Nikki Novak here for Young Hollywood on the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live in Austin. I am here with Jimmy Kimmel in Texas. Want to break into song?
Um sure, yeah. I'll start it out. The stars at night Are big and bright. Deep in the heart of Texas. I don't think I don't think we're deep in the heart of Texas here.
Wait, did I say it wrong?
No, you got it right, but I think Austin, we're kind of in uh, I don't know, maybe we're in like the uh, the stomach of Texas or something.
Deep in the weird of Texas. They say keep Austin weird, so we're in the weird part.
I guess so, yeah. Things are going to get weird.
You mean here right now?
They may. Okay. Don't be scared, don't be scared.
We always do, we always put you in weird positions. First of all, traveling here, I want to know your travel style. Like, are you the guy are you drooling on the plane on the person next to you? Are you are you that guy?
Okay. All right. I do. I do, yeah. I didn't do that here, but I have done that in the past.
Have you?
In fact, um I once sat next to a woman. I passed out almost immediately. Laying she was at the window. I was laying on her. And when we finally landed, she was so upset that she got up and stormed out in front of me. She did not wait for me to clear the aisle and she left. No.
Wow. Yeah. Did she not know who you were?
Uh it was a long time ago. She didn't care. It made no difference to her. She was a man drooling on her, I guess. It made no difference.
So, I know you guys are, you're known to have the sickest green room in LA.
We do, yes.
How's the set up here?
Um, I don't do we even have a green room here? I don't think we even have a green room.
You have a food truck I heard.
We do? Yeah. We do? Apparently. Nobody told me about that.
You have to. You got to do that. There are a lot of food trucks out here. You got big competition.
Well, I am like a light bulb to these food trucks which are the moths knowing that I will eat from any one of them that I pass. There are.
Do you glow? Do you light up like a firefly when you see one?
I glow, but it's heartburn.
Is that what it is? Well, speaking of which, you gave me the perfect segway. Okay. We're talking we're going to talk about I know you and Guillermo went around in a nice little convertible and you did sort of all the All the barbeque places. Right. Did you have a meat hangover?
Um, you know what? I feel like my whole life has been a meat hangover. I'll be honest with you. When people say like I had a meat I've never really experienced that.
You never have meat sweats?
No. There are there really meat sweats?
I get meat sweats. I wake up in the morning soaked. Maybe it's not very attractive or sexy, but right.
But I think when you eat meat almost for almost every meal, you never experience that because you're It's normal. They're They're just sweats. That's just normal everyday Jimmy Kimmel's life.
Okay, so what's the tip then to get over the to get over the the meat hangover for people out there who aren't quite as accustomed to it. Yeah, exactly.
Eat more meat. I mean, it's just like drinking, you know. Yeah. Hair of the dog that bit you, or hair of the hog that bit you, I think, is what you get.
Okay. Um, obviously you've interviewed pretty much everybody. Can I reveal that person that's on your list?
Oh, yeah. Sure.
Lady Gaga you've got coming this week.
Yeah, she's coming on uh Thursday night, I think.
I mean, you got quite a lineup.
Yeah, we got uh Seth Rogen, Snoop Dogg. These are good people. Willie Nelson.
Can we steal a few? We've tried to steal Guillermo before.
You know what? Guillermo never done this before. No. No, sweetie, here you go. I'm blessed. You smell better than him.
Well, you can try you're more than welcome to try to steal them. I can't sanction that.
We're going to steal Guillermo later. We're going to try to steal him again.
Oh, yeah. Well, give them back to me. You can borrow him.
Okay, so that's the deal from now on?
Yes, borrow him. Well, speaking of Guillermo, we have I know you just got on Instagram.
Yeah.
You're quite new to it.
Yeah, you know, I have I have been Instagramming, but I didn't know how to connect it to Twitter. And they're almost all food pictures.
Food pictures. Cute babies. Uh-huh. You don't have a selfie. So, guess what? Are we going to have a selfie here? We're going to have a selfie moment here.
Okay, all right. So, um, you're going to have a selfie off with Guillermo. Who can do it better? Oh, is there an art to it? Or should we be in it together?
Well, if you would like, I mean, I'd be more than happy to be in it.
Okay. All right. Well, the key is, I think, well Do you want me to hold the mic for you while you?
Uh sure. Okay. I think the key is you don't go high. Yeah. You go high. Yeah. So if you go high, if you go low, like that. Perfect. What are we going to hashtag that bad boy? We got to pick a good filter too.
There it is. Hashtag meat sweats. Have you checked out the filters on Instagram? Do you have a favorite? I like Lo-Fi. Do you have one?
You know, I don't I believe in leaving it unfiltered. I think it.
You do?
Yeah. I do.
Judging by what I just saw, I think we're going to have to filter the crap out of that one. We might have to filter that one, I'll be honest with you. It looks like I'm having a meat sweat in that one. Um so yeah, obviously you have a great lineup. Is there anybody that you haven't interviewed that you'd like to?
Um, in the world? In the world? Living or dead?
Yeah, there are lots of people, but uh, give me a few. Banksy is somebody I would like to have on. Yes. He'd have to be in the dark. You wouldn't be able to see him.
Well, yeah, I mean, ideally you'd be able to see him. I think that would be part of the fun. Revealing who he actually is.
Yeah. I think if I had to pick one at the top of my list, that would be That would be the guy. That would be the guy, yeah.
