Jimmy Kimmel asked Channing Tatum to recall the most memorable aspect of working with acclaimed film director Ron Howard, and Tatum replied that it involved being “bent over and taken from behind in a very sexual way” by Howard.
Tatum, who stars in The Dilemma, told Kimmel about the hands-on way Howard blocked out one of his intimate scenes with Winona Ryder, and how it made him feel.
“I can probably, honestly say, that I am one of the few, if not the only one, ever on the planet, as a male, has been bent over and taken from behind in a very sexual way by Ron Howard.”
Tatum added that Howard was “gentle,” as if he “had done it before.”
The Dilemma also stars Vince Vaughn, whose character says, "Electric cars are gay." The line drew criticism from voices including the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation and Anderson Cooper in the fall at the height of coverage surrounding LGBT teen suicides. Universal Studios removed the line from the trailer, but the company and Howard have refused to delete the line from the film.
Watch the interview with Jimmy Kimmel below. Tatum recounts the story around the 1:00 mark.
Move over, Jimmy Kimmel. Kathy Griffin is gunning to be Levi Johnston's campaign manager as he runs for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, and she even has a strategy all dreamed up.
"The campaign would be based on me being the first lady," the comedian, who once feigned a relationship with Johnston for laughs, told People magazine. "But it would also be based on a celebration of Levi trolling the town shirtless – or being photographed in the shower in various stages of undress."
While Kimmel offered his services (in jest) a week ago, Griffin points out that the former Playgirl model's mayoral bid is less about "pomp and circumstance" and more about "pomp and naked stance."
While Franklin Roosevelt had his Fireside Chats, Griffin foresees something less formal – and less-clothed – during Johnston's potential term.
"We would probably do shower chats," she says, while attending the Audi & Chopard Pre-Emmy Party at Cecconi's in Beverly Hills, "semi-nude, or nude, from our place in Wasilla. Frankly, I think that's his ticket."
Jimmy Kimmel is not afraid to take a political stance on his late-night talk show.
On Thursday's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the funnyman welcomed Levi Johnston by announcing that "He is to Sarah Palin what voicemail is to Mel Gibson," and proceeded to give the Wasilla, Alaska, mayoral candidate a collection of campaign gear.
"I would love to see you become the mayor," Kimmel insisted as he brought out several items with various campaign slogans. "I really would."
He showcased a blue baseball cap with "The Thrilla from Wasilla" on the front, a red, white and blue pin with "Wassup Wasilla?" written on it, followed by a bumper sticker reading "Elect me Mayor or I'll Date all Your Daughters." The final piece was a lawn sign with the words "Levi for Mayor – I'll Do the Job Naked" emblazoned on it.
But Kimmel admitted the gifts were an attempt to gain favor with Johnston, who, during the show, insisted he is up for the job, saying, "I think I would be the best mayor I can be."
"So whaddya think? Can I be part of the team?" Kimmel pleaded.
"I think I might make you campaign manager," Johnston replied. As for potential votes from the family of his former fiancé, he's not counting on the Palins. After the last breakup with Bristol, he says, "I think they kinda kicked me out now … permanently. "
Comedian Kathy Griffin sat down with Jimmy Kimmel last night on his late night show and told him about a new ‘movie’ project that she has completed. Entitled Kate is Enough, it is a parody of the mother of eight Kate Gosselin. Griffin enlisted the help of actor George Takei to play the role of Jon Gosselin and child actors to play the children.
The spoof is a takeoff of the TLC reality show Jon & Kate Plus 8. Kathy sports a Kate wig and her character catches Jon red handed with a girlfriend.
View the Kimmel video below, which includes the Kate is Enough footage at the 3:20 mark on the video slider.
