>> James: HI!
HOW ARE WE DOING?
>> GREAT.
>> James: THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE!
THANKS FOR COMING TO SEE US!
HARRY, I SAW YOU BACKSTAGE, I THOUGHT YOU LOOKED VERY VERY
RESTED AND I REALIZE IT'S BECAUSE YOU JUST CAME BACK FROM
HAWAII.
>> THAT'S RIGHT, WE HAD A PRIVATE SHOW IN CONIA, AND I
BROUGHT MY THREE DAUGHTERS AND WE WERE THERE FOR ABOUT FOUR
DAYS.
IT WAS A QUICK TRIP BUT WE HAD A GREAT, GREAT TIME.
>> James: WHAT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT?
>> WE TOOK WHAT I THOUGHT WAS GOING TO BE MAYBE A TWO OR THREE
HOUR TOUR ACROSS THE ISLAND AND I HAD STOPPED DRINKING CAFFEINE
NOT LONG AGO JUST BECAUSE I WANTED TO SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN.
( LAUGHTER ) BECAUSE I WAS SUPER ADDICTED.
YOU KNOW, THE COFFEE IN KONA IS SUPPOSED TO BE SOME OF THE BEST
IN THE WORLD.
I WENT TO A FARMERS MARKETTENNED I SAID SCREW IT, I'M GOING TO
HAVE A CUP OF THIS AND IT LITERALLY TURNED INTO A TEN-HOUR
ISLAND TOUR.
( LAUGHTER ) >> James: REALLY?
YOU WERE SO AMPED UP.
>> THE ISLAND IS THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT AND WE LITERALLY
COVERED ALL OF IT.
>> James: YOU RAN AROUND IT FOUR TIMES.
( LAUGHTER ) >> YES.
>> James: GIVING UP COFFEE, I THINK ABOUT IT AND THEN I
REALIZE IT THAT IF I GAVE UP COFFEE, THIS WOULD BE MY LIFE.
>> IT IS, THOUGH.
DO YOU DRINK A LOT OF COFFEE?
>> I DRINK A LOT OF COFFEE.
>> James: YOU'RE AUSTRALIAN.
COFFEE IS HUGE DOWN THERE.
>> IT IS.
WE DRINK MORE COFFEE PER CAPITA THAN ITALIANS DO.
>> SHOULDN'T IT BE PER CUP-A-TA?
( LAUGHTER ) >> James: OH!
YOU ARE A DAD: EAH, I DRINK WAY TOO MUCH
COFFEE.
IF I STOP DRINKING IT, I GET A MASSIVE HEADACHE.
>> I GOT HEADACHES FOR THREE DAYS.
I'M OKAY NOW.
BUT YOU REALLY DO BECOME ADDICTED TO THAT STUFF.
>> James: I'M MORE INTO IT.
I'M INTO IT.
I'M, LIKE, I'M ADDICTED BUT I'M ALL RIGHT WITH IT.
YOU'RE FROM SOUTH KOREA WHICH IS A PLACE I'VE NEVER BEEN TO.
WAS IT A GOOD TIME?
>> I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO GO TO KOREA FOR SO LONG, WE SHOT A
MOVIE THERE.
WE HAD A SCREENING OF "THE KING" IN FRONT OF 5,000 PEOPLE.
>> James: NO WAY!
THE FANS IN KOREA -- I WAS GOING TO SAY THEY'RE INSANE,
IT'S AN INSANE KIND OF FERVOR.
THEY WERE CALLING OUT TIMOTHEE CHALAMET, I DON'T KNOW WHY.
I DIDN'T HEAR A SINGLE JOEL.
( LAUGHTER ) THEY ARE INCREDIBLY WELL
BEHAVED.
SOME FANS ARE IN YOUR SPACE.
IT'S AN INCREDIBLE CULTURE.
I'M OBSESSED WITH KOREAN CINEMA.
I'M NOT HERE TO PROMOTE IT BUT PARASITE.
>> James: REALLY?
THE CINEMA IS GREAT, CULTURE AND FOOD IS GREAT.
I'M MOVING THERE.
( LAUGHTER ) >> I LOVE SOUTH KOREA.
I HAVE BEEN THERE, TOO.
THEY ASSIGNED SECURITY TO ME WHICH I DIDN'T NEED BECAUSE
NOBODY KNEW WHO THE HECK YOU WAS.
>> BECAUSE YOU'RE SUPER TOUGH.
I WENT FOR A JOG, ROLLER BLADES, ACTUALLY, AND THESE FOUR
GUYS JOGGED BEHIND ME FOR MILES AND MILES.
>> James: YOU WENT OUT ON ROLLER BLAITDZ?
>> THERE WAS LIKE 1995 WHEN THEY WERE REAL BIG.
( LAUGHTER ) >> James: I'VE GOT THE
GREATEST IMAGE OF HARRY CONNICK, JR. IN SOUTH KOREA --
( LAUGHTER ) >> THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE.
>> James: KOREAN SECURITY GUARDS JOGGING BEHIND YOU.
>> FOR MILES!
>> James: SO YOU'RE PACKING FOR A TRIP TO GO TO SOUTH KOREA
AND YOU'RE LIKE, CAN'T FORGET THESE ROLLER BLADES.
>> I REALIZE NOW I REVEALED TOO MUCH ABOUT MYSELF.
>> James: CAN WE START AGAIN?
YEAH.
>> James: THE CAFFEINE IS WHAT YOU NEED TO KICK.
>> YEAH.
>> James: HARRY, I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS.
THIS IS HUGELY EXCITING.
LATER THIS WEEK, YOU ARE GOING TO RECEIVE A STAR ON THE
HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> James: TELL ME ABOUT IT,
YOU MUST BE INCREDIBLY EXCITED.
>> I'M SPEECHLESS, TO BE HONEST, JAMES.
IT'S AN INCREDIBLE HONOR.
AS EVERYBODY KNOWS, THOSE STARS HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO SOME OF THE
GREATEST ENTERTAINERS IN OUR BUSINESS AND THE AMAZING THING
FOR ME, OTHER THAN BEING ON A STAR, IS BEING NEXT TO ONE OF
THE GREAT COMPOSERS OF ALL TIME, A GUY BY THE NAME OF COLE
PORTER.
I JUST DID A RECORD -- >> James: YEAH.
-- AND IT'S JUST -- I CAN'T GET OVER IT, I'M TRULY HUMBLED.
>> James: IT'S GOING TO BE AN INCREDIBLE THING.
I CAN'T WAIT.
I'M SURE THE CROWD WILL BE HUGE.
AND IF YOU ROLLERBLADE TO THAT STAR, BUDDY, IT'S GOING TO BE
INCREDIBLE.
