According to Saldana, speaking to Jimmy Kimmel, Marco Saldana, made the choice himself. "Did you make him do that?" Jimmy Kimmel asked on Thursday night's Kimmel Live. "Oh my God," she said, "why does it mean a woman has to hold a gun, like, 'You're gonna be Saldana!'"

‘Full House’ may be coming back to screens, but it was apparently news to two of the original series’ biggest stars. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen claim that the first they had heard of the revival was John Stamos making the announcement on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ earlier this week.

Kanye West Jimmy Kimmel

Kanye West was reported to have skipped an appearance on Friday night’s edition of ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’, where the rapper was expected to take part in the show’s famous ‘Mean Tweets’ segment. But while some reported the ‘Only One’ rapper’s no-show as a simple case of Kanye being Kanye, it seems the real story is a lot more reasonable.

Kanye WestKanye was expected to appear on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' on Friday

After the rapper’s absence was heavily reported on, a rep for West told E! Online, "He was never confirmed to be on the show. We took extraordinary steps and worked directly with the show to try to make it happen.”

Snoop Dogg has joined Willie Nelson as weed-loving musicians who have smoked in the White House if his online show, ‘GGN: The Double G News Network’ is to be believed. Well, Nelson actually puffed marijuana on the roof of the White House during Jimmy Carter’s presidency, but you get the point.

According to Snoop, he lit up "In the bathroom, not in the White House, but in the bathroom.” As far as we’re concerned, if you take a dump in the White House, you’ve taken a dump in the White House.

Lena Headey Jimmy Kimmel Game Of Thrones Charles Dance Rory McCann Nikolaj Coster-Waldau

"You have such a way with words, I wonder if you'll be so clever when I have your tongue ripped from your throat," are not the sort of sentiments one would expect when tuning in to watch Jimmy Kimmel Live! Unless you're Lena Headey and happen to play one of the most evil female characters on television, Game Of Thrones' Cersei Lannister.

The 40-year-old British actress appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday (16th June) and channelled her character Cersei.

Famous Excuses Morrissey Has Used To Cancel Shows

Earlier this week, former Smiths frontman Morrissey came under fire from fans after cancelling the remaining dates of his North American tour. The 55-year-old left thousands of US fans disappointed after pulling the gigs due to a respitory infection.

"Homeless" Robert Pattinson's "Minions" May Know Where All His Belongings Are


Robert Pattinson Jimmy Kimmel

Robert Pattinson may be one of the world’s most famous actors, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that he’s living the lavish Hollywood lifestyle. While we’re 99.9% sure he was joking, when Robert Pattinson appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live, he told the host he was currently “homeless.”

Everything That's Wrong With The Snoop Dogg And Psy Collaboration "Hangover"


Snoop Dogg Psy Miley Cyrus Nelly Tim Mcgraw Jimmy Kimmel

In one of the oddest collaborations since Nelly gave country artist Tim Mcgraw a call and asked to bring his Louisiana drawl to the R&B track “Over And Over”, Snoop Dogg has teamed up with South Korean viral success Psy to unleash the track “Hangover” upon the world. It’s not the first time the G-funk master has produced a piece of work with an artist from disparate corners of the music world. He has previously teamed up with Miley Cyrus for the track “Ashtrays and Heartbreaks” during the rapper’s ill-conceived stint as adopting the Rastafarian lifestyle under the moniker of Snoop Lion.

Snoop Dogg at TAO nightclubSnoop Dogg and Psy's collaboration has been widely attacked by both of their respective fans.

Debuting in the US on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the video attained over 3.5 million views in 24 hours and currently boasts viewing figures of almost 25 million. But such figures are small fry for K-pop megastar Psy, who has become the first artist to break the 2 billion mark on Youtube. The video itself depicts Snoop and Psy trying various purported South Korean cures for the after effects of excessive inebriation, as well as their clips from their hedonistic exploits from the day before. As for the music itself, it contains all the tropes of Psy’s previous opus- blaring synthesizers and a skewed chorus hook designed to burrow into your brain and resolutely refuse to leave.

Is Seth Meyers The Right Man For This Year's Emmy Awards?


Seth Meyers Jimmy Fallon David Letterman Conan O'Brien Neil Patrick Harris Jimmy Kimmel

Seth Meyers has been announced as the host of the 2015 Emmy awards this August. This caps off a great year for Meyers, who recently went from head writer for SNL and host of the show’s recurring Weekend Update segment to hosting his own late night show. Meyers took over NBC’s Late Night from Jimmy Fallon, after Fallon moved on to Tonight in the place of Jay Leno. It was a bit like a game of musical chairs over at NBC, but the white male hosts all managed to come out on top.

Seth Meyers
Seth Meyers is having a very successful year.

The Television academy confirmed Meyers’ appointment on Thursday, in keeping with the tradition of picking the host from the pool at the network, broadcasting the Emmys – in this case, NBC. The network will air the event, arguably the biggest night in television, on Monday, August 25. This schedule means that the Emmys take place in the last week before the new fall television season begins each year. The Emmy ceremony is typically broadcast on a Sunday, but this year, being broadcast on NBC, the Emmys would interfere with the NFL's “Sunday Night Football,” and so the Emmys are being moved to the next available date.

Rob Ford, the mayor of Toronto, visited LA on Monday for an interview with late night television host Jimmy Kimmel on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Rob's brother Doug, who accompanied him to the interview, told The Daily Mail that Rob was "a little upset" after his ridiculing at the hands of Kimmel and the show, in which he was grilled about his alleged drug use, alcohol abuse and weight issues.

With a new competitor in The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel is pulling out all the stops.

Charlie Sheen Unleashes Some Bi-Winning, Tiger-Blooded Fury In Ashton Kutcher's Direction


Charlie Sheen Ashton Kutcher Jimmy Kimmel

Well, the Charlie Sheen/Ashton Kutcher story is just getting awkward at this point. It all started during Kutcher’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel, when the model-turned-actor addressed his predecessor on Two and a Half Men, asking Sheen to “shut the f**k up”. Apparently Kutcher had been receiving some not so pleasant messages from the Anger Management star.

Just because he's on a show called Anger Management, doesn't mean that Sheen actually practices it.

“Dude, shut the f--- up! Enough already," Kutcher told Kimmel on Wednesday's show. "It's three years later and you're still blowing me up on Twitter. Come on dude, really?”

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are planning the most lavish ceremony they can conjure for their impending nuptials. Aquaman and his hobbit fiancé are masters of grandeur and without a doubt, their wedding ceremony will be off the scale and the kind of wedding ceremony us mere peons could only dream of attending. What we can do though is go through all the gritty details that have emerged so far and try to image what the spectacle might be like.

The twosome had initially planned to rent out the grandiose Palace of Versailles, on the outskirts of the French capital, Paris, for their wedding. Hoping to star in the most important event to take place in the impressive French palace since October 1919 (in their mind), these plans have since been scuppered by the pair, as Kim revealed last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. Having been spotted perusing the grounds of the palace during a recent trip to Paris for Couture Week, which had been followed before by online rumours, the reality starlet said that she and Kanye will not be holding their wedding ceremony in the baroque Château de Versailles after all, as she said that she and her hubby were only at Versailles out of interest, having never visited the building before.

Kim Kardashian, in an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live (23rd January), discussed her sister Khloe's fertility issues. Kardashian explained how, owing to the state of her marriage to now ex-husband Lamar Odom, Khloe felt it was not the right time to have a child.

Kardashian, who appeared on the show wearing a pink Dior dress, cut to show a sliver of stomach, stated "For so long, everyone in our family was feeling really sad for Khloe, thinking that she wasn't getting pregnant and everyone around her was." However, despite the family encouraging Khloe to see fertility specialists, the 33-year-old was unwilling to become pregnant, a factor Kardashian attributes to her sister's belief that timing was not right. She described how Khloe "was not showing up to these doctors' appointments behind our back on purpose and doing everything on purpose," deliberately not to get pregnant. Kardashian added, by way of explanation, "She knew that it wasn't right. She knew that she wasn't ready."

Adam Levine was crowned the 'Sexiest Man Alive' by People Magazine this week, an honour that Levine himself thinks was duly deserved. Ok, he's probably not that big headed, but when he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday (20 Nov.) night, he was more than happy to play along with the joke and big himself up, and his sexiness.

"A lot of people trivialize this sort of thing. They say it's shallow and think it's just a media stunt used to sell magazines and perpetuate the image of Hollywood being based on looks.

Kimmel introduced his guest by focussing primarily on her comedy career, with a small reference to how "there's nothing awkward about her being here." However, Silverman immediately forced the conversation on to their seven year long relationship by presenting Kimmel with an unconventional guest gift: a box of his old things.

In the face of battery and grand theft charges, rapper Kanye West has made an attempt to put his attack on a paparazzo into context.

Press Intrusion? Wake Up Kanye West, You're Marrying Kim Kardashian


Kanye West Kim Kardashian Jimmy Kimmel

Kanye West's feud with Jimmy Kimmel came to a head on the host's ABC Live show on Wednesday (October 9, 2013), though it sort of fizzled out with a couple of indignant Kanye soundbytes.

We don't need to go through this again. Anticipation had built for the pair's meeting after Kimmel's now infamous mocking of Kanye's now infamous interview with Radio 1's Zane Lowe.

In the end, Kimmel admitted that he'd only watched a little of West's interview - in which he called himself a fashion designer above a musician and dubbed himself the biggest star on the planet - before filming the sketch. "I think some people read into it differently - that we were positioning you as a child, which was not the case," Kimmel explained in front of a blank staring Kanye.

Kanye West Worked It Out With Jimmy Kimmel And Put The Paparazzi On Blast


Kanye West Jimmy Kimmel

Kanye West and Jimmy Kimmel offered everyone a lesson in conflict resolution, when the rapper/fashion designer/tabloid headline generator accepted Kimmel’s invitation to an interview. Then the two sat down, apologized, saw each other’s point of view and reconciled. And that’s how it’s done, folks.

Kanye West, Jimmy Kimmel Live
Kanye West used his appearance to appeal for a return to common decency.

The full interview is available on JKL’s youtube channel, separated between six videos, but suffice it to say that a lot of below-the-surface issues came up during the interview. If you’re still not caught up on the celebrity feud du jour, the feud started after Kimmel spoofed a recent interview that West did with BBC Radio, or rather, the most outrageous bits. The talk show host had kids read out some of Kanye’s statement and, admittedly, the bit was pretty funny. Then West erupted into a Twitter rant against the talk show host and boom – brand new celebrity feud.

Kanye West Clears The Air With Jimmy Kimmel During 'Live' Appearance


Kanye West Jimmy Kimmel

Kanye West's interview with BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe sparked much conversation, and plenty more criticism of the rapper than he would have hoped for. Eager to poke fun of the self-appointed number one rock and roll star in the world, Jimmy Kimmel aired a seemingly harmless sketch in which Kanye's more outlandish comments were recreated by children, something that really didn't sit well with Kanye. Following a much-publicised online feud, the two were able to clear the air and explain themselves in an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, which aired on ABC last night; Wednesday, 9 October.
