Jimmy Kimmel expecting 2nd child with wife Molly McNearey
Congratulations to myself. I will present the Oscars and I slept with a woman.
“Safe” and “reliable” are the most apt words I can use, as that’s exactly what we can expect from him as host.

Vote: Who will be a better host – Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel or James Corden?
Jimmy Kimmel announced on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Monday that he and wife Molly McNearey are having another baby.
Subsequently, Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd, producers of the 89th Oscars ceremony, confirmed Kimmel’s selection. It is no wonder, then, that Jimmy Kimmel was quick to confirm the news yesterday that he will front next year’s ceremony.
Kimmel hosted the Primetime Emmy awards back in September, and the majority of viewers seemed to enjoy his performance.
In addition to hosting the Emmys and AMAs of years past, Kimmel has also hosted the ESPYs and the White House Correspondent’s Dinner. “So there’s a lot of exciting stuff going on”. Kimmel also has regularly piggy-backed on the Oscar broadcast, with ABC airing a Jimmy Kimmel Live: After the Oscars special immediately following the awards ceremony. “But I think if we had one word to describe how we want people to feel during the show, we want joy”.
The edition from a year ago was presented by comedian Chris Rock and reported disappointing numbers in the television audience sector.
