Kimmel, Trumps Clash Over Late-Night Jokes

0:00It's April 27. From Hollywood to your headphones, this is Entertainment and celebrity news today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Jimmy Kimmel is catching heat for jokes he dropped on his late-night show about the White House Correspondent's Association dinner. Just days before a gunman tried to crash that event by firing shots at security, Kimmel roasted the dinner like he was the host, taking shots at. President Trump and Melania Trump. He explained he was channeling what a real comedian might say, if Trump wasn't afraid of laughs, then hit with lines like assuring Trump his bruised. Ego would make his hands look less gross and calling Melania beautiful with a glow like an expectant widow. Omega supporters blew up over it, especially that Melania line, seeing it as too far right before the shooting scare. First lady Melania Trump jumped on X Monday morning, slamming Kimmel as a coward hiding behind ABC and demanding the network fire him for his. A Trocha's behavior. She said ABC keeps enabling him at the expense of their community and enough is enough.

1:04So far, neither Kimmel nor ABC's parent company Disney has hit back publicly. This back and forth shows how comedy and politics keep clashing hard, leaving everyone picking sides in the culture war spotlight.
