During the May 20 episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast, the talk show host chatted with The Lonely Island members Andy Samberg and Akiva Schaffer (Jorma Taccone was not present) about the satirical song "Mona Lisa" that was cut from the 2016 movie Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping. At the start of the episode, Meyers, 51, mentioned how bummed he was to miss out on Dennis Franz appearing on the previous podcast episode to chat about NYPD Blue. "I kinda couldn't believe you guys talked about Dennis Franz for that long and didn't mention that the Dennis Franz line is the hardest I've ever laughed at a Lonely Island [song]," Meyers said of "Mona Lisa," adding that he thinks about the song "all the time." "I'm really happy sometimes because the run of lyrics that starts, 'I'm an American,' is maybe my favorite series of lines," he continued. is now available in the Apple App Store!

"You, I think, more than anyone I know like that song," Samberg, 46, said, "And people like that song but you like it — it maybe is your favorite of our songs." The late-night host also noted that his admiration of the song also ties into the first time he heard it with then-Saturday Night Live producer Mike Shoemaker. "The lore about 'Mona Lisa' is that you sent it to Shoemaker and I. We were in my office, and we laughed so hard that I threw up and he farted," Meyers said. "I literally started choking and threw up into my trash can, and he farted." Though Meyers' favorite Lonely Island track didn't make it to the movie itself, it is part of the soundtrack. The Lonely Island came to be during Samberg, Schaffer and Taccone's tenure on Saturday Night Live starting in 2005.

Why Leslie Bibb Thought 'We're All Getting Diarrhea' After Filming ‘White Lotus' Water Gun Scene
The water gun scene in The White Lotus season three was just as chaotic to film as it looked in the show, according to Leslie Bibb. During a recent appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers, the actress, who played Kate in the Mike White-created series, explained why she thought 'we're all getting diarrhea' after filming the sequence with her costars Carrie Coon (Laurie) and Michelle Monaghan (Jaclyn).

Discovery Upfront: Branding Whiplash and "The 'White Lotus' Effect" Sarah Sherman Says She "Obviously Never Meant to Hurt" Aimee Lou Wood's "Feelings" With 'SNL' 'White Lotus' Parody Inside the Amazon Upfront: There's No Escaping Walton Goggins The episode four scene saw the BFF trio get drenched by water guns as children were celebrating Thai New Year. While it started off fun, things quickly get intense and they're seen running to find somewhere to hide. 'When we were there, [the festival] actually happened in real time and everyone's like, 'Let's go!'' Bibb recalled of shooting the scene. 'And I was like, 'No, I want to experience' — I was Daniel Day Lewis–ing it — I was like, 'I'm gonna experience it for real between action and cut.'' However, it quickly went south. 'We got there and it was like 300 extras, all with water guns, and it was a nightmare,' she told host Seth Meyers. 'I looked over and our crew members had [water guns], and they were just shooting at us, and I was like, 'This is a nightmare.'' Bibb continued, 'Then suddenly I feel like I became like my character. I was like, 'Where is this water coming [from]?' Because it's not the cleanest water in Thailand.' Since it's typically advised to avoid consuming tap water when visiting Thailand, Bibb said she grew worried and started asking several questions while filming. 'I'd be like, 'Is that bottled?' They're like, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,'' she recounted. 'And I was like, 'Oh, we're all getting diarrhea. We're all getting diarrhea. This is all going nowhere.'' While Bibb was notably stressed that day, she noted that it was still a celebratory moment, as it was towards the end of filming for season three. 'I think it was Carrie's last day and so it felt very celebratory and everyone was so mischievous. And then we finished all the beach stuff, and we went back to Bangkok, and then Sammy showed up in Bangkok,' Bibb said, referring to her husband, Sam Rockwell, who also had quite the memorable cameo in the latest season.

Olivia Munn hilariously reveals how she gave her daughter the wrong name in attempted tribute to mom
So much for a mother's instinct. Actress Olivia Munn recently shared a humorous revelation about naming her 7-month-old daughter, Méi June, during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers. Munn, 44, and her husband, comedian John Mulaney, 42, believed they were honoring Munn's mother by incorporating her nickname into their daughter's name. The couple chose "Méi," meaning "plum" in Chinese, to reflect Munn's heritage. They added "June" as a middle name after Munn's mother mentioned that people used to call her by that name. "One day we were driving, and my mom just says out of nowhere, 'You know, people call me June.' My mom's name is Dung. It's spelling D-u-n-g. And so, she said, 'You know, people call me June,'' she told Meyers. While Munn never heard anyone call her mom by that name, she didn't think much of it, and told Mulaney about the conversation. "So then later, John's saying, 'You know, that would be such a pretty name and such a great way to honor your mother. So why don't we name her Méi June?'' Munn recalled. After announcing their daughter's name to the family, however, Munn noticed her mother's lack of enthusiasm in a group text announcing Mei June's birth. "And then an hour later, my mom comes to the hospital and she's holding the baby, and I realized she didn't say anything about the name yet. So I said, 'Mom! What do you think about her name?' And she goes, 'It's okay,'' Munn said. The Predator actress said her mother proceeded to suggest new middle names for the newborn, which confused the new parents. 'Then one day, it hits me," Munn said. "So my mom loves to talk. She just talks." It turns out, Munn's mom made up the story for conversational purposes. Despite the unexpected twist, Munn and Mulaney decided to keep the name. 'So, yeah, she's kind of in honor of my mother, but I hope she doesn't grow up to be as big a liar," Munn joked to Meyers. The couple, who married in July 2024, also share a 3-year-old son, Malcolm Hiệp. They welcomed Méi via a gestational surrogate in September 2024, following Munn's breast cancer diagnosis in early 2023.
