9:43 am
>> oh, absolutely. i think it's interesting that george clooney who was almost, you know, was one of the faces of hollywood like i said check out and he's gone to live with her in england because she in england is a very influential and powerful person and what she does. so, um, you know, right now the balance is gone to amal. he's over there and maybe they'll come back to hollywood at some point but from everything we've her they're very happy over there. in fact she -- a couple weeks threw a big party for him hadn't his friends randy gerber and cindy craw for come over there. so he's done with hollywood. >> i was going to ask. one quick point. >> as far as living here. >> aside from a coffee commercial we see every morning here, with george clooney, we don't see him doing much. is he working on anything c comg up, hollywood related? >> yeah, he's still working on things. i think he looks like he's doing more producing at this point, but, no, you'll see still see george clooney in movies. he'll be making movies but as far as l
9:44 am
he's pretty happy being over in england, and he's going to be really busy let's face it he's got twins now. i don't know that george clooney is the changing diapers type. >> we'll fine out. >> i just can't see it. >> if anybody will find out it will be you, charles. >> super cute. >> yeah. [ laughter ] >> all right. moving on to another topic. that's the happy news. now, i mean, the use of the n word has been in right on the tour front we had first bill maher and his controversy. >> bill maher and now jay moore with his own n bomb controversy. what's going on? >> yeah. this jay moore one really seems odd. i mean, the bill maher was odd as well, but jay moore went on twitter and was trying to make a point about rapper little boozy. boozy had gone on a rant about something eased scene in prison end you've the n word several times in this description. well, jay moore took him to task for that. but in doing so, used t
9:45 am
freely a couple of times on twitter. now, immediately people are like, wait, why are you doing this? we spoken to people connected to jay, and they pointed out that, look, he's you've the word several times before in his stand-up act and we went back and found a couple of clips and he did use it, but i don't know, this is as my mom would say two wrongs make a right? no. because it was very uncomfortable when i saw the stand-up clip also because in one sense -- one instance he was making -- doing impression of tracy morgan saying the word and, all right, i can maybe give that little leeway but then self other times where it wasn't that at all. it was just him speaking. so it's just strange and, upping, to lean on the fact that he'd done it before doesn't really help. >> no. >> right. okay. jay moore fail. >> fail on that. >> yes. >> all righty. let's end on a good note here. so the water slide video from jamaica we talk about this yesterday one of the reasons we
9:46 am
was because the reaction to him doing this was kind of lame out actually. people were like there's a dude sliding across the water and jumping up on the pool like we've seen this a thousand times before. maybe because they had. >> there's a good reason for that. they probably had seen it if they were at the resort for any amount of time. they did see it a lot. we talked to the guy you see in that video. his name is johnson a lifeguard at the water park, he says he's not the only one who can do it. he's just the most recent person that was captured on video. all the lifeguards have figure out the trick, and it's pretty simple thing. when he explain it to us, it kind of makes sense, that when you hit the water your legs have to be very tight together, crossed, and you sit up as you hit the water. now you have to have a lot of speed coming out of the slide, but all the lifeguards have figure out exactly how to do it. >> wait a minute. >> and you can actually -- >> now we're seeing the video. >> other videos. >> charles. time
9:47 am
so -- he did just did that. how deep is there. it looks like it's just like a couple of inches -- >> not deep. >> in that spot. >> it's not deep at all. like a slip and slide. >> now that i see these other videos it makes more sense. >> you going to lot faster. yes. exactly. >> still cool. >> he says, look -- yeah, it's still cool. no everyone will be trying it. by the way he said he pack tiff this for about two years. and that's why he's nailed it. he nails it now every time. but i would imagine there are a few times he didn't nail it. and that's going to be everybody this summer i think at the water park. >> that put out by that water park in the tourism board of jamaica. >> fox5 field trip. have to try it for ourselves. only makes sense. charles, thanks. see you on tmz later today. charles from los angeles. tmz. >> thanks guys. >> 3:00 o'clock and 7:00 o'clock right here on fox5. at midnight after jim lokay's show. >> i am of a certain age i remember when george clooney had little pig as a pet. do you guys remembe
