Best of Late Night TV: Matt Damon Pranks Kimmel During (RED) Shopathon, Harrison Ford's Han Solo Doll Demo
If you're like us and value your sleep, you probably nodded off into your Ambien dreamland before the party started on post-prime time TV. Don't worry; we've got you covered. Here's the best of what happened last night on late night.
"Jimmy Kimmel Live" devoted its Tuesday, December 1 episode to the (RED) Shopathon for World AIDS Day, co-produced by VICE Media. Celebrities -- including Bono, Scarlett Johansson, Olivia Wilde, Snoop Dogg, Matt Damon, Tom Brady, and the Killers -- offered Omaze experiences to help raise money in the fight against AIDS. Scarlett was standing by for phone calls, but Jimmy explained that it's not a telethon, donations were done online at Omaze.com/Red, and products presented on the show can be purchased at Gilt.com/RED.
Obviously the best part of any Kimmel episode with "functioning idiot" Matt Damon is the extension of their longtime "feud," and that was put to good use in several bits. Jimmy: "As you can see, we have some of the world's most talented and beloved celebrities helping out. Unfortunately, we also have Matt Damon..." Here's Matt ("Hey, stupid!") in his own video, stuck in the sad dressing room again, and he also crank calls Jimmy and Olivia during her video. And "Demon" returned toward the end to donate some urine to Jimmy's gas tank. Classic.
Harrison Ford can be really funny sometimes, you know. He was on "The Tonight Show" Tuesday night and used a Han Solo doll to demonstrate how he got injured while shooting "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." His dry humor was all over the interview, which included multiple spit-takes and bleeped expletives. Harrison, definitely more ... peppy? ... than usual, also recalled when he pierced Jimmy Fallon's ear. Fallon showed off a photo from the occasion, and gave Harrison a special "Millennium Fallon" drink, with colored ice blocks. But before they could drink, Fallon noted, "You have to do a Greedo shot, first." BRILLIANT.
"The Late Late Show" is so random, and that's the best thing about it. Never change! Here are Krysten Ritter and Ted Danson examining fan art, then getting quizzed by James Corden on other fan art. It's pretty funny. Some of those sketches... Also, did you know Krysten was discovered by a talent scout at the mall? James showed off an adorkable old photo of her, and her feet are truly gigantic.
Tom Jones was on "Conan" and shared a pretty hilarious story about his bromance with Elvis Presley. Elvis was his hero, and they eventually became friends. Apparently they were such good friends that Elvis wanted to pitch him a song one time, and Tom asked him to hold on, he was just coming off stage and wanted to take a shower. While Tom was showering he heard Elvis's voice, and it turns out Elvis was right there in the bathroom with him. Tom shooed him out but when he was done showering he realized Elvis has used the toilet while he was showering. Awkward! Elvis's pants were still down when Tom, naked, got out of the shower. Super funny story, though.
