Jimmy Kimmel Live’s best interviews with guest hosts
What happens when you combine the biggest movie star in the world with the biggest television star in the world? You get this interview between Kim Kardashian West and Jennifer Lawrence on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
Lawrence is a self-described superfan of Keeping Up with the Kardashians and the entire Kardashian/Jenner family. Jimmy Kimmel Live!‘s guests hosts are typically invited to choose at least one guest and it’s clear Lawrence got her first pick with Kim Kardashian West.
In the 18-minute long interview, the two shared stories about hanging out together at Kardashian West’s house, talked about relationships, and family. Fans clearly had an appetite for the combination of Lawrence and Kardashian West as the clip has earned over 30 million views on YouTube.
Another interview featuring excellent chemistry and mutual admiration between guest and host came in 2017. Parks and Recreation star Adam Scott sat down with The Good Place star and guest host Kristen Bell. The two talked about how their on-screen interactions are nothing like the friendly exchanges they’ve had off-screen.
But the real highlight of the interview came when Bell delivered a birthday surprise to Scott. After the actor shared a heartwarming story of inviting Mark Hamill to his birthday party around the time Empire Strikes Back was hitting theaters, Bell made Scott’s dream come true.
It’s impossible not to smile while watching the genuine look of shock and happiness on Scott’s face. He was not joking when he said it was one of the best moments of his life and his friendship with Hamill has continued.
