now for the entire "action news" team, i'm jim gardner. good night. >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- sarah jessica parker. from "black-ish," daveed diggs. and music from dan and shay. and now, and why not -- here's jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: very nice. i'm jimmy. i'm the host. thank you for watching. thank you for coming. i don't want to spoil the mood but here's a warning. on do any of you go online? oh, good.

it's a tech-savvy group. then you probably who in you search for them online you're most at risk for getting a virus or malware or the mumps. this year the most dangerous celebrity to search is amy schumer. justin bieber is number two. and number three is carson daly. which a lot of -- i know carson, i tell you something, once we were at a restaurant, there was no ketchup on the table, he murdered the waiter. [ laughter ] this was at brunch. he's a dangerous guy. last year i was the 26th most dangerous. before that, in 2014, i was number one. i was the number one most dangerous. this year i've plummeted to number 32. which is still a dangerous number. that was o.j.'s number. [ laughter ] the sad fact is i'm not as

dangerous as i used to be. guillermo, do you still feel like i'm dangerous? >> guillermo: yeah, jimmy. especially when you don't eat anything all day. >> jimmy: especially when i don't eat. anyway. donald trump got some bad news today too. according to "forbes" magazine, donald trump's wealth is down $800 million from last year. he's only worth $3.7 billion now. and i'll tell you something, mexico is going to pay for it. [ laughter ] but the good news is, while his net worth may be down, his self-worth is at an all-time high. [ laughter ] trump was in florida last night. today he was in chicago, iowa, and wisconsin. and with all this racing around ranting and raving, we like to help donald slow down. we did just la for tonight's edition of "drunk donald trump." [ tape playing very slow ] >> see that plane? see that plane?

that plane was built in america. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: yesterday, in case you didn't know, was national register to vote day. . did any of you see that video katy perry made? she gets naked and tells people to register to vote. it got like 6 million views already. hopefully it encouraged people to sign up. but here's the thing. why does katy perry have to get naked to get us to register to vote? i mean, don't get me wrong, it's nice of her to do it, i'm not against it. [ laughter ] katy perry getting naked for any reason. but anyone who needs katy perry to take her shirt off in order to register to vote should not be allowed to register to vote. and what if the strategy works? what if it's effective and millions of people do vote because of katy perry's breasts? what will they do next time to get our attention? next, in 2020, if you register to vote, ariana grande will give

you a [ bleep ]. [ drumroll ] >> jimmy: are we allowed to say -- i guess we'll find out. everybody line up one at a time! and listen, when you get to the front of the line, have your pants down because ariana has a -- voting is not something you should have to be sexually excited to do. it's our responsibility as americans to register to vote, to go to our local polling place, and make a choice between two people nobody can believe are our only available options. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] i feel like we're maybe one or two elections away from having our next president come from the ufc. [ laughter ] if you thought the debate was free-wheeling, the ufc had a press conference yesterday to promote, they're having their first-ever fight in new york city, ufc 205, conor mcgregor

versus eddie alvarez. conner took a question from the crowd and this is part of the reason why the ufc is more popular than boxing. >> take a look around you. you've got a lot of champions, grizzled vets. who do you think would give you the hardest fight of anybody on stage? >> right here. the hardest-hitting 145'er right here. this guy, when i knock people out, they don't [ bleep ] move. >> who the [ bleep ] is that guy? >> jimmy: it's a good question. that would be a debate. meanwhile, here in california we have a couple of new laws on the way or potentially on the way. governor jerry brown just signed a bill that will require websites like imdb, which provides information about movies and tv shows, to delete an actor's age if the actor requests it. imdb will no longer be allowed to include an actor's age as part of their biography. which is great news for people

who have never heard of wikipedia where you can get that position immediately. [ laughter ] what an important new law! i'm glad actors can now have their lawyers remove their ages from imdb. until now all they've been able to do is have their doctors remove it from their faces. [ laughter ] there's a proposition on the ballot here in california, prop 60, that will require adult film actors to wear condoms. i assume this only applies to the men. to the male? is this a -- that's a sexist thing, the women don't have to wear condoms, why should the men? if the proposition passes, producers say it will chase business out of the state and cost the porn industry millions and millions of dollars. how does the porn industry still make millions and millions of dollars? as far as i know, no one has paid for porn since 2006. [ laughter ] it's free now. and i will add this. for those who are upset, haven't

we stockpiled enough condom-free porn to last, i don't know, a few hundred thousand more years? it's a weird law. if it passes how are they going to enforce it? will somebody have to monitor? i would give that job to meter maids, to the parking people. they're very hands-on. they're on top of it. this is an exciting time to live in california. november 8th we get to vote on porn stars and pot. we might as well change the state flag to a no fear tank top, we really should. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] california is more prone to earthquakes than any other state. you have to be prepared. if you really want to be prepared and you have $6,000 laying around, you might want to invest in one of these. ♪ ♪

angry, she yells. >> guillermo: and crazy too. >> jimmy: crazy too. so we decided we wanted to help her learn to relax. so cousin sal, guillermo, and our pal yehya and i took her to a class where they teach meditation. here's how that went. >> everything requires stairs. doesn't anybody know what an elevator looks like? >> jimmy: aunt chippy's already mad. >> does anybody have an escalator in their building? >> jimmy: she doesn't like stairs. she gets very upset. >> everything in california is uphill. even downhill is uphill. >> guillermo: it's good for you. >> jimmy: you see why we're here? >> yes. >> jimmy: this woman is stressed, right? >> we're going to come in, learn meditation, center in the breath, calm ourselves. >> jimmy: all right, let's try it. come on let's have open minds here. >> when i first met the students i was a little nervous. because they all came in a group. and i was aware that there would

be camaraderie. and they might have a hard time sitting still. >> i weigh almost 200 pounds, you want me to sit like that? i can't even get down. >> i cannot move my leg like you, is okay? >> that's fine. in meditation we choose a focal point. in choosing that focal point, we calm our system down. think of meditation as the ocean. right? deeper and deeper within sun's self. >> you know andy? >> andy? >> the india guy, you remember the guy gandhi? >> gandhi, yeah. >> you've been with gandhi? >> jimmy: what? >> gandhi, the india guy. he's very famous. >> jimmy: i know, i know. >> the guy, what's his name, he make the movie "gandhi"? >> jimmy: ben kingsley. >> i got picture with him, he got with me, very nice guy. he did the movie in morocco. >> jimmy: what movie does this

i was taken with how observant chippy was. i really felt that she was hyper-observant. she didn't need to voice all of her observations, but the fact that she noticed them is step one to meditation. so when we're communicating we want to use eye language. instead of saying, you did this, you did that, we want to say, i feel this way when. >> jimmy: i think you ar loudmouth. like that kind of thing. >> i think you're a [ bleep ]. >> jimmy: is that right? >> is it working? >> sal: i think your eyelash is going to fly off. >> so let's close our eyes. >> jimmy: oh, yeah, right. we're supposed to -- >> go back. >> jimmy: okay. >> you want to breathe. in and out. >> guillermo: that's what i want, in and out. >> if i start drooling will you please wipe my mouth? >> yeah. >> jimmy: do you make meditation tapes? because my aunt chippy is

available for voice-over work if you need someone with a soothing, melliflulous -- >> melodious. >> why don't we focus on something that brings you joy and happiness. >> smacking them in the head brings me a little joy. smack the crap out of these two kids. >> jimmy: that's a good question. have you ever enjoyed a sunset? be honest. >> yes. your uncle went to hawaii and left me home. and brought me a video of the sunset. he spent -- freaking nuts, you crazy bastard! are you [ bleep ] crazy? you wonder why i want to smack the [ bleep ], [ bleep ] -- >> sal: i don't want to hear about the sunset. >> you made me deaf in one ear! >> jimmy: i feel you're being very negative toward my cousin right now. >> sal: thank you. >> you little [ bleep ]. you do that again, i swear to god i'll knock your teeth out of

put the cell phone -- >> sal: i have a lot of money on the san francisco giants. >> we're actually not allowed to have them in here. >> i'm going to try this. i'm going to really try this. >> jimmy: yeah. we had almost four seconds of silence there, i think that was a record, that was good. >> do you feel that stillness? that quiet? >> you son of a bitch. >> jimmy: aunt chippy -- >> no physical violence. no physical violence. >> jimmy: you can't do that, no physical violence. >> do you have to bang that thing in my ear! >> that wasn't okay either. >> jimmy: she does make a good point. >> what the hell's the matter with you? >> so there were a lot of firsts today. i've never had that much talking. i've certainly never had a student actually use a disrupt tool to awaken or deafen another student. so that was definitely a first. as was the violence for sure. the hitting.

[ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: last time i saw you was in "hamilton." you were unbelievably great. i'm sure you've heard it a billion times.

[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: how long was your run on "hamilton"? >> so roughly two years, if you include downtown at the public,

then a year uptown. >> jimmy: you finished over the summer, did they have a big party for you? >> i threw my own party. >> jimmy: you did? >> yeah. i mean, i decided to stop the week after lyn and leslie left, you know what i'm saying? >> jimmy: really? >> that was the big fanfare, then i had to throw my own. >> jimmy: that's very sad. >> no, no, it was dope. i don't do so well with press. >> jimmy: did anyone come? >> yeah, everybody came. it was cool. we actually -- it was a very last-minute decision. and a friend of mine who sort of makes everything happen was liklik like, i got you. pass the word. everybody came and we just all took shots. >> jimmy: when you decided to leave the show, does your understudy go like, yes! finally! how does that work? >> no. well, right now there's a pretty complicated system of swings and understudies in there who are also in the ensemble of the show. when i'm not there, it's way more work for them until they cast. >> jimmy: i see. you made a lot of very famous

people at the show. everybody wanted a ticket to the show. and there are so many pictures. i mean, i went through some of these pictures. who is this lady? >> i can't place -- i mean, she was really nice, i remember that. she smelled great. [ laughter ] no, oprah was amazing. that's a crazy thing. >> jimmy: can you see oprah in the audience when you're doing the show? >> you can't see her but you can feel her presence. [ laughter ] oprah, that's like being a concept. like meeting a singularity. >> jimmy: speaking of meeting a concept and a singularity, meryl streep. that is intimidating to be performing in front of -- again, do you know she's there? >> so there's a rule backstage that you don't tell. if you know, you don't tell anybody. i was usually fine with knowing. but it takes awhile for word to travel around. by that time you're already committed. >> katy perry before she took her clothes off for that video. [ laughter ] >> katy was awesome. >> jimmy: bill gates came.

did he give you any money? >> he did not. >> jimmy: no? this is a god one. >> that was epic. look at my eyes. shock. shock and disbelief. that's royalty. that's like american royalty. >> jimmy: it really is. closest thing we have, that's for sure. >> that was crazy. >> jimmy: there's a crazy night. >> that was a crazy night. i thought he was a hologram. >> jimmy: you and fidel castro. >> yeah. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: this is a big one, you and barney rubble. >> yo, that was -- [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that's pretty crazy. >> that was what i freaked out the most. >> jimmy: when your family comes to the show, does that make you nervous? >> that probably -- when my close friends are there, because they're jerks and critics. >> jimmy: i see. >> like that makes me nervous. my mom was there every other week. >> jimmy: was she really? >> yeah, moms, you need "hamilton" tickets, talk to my mom. >> jimmy: does she bring one of her friends every time? >> no, just her. >> jimmy: just came by herself?

>> a lot of times, yeah, yeah. mom was very proud. >> jimmy: yeah. >> was there a lot. >> jimmy: how did you wind up on "blackish"? >> man, so kenyon saw the show at some point. i had also i guess at a similar time sat down with one of my agents who was like, whoa, what do you like on tv? the first thing out of my mouth was "black-ish." i've been in love with that show for a long time. i was sitting with kenya. he says, oh, man, i have this weird idea for you as bo's brother. and i stopped, you don't know how perfect that is, because i'm team bo when i watch this show. >> jimmy: tracee ellis ross's character. >> i identify with that character so much because i'm from the bay area, california. we have like a similar hippie upbringing. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: you're also part of a hip-hop group. >> clipping. >> jimmy: clipping.

does having a tony hurt your credibility in the rap game? [ laughter ] >> i -- i don't know is the actual answer. i don't think so. >> jimmy: should we ask around? >> we were pretty out there. i think i shot my credibility long before i won the tony. being on broadway ruined it. >> jimmy: who else is in the group with you? >> two of my best friends, william hudson and jonathan snipes. >> jimmy: from growing up? >> yeah, i've known bill, he was my best friend in third grade, we met over a game of tag. >> jimmy: you were "it" and that's where you met? >> i was really fast. >> jimmy: when you went to -- you were with the group, then you went to broadway to do the show. what did the other guy -- were they mad? were they like, all right, already? >> they didn't tell me if they were mad, kept to it themselves. >> jimmy: they called me and said they were mad, they wanted me to mention it to you. >> yeah. the thing is we just -- we kept working. we kept producing things. >> i see. >> making music. we couldn't tour. >> jimmy: right. >> which meant none of them

could make my money. [ laughter ] in hindsight, yeah, they were probably pretty mad. >> jimmy: i'm sure you'll make it up to them somehow. it's great to have you here, congratulations, an amazing run on "hamilton," your character is very funny on "black-ish," i saw it today.
