a row. >> jimmy: all right, we're going to take a break. when we come back, we're going to look at the very funny movie "horrible passes 2." chris pine is here.

we'll be right back.

pop and i -- we hit a rough patch lately. he's refusing to cover some of my expenses. >> this is cool and all, but we decided, like, we're out. we're not doing crimes. >> no, he's right. the kidnapping is off, actually. >> huh, no, no, it's on. >> it's off. >> no, it's totally on. i sent the ransom note to my dad. >> you did what? >> yeah. little insulted you only asked for $500,000. i tacked on another zero. >> 500 million? >> wow. >> no.

>> 5 million. >> jimmy: that is chris pine in "horrible bosses 2." so, in this movie, you are a -- i don't want to ruin the movie. you're the son of -- >> i'm the son of christoph waltz and the boys come up with a brilliant idea to create something called the shower buddy, which help you bathe in the shower. you don't have to go through all the rig ma role of getting the soap and doing the whole thing. and, yeah, i don't know how much i can say. >> jimmy: it's funny. the plot is not acceptabessentie enjoyment of the film. >> no. >> jimmy: it's more about the jokes along the way. >> yeah. you know a lot of comedy. >> jimmy: thank you. last time you were here, you sang. i don't -- [ applause ] i have to say, i couldn't believe how well you sing.

>> you scared -- >> jimmy: it made no sense. >> i was scared. >> jimmy: so, now you are in this big musical that's coming up, "into the woods." >> yeah, thank you. yeah, i had really no idea what i was getting into. my agents called me up. they said, would you like to audition for a musical? "into the woods," it sounds great. meryl streep, fantastic. i didn't realize "into the woods" in kind of the pantheon of musicals and theater, it's a big deal. >> jimmy: yes. the only reason i know is because my brother was in it when he was in high school. >> exactly right. >> jimmy: that's the extend. >> it's big in high schools. and, yeah, the first day of rehearsals, thank god the director, rob marshall, built into the process of the film a month of rehearsal, which never happens in film, or very rarely. so, the first day we're all around the table. it's meryl streep, anna kendrick

and just an incredible, incredible cast, tracy ullman, yeah. [ applause ] and it's, you know, the first day where we have to kind of shop our wears and sing in front of everybody and, i mean -- i was just -- i was not breathing. >> jimmy: nervous? >> yeah. >> jimmy: who were you most -- >> meryl streep, of course. >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. >> but she's such a lovely -- she's such a lovely person. because he understands the -- her affect on a room. she knows that she's meryl stre streep. she holds some weight. >> jimmy: and so what did she do to -- >> in this case, we all kind of -- the read through started and she was the first one to screw up. >> jimmy: she's the worst. >> she's the worst. she is. get her an acting coach, fast. [ laughter ] so, she's the first one to kind

of screw up and i remember talking to some of the other cast members. because, once that happened, everybody relaxes and breathes and we can do our thing, because it's like the -- meryl streep is, if she can screw up, then we all can. >> jimmy: i guess so. >> that moment of kind of allows the rest of us to know that it's okay to do that. >> jimmy: you think she did it on purpose? >> i mean, i think so. >> jimmy: you think so? >> i'd like to believe that. >> jimmy: oh. if i ask her, do you think she would say she did it on purpose? maybe she wants to keep it secret? >> yeah. >> jimmy: well, i can't wait to see that. i have to say, your voice is enchanting and -- >> thank you. >> jimmy: it's very good to see y you. chris pine, everybody. go see him in "horrible bosses 2." it opens in theaters tomorrow. we'll be right back. ♪ music the volkswagen golf was just named motor trend's 2015 car of the year.

[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: is this -- is this from the book? >> i love it. >> jimmy: what the hell are you wearing? >> you don't like it? >> jimmy: it's cute. it's adorable.

[ cheers and applause ] is this -- >> this is my squicker outfit. >> jimmy: this is the book you wrote. i didn't know that was something you were interested in doing. >> where have you been? i have talking about becoming a writer for decades. >> jimmy: you never told me. >> you're not in the loop, jimmy. >> jimmy: i guess i'm not. >> i wrote this story when i was 14. >> jimmy: oh, really? >> when i was 14 years old. >> jimmy: was it like a school project or something? >> no, i was just that loaner who sat in my bedroom by myself and wrote stories for fun. >> jimmy: i see. you remembered this story, did you tell your parents and share? >> i told my mom at the time and she was like, honey, you should publish that. that's really quite good. and i was 14, so i didn't know anything about publishing.

and my mom thought everything i did was quite good. i carried around the piece of paper. i didn't have a computer. this is when the dinosaurs roamed the earth. i kept it, like, i kept the piece of paper. i carried it around with me. >> jimmy: why did you carry it around? why not put it in a drawer or something? [ laughter ] this is the whole story on the piece of paper? >> yeah, except, except, you remember when i was on your show all that time ago, i swear to god, a decade ago, and my house burned down, do you remember that? >> jimmy: yes. i burned it down. i figured it would be a fun anecdo anecdote. >> the piece of paper burned in the fire. but miraculously, the only thing i retrieved from the fire was my passport and a backup hard drive that had the story on it. >> jimmy: thank goodness. wow. it's almost like you had to do it then.

how old is your son now? >> he's 3 1/2. >> jimmy: you must have read him the story. does he enjoy the story? >> can i show you his favorite part of the book? he loves this story. everyone says it's 5 to 8-year-olds. i say it's for everyone. he's 3, he loves it. i'm 35, i love it. >> jimmy: what is his favorite part? >> this is his favorite part of the book, so, at the end of the book, something horrific happens to this beautiful, cute little girl. >> jimmy: oilespoiler alert. >> and then, this page is like the dun-dun-dun of her fate. and my son every time, he goes, she got rocked! he gets locked in his room all the time for doing bad things. >> jimmy: he does. that's what you do? you lock him in the room? >> he loves it. >> jimmy: locking them in the room doesn't really work. >> you have never seen our house, have you? so, we lock him in his room and

if he enjoys himself a little bit too much, all of the contents of his bedroom end up in the hallway and his door gets locked. >> jimmy: oh, all right. >> come on. and i do it all in this costume. it's really freaky. >> jimmy: it sounds kind of like jabber wok key. >> thank you. this is kind of mad hatter, isn't it? >> jimmy: i think so. you have some of that going there. peter jackson, who directed you in "the hobbit" wrote your forewo foreword. that's a good deal. >> yeah. >> jimmy: i thought you were retiring from acting. you decided to go off and eat grub worms and stuff like that. >> i did. i did retire. it's just that peter, god bless him, he called me up in the midst of my blissful retirement and said, would you like to play your favorite character in your favorite childhood book of all-time. >> jimmy: and how do you say no

to that? >> exactly. >> jimmy: you are also in the "antman" movie what is your excuse for that? [ laughter ] i'm excited about that. >> i have a hands down nobody can dispute this excuse. paul rudd's playing the lead. >> jimmy: i see. so, your retirement is what we could call conditional. >> it's very conditional. >> jimmy: that's some retirement, by the way. this is like cher's retirement. you keep coming back over and over. >> any retirement involves an overcommitment issue. i commit to very big projects. this is no exception. i plan on making 18 books in this series. >> jimmy: 18 books? peter jackson really is rubbing off on you. [ laughter ] 18 books. how do you settle on that number? 12 wouldn't be enough? 18. >> no, it has to be 18. there's going to be nine that are the demise, the demise series and nine that are the origins, the origins series. >> jimmy: i see. when you do a book signing, do

little kids come out? is it for kids or is it adults or what's your -- what group is coming to see you? >> i hope for children every time. >> jimmy: and yet? >> i wish for children all the time. i tell the story, as if i'm reading to little children and i'm very an mated and i wear costumes and it's a crowd of "lost" fans. >> jimmy: that's what i figured. [ laughter ] oh, the smoke monster, in episode 84 -- [ laughter ] i want to talk about the book! >> come on. >> jimmy: you should work a smoke monster in. >> or a hatch. maybe a hatch. i can throw a hatch in there. >> jimmy: it's very good to see you. you got 17 more books ahead of you. you better get to work. this is some retirement. evangeline lilly, everybody. this is her book. buy it for your kids. we'll be right back with pitbull and ne-yo. it's this mythical place we talk about

even though now in pennsylvania we have casinos it's still... there's ac. we're from pittsburgh. no boardwalk. no beach. no sand. it's beautiful twelve months out of the year. it's just a state of mind, it really is. you can't get this feeling anywhere. the ocean breeze and... the beach, the boardwalk, the restaurants, the casinos, music. you feel like you're on vacation when you come here. as a toddler, i enjoy three activities. breaking things...

spilling things... and just general destruction, in the abstract sense. so i, for one, am not a big fan of nest. you see, the dropcam is always watching... even when my folks are in another room. i rue the day that this product was invented. but i'm not 100% sure what rue means. nest dropcam. welcome to a more thoughtful
