Jimmy jokingly responded, “Give me a break, you are unbelievable, before explaining that “the only reason” she hasn’t been on the show more is because she lives in Los Angeles.
“We love you!” he said.
Jamie then mentioned being “born and raised in the City of Angels,” to which Jimmy scoffed at and said “no one calls it that.”
The Halloween star looked exasperated as she looked at the crowd and back at the host before teasingly asking, “Wow. Are we going to get into, like, a thing?”
Of course, Jimmy was quick to say no, of course not.
“No! The thing is this: You have an open invitation, and I want you to come on the show anytime you’re in New York. I don’t care what you have going on. Anything. I absolutely adore you and everyone on the staff absolutely adore you,” he assured her.
Finally, Jamie seemed content.
She also did praise him, “You’re a very nice man. You’re handsome. You have a very talented group of people,” referring to the Roots. “Nice audience.”
“This is why I want you to come back every week. So good for my ego!” the host joked.
