Jimmy Kimmel is going fishing for the summer, but Jimmy Kimmel Live is not. So today ABC announced who will be filling in for him while he is on vacation.
Martin Short will start things off on Monday. He will be talking to Steve Martin, Selena Gomez, Melissa McCarthy, Sienna Miller, and Jelly Roll, and listening to Beck, Imagine Dragons, Jelly Roll, Beck, and The Warning.
In the following weeks, we see Anthony Anderson, Kathryn Hahn, Kumail Nanjiani, Lamorne Morris, Jeff Goldblum, RuPaul, and Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman sitting in his chair. I am assuming the last two will be hosting the week Deadpool and Wolverine come out to promote their film!
Who are you looking forward to watching? When it comes to me, I will give you a hint: ketchup and mustard.
Dakota Johnson was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday to talk about her movie Daddio, and she almost got the host to scream, “Daddio!”
The actress was able to get through her first segment without a problem. However, when they returned from commercial break, the strap on her black dress broke and she had to hold up the top of her gown so she didn’t wind exposing her left breast on television.
By some miracle, she got through it. Much to the disappointment of the men up watching.
And talking about men being up, she shared a story to Kimmel about the unique part they had to cast for the film and how they had to cast it.
There is a scene in the feature that calls for a dick pic. However, they could not use stock footage because well, you get it. They could not use a screen grab because what would happen if the man whose penis that was saw it being used without his permission.
What to do? The props master reached out to 15 of her male friends, who sent in photos of just their dicks. Then Dakota, her producing partner, and the director looked at the pictures thoroughly and narrowed it down to two. Eventually, they found their star.
Even though he was ready for his closeup, his identity remains a mystery! So even he doesn’t know he was the lucky stiff.
Talking about dicks. Why didn’t Kimmel take off his jacket and give it to her to put on? She looked so embarrassed trying to get through the interview with the broken strap. It probably would’ve been easier for her if she was able to cover up with his jacket.
If you thought that Trump’s statement about how a boat battery could cause the water to electrify, thus electrifying him if he fell overboard, was the stupidest thing you ever heard, then listen to the Jimmy Kimmel Live mashup of him singing Naby Shark from different speeches.
It is so dumb that it will make you laugh out loud. And we need more of that these days.
Last week,* Jimmy Kimmel was on Late Night, and Seth Meyers had some questions for his fellow late night host because that is what you do on a talk show.
Anyways, Meyers wanted to know if there is anything that Kimmel has noticed over his 21 years of hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live.
At first, the ABC host was like no. But then he did remember something. “One of the things as a talk show host that you get to experience that the home viewers do not get to experience is the smell of the guests,” Kimmel said. “And I’ve found that the worst-smelling guests are the best-looking guys.”
He then elaborated that some of these men who have been People’s Sexiest Man Alive have huge BO, and he is not talking about their box office numbers.
Kimmel and Meyers’ theory is that because they look so fuckable, they are trying to find ways not to be fuckable.
Neither host mentioned any names, so who do you think Kimmel is talking about? I am thinking Brad Pitt and Matthew McConaughey are at least two of the men they are talking about, but I am sure I missed a few.
But it wasn’t only about the male celebrities who stink in a bad way; it was also about the ones who smelled good. Kimmel said that the “best-smelling guests are the old guys,” like the late Don Rickles and Regis Philbin. Their scent is of Aqua Velva from the Cococabana days that Barry Manilow sang about.
I can see what he is talking about because the best-smelling male celebrity I ever got a whiff of was Wayne Newton. I smelled like him for hours after we met, and that was a good thing.
*I know this interview is old, but I don’t have the attention span to watch 15-minute interviews. So I didn’t see this on LNSM posted it on TikTok yesterday. Therefore, blame his social media people and not me for being late to the game!
