[the camera cuts to the Tonight Show stage entrance, and Jude emerges wearing a handsome black pin-striped blazer, white button-up shirt underneath and black pants. The crowd screams and applauds as he smiles, making his way over to Jay�he shakes his hand, hugs him, and they whisper in each other�s ears. Jude finally takes his seat and looks out into the crowd and grins as he adjusts his blazer]
L: How are ya, buddy? Good to see ya.
Jude: I�m very well.
L: You�re on the cover of America�s coolest magazine, Vanity Fair, let�s show that right there� [Jay holds up a copy of the magazine as the camera gets a close-up, and the audience screams and whistles. Jude chuckles and looks out into the audience] Well, I love this part: it�s the �Jude Gone Wild�!
J: Yeah, I don�t know what that�s all about.
L: What is your idea of �going wild�? Is there� do you� what would be �going wild�?
J: Ooo� [ponders for a moment and smiles] Lying in bed �til 12:30 [audience chuckles].
L: Really?
J: [still smiling, he looks up pensively] Um� I dunno, what else? That�s about it, that�s as wild as I get.
L: That�s about it, eh� maybe if we were cable�
J: I�m never going to admit to it [laughs].
L: Exactly! You�re not going to admit to it, anyway.
J: [smiling] No.
L: Well what else do they say� [starts flipping through the magazine] Oh, they say�oh, and I got stuck with this moniker� look, �devastatingly handsome�. That was always annoying [Jude laughs]. So I just put on weight so I could lose it.
J: I just use the CGI excuse now. I�ve got a very good team of CGI experts following me everywhere [licks bottom lip].
L: And it�s all done with computers, yeah�
J: I�m actually�I�m just blue, really [audience chuckles].
L: Well, I� what�s the most ridiculous thing you�ve ever read about yourself? Is there something where you just kinda went� �oh, this is so stupid�?
J: Um� [laughs] I read somewhere that I�d been dating David Beckham for four years [raises his eyebrows and protrudes his lips at the silly idea, and the audience erupts into laughter].
L: David Beckham?
J: Yeah, and I�d never met him. Uh� I�ve met him now, he�s a very nice chap, but we, we� we aren�t dating [audience laughs].
L: Well I just like the fact that you�re dating� [Jude laughs]. You�re not even like having an affair, you�re �dating�, like you�re going out to dinner, and you know, take you to a movie�
J: [still smiling] We�re just getting to know each other, yeah [laughs], it�s true.
L: Is that English press, or�?
J: Oh, English, yeah� yeah yeah, that�s English.
L: Now, your hair is different now. Your hair�s different�one time you came here, you had shaved it, you were bald.
J: Yeah.
