See how our late night host does as he FINALLY accepts the DWTS challenge, as well as a funny clip of our funny man!
Jimmy Kimmel has been the host of Jimmy Kimmel Live! for the past 10 years. In recent years, Kimmel has really gotten a lot of attention, earning numerous Emmy nominations for his late night show, as well as his role as host. Below is a very funny 2012 clip of Kimmel's first installment of a compilation of celebrities reading 'mean tweets' about themselves.
Funny, huh? Anyways, in rehearsals with Witney, who recently reached the semi-finals with The Voice contestant Josiah Hawley in just her first season, Kimmel is being highly sarcastic and completely hilarious! He tells the DWTSGame that he finally accepted the offer to do the game because he had had enough of the constant hounding to do it! And he also enjoys that he will be up against a lot of the celebrities he has interviewed on his talk show (he listed Phil McGraw as one of his favorites). Witney is proud of Jimmy, telling fans to expect the unexpected from him!
"Jimmy may have a reputation as a funny middle-aged talk show host, but in rehearsals, I think he is giving dancers like Derek Hough a run for their money. He has a hidden talent for dancing! Frustrates me that he kept refusing to do it! Haha. I cannot wait until our first dance!"
