[ laughter ] spill-f a word? >> steve: it must be. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: spill-f is a word?

>> steve: the vice president said it, it must be. >> jimmy: all right. did you guys hear this? lindsay lohan's lawyer, robert shapiro, who was famous for representing o.j. simpson -- he quit just a few hours before she went to jail. [ light laughter ] that's gotta sting when your lawyer goes, "i can't handle you anymore. why can't you be more like o.j. simpson?" [ laughter and applause ] "just too much for me." this is an amazing story. a black couple in britain just had a white baby girl with blond hair and blue eyes. the father called the baby "simply unexplainable."

[ laughter ] speaking of facebook, there is a new computer program that can delete all mentions of your ex from your facebook page. yeah, the program is called, "your new girlfriend."

you know, he's a hero of mine. and he comes up to me and he's like, "you know why i named your character nick?" and i'm thinking, "oh, my god. i'm a filmmaker, i'm an actor. i'm about to get a little piece of advice. i'm going to remember, why does he name the characters what he names them." and he goes, "do you know why i named your character nick?" and i said, "no." he goes, "easy to type."

he makes, like, $303 million, and then is completely lost with what to do with the rest of his life. and so, he stumbles into an s&m parlor to see what that's like.

she's in charge of making sure we say it perfectly. so, she's like, "if you get it perfect, i'll give you a sticker."

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: so you insult each other? >> we insult each other. "that's it! i'm not doing this anymore." and then, in a week, "i'm sorry."

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: they don't know your names? they just call you "guys"? >> actually, people do. it's different in new zealand, the way people treat you. everyone thinks they're your friend if they see you on tv.

[ light laughter ] >> jimmy: it wasn't meant to be funny.

it was meant to be dramatic. you play an artist. >> an artist. >> jimmy: an artist. sorry, i had trouble getting the word out. you play an artist. you do just crazy art in this movie. how would you describe your artwork? >> kind of crazy. [ laughter ] i'd say kind of crazy. >> jimmy: i did my googling. >> a lot of imagery and melting and mixing human and animal imagery. it's the place betwixt animal and human. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: right now i'm stuck betwixt a rock and a hard place because i was gonna ask you another question to describe your character. 'cause you are very kind of -- >> sensual. >> jimmy: sensual. you are very good at recognizing the -- >> word.

>> jimmy: next word, yeah.
