That's no good. Next?

So, we're about to meet Carson Daly, who is a host amongst many other things... for, mostly, the music industry. So we're hoping to sort of secure, um, backstage tickets-- something to that extent.
So we wanted to talk to you about some potential ideas for donations for tomorrow's event.
So, what type of New York concerts are coming up?
The Christmas shows, which are really popular.
- Are you emceeing any of them or--
- I'll probably do something at the Z100 Christmas "Jingle Ball."
It's like a very, very big event.
So would you be open to doing something like hosting a limo ride and nine tickets... for a group of people to attend that event?
It is a great musical experience. It's one of the few when you get all these artists under one roof at one time.

- So, you know Tiger Woods? I know you've played with him. Could you guys get a round together and maybe fill it out with another couple?

That's shooting high.
I can't get Tiger Woods these days to do my own musical show, not to mention play golf.
But he loves golf, and so do you, so you can go out and have some fun.
Yeah, I know, it sounds simple, but he's very busy.

I like the Z100 Jingle Ball.
But would you feel comfortable, then, taking them backstage, introducing them, and they would get to stay and experience the entire ball?
I think that's viable.
How 'bout like-- going back to the golf thing for just a second-- like a celebrity and you, so we don't know who this other celebrity is yet.
Let's stick to this Z100 thing. I think that's a good idea.
Celebrities are real people. They just happen to be doing jobs in the public's sight. And it's just a business transaction for me.
So, we've got your commitment, then, for the experience of a "Day in the Life with Carson Daly... at Z100 Jingle Ball"?
Tammy is a loose cannon. If it were up to me, I would actually... request that she never attended any meetings that we had.
Okay, we'll send you a copy.

Disco bowling. With the flashing lights and the music?
You want to be an intern, don't you?
Troy and l work so well together. He's from Idaho, and he's aggressive, but he's a little bit more passive, and that Southern charm-- I get that New York in me. I'm aggressive. I like to close the deal. I think I did a-- [ Beeps ] fantastic job.

We go to meet with the Fab Five, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. I wanted to have a strategy to warm these guys up. What is their job? Their job is to critique straight men. You can't have a straighter man than a country kid from Boise, Idaho. I simply took my belt off, slipped it off, and I stuffed it into my bag.
