- There are a lot of heroes out there,
but today I want to talk about a fictional one.
The latest Bond movie, "Spectre" came out this weekend.
Do you go see it? A lot of people did.
Well, a lot of people saw it. It did very, very well
so I think there's a chance they'll make another one.
[laughter]
Obviously James Bond has always been played
by a man, but Daniel Craig said that he
thinks that Bond could be played by a woman.
And I-- [cheers and applause]
Yeah, I know.
It's amazing he said that.
[cheers and applause]
And it got me thinking about who the first Bond female--
the female Bond should be, you know?
- Ellen.
- Well, listen-- you know--
[cheers and applause]
Believe me, I thought about it
'cause we have a lot in common, you know?
I mean, we both wear beautiful suits,
and we both drive fast cars. We both drink martinis.
We both gamble. We love beautiful women...
all those things. [laughter]
So I could do it.
[cheers and applause]
But I personally think the first, uh, female, uh--
she should be Jane Bond, by the way.
And it should be Oprah. That's my choice for, um--
[cheers and applause] Yeah.
And I'm not-- I'm not just saying it because
she put me on her favorite things list.
But, first of all, uh, you know, she can do--
anything that a man can do, Oprah can do better.
Let's just face it, you know.
And because she's Oprah, and she's famous,
she saves a lot of time with introductions.
She just says, you know-- she wouldn't have to say
"My name's Oprah." You know?
She's just Oprah. That's all it is.
Also, instead of having a license to kill,
Oprah would have a license to resolve conflicts peacefully.
And Oprah has so many celebrity friends,
she could replace Q with [singing] Beyonce.
[cheers and applause]
[singing] Beyonce!
I don't know if she'd go up or down on that one.
I'm not sure.
We need more strong women in movies and television
like Katniss in "Hunger Games" and, uh--
[cheers and applause]
Like Khaleesi from "Game of Thrones."
I mean, she is-- look at her.
She's a queen and a mother of dragons.
I mean, it's one thing to have a career and be a mother,
but to be a mother of dragons,
that--that is a lot to have both things.
We're starting to see more and more
strong women characters on television.
Obviously the most progressive female character of all
is Flo from Progressive Insurance.
[laughter]
[cheers and applause] Yup.
Right?
[cheers and applause]
[singing] Who run the world...girls
Right now, I am gonna run this thing
with a dance.
