Los Angeles, Jan 31 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Jimmy Kimmel slammed all of Jay Leno claims, that he felt ‘sucker-punched’ when Jimmy Kimmel came on his show. “Excuse me if I look like I’ve been crying, it’s been an Oprah-whelming day for me,” Kimmel said. “It’s kind-of funny, you know, celebrities usually go on Oprah with these intense, serious interviews to get support from the public after they had sex with their father or married Bobby Brown or something. Jay Leno went on because they gave him the Tonight Show back. So please, keep him in your prayers.”
The tirade of abuses started after Jay Leno asked Jimmy Kimmel to appear on his segment ’10 Questions’. Then Jimmy Kimmel left no stone unturned to rub Jay Leno the wrong way about the way the Tonight Show former host Conan O’Brien was shoed out of the show, so as to bring back Jay Leno as the host of the Tonight Show.
In other ‘Jay Leno’ news the comic host is going to be a keynote speaker at the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in Washington. The White House Correspondents’ Association President said that black-tie dinner, which also gets footage on the national TV, would be held this year on the 1st of May.
