quincy jones is a friend of mine and has been on the show many times.ver i go to his house, i have been there a gazillion times. i go to the same place, and the room he had built, all of these grammy awards. i sit there and the calomel the time to make sure they are still there. i read them again because i want to see what saw that was for. it is mind-boggling to walk into our room and see that many grammy awards. how do you process 26 and counting since you are nominated this year? >> and we wonder what happened, there must of been a mistake in there. you were caught record and it is likely on the one you are ever going to make. to be recognized at all, it is pretty great. don'tt look back and i look too far ahead, it is about a span of time. i don't spend too much time thinking about it, thinking about the recording. if it is awful, we can't deal with it or if it is satisfactory, we are moving on. tavis: not that i have been invited to your house, but if i were to break into your house, not that i would do that either, but where are the grammy awards?

my friend yesterday that the persons i know who have lived the most life, harry belafonte and quincy jones. we would get back to all of the white you have done and a second, but for those who are hearing you grew up in this country the son of jamaican immigrants with all of the controversy of immigrants and their role in this society, what you say to people who might be of the notion that for a guy who grew up in this country as the son of immigrants, he is mousse with his lips when it comes to rebuking this country. you do not hold your tongue when you think something ought to be said. link those things for me. >> first of all, i am who i am despite what america has put before me. i am chu lai and despite the obstacles we have faced based upon race and humiliation. i am not here because i am inspired by what great presidents have done or not done. i am here because i come from a sense of struggle, of using the instruments that were given to me to manipulate the environment in which i found myself and join with those who are equally skillful at manipulating that environment. i think americ

quincy jones. and twitter inventor jack dorsey. all opening up about life, love, success and failure. >> the most shocking thing that anyone would hear from a table like this is there's a tendency for people to look and say they've made it. what they don't understand is the amount of insecurity that drives you when you're 15, but it's still there when you're 48. >> nothing's off limits. >> any discussion of this type always makes me kind of secretly kind of squirm. >> this is big news. i want to make sure we stick with the headline here which is that you wish to be frozen. your head. >> would you want to live forever? >> yep. >> you would? >> you bet your ass. you have never seen a dinner party quite like this. >> larry's drawers. >> russell, does anything embarrass you? >> all coming up next. >> you know what? none of this is airing. this is clearly not airing. if it's not airing, we all have to chip in for the meal. >> i think this goes on hbo. >> no. hbo would not air this. >> on this larry king special, "dinner with the kings."

i fwet a call from quincy jones. he wants me to rap on my album. remember that? -- so that's why for me it's key that i remain humble. because all this right now is luck. i mean, i remember timing where, you know, if i would have went this way, i wouldn't be here. if i would have went that way, i wouldn't be here. i'm grateful to have friends. i'm grateful that, you know, conan has me on the show. i'm grateful to be sitting next to tyra. you know, i'm grateful that you invited me to this dinner. i thank you very much. i'm just a kid that's from northern new jersey who followed his dreams, stayed out of trouble and i'm here. >> quincy? >> i'm grateful that i'm a motherless -- going to go from infancy to alzheimer's. i don't ever want to be grown up. seven of the most beautiful kids. six daughters, one son. grand kids and the best friends in the world. i work with every major artist in the world in the last 60 years. every major armstrong. louis armstrong, billy holiday, too. all those rappers. it's a blessing. you have to take the light. the light part of your lif

he sits down with conan o'brien, tyra banks, shaquille o'neal, seth mcfarland, quincy jones, russell brand and twitter founder jack dorsey for sometimes funny, sometimes serious discussions. >> when i did my show, created my show, whatever, i also created a persona on "top model." it is a character. when i am sitting there with all of this makeup on and talking all of that and reprimanding the girls. that is a character. i don't do that. in real life, i'm like passive aggressive. i'm anti-confrontational. i'm even in coaching to learn to be confrontational. so it is a character. >> one of the girls who must have been 16, 17 years old said to me, how do you get over your insecurity? when does that go away? i said you never get over it. and she was shocked. she is looking at me and i have been doing this a long time and to her i may as well be a thousand years old, even though i'm only in my early 30s but she said how do you get over your insecurity and i said it is never going away. if you are any good at what you do you will always be afraid and always think you are fooling everyone.
