Jeff Goldblum Reviews Impressions of Himself | Vanity Fair

all i feel like i'm doing now is a bad impersonation of myself hello my name is jeff jeff goldblum goldblum and i'm going to be reviewing jeff goldblum impressions name this object yes thank you that's a um uh what do you call it when you um when you when you punish criminals and uh days of yore it was um and you'd put them in the uh the square you know uh you mean in the stocks or a pillary yes exactly it's a freaking hammer i love david duchovny and that is very nice i guess i do use my hand that he was probably doing that um yes talking with my hands of course he's got my glass some kind of dark frame which i still sport in one way or another and then of course fun-freeing like a variation of fun fringe uh what do you call it when you um not being able to come up with exactly directly succinctly what you want to say but beating around the bush to try to find some thought your mind is as you're talking your mind is actively still you know chewing on something and it's less that you've got some rich inner mental life that but more that i i hardly know you know what i'm talking about let's go to jeff goldblum who appears to still be doing tai chi see what your answer was here he's doing some a non-verbal uh sort of dance move he will calls it a tai chi and so yes well observed well observed sometimes for no reason at all seemingly i can fall into i i myself have studied dance uh uh i'm a i'm a fan of the dance you know i can express myself non-verbally and uh with lush and incoherent movements uh disturbing i'm sure to many et cetera et cetera very good very very good appointed a surgical and an insightful uh uh uh you know um what am i trying to say uh um um i'm doing that i'm doing the oh impersonation hey yes yes ah okay scooby-doo oh there may be trouble ahead but while there's moonlight i'm booming school ah [Laughter] i've come upon him i know a hello and i know all about you because i've come upon these offerings on my instagram i i get them he's doing a more i think modern contemporary because he's not he's doing them right now of me and what i've developed into uh kind of a half musical and and dance sensual uh odyssey i think it's derived from conan's conan used to have a thing that he he used to do to me to my face on the show which was a lot of fun and it said yes yes um it's that you know sensual that to the tasting and the the savoring of every smell and taste and this thing that i learned from conan you know but he got that from bob hope and i think i only kind of tried to develop that little device in myself once i heard conan go wow and then i figured out how to do it you know you can do this is not this is a at the back of your throat i enjoy doing it it's fun to do of course he includes in that uh one of our songs from our last album the mildred sister orchestra there may be trouble ahead and i sure enough uh guilty is charged i'm singing up a storm i sing all the time and i add anything that reminds me of a lyric of a song i'll break into some song so he's right on the money there jeff is very intense in a good way ah yes well i i do believe yes yes really i would love to see that wow that's good i didn't know he had that uh up his sleeve as he says it's intense and he made those big eyes once when do you find yourself doing the bulgy eyes what makes you do that bulgy eyes well my mom had some prominent eyeballs i'll tell you you know i have a nice sized socket myself early on i did too much of it i i i myself there's one thing that i tried to eliminate from my behavioral palette color palette was the bulge yeah i didn't want to be a kookball and i saw maybe when i saw some other impressions of oh mr buggy i you know and then i played the bug you know i i i try not to do the bulgia but i don't pay attention myself so when something amazes me or causes me to be in wonder or ah i suppose i can grow wide as saucers in the in the uh area around there you know and now celebrities arguing with their spouses in the car yeah such an excellent point you're making but remember yeah if you will um i uh i took out the trash yes i did very good it started out justin i would say in the cerebral way a little bit cut off because even when when fighting with your spouse um uh you know he's making little debate points which is a little unattractive you know i can do do that i suppose but then we see that at the end of that impression he's full of a kind of um uh underlying joy like he's kind of kidding about the whole thing and getting a kick out of the whole thing even though he's doing some mental exercises too i say win the argument yeah then something is going on where he's really full of enjoyment which captures something something so bravo bravo i feel like a little bit of goldblum style has rubbed off on me what can i say i'm just a protege i'm just uh what am i yeah just you know uh just something just a student to me a student you're a great impersonator is that my is that uh what do you think what do you know uh oh my gosh um very good well he is a master artist and a master crafts person and a master impressionist it's a variation of what david duchovny did can't find the word there's a word i'm looking for but can't hmm what what is it making interstitial sounds to kind of uh keep the keep the uh keep himself going and then he's doing something how about this he's doing something that i haven't seen in any of the things and it wasn't certainly wasn't part of the fly it wasn't but it could have been and i think he's including something that captures the essence of a former body of work maybe subconsciously um what's mm-hmm yes there's a word i'm not not thinking of what is it no he's doing a little of that good good good dr hiddleston very good overall i can't believe how lucky lucky i am how did i get into this position where i get to see people and their impersonations what a wonderful thing i embrace them all into my basket of appreciation and and and goodwill
