Jimmy Kimmel’s long-running late-night career has been shaken by scandal. The 57-year-old host was suspended from Jimmy Kimmel Live! after making comments about Charlie Kirk’s death. ABC confirmed the show will be off-air “for the foreseeable future” after 22 years.

Kimmel has faced criticism for years over his past. He wore blackface, used the N-word, and made sexist jokes. His early show, The Man Show, featured crude sketches with women and sexually charged stunts. “I look back at every show I’ve ever done and cringe,” Kimmel admitted in 2017.

He has also mocked former President Donald Trump, Melania Trump’s accent, and made off-color jokes to actress Megan Fox. Many viewers now question why he avoided cancelation for so long.

Fans and critics are divided. Some say he’s paying the price for past behavior, while others defend his comedy as satire. The future of Jimmy Kimmel Live! remains unclear, leaving Hollywood and viewers buzzing.
