Nicolas Cage did his first national talk show appearance in 14 years, so Jimmy Kimmel had a lot of questions for the actor to make up for the lost time.
Did you know that Cage wanted to build a movie studio in Las Vegas, but Elon Musk got the money instead to build whatever he built?
Then there was the time that the Oscar winner was a winner at the roulette table. He turned $200 into $20,000 in 30 minutes. Does he still gamble? And what did he do with the money? You are going to want to hear what he did with the dinero.
Did Cage really have a two-headed snake? Yes, and the story of how he got it is epic.
Diane Kruger told Kimmel that Cage bought a cave full of bats, did he? I won’t answer the question, but I will tell you why he wanted it. He wanted to get naked with his ex-wife in it and drink Saki. That image made me think how can Nicolas Cage top himself in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent when the original is so much better than what anyone can come up with of him.
And finally, was Cage stalked by a mime? No, he was stalked by two of them. How did he react? He told the Jimmy Kimmel Live host, “That is just so weird. That is one of those things that made me ask the proverbial question, ‘Why?'”
With everything he told the ABC late night host, the fact that the double mime attack is what he considers weird is all you have to know about him. He is, and always will be, a legend.
And what is wrong with all of the bookers that haven’t booked Cage in 14 years? He is better than most of the guests that they have had on their shows. I hope this is the start of us seeing him on more talk shows, more often. I can listen to him go on and on.
