Kimmel live. I am your guest host for the night. Brie larson. [cheers and applause] thank you. Jimmy couldnt be here tonight. Hes recovering at home. And jimmy, if youre watching, were thinking of you, and wish you the best of luck with your new butt implants. Actually, jimmy had a big primetime special with norman lear tonight. So he asked me to fill in. He told me to make myself at home. So i went into his office, took off my bra, and drunkordered a bunch of quilts on etsy. This is an interesting place to come into work. Right outside that door is the hollywood walk of fame, which is overflowing with tourists and people dressed as superheroes. Today i got to see what captain marvel would look like as a chainsmoking old man in a wig. Yeah, and it as still kinda hot. 2019 has been pretty big for me. [cheers and applause] thank you. Between captain marvel and avengers endgame, my films grossed almost 4 billion dollars this year. [cheers and applause] yeah. And tonight, im getting 800 bucks and a plate of hummus. Yes, it was a huge honor to be the first woman to ever headline her own marvel movie, to break that vibranium ceiling. [cheers and applause] but there are so many other great female superheroes right now. Wonder woman, black widow, nancy pelosi were unstoppable. [cheers and applause] right, guillermo . Right, thats right. Jimmy thats right. Im just curious. Whos your favorite female superhero . Wonder woman. Brie oh, is it because i didnt say hi when i walked out . Yeah. Brie they reminded me, but then i went towards the clapping hands, im sorry. You know, ive never had a sidekick before. What is it that you do exactly . Almost nothing. Brie cool, you have my dream job. So were going to have fun tonight. They let me pick my own guests and i picked you some good ones. He is my costar in the upcoming film just mercy. The great jamie foxx is here. [cheers and applause] jamie is so many things. But, he is a triple threat. He can act, he can sing and he can look 35 for the last twenty years. And from one of my alltime favorite shows 90 day fiance, i am totally obsessed with her. Molly hopkins is here. [cheers and applause] i cannot wait to talk to her. I have never been this excited about anything, and i won an oscar. But before we get to all that, id like to address the big story of the day. Ive always been someone who speaks out about important issues. And while you may not agree with what im about to say, i feel it must be said. As you know, this is a major moment in american history. There is something happening right now, that is dividing this country like never before. And that is the movie cats. Yeah. Its coming out in two days, and i believe that we, as a nation, are not fully prepared. This movie is going to shake us to our core. I mean, look at this. Tonight is a magical night. Where i choose the cat that deserves a new life. [ laughter ] brie that is insane, and i was in a movie with a talking raccoon. It looks like a dream youd have if you smoked meth in a petco. And i know im going to love every second of it. Ive always been a sucker for movies based on musicals based on poems based on housepets. This is big. This is the year we will finally get the chance to sit in a dark room with strangers, and watch sir ian mckellan poop in a box. I wonder how this project even came to be. I just imagine some executive thought, cats, theyre adorable, but you know what theyre missing . Boobs. Weird cat boobs. But the most important question is how the hell am i not in this movie . They asked literally everyone else in hollywood. Taylor swift, idris elba, jason frickin derulo. I want in. Ill do whatever it takes. Ill slurp milk from a bowl. Ill get stuck on top of the fridge. Ill put a dead bird in your slipper. Ill have babies under your porch. Look, we have 48 hours to get me in this movie. And i will not rest until im in a damn unitard, chasing a laser pointer with dame judy dench. Whos with me . [cheers and applause] oh, wow. Oh, yeah, and oh, yeah, the president just got impeached. Of all the nights to be here. Poor jimmy. Hes been talking about this for what . Seventy years . And i guest host for one night, and boom, the president s impeached. [ applause ] what can i say . I guess, women just get [ bleep ] done. Okay, now who wants to watch a dumb Youtube Video . [cheers and applause] the guy youre about to see somehow got a frog in his car while he was driving down the highway. And instead of pulling over, he started filming it on his phone. Which gave us a new edition of this week in florida. Dont look at me. Dont [ bleep ] look at me. Ooh, dont you do it. No, dude [ laughter ] brie oh, god. Wow. He will be missed. Are you all in the holiday spirit yet . [cheers and applause] the holidays dont always go great for me. A few years ago, i actually got my appendix taken out on Christmas Day. For real. And then i regifted it. Wrapped that sucker up, gave it to my uncle russ. One of the best parts of the holidays is the music. There are thousands of christmas songs, and thats great, but they also leave a lot of people out. And i dont like anyone to feel excluded. So i hired a kids choir to perform a holiday song that has a Little Something for everyone. You wanna hear it . [cheers and applause] wonderful all right please say hello to the allinclusive, nondenominational merriment choir. Its that magical season that we all cheer all of the holidays this time of year so light your menorah and hitch up your sleigh lets sing for all the holidays Merry ChristmasMerry Christmas lets gather round the tree joyful kwanza its time for kwanza you can wear your dashiki on to hanukkah glorious hanukkah your menorah shines so bright then its new years happy new year youll tongue kiss a stranger tonight brie oh, yeah, that was great.

Shes no, dad, you messed up. Dont tell me anything. But, you know what . Its amazing to see your kid, like, to grow up and fulfill the dream and like, she didnt want me to tell her anything. Which, i thought was dope, and you know, i got spies on the set. And, you know, they face time and say she killin, fingers crossed, man, that she knocks it out the park. Brie shes doing great. And your daughtother daughter p sports. Shes 57 and 11 years old and plays basketball with the boys. Last week she had 16 points, 12 rebounds. She completely different. Brie do you help her at all . Do you coach . I coach. And im the worst coach in the world. I get so excited. Im literally at halfcourt. Come on, come on. And the only reason they dont kick me off the court is because, well, im jamie foxx. Brie right, yes. So do you everybody get, do you take an opportunity to give some inspirational monologue . No, youre just nervous. You want her to do great. But literally, the referees are like, literally, the ref walks up, i love jango, but get off the court. My daughter didnt like basketball at first, but then, this has to do with me, i think. She hits the basket to tie the game up to go into overtime. And the crowd went crazy. And she looked at that, and then she started coaching the team, the whole nine, thats when she fell in love with the game. Brie wow, thats incredible. Yeah, you can clap for that. Brie yeah. Thats amazing. One of my other guests tonight is from a show thats my guilty pleasure. When i say guilty pleasure, i mean i hide in my car and watch it on my ipad. Right.

Im texting him, and hell actually say, first of all, jamie foxx just texted me. Hes dying over there with the damn cowboys. I cant stand them damn cowboys. So i think espn is every guys dream, i think. Brie yeah, interesting. Its not my dream, but im glad you have one. I hear people watch espn, thats really interesting. Got to find your passion. Brie this was a leading question, because i thought you might say the masked singer. Oh, yes. Brie i was pretty convinced you were unavailable for it because you were on the masked singer the whole time. That was a Conspiracy Theory that i had started. Listen, man, you never know, but i tell you, everybody thinks im on the masked singer ill be in traffic, come on, dog, i know youre the masked singer. Even my moms like, are you the mask the singer . I got 200 dollars on this. But you never know, man. Brie what do you mean you never know. Do you know . I actually do know, but im sworn to secrecy. [ laughter ] brie uhhuh, uhhuh. Oh, this is good.
