Rob Lowe Did a Very Bad Job of Convincing Jimmy Kimmel He Wasn't Behind That Job Listing

Rob Lowe went on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Wednesday night to promote whatever that show he’s currently on is, and the conversation eventually turned to that very funny job listing TMZ published earlier this week. Remember? It said his assistants should “never assume anything,” have a massage or Jacuzzi ready if needed, and be able to lift 25 pounds. While Lowe admits that he is looking for an assistant, he denied the listing was his.

“By the way, I haven’t seen this, but I’ve been hearing about it,” Lowe tells Kimmel. (Sure you haven’t.) He gives an emphatic, “Yeah!” after hearing the one about needing coffee, and once Kimmel finishes reading every ridiculous bullet point, adds, “It sounds pretty good, I’ve gotta be honest. I’m kind of liking the specifics that they’re asking for.”

“So you didn’t ask to be massaged or Jacuzzi,” Kimmel asks.

“There was no massage on there,” Lowe shouts back, as though more familiar with the listing than he originally let on. This is what they call a “tell” in poker. (Or at least that’s what I learned in Maverick.)

Kimmel returns to the list. “What did I just say? ‘If the client wants a Jacuzzi or a massage ordered for his arrival.’”

“Well it doesn’t say you’ve gotta massage me,” Lowe responds defensively. “Words matter.”

They sure do.
