Jimmy Kimmel Gets Emotional Addressing Los Angeles Fires
“I think I speak for all of us when I say it has been a sickening, shocking, awful experience, but it has also been, in a lot of ways, a beautiful experience because, once again, we see our fellow men and women coming together to support each other.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“If you’ve been to this neighborhood before — our neighborhood — you know that Hollywood Boulevard is crawling with people dressed like superheroes. We got Catwoman; we got a lot of Spider-Men. I mean, there are so many Spider-Men — Spider-Man after Spider-Man. And when the fires broke out here, those heroes did nothing. They did not help us at all. But then the real superheroes swooped in. The Aquamen, if you will.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“Tonight, I don’t want to get into all the vile and irresponsible and stupid things our alleged future president and his gaggle of scumbags chose to say during our darkest and most terrifying hour. The fact that they chose to attack our firefighters, who apparently aren’t white enough to be out there, risking their lives on our behalf is — it’s disgusting, but it’s not surprising. Instead, I want to focus on thanking those men and women, because that’s all we should be doing right now, and we should never stop thanking them.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
