Jimmy Kimmel has become a more significant figure in Hollywood, joyfully ridiculing Netflix at Disney’s upfront presentations and using his position to raise awareness about the country’s gun murder epidemic. Even at the pinnacle of his career, the late-night comic considers taking a break from it all.
Jimmy Kimmel Announced That He Would Be Leaving His Late-Night Show “Jimmy Kimmel Live”
Former Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg, Jennifer Lawrence, and Channing Tatum have all been guests on Kimmel’s show in the past.
Actor Matt Damon made a special appearance during Kimmel’s announcement on Thursday, marking the latest edition in the faux rivalry between Kimmel and Damon, which has lasted more than a decade.
“I’ve been back here for three months waiting to go on,” Damon said as he dressed up in a robe and mask and told Kimmel that he’s been sleeping at Kimmel’s studio during the outbreak.
Later, the comedian continued to mock Kimmel for owning a copy of Tori Spelling’s Storytelling book. Before Kimmel argued that it’s a “wonderful book,” Damon remarked, “I read it three times.” On Variety’s Awards Circuit Podcast, Kimmel remarked, “I wish I knew what I was going to do.” “There are times when I think to myself, ‘I can’t do this anymore.’ And there are times when I wonder, “What am I going to do with my life if I don’t do this anymore?”
It’s a complex situation. There are also practical issues, as well as considerations for family and friends, as well as coworkers.”
This isn’t the first time the comedian has thought about abandoning his ABC program. For years, Jimmy Kimmel has been upfront about his conflicting views regarding retiring, although insisting that he has yet to make a choice about his future. Unbeknownst to many, a school shooting happened in Uvalde (Texas) on May 18, 2022, in which 19 children and two adults were slain. Jimmy was interviewed on a podcast called Variety’s Awards Circuit.
“It’s quite comparable to what everyone else thinks,” the pitch Perfect 2 star stated. Maybe this will get through to someone. Perhaps some Republican senators and members of Congress will remark, “This is insane.” This can’t go on like this, and it isn’t the case. It’s a bit of a shock. It occurs once more. It occurs once more.
It’s a story about two Jimmys. On the podcast, Kimmel also revealed specifics of the prank he played on Jimmy Fallon. Jimmy Fallon, host of “The Tonight Show,” changed studios with Jimmy Kimmel. This concept was most likely introduced four to five years ago. For whatever reason, it didn’t work out. The key reasons were COVID and other important factors.
“This year, I was like, this year, we have to make it happen since April fool’s Day is going to be on the weekend next year,” he added. We were successful. Despite the fact that so many individuals were aware of it, it was astonishing that it was not made public, and it’s a bit of a shock that it didn’t.
