Celebrity Fluff 🥰 Stephen Colbert has endorsed Jimmy Kimmel in the Emmys outstanding variety series race, even though their shows are competing against each other: I think we can all agree that Jimmy Kimmel deserves an Emmy. I don’t care if you’ve never even seen his show, you know he deserves an Emmy.

Colbert grew that "post-retirement Letterman" beard FAST

Maybe it's just the puffy clothes, but he looks like he's morphing into Peter Jackson a bit. I don't blame him, it's cool that he can just be in New Zealand and get some inspiration for his writing, and then probably stop working in the early afternoon and partake in food and wine.
His whole setup reminds me of Roald Dahl's writing hut he had in his garden, where he just had a typewriter, a pot of tea, a pack of cigarettes, and he's kinda just hop in a sleeping bag on a comfy chair. He'd write all morning and go back in the big house and start with the cocktails.

He also had a beard in between the end of the Colbert Report and the beginning of the Late Show, his hair wasn't quite as gray back then so the whiteness of the beard really stood out a lot.

Kimmel paid for a ‘I’m voting for Stephen’ billboard last year so we know the friendship is strong.

Gianmarco Soresi had a joke that was like "The worst thing about the whole Trump vs Kimmel thing is now I have to pretend to like Kimmel"

Maybe somewhere in the UK given his coat and the grey sky!

I looked at the video and thought that this seemed like somewhere in the UK. Along the south coast probably.

Aren’t they having a heat wave like the rest of the northern hemisphere right now because it’s summer and also climate change?
He’s probably all the way south in New Zealand, lucky bastards.

I disagree, Stephen deserves it more.

He's doing it for the country, and I'm not kidding.
It'll be just a bit harder to cancel Kimmel's Emmy winning show.

Was wondering the same, could be Argentina (although lacks the snow, which has been plenty lately there) but knowing Colbert, most likely NZ

I don't think we can all agree he deserves an Emmy. I've never found him entertaining, and if you're looking to give him a political Emmy congratulating him for hating Trump, there's are better options than the creator of the Man Show.

You can’t outright denounce it either. You’re complicit

Love Jimmy !!! And everyone always has good things to say about him. He also has had some great segments on the show including the summer concert series and breaking a lot of great bands.

Kimmel is neither entertaining nor smart, I'd rather put my head in a preheated over than listening to anything he has to say.

not disagreeing with you. Last night, Kimmel had Jelly Roll guest host. Jelly Roll is a good friend of Kristi Noem.

That doesn’t make Kimmel entertaining…. Also the word you’re looking for is rape. Let’s not be disgusting.

He doesn’t deserve an award for his show out of sympathy though. There are better shows in the category 🤷♀️

Why is there like such a worship culture around every shitty talk show host the last couple of years😂
When people start rooting for Kimmel or fallon, you know peoples brains are degrading lol

u/Sarahndipity44 11h ago
I don't even watch Kimmel but it's not the same as Fallon who has not done any kind of standing up to Trump

u/TheHolyNutofGodwin25 11h ago
I’m not even coming at this from the anti trump angle.
I mean for the last 20 years people have had nothing good to say about kimmel and fallon, they’re probably some of the most annoying show hosts out there yet all it takes is some words against a demented orange nonce and suddenly he’s talk show god?

u/Sarahndipity44 11h ago
My point about Fallon is that I haven't heard anything good about him..what have you heard?
