Naomi Watts Could Have Been Jimmy's Wingman for Nicole Kidman

[@misssandi1987]

I'll be honest, the Jimmy and Nicole saga will never not be funny.

[@JehRoniMo11]

True

[@Epiousios18]

What's better: Jimmy and Bradley Cooper or Jimmy and Nicole? Those are the two best interviews, imo.

[@PrettyXXEmpty]

Nick Blake Shelton and Jimmy are one of the best too

Batman, stop being lazy on youtube. You should be kicking some bad guy's ass.

[@karthu1993]

Naomi: "You should have talked to me, I could have been your wingman at the time" She would have been far better wingman than Rick!

[@Eclipse2582]

karthu1993 Wasn't Rick's fault though.

[@oni5909]

Eclipse2582 uhm yes it was?

[@Eclipse2582]

+Sathu 115 No. It really wasn't. Nicole Kidman was in Jimmy's apartment and literally didn't have to have her arm twisted to be there. Suggesting that it is Rick's fault because Jimmy is too fuckin' stupid to read between the lines is ridiculous.

[@AlexKaufman]

Rick, the most controversial unknown guy in America

[@Hollins23]

Eclipse2582: Rick could have done more to set it up better. He's not exactly a great match-maker!

[@BigRelly1]

Jimmy needs to have Rick on his show to give his version of the story...and then Nicole pops up...the three amigos together again would be too funny lol

Gorgeous

[@et5895]

I think she's one of the most beautiful, graceful women in Hollywood. But that's just my opinion.
