Back to cruel: Jimmy Kimmel has parents dress kids in awful outfits -- VIDEO

Jimmy Kimmel is continuing his crusade to ruin childhood milestones — and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Last Halloween, Kimmel convinced parents to pretend they’d eaten all of their offspring’s candy and videotape the fallout. Next, he had parents gift the worst Christmas presents ever. Now he’s set his sights on back-to-school season, asking moms and dads to give their children new outfits that are ugly, uncomfortable, out of style, or just plain weird.

The results: “What boy has flowers on their shirt? Even the teacher will probably laugh at me,” moans one kid, rolling on the floor in distress. A girl named Isabella pouts in her frilly tutu before deadpanning, “I look like an idiot.” As for the boy asked to wear a burlap sack so he can look more like Jesus? Let’s just say he doesn’t take it very well. See for yourself:

Robert Pattinson talks dogging, on-camera prostate exams on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' -- VIDEO

Has Robert Pattinson ditched brooding awkwardness for playfulness? The Cosmopolis star spent 10 minutes effectively trolling Jimmy Kimmel last night, and the result is a sight to behold — particularly because it contains nary a mention, implied or otherwise, of Pattinson’s very famous ex-girlfriend. (Kristen Who-art?)

Pattinson began by joking that he’s now living in a trash can behind an archway, and things just got weirder from there — especially when Kimmel brought in four female college students via Skype, and Pattinson quipped that he wanted to ask them to bring him pairs of dirty underwear. He also told stories about accidentally hanging out in a notorious dogging spot and pretending to get a prostate exam in his new movie. Really, description can’t do this appearance justice. Watch the interview for yourself below.

Kristen Stewart, Justin Bieber, and Snooki read mean tweets about themselves -- VIDEO

Jimmy Kimmel Live! has become a factory for laugh-out-loud segments that have fun at guests’ expenses. Last night was no different. Celebrities including Kristen Stewart, Justin Bieber, and Snooki read nasty tweets about themselves out loud to the camera.

While some of the tweets targeted stars’ careers — James Van Der Beek’s show Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23 and Katy Perry’s movie Katy Perry: Part of Me — the funniest ones were personal attacks. Larry King look repulsed as he read, ”Did you know that if you skinned Larry King & ironed out his leather, you could make enough coats to give 1 to every poor child in America?”

Most of the celebs took the insults in stride, but Danny McBride couldn’t quite suppress his anger.

Watch the video below (the segment starts halfway through the clip).

Gary Oldman reads from R. Kelly's autobiography on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' -- VIDEO

Gary Oldman performed a dramatic reading from R.Kelly’s autobiography Soulacoaster: The Diary of Me on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night, dressed in a tux and complete with his British accent.

Watch the video below to see Oldman read such insightful prose as ”Just wanted to holler at you” and ”We’ll just let it do what it do.”

Mike Tyson sings LeBron's praises on Jimmy Kimmel -- VIDEO

Kevin Durant may have helped lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a Game 1 NBA Finals win over the Miami Heat last night, but Mike Tyson knew just the thing to help rally Heat and LeBron James fans — an inspiring song.

Last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Tyson performed his original number “LeBron.” It had everything you could want: Tyson on guitar, lyrics such as “LeBron James is great, he makes Cleveland irate,” a shout-out to James’ fourth-quarter choking problem, and even a dove.

Watch the tune below: READ FULL STORY »

Andy Samberg's PSA: Friends don't let friends...eat other friends

While most celebrities look the other way when people eat other people, Andy Samberg is making a difference. Last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live, he unveiled a PSA that sheds light on the growing epidemic of cannibalism crippling America’s cities. “Not eating people is easy and fun,” Samberg explains, after persuading an aspiring man-eater to try a hamburger instead of an old man. His do-and-don’t guidelines — “the five Ds” — are instructive and easy to remember the next time you have a craving for human flesh. Watch and learn. READ FULL STORY »

Jimmy Kimmel cut Rick Santorum joke from his White House Correspondents' Dinner speech

Jimmy Kimmel didn’t spare many feelings at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last month. During his address, the late night host took aim at President Obama, New Jersey governor Chris Christie, attendee Lindsay Lohan, and Keith Olbermann, among others. But there’s one target who escaped Kimmel’s crosshairs: former presidential candidate Rick Santorum.

During a visit to Howard Stern’s Sirius XM show this week, Kimmel revealed that he ultimately decided to nix a joke that referenced Santorum’s actions after the death of his infant son. The line: “Newt Gingrich’s campaign is so dead, Mitt Romney wants to baptize it and Rick Santorum wants to put it in a jar and show it to his kids.”

Jimmy Kimmel introduces Johnny Depp to an army of Depp impersonators -- VIDEO

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Johnny Depp must be one of the most flattered actors in Hollywood. Depp is famous for playing idiosyncratic characters who boast intricate, unique hairstyles and costumes — making him catnip for movie fans who like to play dress-up.

On Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, Depp got up-close and personal with a few of the dudes who make their living as professional Depp impersonators. Well, sort of — Kimmel’s cousin Sal gathered the impersonators outside the show’s studio. Depp then had a chance to speak with them from the safe distance of Jimmy’s set. Though the Oscar nominee was almost disappointingly chilled out when chatting with his doppelgangers — the guy is so laid back that he’s practically horizontal — their interaction did yield a few gems… like when Depp admitted that he’s never seen Edward Scissorhands. Gasp!
