A few weeks ago, Jeremy Renner met his childhood idol at the premiere of Captain America: Civil War in London. But he told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show yesterday that he didn’t recognize him at first. In fact, he though Luke Skywalker was a homeless man because of the beard he has grown for the franchise. When someone told him that the bearded man was Mark Hamill, he peed a little in his pants and his co-star Elizabeth Olsen cried. Then he told the Star Wars favorite, “I had you on my underwear. Your face was on my underwear.” Instead of being weirded out by it because I am sure he has heard that a million times, the two exchanged action figures.
Even though Mark Hamill is in London filming Star Wars Episode VIII, he heard about this interview. How did he react it? He Tweeted, “Once @Renner4Real realized I wasn’t #HomelessHamill he rocked! I cried meeting #ElizabethOlsen too (but didn’t pee).” Even though he has been in four of the biggest movies of all time, he is still a nice warm dude who loves his fans. Proving the Force is strong with him.
Chris Evans was on The Tonight Show yesterday and he challenged Jimmy Fallon to a new game. That game is Frozen Blackjack or Chilly Willy as it was later named. Basically, you play a hand of Blackjack and who ever loses feels the freezer burn. That’s because they have to put the end of a funnel down there pants as the winner dumps a pitcher of ice cold water down his pants. The NBC late night host lost first and he couldn’t walk afterwards. Then Captain America suffered the same fate with the same consequence. When it was time for the final round, the stakes were higher. The loser had to have a multi-gallon bottle of ice water poured down their pants. It’s like he went through reverse puberty because I am not sure his balls will ever descend again.
Since I am sadist, I really hope they play this game more often. Let’s see if The Rock has the rocks for it.

Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon had too much time on their hands, so they recreated the Styx’s 1981 music video for Too Much Time On My Hands. I guess in the early ’80s they were still high from whatever stale drugs were left over from the ’60s, so their music videos were trippy and not in a good way.
But in a way that 35 years later, the NBC late night host and the Ant-Man could copy it. When you watch it, you think there is no way that the original was that horrible. Then you watch the original one and you see that it was. Making us wonder, why did they hate Disco so much when Rock bands were coming up with stuff like this. Plus, it makes me sad because Tommy Shaw and Styx did a lot of brilliant music like Renegade, Come Sail Away, Mr Roboto and What If, and this kind of nullifies all of those classic works.

Melissa McCarthy was on The Tonight Show yesterday and Jimmy Fallon challenged her to Lip Sync Battle. He won the first round by mouthing and acting out Melanie Safka’s I’ve Got A Brand New Pair Of Roller Skates. But she blew it out of the park when she lip synched Colors of the Wind from Pocahontas. It wasn’t as much the way she moved her lips as much as she everything; but the kitchen sink thrown at her and she kept on going as though none of that was happening. When the confetti stopped, there was no reason to ask the audience who won. It was obvious she was The Boss!
Yesterday on The Tonight Show, James Spader shared a story with Jimmy Fallon that is so classic, it is almost too crazy to be true.
Spader and John F Kennedy Jr went to high school together and remained friends. One time JFK Jr invited the Blacklist star to his house and they had a “festive day” together. As dinner time was approaching, Spader sat down on the couch and ate a whole bowl of pistachios. I guess that was too much for him because he wound up throwing them all up all over his dish at the dinner table when they were eating in front of his friend, his sister Caroline and their mother the former First Lady Jackie Onassis. The classy lady then told him, “Good shot, Jim!”
He then excused himself from the table to clean himself up. When he got back to the table, JFK Jr couldn’t stop laughing and was leaning back on his chair. His mother told him to stop because they were expensive. He didn’t and eventually the chair fell backwards, and he landed on the floor laughing. His mother was not amused and scolded him with, “Dammit John, if I told you once, I told you a dozen times, do not lean back in those chairs. Now see what’s happened. Look what you’ve done. It’s just so rude.” He bounced up with a huge grin and said, “Jimmy just threw up at the table!”
What an amazing story. You can’t nor would you want to make up an experience like that. But what an experience. To do something so disgusting in front of the classiest First Lady the US has ever had has to be something you can never live down. But it is an epic story you want to share with the world and I am so glad he did.
