Jimmy Kimmel jokes about Trump outcry at Disney upfront

Jimmy Kimmel fired off jokes at Disney's upfront event on Tuesday, poking fun at recent White House drama while advertisers watched. He quipped about being surprised to see the crowd amid calls to cancel his show. The late-night host also took a playful swing at another reality TV scandal.

Kimmel told the room he felt just as shocked as they did to be there after all the Trump-related noise. He added that the only way to get axed from ABC was by throwing a chair at your Mormon boyfriend, nodding to Taylor Frankie Paul's Bachelorette mess that got pulled. Multiple attendees confirmed the zinger landed with knowing laughs.

The Federal Communications Commission has directed Disney's ABC to file early broadcast license renewals for its eight TV stations, following backlash over a joke by Jimmy Kimmel about first lady Melania Trump. The order comes amid criticism from President Donald Trump and Melania Trump, who linked the comedian's remark to a recent assassination attempt on the president. ABC maintains full compliance with regulations.

Jimmy Kimmel used his Monday night monologue on ABC to defend a joke in which he said first lady Melania Trump had “a glow like an expectant widow,” arguing it was a crack about the Trumps’ age difference rather than a call for violence. The remark drew condemnation from Melania Trump and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt as authorities investigated a shooting and attempted breach near the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner at Washington’s Hilton hotel over the weekend.
