>> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- matthew morrison. maggie q. and music from yelawolf. with cleto and the cletones. and now, where am i? here's jimmy kimmel! ♪ it's "jimmy kimmel live" [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: hi, everyone. hello there. well, that's very nice. thank you. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. thanks for watching. thanks for coming. are you here by choice or did the wind blow you in here? we've had crazy winds here in l.a. in some areas, up to 97 miles per hour. 97 miles -- that's almost 100

miles per hour. that's -- a lot of miles per hour. traffic lights are out. flights have had to be diverted. paris hilton's chihuahua's flew away. the power went out at my house last night at about 1:00 a.m. i was forced to sleep the whole night in the dark. it was scary. it's still out. fortunately my good friend huey lewis told me the only power you need is the power of love. unless you want a shower, then it's nice to have eelectricity. you know what i'm good at? repeatedly forgetting the power is out and going over to turn the lights on and then realize -- oh, the power's out. and then three seconds later, i will do it again. i think the lapd jumped the gun raiding occupy l.a. tuesday night. if they waited one more night, the wind would have kicked them out of the park for them. those tents would have been occupying arizona right now. most everyone here in los

angeles has been affected by the winds in one way or the other but none more than our intrepid low ca local news reporters. >> it is unbelievable out here. >> this is dangerous and it is incredible. it's miserable out here. >> our news truck was bouncing around like a pinball. >> our whole van was shaking on the highway. >> the truck is actually swaying. >> you wonder what just went down, what happened. we are also trying to stay alert. >> wind is really beginning to pick up now. this is about 90 miles an hour. >> it really hurts, let me tell you. >> i have lost my shoes. >> oh, man. >> you know, matt, our truck operator tom said, don't you wish you had your weight back. right about now i do. >> al's fine, by the way. >> jimmy: we added a few in

there to make it more dramatic. but wind really is funny, you know? hail can be good, too, but wind is my favorite. there has been a lot of damage. more than 400,000 homes in southern california lost power. for the last 24 hours, we have been forced to keep up with the kardashians via the u.s. postal service. [ laughter ] the good part about the wind, i was thinking about it, sometimes you wake in the morning with a whole new set of lawn furniture. [ laughter ] eric dane from "grey's anatomy," you know him. a huge tree fell and crashed into his house. mcsteamy's house was -- why would you laugh at that? [ laughter ] the actor was unharmed but he did lose his towel, again, so -- dakota fanning, did you hear what happened to her? this is right before the wind kicked in. and this is dakota after -- it -- [ laughter ] they blow up so fast.

the wind is a nuisance but it is kind of nice to experience some weather here in southern california. unfortunately for those of us who work here, we had to spend the whole day at our desks preparing the show. my cousin sal did a nice thing. he went around the office, just to make sure everyone got a little taste of the outdoors. >> angela, please be careful. it's very windy. ♪ ♪

your hair looks really good. here's the writer's room. it should be good. oh. nobody here. oh well. ♪ ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we have our own naturaldy asters. we make our own natural disasters. my aunt and uncle made their own

natural disaster. it's my cousin sal. we have good news to report tonight. for the first time in his adorable life, our parking lot security guard guillermo is a father. [ cheers and applause ] this morning at -- just before 10:00 a.m., guillermo and his wife sarah gave birth to benjamin francis rodriguez. middle name after my uncle frank. this is the kid -- a healthy boy. wait a minute. [ laughter ] that's not him. wait that is not him. that's -- go to the other one. i think -- yeah, that's him right there. he's big, too. right? how big is he, guillermo? >> nine pounds and three ounces. >> jimmy: nine pounds and three ounces. that's -- a lot of that is baby weight, though, it will -- [ laughter ] i didn't think there could be anything cuter than guillermo but he had a baby. like a kitten gave birth to a

puppy. that's very nice. do you like him? >> he look like me, yeah. >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. kind of weird for me because i think of guillermo as my baby. literally i claim him as a dependent on my tax return. so, in a way, i feel like i'm a grandpa today. >> yes. hi, grandpa. >> jimmy: congratulations. we should go to hooters after the show to celebrate. >> yeah, sure. >> jimmy: all right. here's an interesting piece of potentially bad news for guys like me. according to a new report that came out this week, the number of u.s. households that own a television set is down for the first time since they started the survey. fewer people have tv in their homes. which is -- i mean, we should be ashamed of ourselves. this is america! the only excuse for not having a tv in your home is, you're too fat to fit into best buy to get one. i don't understand. the best thing that ever happened to us was tv. chaz bono dances on tv.

for you. [ laughter ] without tv, what's snooki supposed to do? go around vomiting door to door? [ laughter ] without tv, there would be no kardashian wedding. [ laughter ] this is something. kim kardashian, soon to be ex-husband kris humphries, instead of timing for divorce, he filed for an annulment of their marriage and cited fraud as the reason. getting an annulment is -- is kind of like playing uno. weird rules. if you win and it's like nothing ever happened. but -- uno fans? experts are saying it's going to be hard for him to prove there was any real fraud but if you look closely at the video of the wedding, it's right there, it is obvious. >> repeat after me. chris, i love you. >> chris, i love you. >> and take you to be my wedded husband. >> and take you to be my wedded husband. >> til death do us part. >> til death do us part.

>> jimmy: her fingers were crossed. the fact that both your names start with a k is not a reason to get married. in other reality show news, the republican candidates for president continued to entertain us in all manner of unusual ways. last night on fox news, michele bachmann, you know who she is, right? when she was asked who she would choose as her running mate in the impossible -- if she were to be elected the candidate -- who she would choose, she said donald trump is someone voterst. yeah, we're intrigued with the shake weight, too. we don't necessarily want it to be vice president. can you imagine that? michele bachmann and donald trump? that doesn't sound like a ticket that sounds like the 2012 "dancing with the stars" finalists. she's out of her mind. can you see donald trump accepting a job as vice anything? i'm pret donald trump shot a new vud owe for youtube.

he's got a channel. and any time he gets annoyed about something, he posts a video. this week, he's mad at president obama for the timing of a fund-raiser he held in new york last night. >> president obama is holding a fund-raiser, another of his fund-raisers, hundreds of them, every day he's holding fund-raisers. he doesn't govern. all he does is raise money so he can try and get reelected so he can put the country further in the hole. >> jimmy: you know -- donald trump is starting to remind me of someone. >> i'm not hearing anyone who hates barack obama. what's wrong with us anyhow? have we gone soft? >> jimmy: that's the guy, yeah. the messy office, the crazy hair. this could be an argument for reincarnation. [ laughter ] but the real star of the republican field is, of course, herman cain. he's had quite a week. on monday, a woman named ginger white came forward and claimed that they've been having extramarital affair for the last 13 years. but this one was consensual.

he admitted that he does give her money but he did it because he's a quote soft hearted, giving person. then he admitted that he hadn't told his wife that he was such a giving person and won't make an official decision about whether or not he will continue in the campaign until he goes home and sees his wife. he's planning to speak to his wife about it in person tomorrow. he wants to do it face to face because he thinks more clearly when he's being hit over the head with a frying pan. so, that will be a fun friday night for the cains. honey, i'm home. i think herman cain is getting a raw deal. no one in the media is giving credit for remaining faithful to the same mistress for 13 years. big news for kids in afghanistan, where this morning "sesame street" went on the air. so, now the top two u.s. exports to afghanistan are carpet bombs

and elmo. how can they have "sesame street" in a country that doesn't have streets? they had a big publicity thing for the show in kabul yesterday. this is a real picture from it. is it me or does grover look nervous? [ laughter ] some of the characters on the show say it's not the same show we watch here. it's localized. instead of bert and ernie, they have burqa and ernie. and their teaching methods are a little different, too. >> you are watching "sesame street: afghanistan." >> hi there. here is the difference between near and far. okay, this is near. this is far. um -- did you hear that? yeah, i think that was a bomb.

i do not want to be here anymore. okay. this is near. ah! ah! this is far! >> "sesame street" is brought to you by the letter -- and the number squiggly line with dolts next to us. >> jimmy: and let this be a warning to nations around the world, engage in a war with us and we will invade your country and provide you with quality children's programming. [ laughter ] and one more thing. it's thursday night. it's time for our weekly tribute to the fcc where we bleep and blur things whether they need it or not. it is "this week in unnecessary censorship." >> dropped out of the race and set up a [ bleep ] frenzy among the other candidates. >> she's not the only other person that i have [ bleep ]. the only thing about this particular one is, yes, she happened to be female. >> sometimes when we [ bleep ],

we physically cannot stop. >> do you think you could [ bleep ] president obama? >> i think i stand by far the best shot of [ bleep ] president obama. >> the jackson family, who did not speak today in court, they looked at him and all mouthed the words [ bleep ] you. >> pretty nice [ bleep ], huh? >> very large. >> i think if you had [ bleep ] -- what is the one where you get the -- >> what? is that a disease? >> we all love super long [ bleep ] and many of us have had to turn to extensions. >> i'm excited. last week, i [ bleep ] world heavy weight champion. though i only held it for just a second, man that was the greatest feeling in the world. >> no one goes over my bridge unless you [ bleep ] my [ bleep ]. >> don't worry, we can [ bleep ] your [ bleep ]. will you [ bleep ] his [ bleep ]? great. >> jimmy: we have a good show for you tonight. from "nikita," maggie q is here.

spanish teacher with a song in his heart. his show is called "glee." it airs tuesday nights on fox and he has a cd, where he sings. his cd is called "matthew morrison." please say hello to matthew morrison. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: matt, first of all -- what does the title of your album mean? it's called "matthew morrison." what's the story behind that? >> i think it's very original. i don't think there's ever been an album called that before. >> jimmy: there probably hasn't. did you look it up? >> yes, i did. >> jimmy: you have unbelievable cosingers on this album. >> my costars, yes. >> jimmy: elton john. you say, i'm making an album and i would like elton john to be on it with me. >> yeah, well he has this big oscar party he does to benefit his aids foundation and he

invited me two years ago. i met him, we kind of hit it off. he was a big fan of the show and, you know, i think elton and the other one, sting -- >> jimmy: yeah. >> gordon sumner. i think they really like the show and they want to be apart of that next generation. >> jimmy: so you tricked them and told them they were going to be apart of the show. >> i did. >> jimmy: do you ask personally? >> i did. >> jimmy: and you are doing an elton john song and sting song, so, who picks the song? >> i do. >> jimmy: you pick the song. >> yes. the thing was, i -- i asked them if i could do their songs because i didn't think they would want to do any of mine, because frankly i'm talented as they are. and they said yes. i wanted to do a mashup of two songs with elton and he said, you can pick any song, just not "crocodile rock." i don't know why, but that's why he said. i spent three days going through

his whole repertoire which is, as you know, very massive. >> jimmy: vast. >> yeah. >> jimmy: and you said, you know what i love this song and the only thing that would make it better is if i would also on it. >> you don't do good enough work, >> jimmy: are you singing with them in the studio? >> yeah. >> jimmy: and it's got to be intimidating -- >> for them, i know. >> jimmy: to meet those guys is intimidating. and for them, of course. but then to sing, not only sing, but sing their songs. >> i know. no, it was quite a surreal experience. >> jimmy: what's wrong with you? >> i don't know. i like to be punished. i -- i was sitting in the studio and elton is in the booth, like, singing his song and he was s g singing and just hearing his voice and then -- i go in the studio, like, wow, just doesn't sound the same. but it's like, you know, that's -- you hear -- you know his voice on those songs. >> jimmy: it sounds the same,

then you have a problem, because you are -- >> if i sounded the same, i would be rich. >> jimmy: well, you can't get rich from having elton john and sting on your album, i don't know what you're going to do. >> you can't. >> jimmy: you can't? oh. and gwyneth paltrow is on it. >> she has a really good voice. >> jimmy: she does. and you went on tour to support this? >> i did. >> jimmy: was it fun? it seems fun. >> it was fun. it was -- you know, "glee" hiatuses are so short and i come from the theater world, did a bunch of broadway shows and i wanted to have that experience of being up on the stage again. but being on stage in a concert setting is so much different, because on stage you kind of have to earn the trust of the theater. you have to kind of win them

over. on the concert, you know, you are getting up, doing a song and if you just do a hip thing like that, everyone goes crazy and it's not even -- it's not justified and it's not earned at all. so -- but i'll take it. >> jimmy: you do it anyway. and tell everyone who you opened for. >> i was opening for new kids on the block and backstreet boys. [ cheers and applause ] and then it was me, matthew morrison. the tour was called nkotbsb. i called it nkotbsb-mm. >> jimmy: so you would come on and then an army of former teen eye domes would come on the stage and -- did the audience, they were -- >> it was crazy. you know, new kids on the block were huge in '89, that was thag biere

their biggest year and then in '99 was the backstreet boys. women from 45 all the way to 14. it was so eclectic and interesting. it was a party every night. >> jimmy: did you live on the tour bus? >> i did. i did the tour bus experience. >> jimmy: was that good? >> yeah. you know, i did it, i had backup singers and my singers were actually people i went to high school with. i hired them to be in my band and -- >> jimmy: could they sing? >> they could. thankfully. probably better than i can. >> jimmy: buddies from high school. >> but it was amazing. you grow so close with people. but the weirdest thing is, stopping at truck stops like at 4:00 a.m. in the morning. you see the most interesting people. >> jimmy: like what? >> big truckers and they all have big sure mthermoses that t fill with mountain dew. some guy was looking at me, like, hey, love your show. i was like -- [ laughter ]

>> jimmy: hi there, matthew morrison is here with us. you know him from the program "glee," which you are directing an episode? >> i just finished two days ago. >> jimmy: did you. >> yeah. >> jimmy: did they listen to you, as you are a cast mate and then suddenly the director? >> as an actor, you are not supposed to give another actor a note. >> jimmy: really? >> yeah, it's an unspoken rule. you didn't know that? >> jimmy: i'm not an actor. no wonder people get mad when i boss them around. >> that was the hardest part. but the thing is, i was just wearing a different hat. but the funniest part of that was, the first scene with jane lynch who plays sue sylvester, obviously, i was directing her and i came to give her a note and she held her finger up, she said, before you say anything, i just want to let you know, i just want to remind you that i have an emmy award and it was

just nominated for a people's choice award. you may commence. >> jimmy: did that change your note that you were to give? >> no, i drilled her. >> jimmy: you have to rule with an iron fist or they don't have your respect. but then they get you back. do other members of the cast direct the show? >> no, i was the only one. >> jimmy: well, that's all right. now they're all going to want to direct. >> probably. it was great. it was the christmas episode. wasn't a regular episode. they give me one of the biggest one of the year. we are doing this really cool thing, we're doing a christmas special within the episode of "glee" and it's a throwback and a tribute to the "star wars holiday special" and the judy garland christmas special. >> jimmy: i don't know that one, but i saw the "star wars" one. are they combined? >> they are combined. >> jimmy: you wanted to make it weirder? >> called up george lucas and he gave us chewbacca. there's only one guy that can

officially be chew baca and so he lived in northern california, they flew him in. >> jimmy: you get to keep him? >> no.

it and i went through different incarnations. somebody said to me, maggie, is it you are quickly because you are very quickly? i was like -- no. not in any way. because my last name is not quickly. >> jimmy: a newspaper just decided to leave -- >> talking about that region and talking about the top newspaper, like circulation 5 billion, you know what i'm saying? so one newspaper does it, the biggest one, everybody follows. >> jimmy: that makes it worse to me. who would be that audacious to just leave the rest of the letters off your name? >> it's not worth it. >> jimmy: people read it -- >> they wanted to capitalize off the asian side, too, which is very sweet. they wanted them to be like, you are asian and hours. so, the irish bit, gone. the white side, nah. >> jimmy: and in ireland, maybe you will be o 'quigley.

[ applause ] >> jimmy: making that transition -- i would be more nervous probably working in a place where -- a foreign country. was it intimidating? >> it was more nerve wracking because there, there's no unions, none of that, no sort of, like, my trailer has to be three stories and i have a park under it and land the helicopter on it. it's sort of like, we didn't even have trailers. >> jimmy: oh, you didn't? >> no, we had, like, a stool, without even a back. and if you fell asleep, you're screwed. just on the ground. >> jimmy: really? >> i was sit on the curb and eat my lunch. yeah, i mean, it was nothing like the way it is here. i got here and they're like, here's your trailer, your rose

petals. i was like, wow! i love this industry! >> jimmy: and you did a lot of physical stuff. >> i did. >> jimmy: and you did a lot of physical stuff working with jackie chan and now as nikita, which is a character that's been around for a long time. >> yeah. >> jimmy: you do a lot of fighting yet i feel like i could beat you up if i had to. [ laughter ] >> i don't think you feel that. >> jimmy: i outweigh you by 100 pounds. >> isn't it just strange -- >> jimmy: what? >> that things seem one way -- >> jimmy: they seem one way. you are wearing that arm thing and that makes you seem a little bit dangerous. >> it makes me feel like a princess. a warrior. >> jimmy: i'm trying to contain my muscles from ripping out of this jewelry. right? are you enjoying the show? >> i love the show. it's a lot of work. >> jimmy: you tweeted something that looked bad to me. this is a picture that you tweeted and tell us what happened here.
