>> dicky: From hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live."
tonight, we reveal "people's" sexiest man alive, alison brie,
and music from g-easy featuring blackbear.
And now, jimmy kimmel! >> jimmy: I'm the host jimmy.
Thanks for watching. Thanks for sharing a piece of
your life. We have so many important things
to get to, including "people's" sexiest man alive, waiting in
the wings. Identity top secret.
We all had to sign nondisclosure agreements to do this.
If anyone lets anything slip, we all go to jail.
Day 14 of the hashtag heard around the world, squattergate.
The president-reject is whining in the west wing.
He has canceled his plans to travel to mar-a-lago for
thanksgiving, he seems to be showing no sign that he's ready
to leave the white house. In fact, we hardly see him at
all anymore. He's not appeared in public
since Friday. And has been seen rarely since
elect day. And that might have something to
do with his hair. [ laughter ]
maybe you saw this over the weekend.
Briefly over the weekend people started to notice that his hair
is suddenly now white, it's completely white.
The carpet now matches the supremacy.
[ laughter and applause ] this is what his hair looked
like before the election. Now all of a sudden the color is
gone and we have no explanation. I'm not an expert on hair dye or
how it works but does it just disappear?
Do you have to reapply it every day like deodorant?
How does this happen all of a sudden?
Usually your hair doesn't suddenly turn white unless
you've seen a ghost. [ laughter ]
or maybe he saw a vampire. Trump's borat attorney at law,
rudy giuliani, is now fully in charge of the trump team legal
effort to try to turn this election around.
Multiple lawyers have dropped out.
Multiple cases have been dropped.
"the new york times" reported today that rudy has asked the
trump campaign to pay him $20,000 a day for his work.
Well, he's the gift that keeps on grifting, isn't he?
[ laughter ] that's a lot of money.
Rudy giuliani denies asking for that much.
He said trump told him they'd work it out at the end.
That's a good thing, that usually goes well.
Whether it be a contractor, a porn star, or the irs, donald
trump always pays his debts. [ laughter ]
I guess this explains why trump has been passing the maga hat
around, asking his fans to donate to his legal defense
fund. They are bombarding their
supporters with emails like this one that says, one thing has
become clear these last few days, I am the american people's
all-time favorite president. [ laughter ]
that's the one thing that's become clear?
[ laughter ] you just lost the election.
Of the two people running, you came in second.
And what you took from that is that you're our all-time
favorite president. You had to miss he does think
positive. I mean, tomorrow in georgia,
they will finish the recount that's going on there.
Tomorrow's also the trump campaign's deadline to request a
recount in wisconsin, and that is not cheap.
A recount in wisconsin would cost the trump campaign $8
million, which is why he's asking his supporters for $16
million. [ laughter ]
a little walking-around money on the side.
[ applause ] listen, the only way wisconsin's
getting $8 million from donald trump is if it has sex with him
63 times. [ laughter ]
the president's minions are working hard to poison the well.
Senator lindsey graham may have committed a crime.
The georgia secretary of state, who happens to be a republican,
said lindsey graham, senator from south carolina, he has
nothing do with georgia, called him and pressured him to throw
out ballots from certain counties.
Graham claims he was just calling to try to find out how
things work, and he called a number of other states, saying
the same thing. One day we'll get the real story
about lindsey graham. What we're seeing now makes no
sense at all. In the meantime he's spreading
conspiracy theories he knows are bogus and dangerous.
He's one of many republicans who still refuse to acknowledge
publicly that joe biden won the election.
Behind the scenes, though, it's a different story.
Lindsey graham better hope donald doesn't see this.
On the senate floor today, senator graham sauntered over.
You see he gave a congratulatory fist bump and pat to kamala
harris, our vice president-elect.
He's wearing a mask, he's fist bumping ckamala, almost like hes
an unscrupulous opportunist who bends whichever way the wind
blows. They're too frightened to do
this publicly. Come January, what do they think
trump's going to do, hit golf balls at them?
He's going to be a crazy old man yelling in florida.
Last week, republican senator chuck grassley disagreed with
trump and said joe biden should be getting the classified
intelligence briefings he is not getting.
Today, senator grassley tested positive for covid-19.
So -- maybe trump has some super-spreader powers we don't
know about. [ laughter ]
meanwhile, joe biden is moving forward.
He's reportedly told his advisers he doesn't want his
presidency to be consumed by investigations into trump's
corruption. Which is big of him.
But -- what about what I want? [ laughter ]
I at least want a mugshot out of this.
[ laughter ] I want to see trump in a
jumpsuit -- [ applause ]
-- that matches his skit. They say biden is likely to stay
out of those decisions and leave them to the next attorney
general. Unfortunately for trump the next
attorney general is john wick, and he is a vindictive son of a
bitch. [ laughter ]
on Thursday night, president barack obama is going to join us
here on our show -- [ cheers and applause ]
-- to talk about his new book "the promised land."
I've been reading this book. One of the things that's
interesting is, obama reminds us that before we had a donald
trump, we had a sarah palin who burst on the scene as a running
mate to john mccain. Obama credits sarah palin with
ushering in this new era of stupidity and justice for all.
Last night alaska's most notorious hockey mom stopped by
"hannity." >> there's proof after proof
after proof that he is a purveyor of untruths.
Urcountry has to be seekers of truth, we have to be willing to
follow truth. There are so many untruths
barack obama is leading people towards still.
>> jimmy: It's good to have her back, isn't it?
[ laughter ] it's so brazen.
It's remarkable. I think what she meant to say
was this. >> our country has to love
truth. We have to be seekers of truth.
We have to be willing to follow truth.
And there are so many untruths that donald trump is leading
people towards still. >> jimmy: That's better, right,
great to see you again, sarah. Now back into the igloo.
[ applause ] tonight on abc "the
bachelorette," tayshia moved one step closer to finding the man
she will definitely not marry. [ laughter ]
because of covid, this whole season has been -- they put them
all at a hotel in the desert. I think they're running out of
stuff to do. For the group date they did what
they call the grown-ass man challenge.
Which was just as dumb as it sounds.
[ laughter ] and also, once the words
"grown-ass man" were introduced, the people on the show could not
stop saying it. >> yeah, I think I'm, you know,
in the sort of upper echelon in terms of being a grown ass man.
>> does a grown ass man not compete in a physical
competition? >> I feel confident I'm a grown
ass man. >> that's not the kind of grown
ass man she needs to be with. >> all the confidence in being a
grown ass man. >> part of being a grown ass man
is being romantic. >> grown ass men have manners.
>> a grown ass man is kind. >> being a grown ass man --
>> in my mind, grown ass men don't do that thing.
>> I'm looking for a broken ass man.
>> I do not appreciate that as a man, as a grown ass man, right
now. [ laughter and applause ]
>> jimmy: Like an aquarium of imbeciles.
That would be a good show, right?
"aquarium of imbeciles" after "the bachelor."
much of the focus was on a bachelor named bennett, who
claims he went to harvard. When it came to the written test
portion of the grown-ass man challenge, bennett's results put
that pedigree into question. >> at what time will you get to
the date? Flip them over.
9:17, 9:17, 9:17, bennett? 9:07?
The correct answer is 9:17. >> the correct answer is 15.
>> spell limousine. Three, two, one.
Bennett forgot the "u." >> jimmy: He just got out of
one. I wonder if they edited that to
make it look worse. I would love to invite bennett
to take a quiz live on this show.
I think he deserves a make-up exam, right?
>> guillermo: Right, jimmy, yes, yes.
[ laughter ] >> jimmy: By the way, if he
fails, we'll take his harvard diploma away.
>> guillermo: All right, good idea.
>> jimmy: It's time for the main event.
Are you ready to meet the sexiest man alive?
[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: This year the 35th
anniversary of "people's" sexiest man alive issue, it
comes outed from. Even the president weighed in on
it today. He wrote, I won this election by
a lot. Maybe he did.
We're going to find out. The gorgeous hunk of man marble

Good to have you. Thanks for coming.

fantastic. >> thank you.
>> jimmy: Do you feel more pressure now to look good now
that you are the sexiest man alive?
>> I think the expectation now is -- it's a little
unreasonable. Just a little bit.
But it's a cool title to have. >> jimmy: How do you find out?
How does the news come to you? >> for me, I was in the car.
I was driving one of my boys -- we were going on an errand.
My publicist and my manager gives me a call.
You know, first thing -- they're on speakerphone.
Who are you with? I'm like, I'm with bryce.
He's like, okay, bryce is family, he can know.
Okay, cool. Because they keep this super,
super -- >> jimmy: Oh, yeah.
>> under lock and key. They told me the news and it was
a moment like, [ bleep ], really?
Me? [ laughter ]
yeah, you. They kind of had this little
banter back and forth. But it was a cool moment.
>> jimmy: I bet it was. Did bryce immediately start
making fun of you or did he wait?
[ laughter ] >> he waited until they hung up
the phone, then he immediately started cracking jokes.
[ laughter ] that's the thing.
Sexiest man, that's cool to everybody else, but anybody who
really knows you, that's just another way they can give jabs
to you. >> jimmy: Oh, yeah.
That's when you wish you had no friends.
>> exactly, exactly. With friends like this, why do
you need enemies? You don't need enemies with
friends like this. >> jimmy: You were excited, I
have to say I was also excited about this.
I don't know if you remember this, in January when you were
here, back in people were allowed to come see the show --
>> you guys are people. [ cheers and applause ]
>> jimmy: This happened. So I say all week, michael b.
Jordan will be here. Every time I've said it all the
women in the audience each night --
[ cheers and applause ] they did that.
They did that. >> that's pretty cool.
>> jimmy: I think you might be front-runner for sexiest man
alive this year. [ cheers and applause ]
>> amen. Somebody write it in.
Somebody. I love it.
>> jimmy: I am so pleased with myself.
[ cheers and applause ] I didn't just make a call, I
feel like I put it out in the universe and the universe said
yes, that's correct, he is the sexiest man.
>> that's how it should be. Throw it out in the universe and
conspire to make things happen. >> jimmy: My esp, extra sexiest
perception, only time I've used it but it really works.
All right, so you're the sexiest, and that's it, nobody's
going to challenge you. >> enjoy this one.
>> jimmy: In the magazine, well, first of all -- you know, each
year gets a sexy person. And look at that.
I happen to be the sexiest person --
>> what year was that? >> jimmy: No, this is this year.
>> oh, okay. >> jimmy: The sexiest
53-year-old in the world. [ cheers and applause ]
>> okay, all right. We're sharing that title.
I like that. >> jimmy: But I think even maybe
more rewarding for you is look, michael jordan is the tiny
little sexy person, and you're the big sexy person.
[ cheers and applause ] >> I'll take that.
I'm not going to have too many of those over m.J., I'm going to
take that one. >> jimmy: Maybe he will start
having to use his middle initial.
This is exciting. So besides being sexy, are you
working on a movie right now? Are you in quarantine?
What's going on? >> quarantine was definitely,
you know, a time I'm pretty sure everybody experienced it
differently. It was tough.
But, you know, I stayed working. I'm prepping for this movie I'm
doing with denzel washington. He's directing.
>> jimmy: Oh, a former sexiest man alive.
>> yeah, right? >> jimmy: Maybe future sexiest
man alive. >> yeah, bring him back around.
You know, he's directing this one.
It's called "journal for jordan."
I'm a soldier, playing a soldier.
It's a love story based on this woman named dana kennedy and her
relationship with her husband, who passed away.
He wrote a journal for his son that -- how to be a man, how to
treat a bomb. >> jimmy: Really?
Wow. >> how he met his mother.
Because he was afraid he wasn't going to make it back from the
war in afghanistan. It's a true story.
It's very emotional. And I'm honored to be taking on
this character. >> jimmy: I bet that's got to be
exciting. To be playing the character for
sure. >> yes.
>> jimmy: But also working with denzel washington.
I mean, do you ever get over the fact that it's denzel
washington? Because I have a lot of
celebrities that come here, and I will say, over and over again,
when he's here I think, oh, yeah, that's denzel washington.
>> I mean, you can't really -- I mean, it's denzel, right?
There's a part of you that's always kind of looking at him
like, man, that's lonzo from "training day."
that's the guy. And he's a mentor and idol.
But he doesn't like the praise. He's a very humble guy.
He puts his pants on one leg at a time, he'd be the first did to
tell you. Every so often he'll speak in
these -- not quotes, but you know, just -- just little quotes
here and there. You're like, oh, yeah that's
something denzel would say. Just like, you know -- "the rain
only comes down on Tuesday, but on Wednesday the sun will shine
again." everybody's like, oh, man,
that's profound. [ laughter ]
you try to figure out exactly what that means.
But, I mean, he's a solid guy, man.
Our relationship has definitely grown a lot.

to a mustache -- no, it's -- I never had time to actually sit
in one place and grow my facial hair where I didn't have to get

>> it is, it is. I was really excited about it.
It's pretty much the prequel and the origin story to "rainbow 6"
if you're familiar with that video game.
As a kid I played it a lot. It was exciting to take on the
role of john kelly/john clark. We shot it in germany right
before the pandemic kind of hit, so that was the last thing I
did. We spent all quarantine figuring
out new ways, how to edit and post and put that thing
together. We got it done.
It's coming out soon. On amazon.
[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: Did you enjoy germany?
>> germany's amazing. I always heard amazing things

drive on the autobahn. >> jimmy: Oh.
Did you do it? >> I had to.
I rented a lamborghini. >> jimmy: Oh, really.
Did they know why you were renting it when you were renting
it? >> I think they know when
tourists come, people come from out of town, they rent a really
exotic car? I think they know.
>> jimmy: "I'll take the insurance."
>> yeah, take the insurance on this one.
It was really cool, you really understand why they have such
low car accidents. In germany.
When you're actually speeding, people will get out of your way.
They know it. They're very courteous when
you're driving. Here everybody's all crazy,
they're in the passing lane, they're driving slow.

I think I maxed out -- >> jimmy: Miles per hour?

And the first clue things were awry when we pulled up, there
was like a large group of young women standing outside the
entrance of the hotel to which I was like, babe -- do people --
did you advertise we were coming?
Dave's a little bit of a heartthrob.
>> jimmy: Sure, yeah. >> did these women follow you
around to Italy? Is this what your shooting
experience has been like? He's like, I don't know.
When we were laying by the pool there were helicopters and
drones. I'm like, this place has really
changed, I don't know what happened.
Hours go by, it's 5:00 p.M. No one's there.
Everyone's left. Dave and I are the last people
at the pool. We're buried in our books.
I sort of hear a young gentleman come out to the pool.
I hear him order some food. I'm always eavesdropping on
people by the pool. If you ever see me at a pool, I
can't help it. I'm trying to read, but
meanwhile I'm like, she's divorcing him?
After he bought her those boobs? What?
No way! Oh my god.

I'm like, penne pasta, good choice.
>> jimmy: That's what he ordered?
>> that's what he ordered which was confirmed.
The guy gets in the pool. I can't see him, I've been

This guy is just in the pool swimming and singing.

pasta. [ laughter ]

>> jimmy: What? >> but hours later, you know,
dave and I are like brushing our teeth, getting ready for bed.
The two of us just -- ♪ penne pasta
to this day we're just like -- it was catchy.
He's got a gift for music. [ laughter ]
my opinion. >> jimmy: That's not the song he
did at the people's choice awards?
>> it's not, no. >> jimmy: Okay.
>> but I wouldn't write it off. [ laughter ]
that single comes out I'm going to be like, I was there at the
impetus. >> jimmy: Wouldn't it be great
if he just puts that song on an album and people are like,
there's something wrong, I think, with justin bieber?
>> I don't know, it's catchy. I'm telling you, I've been
singing it for toward years. [ laughter ]
>> jimmy: It's gone on for quite some time.
♪ pennepenne pasta >> jimmy: You're in this
christmas movie, huge cast. >> kristen stewart.
Mckenzie davis. Mary stein bear jen.
Victor garber. Dan levy.
>> jimmy: Lots of people. >> you name them, they're in
this. >> jimmy: When do you shoot this
christmas movie? >> we shot it in pittsburgh in
February right before everything shut down.
>> jimmy: It's nowhere near christmas?
>> well, it was right after christmas.
>> jimmy: Even worse in a way, even worse.
People are really drained of christmas, right?
>> it was endless christmas for all of us.
>> jimmy: Twan endless christmas.
>> in the snow in pittsburgh. It was great.
>> jimmy: You were able to get into the spirit even though it's
February, or not? >> definitely.
We could get in the spirit. I mean, my character is very
upigt tight. So I play mckenzie davis' elder
sister. We're very competitive with one
another. And so I didn't really have to
get into the christmas spirit as much, because we're sort of like
really contending for our parents' love and affection.
And to just -- basically escalates throughout the whole
film until fulfills fighting. >> jimmy: You and dave made a
couple movies together? >> yeah.
>> jimmy: One of them came out over the summer.
>> yes, the movie that dave wrote and directed, "rental."
>> jimmy: Did you find that you worked well together?
>> yeah. >> jimmy: You did, okay, good.
Sometimes people don't, you know?
>> oh no. We -- you know, dave and I are
very similar in terms of wanting to do a lot of prep work.
We like to really prepare. >> jimmy: How do you prepare?
How did you prepare? >> well, jimmy, it's interesting
that you ask. [ laughter ]
>> jimmy: Yes, isn't it? >> you know, for dave's movie
"the rental," there's -- it's a group of people away on a
vacation, they end up all doing molly.
Which is sort of like -- >> jimmy: My wife?
[ laughter ] >> no, no.
>> jimmy: Oh, the drugs? >> it's a drug, it's a drug.
>> jimmy: Okay. Well.
I've got to see this movie! Seems like you should have told
me this off the air. >> I don't know if everybody can
relate to this, only jimmy. So to prepare for the movie, you
know, dave really wanted it to be very realistic.
And my performance, my character, does molly in the
movie. >> jimmy: Okay.
>> in the nerdiest way we sort of booked a hotel room in ojai,
cleared our schedules, went out there, had a little molly are
'twas the night we were going to do it, we had a whole plan.
And then something happened. There was a work emergency.
And dave was going to have to be on these calls all night.
He's the director of the movie, he's putting in prep, getting it
together. We sat there, I guess you can't
do the molly. He's like, I don't know, there's
no time, we start shooting in the week, there's no other time
to do the molly -- you're going to have to do it yourself.
[ laughter ] and I was like -- okay.
So then the rest of the night it was just me on molly.
In a hotel room. And dave's like out on the
balcony on work calls or watching basketball.
And I was just dancing in the hotel room for like five hours
being like, I don't know if I'm feeling it!
I'm not feeling it! >> jimmy: What?
[ laughter ] that's supposed to happen in the
movie, not in the real-life part of it.
>> it happened in the movie too. We did both.
>> jimmy: It's very good to see you.
The movie is called "happiest season."
it's on hulu starting a week from tomorrow.
