-
We're back with Jimmy Kimmel, and so you've
-
written and illustrated it.
-
It says there, right there, "Jimmy Kimmel, The Serious
-
Goose."
-
And first of all, I didn't--
-
you are an excellent drawer.
-
Oh, thank you.
-
I've been drawing since I was a boy,
-
and I did the lettering as well, which really was
-
the hardest part of the book.
-
I used to think children's books were easy.
-
I was like, oh, this is dumb.
-
This is easy.
-
Anybody could do this.
-
I was wrong.
-
Well, it's a very popular book because I saw
-
that your daughter endorses it.
-
Jane endorses it.
-
My daughter did endorse it.
-
There's a mirror in there.
-
Yeah, that's the great thing.
-
It's like, look everybody, Ellen's in the book.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
So you look in the mirror, and you
-
try to turn the serious goose into a silly goose--
-
or the kids do-- and they have to make funny faces
-
and do silly things.
-
And I don't want to spoil it, but at the end, guess what.
-
It turns into a silly goose.
-
Oh, no, does it?
-
Yeah, it does.
-
That's fantastic.
-
Thank you.
-
And you did that because you--
-
I did this because I am donating all the money
-
I make to Children's Hospital here
-
in Los Angeles and children's hospitals across the country.
-
[APPLAUSE]
-
And again, I want to thank you and your audience
-
for donating a couple of million dollars to Children's Hospital
-
in my son Billy's name.
-
And he's doing great, and we're very happy with everything
-
they've done.
-
He really is adorable.
-
He is doing great.
-
He is a cute kid.
-
Yeah.
-
Oh, there he is.
-
Yeah, there he is at Easter time.
-
[APPLAUSE]
-
[CHUCKLES]
-
I mean, what a scary thing to have happen and to go through,
-
and it's so great to see.
-
And there's Jane.
-
There's your daughter.
-
Now Billy talks about T.rex nonstop.
-
He likes to run around the house half naked waist-down.
-
He's a funny kid.
-
All right, so you brought--
-
because all the money, as you say,
-
is going to children's hospitals.
-
So tell me what we're doing now.
-
So I made a couple of original drawings of someone
-
who's very special to you.
-
In fact, we've seen him a couple of times already today.
-
And I think this is something that we could potentially
-
auction off.
-
And so this is how it works.
-
So that's Serious Andy, all right?
-
You know Andy.
-
And this is Silly Andy.
-
So you could see, Serious Andy and Silly Andy,
-
they're not really different at all.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
But you get the idea.
-
You get the gist of it.
-
That's fantastic.
-
And you really did that--
-
I drew these in my office today, on the way over.
-
All right, so we are going to auction these off.
-
Let's do it.
-
All right, so we're going to auction this off.
-
All right, let's auction it off.
-
What are we going to start the bidding on?
-
A million dollars, who has a million dollars?
-
All right, a million dollars, who?
-
Anybody want to start the bidding?
-
There's Silly Andy, and there's Serious Andy.
-
All right.
-
All right, let's start the bidding at $500.
-
$500.
-
Oh, very good, wow.
-
For Children's Hospital, $500.
-
$700 for Children's Hospital, $700 for Children's Hospital,
-
$700.
-
We have two ladies right here. $800, yes?
-
$800.
-
$800.
-
All right.
-
This is the cheap side of the audience.
-
Yes.
-
[LAUGHTER, APPLAUSE]
-
It's like basically everyone but these two ladies.
-
[LAUGHS]
-
This row-- hey, how about this?
-
I don't know if they'd be interested, $900 anyone?
-
$900?
-
$1,000.
-
OK.
-
I don't want to really break the bank on these ladies.
-
But what if we give you each one of these for $1,000?
-
Is that--
-
Sure.
-
--acceptable?
-
Then you have to decide who wants Silly
-
and who wants Serious?
-
All right.
-
All right!
-
[BAM]
-
Sold to the ladies for $2,000--
-
[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
-
$2,000.
-
--to Children's Hospital.
-
[LAUGHS]
-
All right.
-
What else should we sell?
-
Hold on.
-
Let's sell the flowers.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
Andy just said he's matching it, so $2,000 from Andy
-
for Children's Hospital.
-
All right!
-
Thank you, Andy.
-
[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
-
[CHUCKLES]
-
All right.
-
