YOU LOOK FANTASTIC.
>> THANKS.
>> Jimmy: I LIKE THAT DRESS.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
HOW ARE YOU?
>> I'M GREAT, THANKS.
>> Jimmy: YOU REALLY LOOK GREAT,
I LIKE THAT.
IT'S VERY SPARKLY, AND REALLY,
YOU COULD WEAR THAT TO THE
OSCARS, OR IS IT NOT FANCY
ENOUGH FOR THE OSCARS?
>> WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT?
I HADN'T THOUGHT ABOUT IT, BUT
IT MIGHT BE TOO LATE NOW.
>> Jimmy: ARE YOU ALREADY
THINKING ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE, DO
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO
WEAR TO THE OSCARS?
>> I DON'T, ACTUALLY, HM-MM.
>> Jimmy: SOMEBODY ELSE WILL
FIGURE THAT OUT, THOUGH, RIGHT?
>> I'D LIKE TO BE PART OF THE
CONVERSATION.
>> Jimmy: YOU WON THE SAG AWARD,
THE GOLDEN GLOBE.
I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO THE
BAFTAS IN LONDON.
>> MM-HM.
>> Jimmy: IS IT TRUE YOU'RE
DRIVING YOURSELF TO THE AIRPORT?
>> MM-HM.
DOESN'T EVERYBODY?
>> Jimmy: AND YOU'LL PARK
YOURSELF AND THEN GO IN?
>> THAT'S USUALLY HOW IT WORKS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: AT L.A.X., I KNOW TO
MOST PEOPLE IN NORMAL PLACES
THAT SOUNDS LIKE NO BIG DEAL,
BUT THAT'S A REAL COMMITMENT.
>> YEAH, NO, IT REALLY IS.
IT'S A SOJOURN.
YOU'RE ASKING LIKE A MILLION
PEOPLE TO GO INTO ONE CIRCLE AND
BE MIPOLITE TO EACH OTHER.
>> Jimmy: THEY'VE CLOSED OFF
ALMOST ALL THE PARKING.
SO YOU DRIVE IN A CIRCLE, CURSE
AND GO AWAY.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT?
IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU, I GOT AT
THAT GO.
>> Jimmy: YOU WON IN 2004.
>> I CAN'T REMEMBER.
>> Jimmy: FOR "COLD MOUNTAIN".
>> IT WAS 2004?
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
>> Jimmy: I THINK SO.
>> THANK YOU.
>> Jimmy: DO YOU HAVE LIKE
SOMETHING THAT STANDS OUT IN
YOUR MEMORY ABOVE ALL OTHERS
BESIDES WINNING THE OSCAR
ITSELF?
>> IT'S SUCH A WEIRD MOMENT, YOU
KNOW?
THAT YOU JUST REMEMBER THAT YOUR
PLAN TO NOT DO THAT SPIRAL THAT
YOU SEE PEOPLE DO ON TV WHEN YOU
ROLL YOUR EYES, IT JUST GOES OUT
THE WINDOW.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE THE GEEK
PERSON WHO FREEZES UP AND CAN'T
HEAR ANYTHING AND GETS EMOTIONAL
AND THEN SOMEBODY SAYS YOUR NAME
AND YOU HEAR THIS, LIKE, DOOO.
AND THEN, YOU KNOW, YOU DO THE
GEEK SPIRAL.
DO YOU.
YOU DO THE GEEK SPIRAL AND HOPE
YOU DON'T STUMBLE ON THE WAY UP.
AND I COULDN'T HEAR ANYTHING AND
I DIDN'T REMEMBER ANYTHING.
AND I REMEMBER SOMEBODY WAS
TALKING, AND I GUESS IT WAS ME.
AND I WAS LOOKING OUT AT THE
AUDIENCE, YOU KNOW, MY
CO-WORKERS FOR SO MANY YEARS AND
FRIENDS AND PEOPLE I'VE ADMIRED
FOREVER AND EVER.
FAN, YES, GEEK FAN IN THAT ROOM,
BIG TIME.
AND I REMEMBER THINKING, MY
GOSH, IT'S LIKE SERGEANT
PEPPER'S ALBUM COVER.
ALL THESE PEOPLE WERE FROZEN,
STARING AND I REMEMBER SEAN PENN
WAS AT 12:00.
HE WAS JUST SMILING.
I WAS TALKING, GOING THAT'S SEAN
PENN.
I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT I SAID.
>> Jimmy: YOU GOT SPAKOLI'D IN
THE MIDDLE OF YOUR SPEECH.
>> THANK YOU FOR POINTING THAT
OUT.
>> Jimmy: I ASSUME YOU'VE SEEN
THIS.
BUT YOU WERE ON THE COVER OF
"VANITY FAIR" THIS MONTH WITH
JENNIFER LOPEZ.
AS PART OF THE WORLD'S LEAST
SCARY BIKER GANG.
[ LAUGHTER ]
YOU ARE REALLY ON HIS BACK OR IS
THIS PHOTO SHOPPED?
>> I'M TELLIN' YOU, THAT'S THE
2
WAY TO MEET SOMEBODY.
>> Jimmy: HOW LONG DID IT TAKE
TO DO THIS?
>> IT WASN'T THAT LONG.
>> Jimmy: NOT TOO LONG?
>> IT WAS LONG FOR MY LEFT
THIGH, BECAUSE I WAS BALANCING
ON MY TIPPYTOE.
>> Jimmy: DID YOU SAY I'D LIKE
TO BE ONE OF THE PEOPLE DRIVING
THE MOTORCYCLE?
>> I DIDN'T REALLY CARE.
BECAUSE EDDIE MURPHY WAS GOING
TO BE THERE AND J. LO.
I'M LIKE, WHATEVER.
>> Jimmy: WAS HE FUN?
>> HE WAS SO NICE.
FUN.
JUST PLAYING SOME MUSIC AND
SINGIN'.
HE'S GOT A LOVELY VOICE.
HE WAS FINE.
I WAS JUST TRYING TO NOT PUT ALL
MY WEIGHT ON HIM, BECAUSE YOU
KNOW, LADIES, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M
TALKIN' ABOUT.
I'M TRYING TO BE, YOU KNOW.
>> Jimmy: HE'S A STURDY MAN.
>> I'M SURE HE COULD HAVE
HANDLED THE TASK.
BUT WE JUST MET.
SO I FIGURED, YOU KNOW.
>> Jimmy: DO YOU RECOGNIZE THIS
HOME THAT IS CURRENTLY FOR SALE?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> WE BUILT THAT HOUSE.
>> Jimmy: THIS IS, THIS HOME
WON'T LAST.
ONCE HOME TO FAMED ACTRESS RENEE
ZELLWEGER.
THIS WAS YOUR CHILDHOOD HOME?
>> IT WAS ONE OF THEM.
THAT WAS MY DAD'S DREAM.
MY DAD IS A SWISS ENGINEER.
SO HE WAS ALWAYS BUILDING THINGS
WITH HIS SOLDERING IRON ON THE
DINING ROOM TABLE.
>> Jimmy: HE BUILT IT WITH THAT?
>> ONE DAY, ONE DAY, HE BOUGHT
THAT LAND FROM ONE OF HIS
CO-WORKERS, AND WE PLANTED SOME
LITTLE BABY PINE TREES.
>> Jimmy: THAT ARE BIG NOW.
>> I DON'T THINK THEY MADE THE
CUT IN THE PHOTO.
BUT WE PUT THE SEPTIC SYSTEM IN.
WE WERE OUT IN THE YARD WITH THE
DITCH WITCH.
DAD WANTS TO DO IT RIGHT.
IF YOU WANT IT DONE RIGHT YOU DO
IT YOURSELF.
>> Jimmy: IS THAT HOW HE?
>> SO WE DID IT.
WE BUILT A SEPTIC SYSTEM
TOGETHER.
HEY.
OH, THE THINGS CAN YOU DO.
>> Jimmy: DOES YOUR DAD, DOES
YOUR FAMILY HAVE A LITTLE PARTY
AND WATCH THE, LIKE THE OSCARS
AND THESE SHOWS WHEN YOU'RE
NOMINATED FOR THEM?
>> YEAH, ACTUALLY.
>> Jimmy: THEY DO?
>> YEAH.
>> Jimmy: AND DO YOU CALL THEM
RIGHT AFTERWARDS?
>> IN 2000 AND --
>> Jimmy: WELL, YOU WON THE SAG
AWARD AND THE GOLDEN GLOBE.
DO YOU CALL THEM UP?
>> WELL, YEAH.
I DON'T BRING MY PHONE IN WITH
ME, BUT AFTER I DO, YEAH.
>> Jimmy: YOU CHECK IN WITH THEM
IN AND EVERYBODY SCREAMS AND ALL
THAT KIECHBD STUFF?
>> IT'S VERY SWEET.
>> Jimmy: YOU KNOW MAYBE ONE OF
THEM COULD DROP YOU OFF AT THE
AIRPORT.
>> Jimmy: THE MOVIE IS "JUDY."
>> Dicky: PORTIONS OF "JIMMY
KIMMEL LIVE" ARE BROUGHT TO YOU
BY LIPTON TEA.
TAKE A SIP ON THE SUNNY SIDE.
♪ SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW
♪ WAY UP HIGH
♪ THERE'S A LAND THAT I'VE HEARD
OF ♪
♪ ONCE IN A LULLABY
>> Jimmy: THAT IS RENEE
ZELLWEGER IN "JUDY."
IT'S IN THEATERS NOW.
YOU ARE NOMINATED FOR AN ACADEMY
AWARD, AS WELL.
WHAT A SAD LIFE SHE HAD.
TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS
PERIOD OF JUDY GARLAND'S LIFE.
I DIDN'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT HER.
I KNOW SHE WAS IN "WIZARD OF
OZ."
BUT IT'S REALLY A TOUGH GO SHE
HAD, IT SEEMS.
>> WELL, I DIDN'T KNOW MUCH
ABOUT THIS CHAPTER OF HER LIFE
EITHER.
THIS IS TOWARDS THE END OF HER
LIFE.
SHE DID A SERIES OF CONCERTS
OVER IN LONDON.
AND YES, SHE WAS FACING
FINANCIAL HARDSHIPS.
SHE DIDN'T REALLY HAVE A PLACE
TO LIVE AND WAS NOT GETTING WORK
BECAUSE SHE WAS CONSIDERED
UNEMPLOYABLE.
SO SHE WENT OVER AND DID THESE
CONCERTS AND THE MOVIE TOUCHES
ON THAT PART OF HER LIFE WHEN
SHE WAS TRYING TO GET HER NEXT
NEW CHAPTER GOING, YOU KNOW.
>> Jimmy: SEPARATED FROM HER
CHILDREN, WHICH IS VERY TOUGH.
>> YEAH.
JO
>> Jimmy: I HAVE TO COMPLIMENT
YOU ON YOUR SINGING IN THE
MOVIE, NOT JUST BECAUSE IT'S
VERY GOOD, BUT ON TOP OF IT, YOU
REALLY, A LOT OF TIMES IN THESE
MOVIES, THEY'LL RECORD THE VOCAL
TRACK IN A STUDIO, AND YOU GO
LIMB
LIP SYNCH IT, BUT YOU REALLY DID
THE SINGING THERE AECHEACH TIME
FRONT OF EVERYONE ON CAMERA.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
>> Jimmy: THAT'S SO MUCH BETTER
I THINK.
DID YOU WANT TO DO IT LIKE THAT?
>> NO.
NO, DEFINITELY NOT.
BUT RUPERT, THE DIRECTOR, HE
THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE BETTER,
TOO.
BUT I DIDN'T THINK HE WAS
SERIOUS.
I THOUGHT I WOULD BE ABLE TO
TALK HIM OUT OF IT ON THE DAY.
>> Jimmy: YOU DID.
>> YEAH.
>> Jimmy: AND YOU WERE UNABLE TO
TALK HIM OUT OF IT.
>> YEAH, I COULDN'T TALK HIM OUT
OF IT.
>> Jimmy: DID THAT FRIGHTEN YOU,
SINGING LIVE IN FRONT OF THE
CREW.
>> YEAH.
>> Jimmy: TO AN EXTREME EXTENT.
>> YEAH, THAT'S WHAT A TIGHT
SCHEDULE IS GOOD FOR.
THERE'S NO TIME TO SIT AROUND
AND TRY TO, YOU KNOW, I DON'T
KNOW.
>> Jimmy: THINK ABOUT IT TOO
MUCH.
>> YEAH.
YOU JUST GOT TO GO DO IT.
I WAS LUCKY.
EVERYBODY IN THE AUDIENCE, ALL
ACTORS.
BY THE TIME WE'RE DOING THESE
PERFORMANCES WE'VE ALL BEEN
TALKING AND TELLING STORIES, SO
ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WAS FRIENDS.
JUST LIKE FRIENDS.
>> Jimmy: IT WAS LIKE KARAOKE,
EXCEPT YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE
DOING IT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: YOU ALSO RECORDED THE
SOUND TRACK AT ABBEY ROAD.
>> YES.
>> Jimmy: ARE YOU A BIG BEATLES
FAN?
>> VERY MUCH, HOW ABOUT YOU.
>> Jimmy: VERY MUCH.
EVEN MORE SO NOW THAT MY KIDS
ARE YOUNG, THEY LOVE BEAT BUGS.
THIS IS BUGS SINGING BEATLES
SONGS.
IT'S PRETTY GOOD.
I DON'T KNOW HOW I GOT OFF ON
THAT.
BUT THIS IS, THERE'S YOU
CROSSING THE FAMOUS POSE.
YOU COULDN'T ROUND UP THREE
FRIENDS?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> IT WAS EARLY, REALLY, REALLY
EARLY.
>> Jimmy: WHAT TIME WAS IT WHEN
YOU DID THIS?
>> IT WAS PROBABLY 7:00.
>> Jimmy: ARE PEOPLE
CONSIDERATE?
EVERYBODY'S TAKING PICTURES
THERE ALL DAY, RIGHT?
>> ACTUALLY, YEAH.
PEOPLE TAKE TURNS.
IT WAS REALLY SWEET, BUT THERE
WASN'T ANYBODY LINE UP AT THAT
HOUR.
>> Jimmy: WHO TOOK THE PICTURE
FOR YOU?
>> DAVID LIVING STONE.
>> Jimmy: IT'S LIKE GOING UP TO
THE HOLLYWOOD SIGN.
WE DON'T DO IT HERE.
HE'S ENGLISH.
I KNOW YOU HAVE TO GO TO LONDON.
WILL YOU BE WATCHING THE SUPER
BOWL?
OR IS THERE TOO MUCH?
>> OH, I'LL FIND A WAY.
>> Jimmy: YOU WILL WATCH IT IN
LONDON OR COME BACK?
>> I WILL FIND A WAY.
I GOT TO SEE J. LO DO HOER
THTHI
THING, COME ON.
>> Jimmy: ARE YOU ROOTING FOR
EITHER OF THE TEAMS?
>> I'M ROOTING FOR J. LO.
>> Jimmy: SHE'S GOING TO WIN
EITHER WAY.
>> I KNOW.
>> Jimmy: CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL
THE ACCOLADES.
"JUDY" IS IN THEATERS NOW.
