  • -[ Imitating crying ]

  • [ Audience "aws" ]

  • Thank you so much. -Happy Valentine's Day.

  • -That is so sweet. Thank you so much.

  • I appreciate that. -No, it's perfect.

  • I know you couldn't spend it with your one true love,

  • Justin Timberlake, so -- -Oh, my gosh.

  • -But you got to spend it with another Justin,

  • who's also a really good dancer.

  • -That's true, yeah. You're right.

  • -And me.

  • -And you, of course, which is the best.

  • Come on. Happy Valentine's Day, come on.

  • I love that you're here. -I'm so happy to be here.

  • -We have fun every time you're here.

  • Last time, we were talking about "The Politician,"

  • and I said how good you are in it.

  • And it went on to get Golden Globe nods.

  • Congratulations. No big deal.

  • No big deal. -NBD.

  • -NBD. You're just fantastic in it.

  • Did you like the Golden Globes? Was it fun?

  • -Yeah, they're really fun.

  • I mean, no one knows who I am there,

  • but, I mean, I don't know who anyone is, either.

  • I keep doing this thing where I think I know Jeff Bezos.

  • But I don't know Jeff Bezos.

  • -Wait, what? -At all.

  • -Wait, what are you talking about?

  • -Well, I've done it three times now,

  • and most recently at the Globes after-party,

  • where I walk up to him, give him --

  • -To the real Jeff Bezos. -To the real --

  • At the real Jeff Bezos.

  • And I hug him.

  • And I say,

  • "I'm so sorry I haven't responded to your e-mail.

  • I promise to get back to you."

  • He never e-mailed me. He doesn't know who I am.

  • And I go to my friends, and they're like,

  • "How do you know Jeff Bezos?"

  • And I'm like, "Oh, no. That's Jeff Bezos?

  • [Bleep] I did it again."

  • -Wait.

  • -Yeah, I don't know. I just keep doing it.

  • It's no wonder that Amazon hasn't hired me.

  • -But why him?

  • You just feel like there's some connection there,

  • or do you just think it's funny?

  • -No. I feel like he looks like someone I know.

  • I don't know. I don't know why.

  • I just -- I have a mental block. And I think I know him.

  • -But when you hug him, do you say, "Hi, Jeff Bezos?"

  • You go, "Hi." -No, no.

  • I don't know that it's him at the time.

  • -Oh, you think it's a different person you might have e-mailed.

  • -Maybe a friend's dad. Maybe an agent.

  • Maybe somebody who's not the most powerful,

  • richest man in the world.

  • I don't know. It's a mental block.

  • -Jeff, you have to -- you have to talk to Zoey here.

  • She's really cool. -I'm sorry.

  • -She's sorry for hugging you,

  • but next time, you know, respond to her e-mail.

  • Okay, yeah. Please. -I'm so sorry.

  • -And then do you go to the parties afterwards?

  • Are those fun?

  • -Yes. They're -- They're fun. They're very fun.

  • I got to meet Zooey Deschanel, who I'm a big fan of.

  • Yes, and I sometimes get e-mails that are meant for her

  • sent to me 'cause our names are so similar.

  • So, I got to exchange information so I can,

  • you know, forward those things on to her.

  • -Zoey D. and Zooey D.

  • -Yeah, one time I got a --

  • Actually, I didn't tell her this.

  • I got a picture texted to me of a foot,

  • and then like an hour later, it just said,

  • "Sorry, wrong Zoey D."

  • So... [ Laughter ]

  • -That's weird. -I know. I got questions.

  • -Wow. Do you forward those things to her?

  • -Now, I'm gonna. -Yeah, of course.

  • Any other mistakes with her that you get?

  • -Mista-- Um...

  • Oh, one time I was walking through security

  • at the JFK airport,

  • and a TSA agent was like, "Are you an elf?"

  • [ Light laughter ]

  • And I very earnestly responded, "No, sir, I'm not an elf."

  • And I just kept walking and thought,

  • "TSA agents are really asking different questions in 2020."

  • -Are you an elf?

  • Do you think they meant, "Are you in 'Elf'?"

  • -They meant am I an elf, which I'm not.

  • I'm not an elf, and I'm not in "Elf."

  • -Yeah, Zooey Deschanel was in "Elf,"

  • but she was not an elf in "Elf."

  • -You heard it here, folks. Right here.

  • -I'm confused, as well.

  • I want to talk about "Buffaloed."

  • You produce and star in this film.

  • Where did you hear about the script first?

  • -I was actually shooting a movie called "Set It Up,"

  • which is a rom-com on Netflix, not Amazon.

  • -That's right.

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • -And I'm usually attracted to parts that are super different

  • than what I'm playing at that exact moment.

  • In "Set It Up," the character was super bubbly

  • and a people pleaser.

  • And "Buffaloed" she's this really greedy

  • and insane total opposite character.

  • And I was on a mission to get the movie made

  • and cast myself in it.

  • So that's why I produced it.

  • -Very smart. You do a great job in it.

  • Yeah. Tell me what --

  • The movie studio is doing something very interesting

  • with this film. -Oh, yeah. Yeah.

  • They've cleared $1.5 million of medical debt

  • to everyday Americans, which is really cool.

  • -So pay out debt. [ Cheers and applause ]

  • That's pretty cool. -Yeah.

  • -Can you set up the film and what it's about?

  • -Yes, it's about a woman who is obsessed with money

  • and getting out of her blue-collar existence

  • and finds her calling in an ethically debatable industry,

  • which is debt collecting.

  • -Yeah, and you have a great accent in the movie, by the way.

  • -A Buffalo accent?

  • Is there anyone from Buffalo here?

  • No, absolutely not a single soul.

  • Well, I'll see myself out. -No, we don't allow --

  • On Fridays, no one from Buffalo is allowed to our show.

  • It's a rule NBC made years ago. -Oh, my God, I'm an idiot.

  • -NBC made that rule years ago. Yeah.

  • -Yes, yes, I forgot the fine print.

  • -I've been to Buffalo many times.

  • -You have? -Yeah.

  • -Have you had some Buffalo wings?

  • -I actually went to the bar - - Is it the Anchor Bar?

  • -Anchor Bar and Duff's. -Yes.

  • I went to -- Yeah. I had a Buffalo wing there.

  • -And you liked it? -It was like, yeah, ahh!

  • It was amazing, yeah. Of course. It was the best.

  • -They're great.

  • They're Buffalo wings from Buffalo.

  • Yeah, and there are really interesting words like "jagoff,"

  • words that don't exist anywhere else.

  • -What are you doing, you jagoff?

  • -Yeah, you jagoff.

  • Who you calling a jagoff, jagoff?

  • -Hey, what are you looking at, jagoff?

  • -What are you looking at?

  • -It's a term of endearment, as well.

  • -Hey, jagoff. -Aw, thanks, jagoff.

  • Hey, I got something for you, too.

  • Here you go, jagoff. -Thanks, jagoff.
