-Welcome, welcome, welcome to "The Tonight Show."
-
[ Cheers and applause ]
-
Well, guys, some big news out of Washington today.
-
House Democrats sent former President Trump
-
a letter inviting him to testify under oath
-
at his impeachment trial.
-
There's no way Trump's going to Washington.
-
In fact, Trump's lawyers already called this a publicity stunt,
-
which backfired when Trump was like, "Okay, now I'm in."
-
And get this -- after the Screen Actors Guild
-
criticized Trump last month,
-
today he sent a letter saying that he's quitting the union.
-
Yep. [ Laughter ]
-
Trump's out of work and just quit his union.
-
Even worse, now if he wants medical coverage,
-
he's got to sign up for Obamacare.
-
I mean, it just keeps -- It just keeps going.
-
It's like, "Oh, my God."
-
Meanwhile, Melania heard and was like, "Um, Donald,
-
while we're on the subject of leaving unions..."
-
[ Clears throat ]
-
But check this out. In the letter,
-
Trump actually bragged about his acting credits.
-
This is real. He wrote, "I'm very proud of my work
-
on movies such as 'Home Alone 2,' 'Zoolander,'
-
and 'Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps'
-
and television shows including The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.'"
-
One day, you're the most powerful man on Earth.
-
The next, you're bragging about your one line
-
in "Home Alone 2."
-
[ Laughter ]
-
I forgot Trump was on "Fresh Prince."
-
It turns out he was the third Aunt Viv.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
Well, guys, the Super Bowl is just a few days away,
-
but if you're thinking of throwing a party on Sunday,
-
you might want to listen to what Dr. Fauci has to say.
-
-Absolutely not.
-
I mean, watch the Super Bowl on TV, enjoy it,
-
have a party in your house with your family.
-
So, as difficult as that is, at least this time around,
-
just lay low and cool it.
-
-Fauci was like, "This is about public health
-
and definitely not because it's Thursday
-
and I still haven't been invited to one.
-
Just want to make that clear.
-
But had I been or have I been, I would not go.
-
Of course not."
-
Listen to this, guys. I read that if the Buccaneers
-
win on Sunday, Tom Brady will get
-
a $500,000 bonus.
-
When he heard that, Brady was like, "Golly.
-
I better start practicing."
-
[ Laughter ]
-
It's a $500,000 "incentive."
-
I don't even understand why they do this.
-
Who needs an incentive to try and win the Super Bowl?
-
It's like, "All right. Now I'll try."
-
When asked why he had that added to his contract,
-
Brady said...
-
"Because it's funny."
-
[ Laughter ]
-
Get this. Down in Tampa, the local news decided
-
to talk to a 99-year-old Buccaneers fan.
-
She's pretty fired up about the game. Watch this.
-
-The Bucs is the ones that I love.
-
Tom Brady. We did it. We kicked [bleep].
-
Now Patrick is coming to our house to get his [bleep] kicked.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
The news anchor was like, "Wow. I did not think
-
that we needed the bleep button for that segment, but, okay."
-
Yeah, she and Tom go way back.
-
She was actually a Patriots cheerleader
-
during his rookie season.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
Yeah, she's the only fan of the Buccaneers
-
who knew actual buccaneers.
-
This is interesting. I heard that each year
-
a handful of Super Bowl commercials
-
are rejected by TV networks. Either they're too controversial
-
or just not right for the big game.
-
We got our hands on one of them, and you can see
-
why it didn't make it, I think.
-
Take a look.
-
-Clydesdales. Powerful. Mighty.
-
And now available
-
in every scoop of tuna at Subway.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
-That is awful. That is awful. That is terr-- That is --
-
That should not -- That should not air.
-
That should not air on television.
-
I agree. Good for them. That's terrible.
-
-Oh, my God.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
-Check this out. In Saudi Arabia,
-
there's a roller coaster that's opening in 2023
-
that will travel more than 155 miles per hour.
-
And they released a simulation video.
-
This is real. Watch this.
-
[ Riders screaming ]
-
♪♪
-
You know it's an insane idea when even the simulated people
-
are screaming.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
Listen to this. I read about a man in Florida
-
who was caught trying to board a flight
-
with 22 pounds of meth in his luggage.
-
Yeah, luggage with 22 pounds of meth,
-
or, as it's known in Florida, luggage.
-
There you go.
-
[ Applause ] Thank you.
-
And, finally, as I said before, the Super Bowl is this Sunday
-
with the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
-
Now, as you know, after the game,
-
they give out awards like Most Valuable Player,
-
but they also give out awards before the game.
-
I'll show you what I mean.
-
It's time for "Tonight Show Superlatives."
