Jimmy Kimmel Imagines the Phone Sex Between Trump and Putin: ‘Vat Are You Wearing?’ | Video
Jimmy Kimmel leaped to an obvious conclusion during his monologue on Tuesday about the reveal that Donald Trump has maintained secret communications with Vladimir Putin: That they’re sexting. The joke came in the context of a new book by Bob Woodward, which reveals a longstanding secret relationship defined by cronyism and some honestly shocking corruption — including how during the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic, when Trump sent U.S.-made COVID-19 testing devices to Putin as a gift at a time when there was a shortage. “There’s another new tell-all book on the way from legendary journalist Bob Woodward. Trump as…

Jimmy Kimmel Calls Elon Musk’s Trump Rally Appearance ‘Two Devils Making a Deal With Each Other’ | Video
Count Jimmy Kimmel among the many people casting sidelong glances at Elon Musk’s weird appearance at a Trump Rally over the weekend. After dismissing the pair of newfound political allies as “Twitterdee and Twitterdum,” he declared that seeing them together was a rare glimpse of ” two devils making a deal with each other.” “Gordon Scamsey,” Kimmel said, referring to Trump, “was joined on stage in Pennsylvania by none other than Elon Musk. And say what you like about Elon, the man is absolutely dripping with charisma.” At that, Kimmel ran a clip demonstrating the exact opposite when Elon Musk…

Chris Hayes Worries Trump and GOP’s ‘Brazen,’ ‘Ludicrous Lies’ Will ‘Get People Hurt Again’
MSNBC’s Chris Hayes took a lengthy look at just a sample of the “outright, brazen, dangerous, ludicrous lies” told by Donald Trump and myriad other Republicans, some of which are causing actual problems for people represented by Republicans.

Jimmy Kimmel Argues ‘All You Need to Know’ Is Kamal Harris Isn’t Trump: ‘How Is This Election Close?’
Jimmy Kimmel was confused Thursday during his “Jimmy Kimmel Live” monologue about the fact that the election, according to polls, is as close as it is. In his opinion, the choice isn’t difficult at all. “We have two major candidates for president. One wants to take away your healthcare, already took away reproductive rights, was found guilty of 34 felonies, with more to come, was impeached twice, and openly tried to overturn the election,” the ABC host said, referring, obviously, to Donald Trump. “The other candidate isn’t the first candidate,” he added. “And that’s kind of all you need to…

‘The Circle’ Season 7 Winner Revealed: Who Took Home the $100,000 Prize?
“The Circle” Season 7’s top contestants delivered their final votes in the Netflix competition show’s season finale Wednesday. It was an action-packed season, with the game’s new “disruptor mode” causing chaos — and finalist Madelyn putting herself in the record books as one of the series’ biggest villains yet. She left her competition stunned when they discovered how frequently she fully fabricated lies to take out other players and protect herself. But while she made it to the top five — alongside “Gianna,” Kevin, “Rachel” and “Tierra” — she failed to take home the top prize. The winners: twin brother…

‘The Hills of California’ Broadway Review: Jez Butterworth Delivers Another Modern Classic
Maybe it is the near-vertical two flights of stairs. Maybe it is the mother whom none of us would want to call our own. At first viewing of “The Hills of California” in London this year, I thought Jez Butterworth had written the British “August: Osage County,” Tracy Letts’ Pulitzer Prize-winning play from 2008. Having now seen “The Hills of California” on Broadway, where it opened Sunday at the Broadhurst Theatre, I realize Butterworth has written something much more significant and moving. In crossing the Atlantic Ocean, he also cut a plot detail from the third act — and it’s…

The “SNL” Season 50 premiere was predictably star-studded with a cold open that revealed Dana Carvey as Joe Biden, Jim Gaffigan as Tim Walz and Andy Samberg as Doug Emhoff alongside Maya Rudolph’s previously announced return as Vice President Kamala Harris. But these were no mere one-off cameos — Carvey, Gaffigan and Samberg are set to play these roles for the duration of Season 50, TheWrap has learned. Carvey takes over the Biden role from Mikey Day, who played the President last season. Jim Carrey famously played Biden during the 2020 election, but stepped out of the role after Biden…
