Welcome, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Tonight Show.

All right.

Welcome, everybody. Well, guys, everybody is still talking about President Trump's trip to the United Nations. And the White House now claims that someone at the UN Sabotaged the escalator to stop working when Trump got on it. Yep. This is the big issue people want answers to. All day long, Americans were shouting, release the escalator files. Release the escalator files.

Just do it.

The White House is now looking into who would have a grudge against Trump. And so far, they've narrowed it down to 189 countries. So that could be. They got. I mean, the whole thing was a headache for Trump, and even he couldn't take any Tylenol. So it's just. The whole thing is just. Just going to tough it out. Just gonna tough it out. The other malfunction people are talking about is during Trump's UN Speech, the teleprompter broke, and it turns out he really relies on it. I mean, it's interesting to see what Trump's staff puts in there to get him to say what they want. Watch this.

[Donald Trump (clip)]

Washington, D.C. is now a totally safe city again, and I welcome you to come. In fact, we'll have dinner together at a local restaurant. Europe is in serious trouble. They've been invaded by a force of illegal aliens like nobody's ever seen before. I'm the President of the United States, but I worry about Europe. I love Europe. I love the people of Europe. I was walking in and the leader of Brazil was walking out, but we had. At least for about 39 seconds, we had excellent chemistry. America is blessed with the strongest economy, the strongest borders, the strongest military, the strongest friendships. I want to stop seeing them ruining that beautiful Scottish and English countryside with windmills. We must reject the failed approaches of the past and work together to confront some of the greatest threats in history.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Interesting how they get them together. Well, some business news today. Michaels announced that they're putting a joann fabric section into all of their stores. Yeah, you might not care, but for your mom, this is like. This is like Taylor Swift doing a duet with Taylor Swift. You know what I'm saying? It's exi. Well, this is exciting. Tomorrow night, NBC is airing the season premieres of all of their Law and Order franchises back to back to back. Yeah, there really are a lot of them. Check out this promo I saw today.

Then on Friday, catch the season premieres of Law and Parking Tickets, Law and Porch Pirates, Law and the Trial I Turn Pretty Law and Waffle House, Law and Oops All Ditty Law and Tokyo Drift, Slaw and Chowder, The Boston Story, Duncan done and done.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, Isn't that cool?

That's a good promo. That's a good promotion right there.

I like that. Well, listen to this. Scientists released the first ever recording of leopard sharks mating in the wild. And it shows them having a threesome. And they posted the video. I'm not gonna do this joke.

Go ahead, do it.

No, no, no, we can go. No, it's all good. We can go to the next.

Don't make me do this joke.

So dumb.

No, no, no, no. I don't want to do it. I don't have to do these jokes. I don't have to do it. Fine, Valentine.

Then they posted the video and only fins.

All right, guys, give me that joke. Give me this. Terrible.

I don't want it. Who.

Just throw it away.

I don't want to say it again. I don't want to look at it. Just keep it away from me. That is your joke to keep. That's all you. That's all you. And finally. Yeah, don't be proud of it. No, it's just finally, I saw that Instagram announced that they now have 3 billion monthly active users. Yeah. Just something to think about when your post gets 12 likes. Meanwhile, a new study found that the most Instagrammable city in America is New York, while the least Instagrammable city once again is Cold Sore, Iowa.

Hey, Bud.

[Mark Wahlberg]

How are you, man?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Good to see you. And thank you so much for coming back on the show. Always love it when you're here.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Of course. Thanks for having me.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Do you know Kim Kardashian? Thanks for playing Password, dude.

[Mark Wahlberg]

I do. I've known Kim in the entire family for a while now.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You. You were telling me you. You have a story. Your family has a story involving Kim that doesn't really involve Kim.

[Mark Wahlberg]

It has nothing to do with Kim. But my kids, for whatever reason, I finally broke down and decided I was going to get my family, especially the kids, a dog.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Okay.

[Mark Wahlberg]

And I didn't tell my wife or anybody else, but I saw this dog in Beverly Hills. It was like this big. And the guy was holding in one hand. I was like, oh, this is a very manageable dog.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Mark Wahlberg]

I asked the guy said, is that the biggest the dog's gonna get? He said, yes. I said, how big's the poop? He goes, oh, it's like a little Tootsie Roll. I said, perfect. Found one of the dogs. And then I told my kids I wanted to get them to all be prepared. So I said, somebody really important is coming today. So immediately they go to my wife and say, kim Kardashian's coming over today. My wife comes barging into this meeting. Our house is a mess. You can't have them over here with.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Our house looking like this.

[Mark Wahlberg]

I'm like, whoo. What are you talking about? The kids told me, kim's coming over to the house. I said, no, I got a dog. Then she got even more mad because she didn't get to pick the kind of dog. And I told her what kind of dog it was. She said, that dog's not coming in the house. I said, well, you tell the kids when the dog gets here that the dog can't come in the house. Cut to. They bring the crate in. They put the crate down. The dog comes out of the crate, waddling out of the crate. My wife dives on the dog, basically squeezing the dog to death.

[Jimmy Fallon]

He loves it.

[Mark Wahlberg]

And now we have six dogs in our.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

So sorry, kids. No Kim Kardashian. Very random. But you have best friends for life. We just interviewed Leonardo DiCaprio for his new film, and he was telling me that he was originally was gonna be up for Boogie Nights in the movie, but you got the part. And it's one of his biggest regrets of not getting that film. But he said he couldn't imagine the film without you in it and that you were perfect and it was a masterpiece. And I was just wondering.

[Mark Wahlberg]

And I agree.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I just thought, what were your thoughts on that, being one of your peers giving you compliments on you?

[Mark Wahlberg]

Yeah, actually. Well, you know, he and I met during the Basketball Diaries. I don't think either one of us was too excited about the idea of working together, but we had never really met other than on, like, some MTV basketball game thing. And we didn't quite hit it off. But my friend was directing that film at the time we met. We became fast friends, and he actually recommended me for that part and also recommending me for other parts as well. Yeah, he. You know, we were all kind of meeting for the same roles. I had also met Jim Cameron for Titanic, but he had the offer.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You were up for Titanic?

[Mark Wahlberg]

I met on Titanic. I never got an offer on Titanic. But.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Wait, so you met James Cameron?

[Mark Wahlberg]

Yeah, and all I wanted to do. He's like, I don't think he took me seriously, because I was like, is that your Hummer outside? He was like, yeah. I was like, can I drive that?

[Jimmy Fallon]

He was like, what?

[Mark Wahlberg]

Yeah, do you want to talk about the movie, I said, no, I want to drive the Hummer. Is that the one Arnold drove? And so I had met on that, but he recommended me to Paul to play that role. And he was always a big advocate for me after we worked together on the basketball dial.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Good man, good. I'd love to hear that. We always get into some fun things. And I want to say one of your last films, which I enjoyed, called Flight Risk, your character has a definite different hairstyle. I can just show. Yeah. You saw this? Yeah. So that's your hair. But here's what's great. This isn't a ball cap. Mark shaved his head.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Yeah, well, there's nothing worse than three hours in the makeup chair. It's like takes five minutes to do that. And then they just kind of, you know, buzz the little stubble off every day. And it was also an ode to my dad and many of my other relatives. But I pitched the idea to Mel, the director, and I was like, hey, what do you think about that? I was like, when she shocks me with the stun gun, what if my hat falls off and my hair is attached to it? He was like, what? It was just this crazy idea that I had. And he was like, would you really do that? I said, yeah. So that kind of. That's how it happened.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And did the kids freak out?

[Mark Wahlberg]

When I walked into my house with that hairdo, my wife dove under the covers.

[Jimmy Fallon]

So she put the dog on your head. Yeah, exactly. Exactly.

[Mark Wahlberg]

And my poor dog has alopecia now.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, you're joking.

[Mark Wahlberg]

No, I'm not. It's a Pomeranian teacup. It was the most beautiful dog. He looked exactly like Ted the bears, which is why I loved him. I wanted to get him. And now he has alopecia.

[Jimmy Fallon]

All right, well, we still love him either way, of course. Next time you're on the show, please bring him on the show, Champ.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Oh, he'll bite the out of you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

He won't. Yeah, I don't want him. Nevermind. Never mind. Champ, relax. I just want to give you a shout out, buddy.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Yeah, I'll send you a video.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Champ, your wife made me laugh. She posted a picture of you shaving your bald head and she put for better or for worse. That's a good sense of humor. I love that. I follow you on socials and I enjoy following you. I like to see your routine is amazing. You wake up at 4am you work out, you work out with your wife, and you have lunch with your wife. You said that you had the same lunch for the past Two years.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Yeah. I'm a creature of habit. I did change it up. I went from rotisserie chicken to grilled chicken, but that was the big change.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Good for you, bud. You're a different man. Unbelievable.

[Mark Wahlberg]

You know, I just. Creature of habit.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And it's working for you, but I.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Have, you know, have a little something here and there.

[Jimmy Fallon]

If it's a special occasion, what is your cheat meal?

[Mark Wahlberg]

Listen, I love pizza. I love burgers. I love chocolate. I love cookies.

[Jimmy Fallon]

What's your favorite pizza locale's in Brooklyn? The college in Brooklyn. Oh, my gosh. Now when you eat a slice of pizza, do you have to, like, work out and not talk to anyone for like a month or.

[Mark Wahlberg]

No, you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You can just do it and have fun.

[Mark Wahlberg]

No, no, no.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Not at all.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Yeah, you might get a little gas.

[Jimmy Fallon]

But yeah, just because.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Shock to the system.

[Jimmy Fallon]

We're friends at Mark from Lucali. From Lucali. And I just. I don't want to tempt you, but this is some of the best pizza in the United States, right?

[Mark Wahlberg]

In the world.

[Jimmy Fallon]

In the world.

[Mark Wahlberg]

[Jimmy Fallon]

That's what I'm talking about. Cheers, bud.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Thank you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Good to see you as always. I'm talking about. I love this dude.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Delicious.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Look at that. Let's talk about Play Dirty. Mm. It's an action packed heist. It's a thriller, crazy stunts, great fight scenes, but you're also very funny in this. What drew you to this role?

[Mark Wahlberg]

Shane Black, one of my favorite writer directors. Also.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Richard Stark.

[Mark Wahlberg]

The source material. Parker is a very famous character. Lee Marvin played him in Point Blank. Robert Duvall played him in the outfit. And so this was the kind of character that my dad would have always wanted to see me in.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Come on.

[Mark Wahlberg]

Just such a great, iconic character. You know, here's a guy who lives by a specific code, and if you turn on him or you double cross them, then it's over, no matter what. Great, great twist in the movie. Yeah. And it's a guy going back to get revenge and rob a crew that he used to work for that told him he wasn't allowed in New York City anymore, so he's determined to take them down.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Ray Katz. I love a good revenge.

Mark Wahlberg, everybody. Play dirty begins streaming October 1st on Prime Video. Kim Kardashian joins us after the break. Stick around.

Hi, guys. I love you guys.

I miss you. You guys are always great to me. Do you remember back in the late night days, you helped me and we. On St. Patty's Day, we all went to a bar together.

[Kim Kardashian]

Yes.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You do remember that?

[Kim Kardashian]

I do remember that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

We had finger puppets.

Yes.

You were always supportive of me. Thank you so much. It's always great to see you. Welcome, welcome, welcome.

Thank you, Kim.

Last time we saw each other, you were at the SNL 50th, and you were in the cold open sketch with Kristen Wiig, and you were so funny. And the Lawrence Welk sketch. No, you were fantastic.

[Kim Kardashian]

Thank you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

There's you. And was it Ana Gasteyer, Kristen Wiig, Will Ferrell, Scarlett Johansson? Were you nervous?

[Kim Kardashian]

No, I oddly don't get nervous. It's like, yeah, yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, it's nervous.

[Kim Kardashian]

It's a thing.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Ever?

[Kim Kardashian]

Never.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Was that always the case?

[Kim Kardashian]

Yeah, Never gets nervous.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Never gets nervous.

[Kim Kardashian]

Like I. When I.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Wait, Chloe, are you. Are you.

[Kim Kardashian]

No comment. When do I get nervous? How do I know if you get nervous or not? I don't know.

[Jimmy Fallon]

She's not even getting nervous right now. She's laughing at this. You laugh in the face of getting nervous?

[Kim Kardashian]

Of nerves.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, but, like, when you took your driver's test, you just passed it. Cause you didn't get nervous.

[Kim Kardashian]

I passed. I didn't get nervous.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, I would have been. Cause I was like, this is the cold open. Every star in the world is in the audience, and everyone's sitting there. You go, oh, my gosh, what are they even gonna do? I knew that Kristen was working on something with Will. I did not know you were there. The audience was all surprised because you start with your back and you turn like, I'm Holly.

[Kim Kardashian]

And the wig.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And the wig. You look so good, but crushed. You held your own with comedy giants.

[Kim Kardashian]

I mean, I think the key is I hadn't really seen the Dunes sketch. That's Kristen Wiig's character. And I think if you go into something kind of, like, blissfully unaware, you just do your best and you don't have that, like, pressure of having to live up to, like, when I hosted snl.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes.

[Kim Kardashian]

This is horrible. I had never seen it, and then I watched. But I love you. I went and watched everything that you did.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You would have.

[Kim Kardashian]

As a reference.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You would have loved it. You would have loved me.

[Kim Kardashian]

So I. I have since seen no clips.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You have not seen Saturday Night Live. So when you came in, you crushed it.

[Kim Kardashian]

I just didn't want. I watched one person's monologue as a reference. And after I watched it, I go, oh, I can. I think I can do that. And I. Oh, my God. I felt confident.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Can you tell me something? We don't have to air this, but I heard a rumor that you went and got a tattoo after Siren it live.

[Kim Kardashian]

I did. Yeah. Yeah. Me and all my friends. Yeah. I'm like. I was well known for always saying, like, you should never put a bumper sticker on a Bentley.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I remember you said that you will never get a tattoo. Why put a bumper sticker on a Bentley?

[Kim Kardashian]

Yeah. And tattoos were, like, against my ethos, everything. And so you did get a tattoo when. Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Can you show me?

[Kim Kardashian]

I got it in my mouth so that no one would see it. But I got it with all my friends, an infinity symbol, all my girls that came and supported me.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Is it in your mouth?

[Kim Kardashian]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

Oh, my gosh. Did it hurt?

[Kim Kardashian]

It didn't. I have a really high pain tolerance also. Yeah. Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I don't have. You don't have pain or get nervous? You're superhuman now. Do you ever forget that you have the tattoo in your lip?

[Kim Kardashian]

I do. And it's so funny. Cause sometimes I'll be flossing, and then I'll see something dark in my mouth, and I'll be like, oh, my God. What is that? I'm gonna die.

[Jimmy Fallon]

There's so much. I didn't even eat kale this morning. Yeah.

[Kim Kardashian]

Oh, wait, no. That's just my tattoo. Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Well, this will be fun, though. Last time you were here, we talked about your kids were ready for you to date, and they were making lists of people that you should date.

[Kim Kardashian]

They continue to do that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. They're trying to set you up. Have you been dating at all? Has anyone?

[Kim Kardashian]

No.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Did Chloe or your mom ever try to set you up with anyone you know?

[Kim Kardashian]

And my mom's mom, she tried to. She told me. You guys have to hear this. She told me I had a business, I had a job interview, and she told me to go to the restaurant, the Ivy, which is, like, on Robertson. It was like, at the time, it was before we even had Keeping up with the Kardashians. And it was like, this TV executive, and she told me it was a job Interview, but she told him it was a date. And so I pull up and I go, and I'm, like, talking about, like, what I want to do. And I had a resume on me. I don't think she thought I'd be.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Able to, oh, my gosh.

[Kim Kardashian]

Bring a resume. Once I, like, five minutes in, I realized what was up. I, like, put it in my purse.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And I was like, here's my resume. I'm going to date you. And look at what I've done. How embarrassing.

[Kim Kardashian]

I was like, I'm going to kill you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Did the date not.

[Kim Kardashian]

I don't think he ever knew until, like, years and years later.

[Jimmy Fallon]

But no chemistry.

[Kim Kardashian]

No.

[Jimmy Fallon]

What was your feedback on your end?

[Kim Kardashian]

Totally new. Because he was also an Emmy award winning. Can you stop?

[Jimmy Fallon]

He said, no, I'm not going to say his name.

[Kim Kardashian]

But he said, would it help if I brought my Emmy with me?

[Jimmy Fallon]

What?

[Kim Kardashian]

That's a red flag. He was kidding. But I thought, this is never gonna work.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No.

[Kim Kardashian]

You also wanted to set me up with someone that thought, like, an Emmy was what was gonna, like, seal the deal. Yeah. Well.

[Jimmy Fallon]

This is so funny. Oh, my God. Do you know the person now? Currently. Mom, are you still Chris? Are you friends with him?

[Kim Kardashian]

I plead the Fifth.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Okay, there you are. No hints. All right, good, good.

[Kim Kardashian]

We'll talk about this.

[Jimmy Fallon]

But wait, do you have any idea?

[Kim Kardashian]

We'll talk about it later.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Kim, would you ever set up Kim ever again?

[Kim Kardashian]

I would trust her advice for sure.
