  J Kimmel is an ignorant MF and I ONLY went to his show to see the greatest band ever, Def Leppard! He needs to go fuck himself.

  jimmy kimmell should not trash his guests on another show. this shows that he is extremely unprofessional. he may not like def leppard,that is an opinion but keep this to yourself. maybe if he had more clought in the tv world he could book only the guests he liked, we can only imagine what a bore his show would be.

  well too each his own i certainly will never watch his lame show again.
  i hope those in the entertainment world watch this. if his guests know that he feels this way maybe they should all boycott his show.
  if he has no famous faces he will have no show.

  Well said, Cheryl.

  That was pretty classless. Def Leppard have 200 times the talent he’ll ever wish to have.

  You’re right Cheryl — he shouldn’t be trashing past guests. The reason celebrities go on shows like that is to promote their latest album, movie, tv show, etc, and by trashing them on another show, he’s basically negating that promotion. And who’s really putting in the hard work, him or the guests? I think we all know the answer to that.

  Kimmel’s unfunny comments is exactly the reason why I watch Craig Ferguson instead of him. He’s lucky I even tuned in for his show ONCE… which was purely for the awesomeness of Def Leppard.

  Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

  This man has ZERO class! You don’t have to like everyone but don’t trash them just to make yourself look funny! Instead he looked like a fool. Besides haveing no class, you have no taste either. You are a disrespectful asshole!!!!!

  Totally classless. Singling out Def Leppard on the outset of their new album for jokes and put-downs was really sloppy. Good job, Kimmel, you just lost all my respect for your “talent.” I won’t be watching your show again.

  I understand that these hosts have people who book talent for them.. people they like, people they don’t. That’s fine.. he doesn’t even have to like their music. However, he doesn’t need to be an a$$ about it on another person’s show, just days later. That’s just in poor taste.

  Oh how tasteless! If it wasn’t for bands like Def Leppard, Celebrities, Authors, and well, “guests” on the show, you wouldn’t have a show. I understand that everyone has a right to their thoughts and opinions, however, when you are a popular talk show host and these “guests” are ultimately what gets you ratings and pays your paychecks, one would think common sense tells you to keep your opinions to yourself. One would also think that the management for the Kimmel Show would find this very unprofessional on his part and at least require some kind of public apology.. But then again, apparently those of us whom are fans of Def Leppard are not worthy enough viewers for them to worry about offending.

  The Jimmy Kimmel Show is off my viewers list now, he can go to hell!
