Jimmy Kimmel may be nearing his last laugh.
In fact, the Jimmy Kimmel Live! host revealed he’s actually ready been thinking about ending his late-night talk show for years now.
“Six years ago,” Kimmel told Vulture in an interview published June 1, “I told them I thought I was done when [Joe] Biden was president.”
The 58-year-old admitted he feels increasingly disillusioned about his late-night future in the wake of CBS’ cancellation of The Late Show hosted by Stephen Colbert (Colbert said his final “goodnight” to viewers on May 21).
“I feel a little bit defeated by it,” he lamented. “In a lot of ways, I feel like I’m looking at my own future.”
Of course, Kimmel is no stranger to controversy. His show was temporarily suspended last September over comments made about Charlie Kirk’s murder.
Reflecting on the period of uncertainty, he shared, “One of the things we talked about when I first got suspended was that I can’t do this show if I’m going to be micromanaged.”
