In case you missed it today, Jimmy Kimmel has decided he’s not going to take his girlfriend Sarah Silverman’s cheatinglying down:
The attention to detail is astounding, as is the amount of sheer star power that Kimmel manages to tap (pun intended). The cake, delivered in a ”FEX” box, makes me giggle almost as much as Brad Pitt’s lecherous grin. (How many times did you have to watch it before you realized that Pitt was the FEX delivery guy? I’m not going to lie — I was too awed by Affleck’s sartorial blunder bravery to notice until a third viewing.) I don’t know how Sarah can compete — Kimmel definitely seems to have Hollywood’s sympathy vote, with more stars joining in a chorus of support (Harrison Ford, Cameron Diaz, Christina Applegate, Joan Jett,Macy Gray, Robin Williams, Don Cheadle, Huey Lewis, JoshGroban, Rebecca Romijn, McLovin, among others) than seemingly attended last night’s Oscars.
What do you think, PopWatchers? Are you engaged by this public display of faux-wanton behavior and breathlessly awaiting the next installment? Or are you just hoping the "paramours" take their private affairs offline?

Both were hilarious!
Josh Groban & Harrison Ford’s parts had me rolling.
But, I have to give it up to Sarah & Matt. They were the originals, keeping it simple and funny. They win this viral victory.
I am loving it! Please let there be more!
Both are amazing. Jimmy’s star power was awesome. I do have to give it to the originals, Sarah & Matt. I was laughing hysterically.
I never thought I’d see Josh Groban dropping the F-bomb. That was hilarious.
f-ing GENIUS!
Oh my God. I spit my Vitamin Water all over my desk. That was the funniest think I’ve seen in at least three months.
Um. “Thing”. I meant “thing”.
Effin’ high-larious! The jean shorts are my favorite part! I woke my husband up (I watched in bed last night) ’cause I was laughing so hard.
this is gonna be an all out war. Sara’s was kinda funny, but I don’t like her that much. Jimmy’s. omg, where do I start? Josh Groban really got me, and Harrison Ford was a good one too. I’m glad he used real, high profile stars, and not just the regular goofballs
Nothing beats the original. But points for using two of Damon’s Ocean co-stars.
They were equally hilarious! I hope the next one is Matt and Ben f***ing each other.
I think we all know what’s next: “I’m f****** Obama.”
Don’t forget Dominic Monaghan. He was there, too.
Just great–made sitting through that dull Oscar telecast almost worth it!
yeah lost and lord of the rings-philes gotta note the dominic monaghan appearance
hahaha harrison ford!! i was so surprised to see him blowing kisses hahaha… and josh groban dropping the F bomb! so many times! brad pitt makes an awesome FEX guy. i love it!
sarah & matt’s song is more catchy though
Neither of them are funny. I don’t know how either of them have careers. I wish they would both go away.
Thank goodness I didn’t watch this at work-I can’t stop cracking up!
Well, Ben’s always wanted to be gay, he just can’t. I remember his commentary on the special edition of Pearl Harbor with Josh Hartnett about how their characters were so in love. I think there was a video, too. On the dvd.
I, too, woke up my husband last night with my laughing at this! And this morning, he had me get online so he could see it, too! I’ll brag that yes, I did recognize Brad Pitt immediately, even though he seemed to try so hard to keep his head down. The jean shorts and metallic muscle shirt were a gift from the gods as far as I’m concerned. I can’t wait to see what happens next, though I can’t see it going anywhere new without it becoming a (more) ridiculous parody of itself.
While the video is hysterical (the Robin Williams water bottle explosion really got me) I wish there was an unedited version, as all the bleeps take away some of the funny stuff they’re saying. If anyone knows a way to get it unedited that’d be great but I’ll still take it like it is.
GLORIOUS! I loved it. The original will always be my favorite, but this was a close second. I await with bated breath the next installment.
Though the whole thing had me laughing, I think my favorite part was the sheer randomness of “Dedicated to the memory of Norman Mailer”.
I was at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel when they shot the pool thing and Jimmy really was —-ing Ben Affleck.
Just kidding. Don’t get your panties in a bunch.
I don’t *want* to think it’s funny…but I was laughing enough that the hubby came downstairs to see what I was watching.
I’ve never really been a Jimmy Kimmel fan, but I have to admit that was a lot funnier than anything Letterman, Conan, or especially Leno have done in a very long time. The bits that Letterman and Leno have been doing for so long look pretty lazy and uninspired compared to this.
THAT was Josh Groban? THAT was Brad Pitt?!
Hilarious. Jimmy FTW!
I’m amazed at how stereotypically gay Jimmy Kimmell’s video is. Is this supposed to be funny, because I’m not laughing.
Well, why should I be surprised, this is the same guy who ranted on how Rebecca Romijn Stamos was too beautiful to play a transgendered woman or used Chris Crocker to fuel more gay jokes.
Josh Grobin & McLovin! Awesome
