Mayor Bloomberg isn’t sure what he wants to do after his term ends in 2013 – but a turn in front of the camera is one of the possibilities.
“I got it – Late Night With Michael Bloomberg,” he jokingly told late-night host Jimmy Fallon.
“You can’t take my job,” Fallon said.
Wednesday was Bloomberg’s second appearance on Fallon’s show. He also visited during the show’s first week in 2009.
Hizzoner discussed the enjoyment he derives from attending New York sporting events, including the Yankees, Mets and Giants. And he considers himself a bit of a good luck charm.
“I went to a Giants game, and they won the Super Bowl,” he said.
Fallon showed a series of photos of Bloomberg – on the “How to Succeed” set with Nick Jonas, a disco pose on “Mama Mia!” and a photograph of Bloomberg flanked on either side by “Jersey Shore” stars Snooki and The Situation.
“Three national treasures,” Fallon said.
“Not a lot else you can say about that,” Bloomberg said.
Another photograph showed Bloomberg giving Lady Gaga a kiss during this year’s New Years Eve celebration.
“I don’t think my girlfriend was happy about that,” the Mayor quipped.
Bloomberg also discussed his love of New York – and how he enjoys taking the subway to work. He doesn’t get hassled much.
“The only time someone yelled at me, they said, ‘Fix the Knicks,’” he said.
