Ha! Stephen: "Wow. The stars are so beautiful." Nicole: "Thank you."

[@thenightsky92]

The mind of a child , the body of an adult . You could be the president thats savage 😂

[@Widdekuu91]

+Junaid I actually think that first line was a bit creepy. Being attracted to a child trapped in a adults body is pedophilic. But youknow, I'm probably reading too much into it. Nevermind.

[@TheJrbdog]

I think you got that mixed up.

[@Keytaster]

I totally adore Nicole for being bad at this and also super giggly

[@GlennDavey]

Nicole is always more delightful than you expect. Every time. She's like Olivia Colman: how is this lady such a good actress and but so natural in interviews?

[@catherinealmonti4301]

Bc kk bc CB facial

[@sweiland75]

Jimmy Fallon must be jealous of Stephen being this close to Nicole.

[@RedLP5000S]

He's too busy pretending to be a teenager.

[@GlennDavey]

She's always delightful on Jimmy, so I'm glad she brought that across to Stevie...

[@retnavybrat]

Her getting the giggles right from the start was so cute.

[@muraddiab6393]

2:25 that swipe at CBS was savage AF and Jon Batiste's laugh in the background was the icing on the cake.

[@prophetzarquon1922]

It's okay, most of their audience won't remember.

[@muraddiab6393]

Prophet Zarquon 😂 you're probably right

[@dan428]

It wasn’t really a swipe.. it’s a successful show for CBS

[@nurlindafsihotang49]

@@dan428 why did you think CBS execs leave Colbert taking shots at them? If not because he and the show are their "golden goose"

[@fadhilramadhani1847]

KIDMAN IS OFFICIALLY MY NEW FAVORITE SUPERHERO❤

[@GreenDragon11]

I’d be “Kid man”. Priceless

[@CoachingHigher]

"So she won't get harassed on the subway." Nailed it

[@juancpgo]

What if god is one of the other dozens of genders? Highly offensive!!!! People shouldn't dare trying to attributing gender to anybody. It's just mean and evil. I'm kidding.

[@GilesEternick]

"So *she* won't get harassed on the subway." Pure gold.

[@Uri478]

That president line pure gold

[@cloggedaorta]

She seems so fun and authentic

[@WooMaster777]

I love the nick names they call each other! 😄😁😆

[@hoonyhaany]

She's so lovely 😍

[@fattabby5011]

"The mind of a child the body of an adult" "Well you could be president" 🤣🤣

[@klarastern5597]

This woman... she's just awesome... just watching her talk makes me happy :D

[@lovelyjubly7]

Oh my God oh my God oh my God!!! This segment is back!!!!! Yaaaaaaayyyyyy 🙏🏼✨✨✨✨

[@MatthewOne1]

+lovelyjubly7 My favorite segment too! :)

[@NONPOINT420]

This is, so far, my favorite "Big Questions with Even Bigger Stars"!

[@kitty6720]

I love this segment. I remember when Stephen did it with Brad Pitt, it was hilarious!

[@stewfu]

Kitty yesssssss!!!!!

[@luvvinallmusik5748]

Kitty Riiight?! Bradamir Pittin is one of the most clever nicknames.

[@Mehwhatevr]

I miss this segment. was Matthew Macaunahey (however you spell his last name) the last time he did this segment is Jan 2019?

[@Arwen1964]

Best one by far was with Benny Cumberbatch. Though the one with Jennifer Lawrence comes pretty close.

[@prophetzarquon1922]

_"In. Public. ..."_

[@kidfisch]

Because Steve Bannon already nailed that skill in private...

[@MrStensnask]

I really like that she's so giggly

[@potionseller1024]

Ha she just cracks up at everything while stephen is just completely in character

[@curdey]

Gorgeous woman, inside and out!

[@darkracer86]

She's so cute and playful!!!

[@Swordtee40]

I like it when she says "Oscar". Reminds me when she was on Sesame Street.

[@mos4396]

i love Nicole

[@user-lj8bl8wq8u]

I also love Botox.

[@NewMessage]

What truly differentiates us from the animals is that we can operate a vacuum cleaner without running away screaming. Because I've seen that public crotch licking before.. Before Times Square got cleaned up.

[@bluesteel8376]

I guess you have never had a dog hump your leg before.

[@svartfrasr9755]

For some reason while watching this one, I got the strong desire to see Jason Mamoa do this sketch with him xD

[@irenerosalie590]

I love Nicole Kidman she's one in my favorite actress 💖😍🔥

[@HarjeetSingh-cc3ml]

EverydayShay Irène why did Tom leave her.She is a very good person.

[@HarjeetSingh-cc3ml]

Jypsy Dog not true fake news

[@fetB]

just wished she could have kept it together for a minute

[@natalie651]

She's she's objectively one of the best ever.

[@ourblueheavendesign]

Harjeet Singh Scientology! She wouldn’t go along!

[@RinRin_c]

It's back.. Gosh I love this segment!

[@Bad80y1]

She has a hard time aging. So adorable. This was great. She couldn’t keep a straight face.

[@daverumpel]

My she's so adorable

[@linhanan1415]

Love them so much ❤

[@GlennDavey]

Nicole always seems so surprised that people like her. It's very endearing. I would very much enjoy going on a date with her if she wasn't already very much in love.

[@ms.fortune666]

She's just having the time of her life aaand I just love it!

[@randall.chamberlain]

This is awesome

[@NewMessage]

I would have gone with "Under the stars.. with even bigger stars'.

[@elchucofried5683]

New Message if you get 100s of likes because of this comment people are just followers and can't think for themselves

[@biswalmamuni]

Yeah so much better :)

[@666Tomato666]

+elchucofried somebody is _jealous_

[@elchucofried5683]

Alena G oh I have a sense of humor but this was just cringy lol

[@WendellsCat]

Yeah, but it's not about astronomy. The point is that when people sit under the stars, they start to get all philosophical and ask dumb questions of each other.

[@divaaaaa]

I love her laugh

[@saultube44]

A street philosophy segment, nice, reasoning even in jokes is good

[@ericthompson3982]

This may be the cutest one of these ever.

[@bentknee5924]

How is she worse at keeping a straight face than Fallon?

[@Widdekuu91]

+Bent I'm not sure, I would expect her botox to help, but instead it makes it worse.

[@kcbh24]

Bent Knee fan It's not often these celebrities get to do creative, fun segments like this. When they go through the usual interview cycles, it's the same setup, same questions. Here, she just gets to play. It's as fun for her doing as us watching.

[@jimsvideos7201]

Academy Award viewer Steven Colbert o.O

[@MCShvabo]

Ladies and gentleman, an academy award winning actress that can not go through the scene without laughing like a drunk teenager.

[@mhubbardbeale1]

That's true

[@IWasAPepper]

I know what was before the Big Bang. I think it was How I Met Your Mother.

[@AsFewFalseThingsAsPossible]

If you haven't seen it, Dogville - just an amazing piece of work.

[@GD-tt6hl]

I've had a crush on Nicole Kidman for so long, I actually said, oh, cool that really hot actress I like is going to be in a movie with Tom Cruise about NASCAR. hmmm dem curls

[@prophetzarquon1922]

... Is... Is that sarcasm? For the sake of my sanity I'm going to assume that was sarcasm. Nothing you just said sounded like something I'd watch.

[@BenieTheDragon]

1:39: Way to break the 4th wall there.

[@ummmidunno8308]

I wish he would do this sometime with random people.. Maybe calling it Big Questions with the Little Dippers.. Lol

[@navinkumar007]

I love you so much

[@kiddorange1450]

steve in the evening

[@Tesla_Death_Ray]

That is... really not a flattering angle.

[@cactikaty]

this is very funny

[@lazyperfectionist1]

Whoa. John Batiste is rockin' a top. It ties his suit together rather _well,_ I think.

[@GaiaCarney]

Thank you, Jon Batiste! Music Man 💖

[@bennyton2560]

oscar viewer Stephen Colbert lololol. Also I didn't know they're both Catholic!

[@RedLP5000S]

Breathtaking goddess.

[@nehirakinn]

Stephen should do this with Seth MacFarlane!

[@jamesm6413]

She’s having a good time.

[@ELENIKARASAVVIDOU]

that was brilliant!

[@Uri478]

Get her steve lol

[@OldTeaMate]

3:27 I don't know ... I'm not Steve Bannon!

[@tyrant-den884]

Who else misses this segment? Or any of his old bits.

[@jyanneskye2535]

Nicole is so gorgeous 😍

[@elsonrix1]

Her smile during wide shots always scares me.

[@caixapreta2]

She's always adorable.

[@patriciamcgeorge2575]

"mind of a child, body of an adult" - so.... normal adult?

[@GdoubleWB]

What happened before The Big Bang? The Big Foreplay.

[@MatthewOne1]

+GdoubleWB Epic.

[@maceymurrell9967]

where we "get-deep!" wow

[@DuranmanX]

2:28 Making fun of the guys that sign your paychecks?

[@OriginalPiMan]

Adrian Duran Works for The Simpsons writers.

[@dalicloud9]

accurate, self-deprecating humor is something everyone can enjoy.

[@Sam-Ra]

And promoting one of their biggest hits don't forget that

[@Matty80822]

Yes, said everybody who's ever worked a job under someone.

[@BenTIStudios]

Self-deprecation sells. Everyone does it, especially in Late Night TV. Been done for years. Carson, Letterman, etc All of them have, do, and will always use that style of humor. Making jokes about themselves AND their network their show airs on.

[@daleclements5079]

Unintentional Pro Era reference? Nyck@Knight

[@zapfanzapfan]

I thought there would be a Steve Bannon joke in there with the crotch licking :-)

[@dannydevtio8942]

live and let it be

[@samasterchef]

How did he pass up the opportunity to call her ‘Nicole Bear’?

[@elfletcha]

She looked like The Grinch, played by Jim Carey

[@WindFireAllThatKindOfThing]

I kind of half expected Matt Damon to show up bigger than shit in the night skyscape where God normally pops up. Or Stephen's wife Evelyn wondering wtf he is doing on a blanket with Nicole Kidman at night.

[@The1AndOnlyGoldenboy]

Hnyahhh-haaaaa

[@Kulascus]

Stephen needs a real sidekick

[@krisinsaigon]

That is the light so many people spend their careers desperately trying to avoid lighting Nicole Kidman's face with

[@tiwozo718]

😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@boredofvideogames]

lolol so she wont get harassed on the subwayyyyyy

[@stevenamann6372]

all the heavenly angels where working on creating life time travelling angels but you know all about that

[@mcfishyfirst253]

Or Pluto said "I ate what"?

[@osivot]

Why is it you didn't loose the use of your legs in The Killing of a Sacred Deer

[@stonecoldku4161]

"Mind of a child, but body of an adult.""You could be President."Well she couldn't be President because she wasn't born in the US...Governor maybe.

[@patrickfoley4990]

Stephen, is Nicole Kidman longer or taller than you.It must have been hard on Tom Cruise to always be on his tippy toes.

[@whatthefuuuuuu4720]

Patrick Foley she's taller

[@OriginalPiMan]

I'm guessing he mostly stood on boxes.

[@jenniferloftus2363]

Nah, it's no biggie to be with someone taller than you are. Many women have done it for centuries, although we are on our toes a lot now that high heels are so inexpensive.

[@jennhoff03]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@da96103]

Actually Tom forbade Nicole from wearing high heels when she was with him.

[@terminalsarcasm]

Is she the first person to break laughter in Big Questions?

[@Literarydilettante]

She is perfect.

[@LonelyStar831]

Nicole is sooooo cute in this sketch!!!

[@AA-jj8bg]

Jon Jon.. Oh Jon.. Can Steven ever live without calling Jon?? Batiste or Stewart?

[@devonmiller636]

Was that a dying seagull in the background?

[@bkppppppp]

I love how they placed her hair to try make the angle more flattering

[@samtheend376]

I didn’t get her last joke can someone explain?

[@TheJessy8888]

Sam TheEnd SHE supposed to be god (god's gender question), so she grew a beard to avoid harassment...

[@samtheend376]

TheJessy8888 Harassed on the subway I thought she said her ass LOL thank you so much

[@da96103]

Nicole said harassed but sounded like 'arassed'.

[@avancons1]

Why does it look like those aren't their actual bodies while lying down

[@gear5soul]

Kidman would be jimmy Fallon

[@PalmurcioWorld]

She's adorable.

[@yvetjo9568]

I wish he could've asked her, "Why Tom Cruise can't seem to maintain a relationship?" Because he needs a relationship intervention.

[@jenniferloftus2363]

Why should she answer for Cruise? What's a relationship intervention?

[@luigipatache7211]

God here. I like the ,,humans do not li.ck their behinds in public.`` I gave this video a Thumbs up

[@testingttest5723]

Hate2loveu

[@VfletchS]

Why is this bit a regular thing?

[@ethanrogers4610]

Nicole Kidman is beautiful, elegant, and she is a great actress.
