CENTER IN THE HEART OF
NEW YORK CITY, IT'S
"THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING

TONIGHT JOIN JIMMY AND HIS
GUESTS -
RICKY GERVAIS,
DAISY EDGAR-JONES,
MUSICAL GUEST THE AVETT
BROTHERS
AND FEATURING THE LEGENDARY

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
>> Jimmy: HEY, HELLO
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU.
GOOD TO SEE YOU GUYS
OH, MY GOODNESS.
♪
OH, THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
EVERYBODY.
WELCOME, WELCOME, WELCOME,
WELCOME TO "THE TONIGHT SHOW."
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
WELL, GUYS, IT'S BEEN A PRETTY
EPIC 24 HOURS.
JOE BIDEN WAS CERTIFIED AS OUR
NEXT PRESIDENT
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
SEVERAL STAFFERS HAVE RESIGNED
FROM THE WHITE HOUSE
TRUMP'S SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS
WERE BANNED.
AND YET, COMPARED TO YESTERDAY,
IT'S A SLOW NEWS DAY
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
I'M STILL TRYING TO PROCESS
EVERYTHING
DID ANYONE ELSE HAVE A TOUGH
TIME CALMING DOWN LAST NIGHT
IT WASN'T EASY FALLING ASLEEP.
I TRIED LISTENING TO MY
MEDIATION APP, BUT THE GUY
LEADING THE SESSION WAS JUST
CHANTING, "25th AMENDMENT,
25th AMENDMENT."
[ LAUGHTER ]
HONESTLY, DON'T YOU JUST WISH
WE COULD GO BACK TO THE GOOD
OLD DAYS WHERE ALL WE HAD TO
WORRY ABOUT WAS A GLOBAL
PANDEMIC AND MURDER HORNETS?
[ LAUGHTER ]
2021 FEELS LIKE THE END OF A
A "SCOOBY DOO" EPISODE WHERE WE
PULL OFF ITS MASK TO REVEAL
IT'S BEEN 2020 ALL ALONG
[ LAUGHTER ]
GOD, I MISS 2020
THINGS ARE SO CRAZY, TODAY
MEXICO WAS LIKE, "IF YOU NEED
A WALL AROUND YOUR CAPITOL,
WE'LL PAY FOR IT."
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
MEANWHILE, SOME OF THE RIOTERS
CLAIMED THEY DIDN'T REALIZE
THAT THEY WERE TRESPASSING
SADLY, NOT MANY PEOPLE WERE
CHARGED BECAUSE THE POLICE SAID
IT WAS ALL WHITE
[ AUDIENCE GROANS
I THINK IF THERE'S ANYTHING TO
BE LEARNED FROM YESTERDAY, IT'S
THAT MERRICK GARLAND CAN'T HAVE
ONE FUN DAY.
I MEAN, FIRST HIS SUPREME COURT
NOMINATION GETS BLOCKED, THEN
HE GETS A NEW JOB AND A RIOT
HAPPENS.
SERIOUSLY, WHAT DID THIS GUY DO
IN A PREVIOUS LIFE, KICK OVER
STROLLERS?
ANYWAY, LATE LAST NIGHT,
CONGRESS RECONVENED AND
COMPLETED THE CERTIFICATION OF
THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES.
[ APPLAUSE ]
YEAH
AND ALL JOKES ASIDE, I THOUGHT
IT WAS SO COOL THAT CONGRESS
CAME BACK AND DIDN'T LET THOSE
LOSERS WIN
I THOUGHT IT WAS A PRETTY
POWERFUL MESSAGE TO SEND
BUT BECAUSE OF ALL THE CHAOS,
PENCE OFFICIALLY AFFIRMED
BIDEN'S VICTORY AT 3:45 IN THE
MORNING.
AFTER THE WIN WAS CERTIFIED,
BIDEN WAS LIKE, "GEE, THANKS
CAN'T WAIT TO TAKE OVER THIS
PARADISE."
[ LAUGHTER ]
THAT'S RIGHT, CONGRESS WORKED
THROUGH THE NIGHT AND CONFIRMED
BIDEN'S VICTORY AROUND
4:00 A.M
YEAH, WE RECOGNIZED THE
ELECTION OF THE WORLD'S MOST
POWERFUL PERSON WHEN CABLE
CHANNELS WERE SHOWING
INFOMERCIALS
PENCE WAS LIKE, "I HEREBY
DECLARE JOE BIDEN AS THE
WINNER
AND NOW STAY TUNED FOR AN
INFOMERCIAL FOR MARIE OSMOND'S
BODYGYM.
[ LAUGHTER ]
"YOU DON'T EVEN FEEL LIKE
YOU'RE SWEATING.
TODAY, FOR THE FIRST TIME,
PRESIDENT TRUMP FINALLY
ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE WILL BE
AN "ORDERLY TRANSITION" OF
POWER ON JANUARY 20th.
WHEN TRUMP SAYS THERE WILL BE
AN "ORDERLY TRANSITION," HE
MEANS AN ORDERLY IS GONNA HAVE
TO DRAG HIM OUT THE FRONT DOOR
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
"GET HIM OUT OF HERE!"
THE REASON ONE OF TRUMP'S AIDES
TWEETED THAT MESSAGE FOR HIM IS
BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT WAS
BANNED FROM ALL OF HIS SOCIAL
MEDIA ACCOUNTS, INCLUDING
TWITTER, FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM
AND EVEN SNAPCHAT.
IN OTHER NEWS, GUESS WHO
DOESN'T WANT TO BAN TIKTOK
ANYMORE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
REALLY LOVE TIKTOK
WITHOUT TWITTER, IT WAS PRETTY
EMBARRASSING FOR TRUMP
HE WAS WALKING AROUND THE WEST
WING WITH A PIECE OF PAPER AND
A HEART STAMP, YELLING, "LIKE
THIS
LIKE THIS!
SINCE YESTERDAY'S RIOT,
RESIGNATIONS HAVE POURED IN AT
THE WHITE HOUSE, AND SOURCES
EXPECT THEY'LL KEEP COMING
ALTHOUGH, RESIGNING WITH TWO
WEEKS LEFT FEELS LESS LIKE SOME
MORAL STAND AND MORE LIKE
LEAVING EARLY TO BEAT TRAFFIC.
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
MY QUESTION IS, HOW DO YOU PUT
IN YOUR TWO WEEKS' NOTICE WHEN
YOUR JOB ENDS IN LESS THAN TWO
WEEKS?
[ LAUGHTER ]
AND I READ THAT ACCORDING TO
HIS CLOSEST ALLIES, TRUMP IS
QUOTE "MENTALLY UNREACHABLE"
WHILE ANOTHER SOURCE BELIEVES
THE PRESIDENT IS "OUT OF HIS
MIND."
IF ANY MORE NEWS
FROM 2016 BREAKS THROUGHOUT THE
NIGHT, WE'LL BE SURE TO KEEP
YOU UPDATED.
HOW DO YOU LOOK AT FOUR YEARS
OF TRUMP AND JUST NOW ARE LIKE,
"I'M STARTING TO THINK THIS GUY
IS NUTS"
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
YOU GUYS CATCHING A VIBE
TODAY, BOTH CHUCK SCHUMER AND
NANCY PELOSI CALLED FOR PENCE
TO PURSUE THE 25th AMENDMENT
AND REMOVE TRUMP FROM OFFICE
IF THAT HAPPENED, WE'D HAVE
THREE PRESIDENTS IN 13 DAYS.
I LOVE THE IDEA OF CHANGING
PRESIDENTS LIKE MOVIE BATMANS.
LET'S GET TO SOME LIGHTER NEWS
I SAW THAT DISCOVERY HAS
CONFIRMED THE "PUPPY BOWL" WILL
GO ON AS SCHEDULED THIS YEAR
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
"PHEW," SAID ABSOLUTELY NO ONE
THE "PUPPY BOWL" IS THE ONE
EVENT THAT BRINGS EVERY
AMERICAN TOGETHER TO THINK,
"WHY?"
AND FINALLY, IN NEW JERSEY,
POLICE RESPONDED TO
A McDONALD'S PARKING LOT WHERE
CHICKENS WERE CHASING CUSTOMERS
AND WREAKING HAVOC
I THINK THIS EXPLAINS WHY
TODAY, TRUMP RELEASED
A MESSAGE, SAYING, "I LOVE YOU
CHICKENS, BUT IT'S TIME TO GO
HOME."
WE HAVE A GREAT SHOW, GIVE IT
UP FOR THE ROOTS, EVERYBODY!
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
>> Jimmy: WE HAVE A GREAT SHOW

SOME PENCILS HAVE DISAPPOINTED
[ DING ]
LET'S JUST SAY
LET'S JUST MOVE ON
HERE WE GO
LAST ONE, RICKY.
THEN I'M LEAVING YOU ALONE
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING
THIS
HERE WE GO
[ BEEPING
THIS IS -- I DON'T KNOW IF WE
HAVE TIME FOR THIS
SPACE EXPLORATION.
>> I MEAN, IT DEPENDS FOR WHO.
I LIKE THE IDEA THERE'S A SPACE
PROGRAM AND I LOVE THE FEAT
THAT WE'VE BEEN OVER
SATELLITES AND, YOU KNOW,
HUBBLE TELESCOPE AND WE PUT
A MAN ON THE MOON.
IT'S INCREDIBLE.
IT MAKES ME LAUGH AS WELL.
WHEN YOU SEE MEMBERS OF LIKE,
THE HUMAN RACE TAKING CREDIT
FOR THINGS THAT A FEW PEOPLE
DID.
LIKE, SUDDENLY THESE PEOPLE GO,
"WE PUT A MAN ON THE MOON.
I GO, WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE?
YOU LIVE IN A [ BLEEP ] BIN.
YOU COULDN'T EVEN POINT TO THE
MOON
SO STOP TAKING CREDIT FOR
THINGS THE REST OF MANKIND HAVE
DONE
>> Jimmy: YOU HAD NOTHING TO DO
WITH THE MOON LANDING.
>> I DID NOTHING NOTHING
AND I THINK IT'S -- YOU KNOW,
IT'S GREAT AS A SCIENCE
PROGRAM.
THEY ARE BRINGING IN THIS THING
WHERE I WAS OFFERED ON ONE OF
THESE THINGS TO GO IN SPACE FOR
15 MINUTES
AND IT WAS LIKE A GROUP OF LIKE
BILLIONAIRES AND THEY OFFERED
ME A CHANCE TO BE THE FIRST
COMEDIAN TO DO A STAND-UP SHOW
IN SPACE
AND I WENT, NO, I'M NOT GOING
TO RISK -- THAT'S MAD.
I'M CAREFUL CROSSING THE ROAD.
ALSO, THESE PEOPLE THAT PAY
LIKE $300,000 TO GO IN SPACE,
AND THEY LOOK AROUND, THEY GO,
AND HERE'S RICKY GERVAIS DOING
TEN MINUTES.
NOW THEY CAN WATCH ME ON
YOUTUBE AND NOW THEY'VE BLOWN
$300,000
LOOK OUT THE WINDOW.
THAT'S THE OTHER THING
LET'S GO INTO SPACE.
AND YOU LOOK UP.
WE'RE IN SPACE
WE'RE IN SPACE NOW
WE'RE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE.
THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN SEE
THAT YOU CAN'T SEE FROM HERE
IT'S LIKE ME GETTING OUT OF THE
CHAIR AND GOING OVER THERE AND
GOING, I CAN SEE THE CHAIR FROM
HERE
YOU WERE IN THE CHAIR.
THERE'S NOTHING.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO FIND -
WELL, WE MIGHT FIND A NEW
PLANET
WHERE IS THIS PLANET
IT'LL TAKE YOU ABOUT
1,000 YEARS TO GET THERE
WHAT DO THEY EXPECT A FIND WHEN
THEY FREEZE AND THEY GO THERE?
THEY EXPECT TO FIND THIS -- AN
AMAZING RACE OF THINGS THAT
TELLS US THE SECRETS OF THE
UNIVERSE
AND YOU WILL GET THERE AND IT'S
LIKE -- YOU GO, OH, IS THERE --
HOW CAN WE CURE EVERYTHING
AND THEY GO --
[ GROWLING ]
"WE'RE SPACE -- WE'RE
ABSOLUTE -- WE'RE MORONIC.
SO IT WON'T BE WHAT PEOPLE
THINK.
IT WILL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS
PEOPLE THINK
SO JUST STAY AT HOME AND WATCH
NETFLIX "AFTER LIFE.
>> Jimmy: WE'RE IN SPACE
>> YEAH, WE'RE RIGHT IN THE
[ BLEEP ] MIDDLE OF IT
[ DING ]
>> Jimmy: THAT'S ALL THE TIME
WE HAVE FOR "WHEEL OF
OPINIONS!"
MY THANKS AGAIN TO
RICKY GERVAIS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
YOU CAN WATCH HIS SHOW "AFTER
LIFE" ON NETFLIX
OH MY GOSH, MY FACE HURTS YET
AGAIN.
YOU'VE DONE IT
RICKY, THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING
HERE
I NEEDED A LAUGH
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE
"TONIGHT SHOW," EVERYBODY.
CHEERS, BUDDY.
♪
>> Jimmy: MY NEXT GUEST IS ONE
OF THE BREAKOUT STARS OF THE
SERIES, "NORMAL PEOPLE," WHICH

HERE IS, DAISY EDGAR-JONES
DAISY, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
DOING OUR SHOW
WHERE ARE YOU RIGHT NOW?
>> I AM IN VANCOUVER ON MY
FIFTH DAY OF QUARANTINE.
>> Jimmy: WOW.
>> I'M FILMING A MOVIE WHICH IS
REALLY COOL, BUT I'VE ACTUALLY
GOT TO QUARANTINE FOR TWO WEEKS
BEFORE WE CAN START.
>> Jimmy: OF COURSE.
>> SO YEAH, IT'S VERY STRANGE.
I'VE BEEN WITH MYSELF NOW FOR
A WHILE.
SO, SORRY IF I'M A LITTLE BIT
ODD.
>> Jimmy: OH NO, YOU'RE NOT
ODD.
NO, PLEASE
I MEAN, BRING IT ON, BRING ODD
WE LOVE ODD.
HAVE YOU GOT SEE VANCOUVER AT
ALL?
IT'S BEAUTIFUL
>> YEAH, I MEAN, IT LOOKS
REALLY, REALLY COOL FROM MY
WINDOW
I'VE BEEN STARING AT LOADS OF
PEOPLE PASSING BY.
>> Jimmy: WAIT, SO YOU HAVEN'T
LEFT -
OF COURSE NOT, IT'S QUARANTINE
>> NO, I WISH I BROUGHT
BINOCULARS BECAUSE IT WOULD
HAVE BEEN GREAT TO DO SOME
PEOPLE WATCHING, BUT IT LOOKS
REALLY, REALLY BEAUTIFUL
AND I'M VERY EXCITED TO
EXPLORE.
>> Jimmy: WELL, THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR TALKING TO US
YOU KNOW, I FOLLOW YOU ON THE
SOCIALS AND I SAW A POST OF
YOURS DURING QUARANTINE.
I SAW THAT YOU WERE LISTENING
TO AL GREEN ON VINYL
ARE YOU INTO VINYL ON RECORDS?
>> YES
>> Jimmy: I LOVE THIS.
>> I ABSOLUTELY LOVE VINYL SO,
SO MUCH.
YEAH, I LOVE VINYLS.
ARE YOU INTO VINYLS?
>> Jimmy: YES, I LOVE IT, I
MEAN, BUT I'M MUCH, MUCH OLDER
THAN YOU
HOW DID YOU GET INTO VINYL
>> YEAH, WELL, MY PARENTS HAVE
A LOAD OF THEM
AND SO I BOUGHT A RECORD
PLAYER, I BOUGHT ONE FOR MY
BIRTHDAY REALLY.
AND SO IT'S REALLY COOL CAUSE
I'VE GOT LOADS OF MY PARENTS
KIND OF --
THE SOUND TRACK OF THEIR
CHILDHOOD AND THEIR TEENAGE
YEARS, WHICH IS REALLY COOL.
SO I'VE GOT MY DAD'S "DARK SIDE
OF THE MOON" ALBUM
AND IT'S GOT -
I KNOW, IT'S GREAT, ISN'T IT
THE FIRST TIME I LISTENED TO
THAT, I WAS LIKE, OH MY GOSH,
HAD A BIT OF AN AWAKENING.
IT WAS JUST -- I JUST LISTENED
TO IT THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH.
AND IT HAS QUITE A FEW
SCRATCHES ON IT.
AND I QUITE LIKE THE IDEA THAT
I'M LISTENING TO IT THE EXACT
SAME WAY MY DAD WOULD HAVE
BECAUSE HE WOULD HAVE HAD THAT
BEAT IN THE SONG WHEN HE
LISTENED TO IT
>> Jimmy: WOW, OH.
THAT'S PRETTY COOL
HE WOULD HAVE HAD THE SAME SKIP
WHEN HE LISTENED TO IT
>> YEAH, SO WE BOTH KNOW THE
SONG WITH THAT SKIP.
>> Jimmy: THERE'S SOME ROMANCE
TO THAT.
YEAH
SPEAKING OF MUSIC, I ALSO HEARD
YOU HAVE BEEN WORKING ON YOUR
DJ SKILLS.
>> YEAH, IT'S REALLY COOL.
I WAS FILMING SOMETHING IN THE
SUMMER AND I WAS ISOLATING WITH
MY FRIEND, WHO'S A REALLY
GOOD -- WELL, HE'S AN EXCELLENT
HOUSE DJ
SO, I WAS WATCHING HIM DO IT
AND I WAS LIKE, I WANT TO LEARN
HOW TO DO THAT
SO, I'VE JUST KIND OF BEEN
LEARNING
I MEAN, I HAVE NO SKILL SET
WHATSOEVER, BUT I CAN SEMI-MIX
ONE SONG TO THE OTHER, WHICH
IS, I FEEL, REALLY EXCITING.
>> Jimmy: YEAH, THAT'S AMAZING
>> IT'S REALLY COOL AS WELL
BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY I HAVEN'T
GONE OUT DANCING IN A REALLY,
REALLY LONG TIME
>> Jimmy: OH, WOW.
>> SO NOW I CAN KIND OF LIKE,
BRING THE CLUB TO MY BEDROOM
BUT YEAH, AT THE MINUTE, I'VE
ONLY ACTUALLY BEEN ABLE TO DO
SETS FOR MY PARENTS, BUT THEY
SORT OF SEMI-APPRECIATE IT
>> Jimmy: I WAS GONNA SAY, YOU
IN QUARANTINE IT'S LIKE --
>> BUT I NEED A GOOD DJ NAME
>> Jimmy: IT'S THE -
OH, YOU NEED A DJ NAME
>> YEAH, THAT'S THE THING I'M
LACKING.
>> Jimmy: OKAY, LET'S SEE, DJ
NAME
ALRIGHT, I'M TRYING TO THINK
OF -
THEY ALWAYS HAVE VERY CLEVER
NAMES.
IS ANYTHING ON YOUR SHORT LIST
>> MY ACTUAL INITIALS ARE -- MY
NAME'S
DAISY JESSICA EDGAR-JONES, SO
MY INITIALS ARE DJEJ
>> Jimmy: WHAT
STOP
THAT'S IT.
DON'T TALK ANYMORE
THAT'S IT.
DJEJ IS IT
YOU WON.
THAT IS YOUR DJ NAME
DJEJ, AND I LOVE IT'S LIKE A
A NIGHT CLUB OF ONE RIGHT NOW
IN VANCOUVER
>> YEAH, AND IF ALL GOES WRONG,
I CAN TRY AND PURSUE AND SEE
WHERE IT TAKES ME.
>> Jimmy: I'D LOVE FOR YOU TO
TEACH ME SOME NEXT TIME I SEE
YOU.
>> MAYBE I CAN DO --
YOUR LIKE SOIREES.
>> Jimmy: I WOULD LOVE IT.
OH MY GOSH
YOU HAVE TO SEE MY -
THERE'S NO SOIREES HAPPENING
RIGHT OF YET, BUT WHENEVER
WE'RE READY FOR IT, I'M TOTALLY
CALLING DJEJ
HEY, CONGRATS ON ALL THE
SUCCESS OF "NORMAL PEOPLE.
I MEAN, THE SHOW IS ON EVERY
MUST WATCH LIST AND YOU'VE BEEN
GETTING TONS OF ACCLAIM AND
AWARDS BUZZ FOR YOUR
PERFORMANCE.
YOU ARE A CRUSHER IN THIS.
HOW DO YOU DESCRIBE THE SHOW
>> I WOULD SAY IT'S A VERY,
VERY SIMPLE STORY OF A
A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO
PEOPLE AS THEY GROW UP FROM
18 TO 22 AND IT'S SORT OF ABOUT
HOW MUCH ONE PERSON CAN KIND OF
CHANGE THE COURSE OF YOUR LIFE
AND HOW THE PEOPLE THAT YOU
CONNECT WITH ARE SO SIGNIFICANT
IN A HUMAN LIFE.
SO IT'S JUST A VERY SIMPLE SORT
OF LOVE STORY.
>> Jimmy: I'VE SEEN WHEN WE
WERE RESEARCHING YOU FOR THE
SHOW, YOUR BANGS HAVE BECOME
FAMOUS ON ITS OWN NOW, AND
EVERYONE'S LIKE, HOW DO YOU GET
MARIANNE'S BANGS
FROM NORMAL PEOPLE, HOW DO YOU
GET THE "NORMAL PEOPLE" FRINGE
IS THAT WHAT -- DO NORMAL
PEOPLE GO LIKE, HOW DID YOU
COME UP WITH THAT HAIRSTYLE
OR -
IS IT EXCITING YOU HAVE A LOOK
>> WELL, IT'S FUNNY.
I MEAN, I SHOULD PROBABLY SAY,
MARIANNE'S BANGS, THEY ARE
QUITE POPULAR, BUT THEY
DEFINITELY AREN'T AS POPULAR AS
CONNELL'S CHAIN OF COURSE,
WHICH IS ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS
ONES -
OBJECTS FROM THE SHOW.
YEAH, IT'S SO FUNNY CAUSE MY
FRINGE CAME FROM THE RESULT OF
NOT GETTING A PART I REALLY
WANTED, AND I WAS SO SAD
AND I WAS LIKE, "RIGHT, I'M
GOING TO DO CHANGE
I'M JUST GOING TO CHOP OFF ALL
MY FRONT BITS OF MY HAIR."
AND THEN, YEAH, AFTER THAT, I
GOT A JOB SO I DO OWE A LOT
OF -- I THINK MY CAREER TO -- I
SEEM TO ONLY BE ABLE TO ACT IF
YOU CAN ONLY SEE A PARTIAL
AMOUNT OF MY FACE.
>> Jimmy: NO
>> BUT YEAH, IT'S FUNNY THOUGH,
BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY, WHEN THE
SHOW CAME OUT, WE WERE IN
LOCKDOWN AND MY BANGS WERE OUT
OF CONTROL
I HAVE TO SAY, AND MY POOR
FLATMATE HAD THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF CUTTING IT.
AND SHE DID A PRETTY GOOD JOB
BUT IT DEFINITELY WENT THROUGH
LOTS OF DIFFERENT STAGES
NOW I'M TRYING TO GROW IT OUT.
AND THAT'S STRESSFUL ENOUGH AS
IT IS.
BUT YEAH, IT'S WEIRD THAT
PEOPLE PICKED UP ON IT
CAUSE --
>> Jimmy: SOMETHING THAT JUST
HAPPENED
YEAH
>> YEAH.
>> Jimmy: WELL, YOU CRUSH IT ON
THIS SHOW AND I WOULD LOVE TO
SHOW A CLIP OF YOU ACTING.
HERE'S DAISY EDGAR-JONES IN
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
>> I ASKED, RACHEL TO GO OUT
TODAY.
IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL OR
ANYTHING, JUST THOUGHT YOU
SHOULD KNOW.
SO, YEAH
AND I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU
KNOW IT'S NOT ROMANTIC OR
ANYTHING
WE'RE JUST FRIENDS
>> LIKE WE'RE JUST FRIENDS
>> NO, THAT'S DIFFERENT.
>> ARE YOU SLEEPING WITH HER
>> NO.
I'M SURE I DON'T HAVE THE TIME
>> WOULD YOU LIKE TO
>> NOT HUGE ON THE IDEA MYSELF
I DON'T THINK I'M REALLY THAT
INSATIABLE
I ALREADY HAVE YOU
THAT WAS A JOKE, MARIANNE.
>> YEAH, I DIDN'T GET IT
>> Jimmy: DAISY EDGAR-JONES!
"NORMAL PEOPLE" IS STREAMING
NOW ON HULU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
HERE AGAIN AND CONGRATS ON ALL
THAT BUZZ.
IT'S WELL DESERVED
>> THANK YOU
