Is Jimmy Kimmel taking a break for other reasons or is it to avoid taking about his blackface skits from the past?

Jimmy Kimmel used 'N-word' in imitation Snoop song in 1996, impersonated comic George Wallace in 2013: audio

EXCLUSIVE: Jimmy Kimmel, who urged actor Tom Arnold to release an alleged "N-word" tape of President Trump in 2018, admitted years ago that he imitated rapper Snoop Dogg's voice for a track in a 1996 Christmas album -- an original song in which Kimmel used the "N-word" several times.

It seems there's more.

Kimmel's been coming apart at the seams for quite some time now, completely unhinged.

It's not surprising he's taking an extended break. It's likely on doctor's orders.

He is a shining example of a cautionary tale to those who suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Kudos to Megan Fox for defending Bay and Kimmel over unfounded rumours of sexual misconduct.

He finally apologized for his blackface skits

Jimmy Kimmel is known as one of the top liberal TV hosts. This is why lefty Media, BLM are going easy on him.

Holy shit! I just saw a video of Kimmel making fun of fat people. He's dead meat now. The fat lobby will get him.

I think he's realized no one thinks he's funny.

He was very upfront apologizing about the blackface incident.

The thing I like the most about the Kimmel situation(and other similar ones) is the fact that an hypocrite is getting his just desserts. If he was a host like Johnny or even Leno, not exactly righties, but classy chaps attempting to play to the whole of America, I would probably defend him. But, the networks destroyed the late night landscape by turning their shows into MSNBC. I genuinely mourned the passing of Carson and Leno and the unhinging of Letterman by Bush. Fallon, Kimmel, Colbert got embroiled in politics to such an extreme that they've became a niche entertainment like Macher and Bee. Long way from the original design for the late night television comedy. Same goes for the SNL, incidentally. I hope that the woke crowd sinks Kimmel's ass, no one deserves it more.

Funny, in "real life", Carson was a legendary prick. Best described as a mean drunk.

I don't subscribe to the National Enquirer nor watch the celebrity entertainment shows- I don't give a shit about performers' private lives- as long as they're, more or less, within the law. I'm a simple man- monkey dance! Or juggle and make me laugh!
