And he also acts.

You can currently see him co-star alongside Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg in the new movie, Me Time.

I loaned you the money, and you refused to pay me back.

So now, he's gonna have to inflict some bodily harm.

What?

Stan. Stan the man.

Hey, I thought we were friends.

We are, but I was very clear about my fee structure.

It's a misunderstanding.

I did not know this was so time-sensitive.

Give me a day.

I'll move some funds around, and I'll pay you back.

What a day.

A day? Yeah.

All right, fine.

Oh, my God. Yes, thank you.

I didn't know what was going on.

I'm panicking right now.

Don't sever anything.

Just break a finger, and then we got to hit the road, okay?

Me Time is available this Friday on Netflix.

Please welcome Jimmy O. Yang.

Whoo! Whoo!

This feels great, Steve.

We're making history tonight. You know that?

We taking over, baby.

This is the first time that Jimmy Kimmel First that an Asian host has interviewed an Asian guest.

It's gonna happen.

I feel free.

Oh, yeah.

I feel good. I feel liberated.

I mean, that is a comfortable outfit.

Okay, well, maybe don't do that.

I mean, okay.

Whoo!

This is... this is the...

You know, come on.

All right, hit you a little squat over here.

I love that your outfit allows you to do that, because if I... if I were to join you, it's not...

Yeah, it would probably rip.

I'm always stressed with that, you know?

Okay, I'm gonna get down now.

While you're up there, if you wanted to...

This feels like classic Arsenio Haas show, you know?

You're Arsenio, and I'm Prince.

I would be Arsenio in this.

In this scenario. That's true. That's true.

And-and, you know, I'm a good Asian guest.

Uh-huh.

So I actually brought some good stuff.

Of course. You didn't come empty-handed.

Mr. Guillermo.

Come in, sir.

Look at this.

It's a celebration, man.

Dim sum.

Dim sum.

On to the Jimmy Kimmel show.

This is legit, Guillermo.

Yes, thank you so much, Guillermo.

Okay, let's... let's take a look at what we got.

It's not... Oh, look at this.

We got har gow here.

That's har gow.

This is char siu bao right here.

Oh, my... Oh, you got the...

Aha. You got the chicken feet.

Oh, yeah.

The feng jiao.

That is the real stuff.

That's one of my favorites, actually.

The egg tart. Here you go.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay.

See, this is all happening, man.

Oh, man, these are all hits, Jimmy.

Yeah, this is great.

These are bangers only over here.

Yeah.

Okay.

This has turned into, uh, basically Good Morning America on the cooking show.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, garlic spare ribs.

But it's... it's gonna happen.

No, it's...

We got to talk. Don't worry.

But we're gonna eat first, okay?

We're gonna eat first.

No, I-I see we got the...

the chopsticks and the condiments and everything.

I'm not sure what this is.

That's, um...

That's, uh...

That's a matcha spoon, I'm pretty sure.

I think so, yeah.

Okay, we'll throw that out.

Yeah.

Uh, oh, man.

Well, great, man.

Dude, I-I feel like I should congratulate you.

You got Me Time coming out on Friday.

You're about to go on tour.

Yes!

Yes, yes.

Yeah.

It's all happening.

And, um, is it true?

I read that you-you sold out the, uh, the Sydney Opera House.

Is that right?

The Sydney Opera House is all sold out.

Holy crap.

It's awesome, right?

That's great.

I think my parents are proud of me.

They're like,

It's awesome, right?

That's great.

I think my parents are finally proud of me.

That's the only two international buildings that Asian parents know about.

I'm still working my way up there, to be honest.

I feel like they won't really get there until I'm in an Avengers movie, which...

Right, right.

We'll see where that goes, but...

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, you'll get there.

I hope so.

I believe in you, Seymour.

Thank you.

Oh, I appreciate you.

Are you, um...

Are you bringing your parents along for the tour at all?

Yeah, no.

No.

No.

I've done that.

I've done that.

I love my parents, and you guys know my dad is quite the showman himself.

He's an actor, and he wants to do stand-up now.

So, actually, I brought him up on stage in Vegas, okay?

He loved it.

It was a big moment for him, but he kind of, like, froze up.

Like, he didn't...

He was gonna tell a joke.

Did he joke?

Yeah, I don't know if he joked, but, like, yeah.

Yeah, that was, uh...

That was, uh...

Yeah.

But how much of that is his fault, and how much of that is your fault?

Were you coaching him?

Were you running with him?

How is this my fault?

This is not my...

I told him, I'm like, hey, man, if you want to do stand-up, you know, go hit some open mics, you know?

That's how everyone starts.

And he was like, no, I do theaters only.

I'm like, that's not... that's not how it...

You know what it is?

I think you spoiled him.

I think you spoiled him.

I think you worked so hard so that your dad could have opportunities that you didn't, and he got it too easy.

Yeah, yeah.

You were sacrificing every day hitting those open mics, and-and, you know, for it to just fall on your dad's lap like that, riding off your coattails.

I mean...

It's a classic Asian immigrant story.

Yeah.

I moved to this country so my dad can act.

You know what I mean?

Now, your dad, um...

Your dad, I think his first on-screen role was in, uh, Patriot's Day, right?

Patriot's Day, and then I wrote him in on Space Force.

That's right. I think we have a...

I think we got a photo.

Oh, yeah!

That's your dad right there.

That's him.

What a close-up.

What a close-up.

A SAG-AFTRA union actor.

He's got his SAG card and everything.

Yeah.

Well, look, look,

I got my parents into acting as well.

No way.

Um, my parents were in a Google commercial that I did.

Wow!

That is them. That is them.

That is my dad looking like the, uh, the Asian George Clooney.

He's, uh...

Dude, your dad's like a model.

He's, uh, he's...

Look, I don't know what happened with me, but I have very beautiful parents.

Yeah.

I have very beautiful parents, and, um, thank you.

And, you know, it's...

It is a thing.

You know, we try to...

We try to bring our dads and our moms along for as much of the ride as we can, but sometimes they... they embarrass us, right?

Oh, my God.

Um, so I stopped taking my parents to premieres, okay?

Like, my mom is great.

She's just happy to be there.

I took my dad to the Easter Sunday premiere, a movie I produced and I had a role in, and he bought these Ray-Ban glasses.

They're like the old Snapchat glasses where you can press a button and record.

But then a bright light would shine, so they let you know, like, you know, he's recording.

So when my scene came on in the movie theater, it was just a bright flashlight on-on his face.

He's just, like, looking at me, looking.

I'm like, Dad, what are you doing?

And I ripped it off, and I'm like, you're committing a federal crime right now recording in a movie theater and embarrassing me.

So he-he's banned. He's done.

But you bought him those glasses, right?

Just to... you... that was a present from you.

Yes, yes, no, yes.

Describe what these are.

So they're Ray-Bans, but they're-they're, like, spy glasses?

Yeah, yeah.

This is not an ad for Ray-Bans, by the way.

No, no, no, no, no. We're not-we're not in...

But I-I bought him an iPad.

You know, I-I thought I'd be a good son.

It's a nice gift for his birthday.

And-and he-he called me a couple days later.

He's like, oh, no, too expensive for me.

No, no, no, no, no.

Just return it, please, and give me the cash.

And then he used the cash to buy the Ray-Ban glasses, and, uh, now I created a monster.

Tell me about your, uh, your role in-in Me Time.

You play-you play, uh, a guy who's-who's kind of...

What was that, perm?

Yeah.

Is that a perm?

I wanted to get a perm so bad.

Uh-huh.

Because I was, like, channeling...

Like, he's a villain, but I want him to not look necessarily intimidating and not act intimidating.

Oh, no, you were-you were straight scary.

Yeah, that was frightening.

And-and I think that...

When-when people are truly scary, they don't try to act scary or dress scary, right?

He's just like a Hancock Park dad with, like, a lavender jacket.

And I'm like, dude, I want to go get a perm, you know?

But they wouldn't let me.

They're like, I don't know, you know, perm is permanent, you know, like, they might mess up your hair.

So they gave me a wig that's the exact same length as my hair, but a permed wig.

So I look quite ridiculous in the...

You look-you look great, man.

How is it-how is it working with, uh, with Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg?

Oh, they're great.

I mean, Kevin Hart, you know, he's amazing.

He's, like, the guy in comedy right now.

So first day on set, I'm like, I hope he knows I'm a comedian.

I hope he knows who I am, you know what I mean?

Like, but he did, and-and he was very nice.

And they're both just so in the moment.

And they-they're great partners in a scene, you know?

They improvise, and they got-they're superstars, but they also, like, gave all of us plenty of space to work with it.
