Jennifer Aniston gets 'verklempt' while talking engagement on 'Chelsea Lately' -- VIDEO

Jennifer Aniston will always be America’s sweetheart. Just look at the way her face scrunches up in glee when Chelsea Handler asks her about her engagement to Justin Theroux — it’s downright adorable. And how many 43-year-old women can legitimately claim to be adorable? When she gets teary, you just want to give her a hug, then invite her over to watch season 3 of Friends with you. Even tart-tongued Handler broke character to celebrate her pal last night: “He’s the greatest guy ever, and you guys make the greatest couple ever, and I’m so happy for you too.” So are we! Hooray! Let’s get yogurt!!

Of course, the host did also call Jen out for tending to wear shirts that show off her nipples… so maybe the praise party only goes so far. Check out both moments in the videos below. And for the record — yeah, you can kinda see some headlights in the second clip.

Jimmy Fallon visits 'Mister Romney's Neighborhood' -- VIDEO

Tags: , , , , , , , , , TV

Did you know that if Mitt Romney gets elected and cuts PBS’s funding, he’ll effectively be canceling his own series? That’s right — unbeknownst to most people, Massachusetts’s ex-governor has been hosting a children’s show on PBS called Mister Romney’s Neighborhood. Late Night with Jimmy Fallon unearthed a clip last night, and it really is a gem.

Romney has a knack for explaining tricky concepts like “wallet” (“Do you know what money is? I’m guessing no, because you’re watching public television”) and “choke,” a.k.a. what his mailman Mr. Obama did at the debate last week. And he really seems more approachable when he arrives home each day and trades his suit jacket in for a different suit jacket. Come, join the Republican candidate in his house and on a trip to the land of make-believe, the magical world where he and Paul Ryan find most of their facts:

LETTERMAN-OBAMA

Why is our 44th president so happy? Probably because he got the chance to discuss everything from the recent violence in Libya to the tasty, honey-based beer the White House has been brewing on David Letterman’s Late Show tonight.

We’ll update with video from CBS once clips beyond this one are available. In the meantime, here’s an abridged list of highlights from Obama’s second trip to Letterman’s studio:

James Van Der Beek on 'Conan': Too hot for TV -- VIDEO

Tags: , , , , , , , TV

How hot is meta, grown-up James Van Der Beek? So hot that his interview on Conan last night got interrupted by an actual fire alarm.

One minute, Van Der Beek was describing his douchey Don’t Trust the B—– in Apt. 23 character and complimenting Conan O’Brien’s high, tight butt — the next, their conversation was pierced by a high-pitched screeching sound. “So let me get this straight, James Van Der Beek,” Conan joked as the alarm grew louder. “You wait 14 years — 14 years — ’til it’s safe to come back on this show” — the host and the former teen idol hadn’t chatted since The Beek’s Dawson’s Creek days — “and there’s a f–in’ fire alarm!”

Then Conan threw to commercial so his crew could quiet the noise (or, you know, put out the fire). Watch it here:

Larry David narrates Obama film on 'The Daily Show': 'Less bad is better than more bad!'

by
Tags: , , , , , , , , , , TV

Look, The Daily Show gets that a lot of Americans feel like they aren’t better off now than they were four years ago. But hey — even if President Obama hasn’t been perfect, he hasn’t made as many mistakes as he could have made. And everyone agrees that less bad is better than more bad… right?

That’s the point driven home by this fake biographical video for Obama. It points out how, as president, he put in place an “economic stimulus package that definitely didn’t ruin the country” and managed to keep the unemployment rating below 12 percent, “or 19! Or 80! There’s no limit to how high numbers can go!” As for Obamacare? “It’s better than cancer!” The whole thing is narrated by Curb Your Enthusiasm star Larry David, a guy who knows a thing or two about optimistic pessimism.

Check out the devastating and funny — or is that devastatingly funny? — clip below.

Michelle Obama on Letterman: Top 10 reasons to watch the DNC

by
Tags: , , , , , , , , TV

On this, the final day of the Democratic National Convention, even die-hard wonks are feeling some political fatigue. For the past few weeks, it’s been nothing but “we built it”-this and “yes we can, again”-that and endless “Invisible Obama” jokes — and the volume of discourse will only increase as November inches closer. Even so, First Lady Michelle Obama thinks you should tune in to the DNC tonight… and not just because her husband’s giving a speech.

Last night, David Letterman had Obama read off her Top Ten reasons to watch the convention. Consider it before you decide whether to watch the president’s speech tonight — and remember, you don’t have to be a Democrat to enjoy balloons!

Bruce Willis parodies RPattz/KStew drama on Letterman

by
Tags: , , , , , , , TV

In the wake of all the RNC/Eastwood hullabaloo, we almost forgot to mention Bruce Willis’s appearance on The Late Show last night. Like many in, around, and nowhere near Hollywood, the famously bald action star has been a little down in the dumps lately — all because Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are no more. The poor guy is so sad, he can’t even say his catchphrase correctly! See how Bruce’s melancholy is affecting his new film, the latest entry in the Die Hard franchise:

Michelle Obama isn't watching the RNC, but she thinks you should -- VIDEO

Tags: , , , , , , , , , TV

Michelle Obama wants you to eat your political vegetables — though she, personally, is abstaining. The First Lady told David Letterman last night that she hasn’t been tuning into the GOP’s big Tampa comedy convention. But that doesn’t mean other Americans should follow her example: “Let me start by saying I, as the wife of the guy they’re running against, I tend not to watch it,” she explained. “But I think it’s important for everyone to watch these conventions, because this is the time where you get to know the party, you understand the platform, you understand the candidates. You know, this is technically where the campaign begins. So I think it’s very important for everyone to watch as much of both conventions as possible to make their decisions.”

Then Obama paused. “I… I didn’t watch it,” she admitted again, as the Late Show audience howled.

Robert Pattinson talks dogging, on-camera prostate exams on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' -- VIDEO

by
Tags: , , , , , , , Movies, TV

Has Robert Pattinson ditched brooding awkwardness for playfulness? The Cosmopolis star spent 10 minutes effectively trolling Jimmy Kimmel last night, and the result is a sight to behold — particularly because it contains nary a mention, implied or otherwise, of Pattinson’s very famous ex-girlfriend. (Kristen Who-art?)

Pattinson began by joking that he’s now living in a trash can behind an archway, and things just got weirder from there — especially when Kimmel brought in four female college students via Skype, and Pattinson quipped that he wanted to ask them to bring him pairs of dirty underwear. He also told stories about accidentally hanging out in a notorious dogging spot and pretending to get a prostate exam in his new movie. Really, description can’t do this appearance justice. Watch the interview for yourself below.

Leno jokes about downsizing: 'We've been taken over by Bain Capital' -- VIDEO

Tags: , , , , , , , TV

“Welcome to The Tonight Show — or, as Comcast calls us, The Expendables!” That’s how Jay Leno opened his monologue last night, just days after the show laid off 20 staffers.

All things considered, Leno seems to be taking the cuts fairly well — even though his $30 million paycheck was also slashed. “As you may have heard, our parent company has downsized The Tonight Show,” the host continued. “And we’ve consistently been number one in the ratings, and if you know anything about our network, that kind of thing is frowned upon.” Sounds like Liz Lemon may be an uncredited guest writer.

Leno went on to make cracks about the program being “taken over by Bain Capital” and waking up “with a peacock head in my bed.” It was all in good fun… provided you’re not one of the people who just lost their jobs. See Leno’s monologue for yourself below.
