Watch Jimmy Kimmel’s Take on the Oscars Best Picture Gaffe
It turns out he got paid $15,000. Previous year when the Oscars seemed racist. For hosting his own show “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”. However, there was another clear highlight of the Oscars this year, Jimmy Kimmel’s dig at President Donald Trump at every opportunity available. What do you think about the Kimmel and Damon feud? “I consider this their fault”.
Justin Timberlake got the crowd on its feet Sunday night at the Oscars – so when Jimmy Kimmel came out they were loose and ready.
“Now Matt, I have known Matt for a long time now”. People have been telling me I need to say something to unite us.
Here are some of the late night host’s politically minded jokes that you may have missed. Everyone was so shocked, there was no anger, it was more like: “‘Oh my God, this is insane, ‘” the insider recalls to Us Weekly, adding that the snafu was obviously not planned or part of the planned script, which was suppose to end with Kimmel roasting his faux-nemesis Damon once more.
The phrase “apologies to Matt Damon, we’ve run out of time” has become a meme, repeated daily on the show, and Damon gamely plays along with mock anger. “There’s only one Braveheart in this room, and he’s not gonna unite us either”.
Kimmel also appeared to tweet another message to Trump with the #MerylsaysHi hashtag, in reference to Meryl Streep’s anti-Trump speech during the Golden Globes.
“And that movie, The Great Wall, went on to lose $80 million dollars”, Kimmel continued.
Paying tribute to the team behind La La Land, he said: “We have been on the road with these guys and it was so gracious and so generous of them”. To completely embarrass the woman who’s truly had it all and won it all, Jimmy rallied everyone to honor someone who has “stood the test of time for her many uninspiring and overrated performances”. So you just kind of figure, well, the host will go onstage and clear this up.
To rub it in, Kimmel then asked if Streep’s dress was designed by Ivanka Trump.
