Jimmy Kimmel is apologizing for doing impressions in blackface back in the 1990’s. Videos from Comedy Central’s The Man Show recently surfaced online.
Kimmel is currently on hiatus from his eponymous late-night show, but has been under fire in recent days for wearing dark makeup to impersonate former Utah Jazz star and NBA most valuable player Karl Malone. Many conservative pundits, including Donald Trump Jr., have blasted Kimmel for the blackface impression, as well as for audio from the 1990s unearthed by Fox News in which Kimmel uses the N-word while mimicking the rapper Snoop Dogg.
