'I remember one time I was on your show and I was the second guest after Trump,' Maron recalled of his 1997 appearance on 'Late Night With Conan O'Brien.'

'I remember saying to him, 'So, you're a billionaire. How much money do you carry on you at any one time?' And he went, 'I don't know. I don't know.' [I said] 'Come on. How much money do you have in your pocket right now?'' 'I reached over into his blazer pocket and felt something and he put his hand over my hand really quickly like, 'Don't pull that out,'' O'Brien continued. 'We had a quick tug of war and I pulled it out and it was a condom and he said, 'Safe sex everybody.'' Watch O'Brien's interview with Maron below: According to O'Brien, Trump was not happy about the interaction. 'It was a real moment,' the longtime late night host confirmed. 'And he was mad. He was like, 'I'm not f—king coming on this show again. Goddamn!' He told my producer, 'You don't reach into a guy's pocket,' and stuff like that. But then, you know, literally cut to three months later, 'Ladies and gentlemen: Donald Trump!'' For his part, Maron not only remembered the interview but also the joke he made afterward. 'I remember I came out and I said, 'Why is Donald Trump carrying his own condoms? Don't prostitutes usually have them with them?'' the 'Stick' star recounted. 'Then I said, 'I'll probably end up dead in the East River.'' In response, O'Brien joked, 'Still could actually.' 'Yeah, I brought it back up and [Trump will] be like, 'Oh, yeah. I remember that,'' Maron agreed. Laughing, O'Brien asked, 'Why are we rekindling this now? We'll be shot by snipers.'

Jennifer Love Hewitt on Horror Comeback: ‘I'm There for the Moms'
With the legacy sequel 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' (same title, different movie) less than a month away from release, franchise stalwart Jennifer Love Hewitt sat down with Extra to discuss her return to the series — a return that she says she never expected. 'When I heard it was happening, I think my honest reaction was, 'Oh my gosh. That's great for them.' I never pictured them even asking me to do it,' Hewitt said. For the '9-1-1' star, her reprisal of Julie James serves as a bridge between the generation that embraced the first movie and younger audiences. More from IndieWire Seth Rogen Auditioned for Controversial 'Gigli' Role: 'I Saw Myself at the Oscars' If I Got It, but the Tape Would 'End My Career' Today Join Insider's Venice, a Once in a Lifetime Trip to the World's Oldest Film Festival 'I have confidence that the moms who are buying those tickets for their daughters to see the movie are there because they remember who Julie was, and they're where I am now, and we carry that with pride,' Hewitt explained. 'And so… their kids will love all the young people in the movie and I'm there for the moms.' The original film, based on the classic teen novel by Lois Duncan (who had her own fascinating backstory), found a group of teenagers pursued by a hooded killer with a hook the summer after they struck a man with a car then coveted it up. Hewitt is being careful not to divulge details about the new 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' leaving it at: 'I could tell you it's called 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' there's a… killer in it, and a hook and Julie James. That's what I could say.' Hewitt credits the reboot's existence to one of the original horror movie 'Final Girls.' '[I'm] so psyched for Neve [Campbell] and… all the people in these franchises who are… coming back and doing these things. It's really cool. I mean, Jamie Lee Curtis… paved the way for all of us to be able to do 119 of these and continue doing them into our 60s and still be badasses,' Hewitt said. '[Curtis] deserves all the credit. Like, it's so cool, and the rest of us just get to follow.' 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' hits theaters on July 18.
