Late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel has a dedicated and loyal fan base, and the latest episode proved just that. Kimmel and his team took a trip to Brooklyn to shoot a few episodes, and while the crew was setting up the stage, Kimmel was surprised by a heartfelt message from one of his biggest fans.
Following a week-long suspension, Jimmy Kimmel Live! Returned on September 23 and has been winning over the audiences once again.
Jimmy Kimmel Meets 90-Year-Old Indian Fan
Jimmy Kimmel was seen interacting with his fans in the audience and called a crew member to give the microphone to one of the fans, a local. An elderly woman got up who was interestingly of Indian descent. When Jimmy politely asked about her age, she jokingly stated, “I am 28 years old,” causing the rest of the studio to burst into laughter. Later, Kimmel confirmed that she was in fact 90 years old.
The woman was then seen appreciating the show, saying, “I am not 90 years old; I am in the prime of my life, and I love you. I have been watching you for the last 16 years, and I love what you do, and I love you very much. I appreciate what you’re doing, and we need you back; we need you.”
Kimmel expressed his love for the elderly fan and joked with her about only watching the last 16 seasons, when the show has been airing for 22 seasons. At the end, Kimmel got down from the stage and took a picture with the woman. She greeted him with folded hands and lovingly kissed him on the cheek.
Why Did Jimmy Kimmel Live! Get Cancelled?
Jimmy Kimmel has been in the headlines for months following his monologue commentary about President Donald Trump and his supporters’ reaction to the assassination of conservative activist and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
The late-night host faced severe criticism from conservatives and dealt with public pressure from Trump administration officials, causing the network to suspend the show. The suspension sparked major debate about the erosion of freedom of speech in the country, prompting Disney and ABC to resume production of Jimmy Kimmel Live!
