I craved it. The actor stormed off set spewing a string of expletives, leaving viewers wondering if he was legitimately mad. Proof: each year, he famously sends out hilarious —and humiliating— holiday cards on behalf of his agent, James Dixon. Now you can put up with mine. Good luck in I happen to be set for life. By the time Kimmel got the offer to do Jimmy Kimmel Live! There were lines around the block to get into the studio, and guys would be out there drinking all day long.
Kimmel recalls the moment in which he knew it was over. Sharing shelf space is a collection of bobble heads and a Tickle Me Elmo doll with all of its fur plucked out.
Yes, really. After the suit, Sponge Bob and Chewbacca stuck around, joining Kimmel and the crew on the roof of his theater. During a lull in shooting, Kimmel started interviewing the characters; minutes later, Chewbacca was handed the camera and began grilling Kimmel. Great, great. I just think he's worked it too hard. I think he turned comedy into factory work -- and it comes across.
It's just amazing how insecure he is. There are kids in high school, and this guy's a baseball player, this guy's on the wrestling team, this guy is really smart. I was the guy who watched David Letterman. I watched every night on a little black-and-white TV at my desk. I wanted to be an artist at that point, so I'd draw and watch the show all night. The people who root for Letterman are the smarter group. The people who like me? Also stupid.
I figure I cut into the dummies. A lot of silly and smart stuff. I thought, When this guy smoothes out, he's going to be real good. He never smoothed out. It's my biggest fear. Everybody says it's going to be great; everybody is positive. But in a world where Jay Leno beats David Letterman every night, you can't be sure of anything. You really can't. You know what the most dangerous neighborhood in the country is right now? The comments section on every webpage No sane person would ever say the kind of things that they write online to someone face-to-face.
If you did, you'd get killed. Kennedy had that very public feud with the cast of "Bye Bye Birdie" has there been such venom between Broadway and the White House. There were a lot of great nominees, but Harvey deserved it the most. Well, guess what? I think we were right. Two years into his game show success, Kimmel, in cooperation with longtime friends Adam Carolla and Daniel Kellison, established a production company under the name Jackhole Industries.
The trio began developing comedy shows through Jackhole, and pitching them to various networks. Billed as the "anti- Oprah ," the half-hour comedy show glorified testosterone and featured beer chugging, models bouncing on trampolines, and unabashed toilet humor.
Hitting new heights in puerile comedy, the show was a runaway success for the network and led to Kimmel's frequent appearances as a commentator on Fox NFL Sunday. With several hit shows under his belt, ABC showed an interest in Kimmel as a potential late night host in the early s. However, thousands of episodes later, Kimmel has earned the respect of A-list guests and beat out rival late-night talk shows in the ratings. Over the show's decade-long run, ABC has repeatedly extended Kimmel's contract due to his continued success as a host.
In , the network announced that it would move Jimmy Kimmel Live! In response, West released a tirade of tweets about Kimmel. Kimmel also announced that he spoke to West on the phone afterwards, with West saying that Kimmel's life would be much better if he apologized.
Kimmel later brought the rapper on his late-night talk show, where the two resolved their very public Twitter war. Kimmel hasn't shied away from using his platform to express disdain for certain public figures, including former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore, who saw allegations of sexual misconduct surface when he was running for the U.
Senate in When Moore suggested on Twitter that they could settle their differences "man to man," Kimmel told his audience that he was more than happy to accept that challenge. Like his late-night talk show rivals, Kimmel took to hosting a stripped-down version of his show from home during the coronavirus outbreak in , announcing that each quarantine edition would raise money for a different organization.
Kimmel hosted the Primetime Emmy Awards in , and to positive reviews. He also hosted the Academy Awards in and returned to host the 90th edition of the Oscars the following March. In April , Kimmel began hosting a revival of the game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire with celebrity contestants. Kimmel married his college sweetheart Gina Maddy in , and they have a son, Kevin, and daughter, Katherine.
As Kimmel's show and career thrived, his marriage began to dissolve.
