It's April 29th. You're listening to Entertainment and celebrity news today, AI-powered entertainment coverage. A fake video claiming Jimmy Kimmel apologized for a controversial widow joke just when viral on social media. But it's all cooked up with an AI cloned. Boys, the clip popped up on a Facebook page called World News on April 27th, 2026, with a caption pushing it as Kimmel owning up to. Inappropriate remarks about the Trumps. Folks shared it wide, tying the joke to some real-world violence in Washington, making it seem my comedy-spark trouble, but Kimmel never said any. Of this, experts at lead stories ran the 31-second audio through the high-ed deep-fake voice detector and it clocked in at 93% confidence. It's synthetic, with the end-scoring a full 100% AI. Deep fakes like this are flooding feeds, blurring lines between real apologies and total fakes, so double-check before you hit share next time.
