Seth Rogen, Beastie Boys. Beastie Boys.

I was in a Beastie Boys music video

where I got to play a Beastie Boy,

and it was directed by a Beastie Boy,

and all the Beastie Boys were in the video,

and we shot it for three days.

And it was honestly some of the greatest three days

of my entire life.

I got to rap into the fisheye lens.

Oh my god.

It was really, really, really fun.

And me and Danny McBride and Elijah Wood played-

Oh, Danny!

The Beastie Boys.

And then Jack Black and Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly

played the older Beastie Boys.

Oh, that's so cool.

And there's a point where we were all pissing

in each other's faces,

and we had these rigs

where we could pee in each other's faces,

and you could control the pressure of the pee by like-

Oh, did you open it up?

We all opened it up on each other, and we were told to.

And to this day, one of the funniest things

I've ever seen in my life was Will Ferrell

getting like four piss streams in his eyes at the same time

as he was laughing so hard he was crying.

And he really looked like a 9-year-old kid

just at a park playing with his friends.

[all laughing]

It was wonderful.

Anyway, What is Seth Rogen's favorite strain of weed?

[Keke] Ooh!

I smoke a sativa strain.

I actually don't, I've learned,

I don't wanna say what the,

the strain I smoke is pretty hard to find as it is,

and I don't know if I want to turn everyone onto it.

What was that shit you had me on on the movie doing?

Yeah, that was it.

Man, we did another movie together.

We did another movie where we actually,

the only time I ever actually smoked weed in a scene,

really, was with you when we shot that.

Because we were like, the fake weed is really weird,

and I knew he had some good stuff.

Yeah.

But by the end of the scene, man,

I didn't even know if I was Keke Palmer or if you were.

I didn't know what was happening.

We smoked like so many joints over the, yeah.

That was crazy! That was a lot.

Good scene.

That was why you don't smoke real weed.

[Keke laughing]

Me and you, I was glad it was you.

I was glad it was you.

Anyone else, that would've really spun me out I think.

Seth Rogen gamer tag? Gamer tag!

I don't have a gamer tag.

Seth Rogen Houseplant?

Houseplant is my home goods company that is,

you know, kind of catered for people who smoke weed.

We have beverages, we sell ashtrays, lighters,

things like that.

That was with you with them nails,

when you had them nails on Goop.

Yeah, exactly, I made Gloopy nails.

Anyway, that was my thing.

Oh, you got two on yours.

Who wrote Keke Palmer new movie?

I mean, which one?

Good Fortune was written by Aziz Ansari.

There you go.

Keke Palmer works. And his incredible brother.

So when you say new Keke Palmer movie,

there's 17 movies that you could be referring to.

Eyes tight, boss. [Seth laughing]

Keke Palmer jammy eggs.

So I found out about jammy eggs, baby,

and it's the best thing you can do.

Seven minute in the boiling, you know what I'm saying?

But you take 'em out real quick, put 'em in cold ice bath.

That way that they don't get too hard on the inside.

And they're sort of runny on the inside.

You get what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah.

Crack 'em over anything you want.

Ah.

Little rice, little spinach.

Wait, wait, wait, hey. I would call that

a soft boiled egg. Egg.

No, no, no.

But wait, how does this become,

did you do something sharing how much you loved?

You had a famous jammy egg moment?

I did.

How did you, for that to be a question?

I was talking to my boy Scott Evans,

and literally I just, you know,

everybody started to realize jammy eggs is the shit.

It is! Jammy

Jammy.

And you just gave the recipe.

I sure did, and you can do anything with 'em.

I mean, not anything. Well name something.

I mean, depends on what you're in to.

Name something you can't do with them.

Forge a meaningful lifelong relationship.

What do you mean? I guess you could.

Who was Keke Palmer sorry to?

Okay, who was Keke Palmer sorry to?

This is from the Sorry to this man moment that I had.

I was- You got a lot of moments.

A lot of valuable moments. Sorry.

And I don't know how the fuck it happens.

You're just an inherently funny person.

Seth. It's true.

Thank you, I receive that.

I was saying sorry to Dick Cheney

because I didn't know who he was.

[Seth] Yes.

He could have been walking down the street

and I wouldn't have known anything.

He could have had a heart attack in front of you

and you wouldn't have known.

And I would've been like, Oh my gosh.

He's notoriously had a lot of heart attacks,

that's why I said that. You're kidding me.

Yeah, he had like-

He's gotta lay off the beef.

Yeah, he's got [laughing].

That's what'll do it, I've heard.

Dick Cheney, lay off the beef.

Try a jammy egg. Try a jammy egg.

Chat, jammy egg is better.

Next time you're reaching for beef.

But not too much, 'cause cholesterol.

Does Keke Palmer get the job in 'One of Them Days'?

So you didn't watch the movie.

She gets the job.

It's in the movie.

I got a job.

It's obscure.

The lady comes back, you know, and she wants me,

so I think I get the job.

because like any day.

No, if you can get up.

You can always get wiped out.

You're gonna have a good day.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I've never tried surfing.

But if you're really good.

You always have a good day?

No, then you want the waves.

Oh. Oh.

But that doesn't mean that you would be

a good or bad surfer.

Anyway, okay, sorry.

Can Keanu Reeves really fight?

Depends what's going on.

I love that answer.

Depends what's going on. Depends what's going on.

Do you think it's made you like,

you must have been in situations now

as a man who's played so, like are you like

if this, if something happened.

No, I'm really nice.

Yeah, but if something happened,

Like, I once learned how to, you know,

I learned how to cook chicken for a movie once.

Oh wow.

So I was, now I know I have that.

And now you're good at it. You can roast a chicken.

Yes, so now I know if I encountered a chicken

I could cook it.

Wow.

If you were to encounter many armed men, do you think?

No, but that might get me in trouble.

Yeah.

You can start thinking that you know anything.

You don't wanna think like that, yeah.

But it depends what's going on.

It depends on what's going on.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

It's funny- It's hard to pick one.

You view it as a cornucopia.

That's really is an interesting,

shows our different perspectives on life.

No.

But he wishes he could. He wishes he could.

Never too late, never too late.

It seemed like it was gonna be yeah.

Never too late. You could learn.

What would you learn if you- Why, I'm like handing this

to somebody who's not there.

If you could learn another language, what would it be?

Today I would like to speak, what do I, Latin.

Ooh, wow.

A dead language.

I'd like to be able to speak and read Latin.

That would be cool. I mean that would very cool

because it's like I'm unique. Yeah.

No, it's just because

there's so much source from the language.

There's cool stuff written in the language, yeah, yeah.

You know?

And that might be a bridge to the other ones.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then I'd pick up the room, anyway.

Yes.

All right. Okay.

How old was Seth Rogen- I loved this film.

During 'Knocked Up'?

I guess we made it in 2006, I think.

And I was born in 1982, so I was 24 I guess.

Incredible. 24.

I was 24 when we made Knocked Up.

And Pineapple Express and Superbad.

I think we made all those movies the same year.

So cool. So I was 24

in all those movies.

What were you freaking thinking,

creating such cultural classics, dude?

It was stuff we had written.

They just made it all at once.

It was stuff we had written

for years and years and years and years.

It was just, once they made our movies, they like,

we made them in a quick succession 'cause we were afraid

they wouldn't keep letting us making them.

So we made Knocked Up, Superbad, and Pineapple Express

in like one 12-month period of time basically

while I was 24 to 25, I guess.

Incredible. There you go.

How did Seth Rogen wrote 'Superbad'?

How did Seth Rogen wrote 'Superbad'?

Better than you wrote that question.

I wrote it in high school mostly with my friend Evan,

who I met in Bar Mitzvah class when we were 12.

And we're still, we still work together to this day.

We made The Studio together and we directed

and wrote that together.

But yeah, we wrote it in high school

based on our own high school experiences

as boys in Vancouver, British Columbia.

How to Seth Rogen laugh?

I don't know, I just do it.

I wish, I don't know, I'd rather know how to

not Seth Rogen laugh, but.

You would? I mean, it's-

Like, stop the music?

Stop the laughter?

The day Seth Rogen

stopped laughing? Stopped laughing.

It's a dark day.

It is.

Well, out in public a lot,

a lot of people come up to you

and are like, I didn't know it was you

and then I heard you laugh and then I realized it was you.

So, and not that I mind people coming up to me,

but I feel like maybe less people would

if I didn't laugh as loud as I do.

Did you have that laugh when you were six?

I always had this laugh.

People used to say I laughed like Beavis and Butt-Head.

That was a big thing in the '90s.

I don't mind my laugh.

And this is how to Seth Rogen laugh.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

And then you want to [inhaling],

you kind of gotta catch your breath again

and then ha ha ha ha ha.

Wait, what laugh is that?

I've never heard that laugh.

[Keke laughing]

That was a, that was a technical version of it.

[Seth laughing]

That was more it.

Does Seth Rogen fall in every episode of 'The Studio'?

I don't fall in every episode of The Studio,

but I fall in most of the episodes of The Studio,

and I view the episode that I don't fall

as real failures on my part, honestly

'cause I love a guy falling down.

It's a good physical comedy

and you can't get away from it.

There's very few funnier things in the world

than someone falling down.

I was a big fan of America's Funniest Home Videos

growing up. Oh, yes.

And I think ultimately

I'm just trying to capture the magic of that show.

A great comedy. That was a good show.

Great show.

Thank you, sir.

How did Keke Palmer get started?

I got started in Chicago,

or my first audition was like Chicago Theater,

Lion King playing Nala.

I didn't get the part, fuckers.

But I turned it all around.

You turned it all around.

And you're no resentment, and you're over it completely.

Not at all.

I mean, it's not like I went to the studio over there

and just said, Yeah, bad show.

But you know, you live and you learn.

I grew and now I'm here.

How old was Keke Palmer in True Jackson, VP?

Aw, True Jackson, VP.

Man, I was the new VP.

15.

I was 15 when it started, yeah, 17 when it was over.

It was good times.

Why is Keke Palmer Entertainer of the Year?

Good question.

Why am I Entertainer of the Year?

You're seeing it.

You're seeing it live.

You know [laughing].

Well, you know, I would like to believe

it's 'cause I have fun.

I like to do many things.

I like to entertain, you know?

If Cedric didn't take the name,

it'd be Keke Palmer the Entertainer.

Keke the Entertainer. Keke the Entertainer.

We need to take it.

He'll die one day. And I'll just swipe it

right off him. You'll take it.

Okay, Keke Palmer, 'Giants.'

Oh, yes.

So I did a legacy, the League of Legends game.

I did, I was a part of a group that they made

in that meta world,

like I was a part of this really cool group.

It was honestly the most wicked thing I'd ever been to.

Going to see everybody like,

it's like thousands and thousands of people in an arena

watching people game League of Legends.

It's the coolest thing ever.

Whoa, that is kind of cool.

It was really dope.

I liked doing the concert and being a part of it all,

and yeah, shout out to the gamers.

I see you. We see you, gamers.

I'm shocked Beastie Boys.

I, it's heartening to know that whoever's using Google

was looking up Beastie Boys stuff.

Are you surprised at the proliferation of jammy eggs?

Yeah, jammy eggs became a, you know, the jammy eggs,

I knew they were special to me.

Have they become special- You didn't realize

it resonated so much. Yeah, I didn't realize

it resonated.

And so I'm just happy about that, you know what I mean?

Keanu, any? Keanu, any surprises?

No. Nope.

Par for the course.

That's what you expected.

Everything was what I expected.

Keanu Googles himself a lot, so he knows.
