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!

As we know, Ryan Gosling is an actor. However, in Fall Guy, he plays a stuntman. And he has been hamming it up for the press as he promotes the movie which comes out on Friday.
Yesterday, when he was on Jimmy Kimmel Live, he made a two-minute entrance. But not just any entrance; he fought several men to get from the green room to the stage. And it is in the top 10 of all talk show entrances!
Once he caught his breath, he revealed that Burt Reynolds had a crush on Gosling’s mom when they filmed Frankenstein and Me.
As impressive as the first two minutes were, the best part came at the end. That is because Gosling introduced the real stuntmen from the film. Because of that, it shows he is a good guy who is willing to share the spotlight. How many other actors would do that?
Carol Burnett turns 91 tomorrow, and Jimmy Kimmel got her the perfect present.
Back in March, Miss Burnett was talking to Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelo, and they asked her if she still wanted to do George Clooney. She told them she is over him and is all about Bradley Cooper.
Well, as soon as Jimmy Kimmel Live’s staff heard that, they called Cooper to tell him that. Then they asked him to record a message for the Queen of Comedy, and he said yes!
So, yesterday, when she was on the show, they played that message for her. Cooper told her that he had been a fan forever and that he would love to work with her.
Someone make that happen and make it happen quickly because Bradley isn’t getting any younger.
Hey, Clooney and Robert Redford, this is how you do it! Don’t just ignore the legendary ladies because neither of you men are that legendary.
For ten years, Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon have been head-to-head at 11:35p with their talk shows on two different coasts.
However, tonight at 10p, they will battle it out on the same set on NBC’s Password.
Which late night host will be the winner? You will have to tune in to find out!
But I will tell you it is a funny episode hosted by Keke Palmer with one ultimate winner. But there is no declaration of who it is.
Can you guess which Jimmy is better at the game?
And since you are going to watch NBC at 10, you should also watch it at 8:30p. Extended Family’s season finale with Jon Cryer, Abigail Spencer, and Donald Faison which delivers a heartfelt episode that prepares couples for marriage. That is if Jim (Cryer) doesn’t break up Julia (Spencer) and Trey’s (Faison) engagement. But then again, it is their fault for asking him to what they asked him to do.
