I approve this message !!!
Congrats!!! ❤
Jimmy's talk show isn't number one in late night TV. In fact, the jimmy kimmell show has been beaten pretty soundly the past few years by Greg Gutfeld. Look at who the "critics" are of the Critics Choice awards. Libbys libbys libbys on the label label label lol.
Kimmel, next 🎁 will be from Democrat 😢 they love your support!!!!
Hey Jimmy remember the time you did black face or cried on stage you fraud😂
more like 'raging leftwing lunatic award'
If kimmmel won… must not be much of a prize…lol another pathetic attempt of Hollywood to prop up their mouthpieces…😅 Not fooling anyone!
POS
Jennifer 😂😂😂 love this guy
This guy is a total loser. We all know he didn't get the award because of his talent.
Wow he really told his Pitiful 240.000 Soft fan base 😅
Nice fake win Jennifer Kimmel
Hack fraud.
What a useless piece of skin you are Kimmel.
What a crock! His ratings are in the toilet, and this was rigged by liberal Hollywood.
How much credibility can the award have, when Gutfeld is consistently beating this clown in ratings? What a joke, as usual, libs only great in their own minds!
For Kimmel: 🖕😎
While your honorable President DJT is playing games with a small country – “STRONG WITH THE WEAK, WEAK WITH THE STRONG.”
Don't you think we're no longer talking about you, the American people, and your concerns?
** Inflation >3% despite the rigged figures.
**Deteriorating job prospects (hold onto your jobs, things are about to get tough).
**Increasing energy bills.
**Industry at a standstill, how many car factories are shut down?
**Impressive stockpile of unsold cars, inventory > 250 days.
**Empty airports…
And above all, during this time, we're no longer talking about the Epstein case, the non-disclosure of files, and the implementation of your honorable DJT.
TDS is real 😂
Trump doesn't like all those comedians and says he never watches any of them because, in his opinion, they're not talented.
But coincidentally, he's seen all the shows and knows exactly what was said (about him?)
Donald Jennifer Trump! 🍊💤🤣
in the words of Ricky Gervais take your little award and f off!
