After three days, Jimmy Kimmel rose up to the occasion, and he understood the assignment.
A week ago, Jimmy Kimmel Live was “preempted indefinitely” due to what is easily assumed to be pressure from an orange, thin-skinned man with a micro-stem.
His suspension was felt across the country as people debated what free speech and the First Amendment are, which some still don’t understand. But that is a whole other debate. And right now, America has a debating problem because people only want to hear their side and refuse to come to a middle ground.
However, yesterday, both sides went to YouTube after 11:35p EDT to hear what Kimmel said on his first night back from suspension. I would say they tuned into ABC, but Nexstar and Sinclair reportedly still need something from the FCC, so they are still not airing the late night talk show.
That is sad because their viewers missed out on a poignant monologue that was heartfelt at times, humorous at others, self-reflecting, honest, and uniting at others.
Plus, they didn’t get to see Robert De Niro do what that FCC wannabe tough guy wishes he could do. Only New Yorkers (and some people from Jersey) can threaten people without people knowing they are being threatened. He is from DC. He only knows how to threaten other politicians, and even they are like, “Girl, please.”
The other night on Late Night, Seth Meyers explained perfectly why donald trump is the butt of so many jokes. It is not because he is an ass, which he is. It is because, well, listen to what Seth (who I say is the best late night host currently on TV) has to say, and it will all make sense. So the only person hurting micro-stem is micro-stem, just like the only person touching his micro-stem is himself, because we know Melania ain’t Toad the Red Mushroom (thank you, Stormy Daniels, for the image) touching with an inch pole.
Catherine Mary Stewart shared a photo of herself wearing just a white frilly shirt, and she is totally up for mischief. Her legs are so sexy that they could bring Bernie back from the dead. Because of that, I cannot believe the Last Starfighter star is 66.
She looks so fabulous. I would say better than she did in Night of the Comet, but that would be incorrect. She had such an iconic look in the film that teen girls wanted to copy her style. And now those teens still want to look like her.
If you get a chance, you should watch her movie, Scenes from the Goldmine, with Cameron Dye, with whom she also worked in Starfighter. It is a quintessential ’80s film that should have gotten more recognition.
Before Corey Feldman spent Christmas with Gremlins, he spent it giving Santa Claus a McDonald’s gift certificate. How awwwwdorable was the 3-year-old in that 1974 commercial?
While most celebrities got into the alcohol business, Ben Stiller is doing something different from those other actors.
The actor is selling a healthy soda that contains no “fake stuff” and only has “30 calories”. Stiller’s Natural Soda comes in three flavors: Shirley Temple, Root Beer, and Lemon/Lime.
Zoolander says, “Can Stiller’s Root Beer render you more desirable to the people you’d most like to impress – whether in a recreational, occupational or sexual capacity? That is not a promise we are able to make at this time.”
And at this time, it is only available in the NYC area (including my hometown, Riverdale) and on Amazon.
Since I love a good Shirley Temple, I can’t wait to try a can! Luckily, my friend is going to Manhattan for the weekend, so I am going to make him buy me one to try. I just hope that it doesn’t explode in his luggage. Well, for him, I hope it doesn’t happen. For me, I find the concept hilarious, that is, until I get the bill to get everything he brought with him cleaned.
