AND TELL WHERE WE ASK OUR GUESTS TO SHOW SOMETHING FROM THEIR

HOME WE MIGHT NOT OTHERWISE GET TO SEE.

DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THIS EVENING?

>> YES.

MANY PEOPLE KNOW BUT MANY DON'T THAT I GREW UP WITH A DISABLED

MOTHER WHO RESIDES AT THE ACTOR'S FUND NURSING HOME RIGHT

NOW, SHOUT OUT TO THE NURSING HOME IN INGLE WOOD, NEW JERSEY!

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) SO WHEN SHE WAS YOUNGER, AND

WHEN THERE WERE ARTS IN THE SCHOOLS AND THINGS OF THAT

NATURE, SHE MADE AN ASHTRAY OUT OF -- A CERAMIC ASHTRAY.

WHAT I FIND SO INTERESTING ABOUT IT IS THAT THERE'S A STRENGTH TO

IT, THERE'S A GIRTH TO IT, THERE'S A HEAVINESS TO IT,

THERE'S A GROUNDEDNESS TO IT THAT REMINDS ME OF MY MOTHER'S

SPIRIT.

I STOLE THIS FROM HER WHEN I WAS 21.

( LAUGHTER ) I HAVE HAD IT EVER SINCE.

MY MOTHER DOES NOT SMOKE, MY MOTHER DOES NOT DRINK.

SHE IS A ERELIGIOUS WOMAN.

I CAN'T NECESSARILY SAY THE SAME THING FOR MYSELF.

( LAUGHTER ) SHE DOESN'T HAVE HER MOBILITY,

RIGHT, SO SHE CAN'T DO FIGURE FOR HERSELF.

SO WHEN SHE HAD HER MOBILITY, SHE MADE THIS.

>> James: THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.

WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING SOMETHING SO PERSONAL.

BLESS YOU, BILLY.

REGGIE, DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR OUR GUEST THIS EVENING?

>> Reggie: I DO.

TONIGHT'S QUESTION GOES TO -- ( DRUM ROLL )

-- LET'S MAKE IT FOR MR. PORTER.

>> James: OKAY.

>> Reggie: WHAT IS BEAUTY?

WHAT IS BEAUTY?

OOOH!

THAT'S A VERY INTERESTING QUESTION.

BEAUTY, I THINK, AND WHAT I'VE LEARNED OVER THE YEARS, IS

BEAUTY IS THE CAPACITY TO LOVE YOURSELF.

THAT IS WHAT BUTTE IS TO ME.

( APPLAUSE ) >> James: ( BLEEP ) BILLY, WE

LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

IS THAT CORRECT, REG?

>> Reggie: THAT IS CORRECT.

>> James: OF COURSE, IT IS.

THE ONE, THE ONLY BILLY PORTER.

WHEN WE COME BACK, DAVID BYRNE IS GOING TO BE HERE.

COME ON BACK, EVERYBODY.
