Kathy Bates stopped by Late Night with Seth Meyers last night to promote next week’s release of Bad Santa 2, as well as American Horror Story: Roanoke which wrapped up last night. In the above segment, Meyers had just rolled a clip from the film, which somehow involved Bates poking Billy Bob Thornton (who plays her son in the film) with a pink dildo while the two get drunk in a van. “It kind of takes ‘poking fun’ to the Nth degree,” Bates joked.
This led to Meyers cracking a joke about how he’ll always think of pink dildos on Christmas from now on, alluding to a vibrating stocking. “Do you know that happened to me once?,” Bates jumped in. “This is not the list of what we were supposed to talk about!” The hell with lists, I say.
Bates relayed how many years ago she was dating kind of a “rough guy” and on the way to Chicago they stopped at a store “where you can get, you know, the stuff,” she said, making a hand motion that was more than sufficient. Once she and her beau got to the hotel, Bates said that she had the thing in her pocketbook, and it ended up going off in the elevator. Not to spoil the whole story, but 100 percent worth it to hear Kathy Bates say, “It was a dildo gone awry!” This woman is a national treasure.
