Have you been up at 3am tweet-shaming President Obama recently? Well, watch out, he sees you.

Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, President Barack Obama took out an iPhone and participated in Kimmel's much-beloved Mean Tweets segment, fielding insult after insult on everything, from some bad shampoo to his choice of jeans. You think dealing with Putin's tough? Try sleeping after being called both the Nickelback of Presidents and the Sharknado of Presidents. Cold blooded.

The final insult of the night came from, you guessed it, Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump. Under the guise of his @realDonaldTrump handel, Trump lobbed 140 characters of fury at the commander-in-chief.


To which Obama replied, "At least I will go down as a President."

Britney Spears went with a group of her dancers to Jimmy Kimmel's house in the dead of night to wake him up. His reaction is priceless!

Jimmy Kimmel stars in this 'deleted scene' from the upcoming Batman v. Superman movie. They must have just cut this out for the trailer. What a shame, it probably would have been a very different movie if the superheroes were allowed to stop pretending they don't recognize each other out of costume. 

And, of course Ben Affleck managed to get his bestie Matt Damon on the show even though he has nothing to do with the movie. 

Game of Thrones fans will recognize Lena Headey as the infamous Queen Cersei Lannister. She's cool, mean and also a little bit drunk most of the time. In other words, if she could convince her brother Jaime to leave her alone long enough, she would be the perfect contestant on The Bachelor. This video simply confirms it. 



You tell 'em, Cersei. 

It didn't quite break the Internet when Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy broke up ahead of their television show return, but it caused everything to slow down for a little bit.

And even though we didn't know the exact cause, we've had continued exposure to the unfolding drama. For instance, we all couldn't believe it when Kermit quickly rebounded.

And so it was with heavy hearts and uncomfortable awkwardness that the pair come on Jimmy Kimmel Live Sept. 21 to explain more about what led to the rift in this beloved couple.

So watch and maybe you can get a little more perspective how love can go wrong between two muppets.

Earlier today, Vanity Fair tweeted out a promotion for their big story on what's so good about current late night programming.

We talked to all the titans of late-night television, and found out why it's better than ever http://t.co/pIG1c7wSs1 pic.twitter.com/p8EgyB5jva

You may notice it's a real sausage fest in there.

I've looked at this @VanityFair photo for too long and now I've forgotten what women look like. pic.twitter.com/wMVetfiy6x

To be fair, Vanity Fair did mention the lack of gender diversity in their story:

What's conspicuously missing from late-night, still, is women. How gobsmackingly insane is it that no TV network has had the common sense—and that's all we're talking about in 2015, not courage, bravery, or even decency—to hand over the reins of an existing late-night comedy program to a female person?

And they did mention comedienne Samantha Bee's upcoming TBS late night talk show. She, however, decided to respond directly to the tweet, imagining herself in the picture with the rest of her peers.

And then followed up with the kicker:

Really, a Samantha Bee centaur shooting lasers out of her eyes says it all.

Gary Busey, American actor and contorted facial expression extraordinaire, is joining season 15 of Dancing With The Stars.

He made his grand announcement last night by dressing up as a cowboy and entering on horseback to greet Jimmy Kimmel because...well, he's Gary Busey.

At 72 years old, Busey might seem a bit old to be competing on the show. But he's spritely compared to 82-year-old Cloris Leachman, the oldest person to ever join the cast.

Hi Ho Silver, away!"

Handshake DENIED, Jimmy.

Dancing With The Stars premieres Monday, September 14 on ABC.

If you haven't heard about it by now, a dentist from Minnesota paid $50,000 to illegally kill a beloved and protected lion in Zimbabwe earlier this month.

The whole things seems to have gotten the better of the usually unflappable Jimmy Kimmel.

"It's just vomitous," he said while going on a tirade against the senseless killing of exotic trophy animals.

Kimmel actually grew emotional as he tried to understand the thought process of a big game hunter. It was a very tender moment for the often-cynical talk show host.

Adding to his credit, Kimmel wanted to bring some positive to story by circulating the web address of a conservation organization, and asked viewers to donate.



Way to make something good out of something that has caused a lot of Internet vitriol, Jimmy.

President Obama receives his fair share of criticism online, but he’s embracing all the hate in a new edition of “Mean Tweets” on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Watch him react to a #ThanksObama and someone who does’t approve of his dad-jeans style.

“Is there any way we could fly Obama to some golf course halfway around the world and just leave him there?” writes one girl.

“I think that’s a great idea,” he says.

You can also watch Kimmel’s post-Mean Tweets interview with Obama below, in which he says he didn’t think those messages were very mean at all.

“You should see what the Senate says about me,” he says.

He also talks about why he still has a BlackBerry and how he doesn’t actually use Twitter himself.

Jimmy Kimmel has released his latest batch of mean tweets as another all-music edition just in time for the 2015 Grammy Awards on Sunday.

In this new video, Wiz Khalifa finds out he looks like “a homeless woman,” Drake finds out he looks like Lord Voldemort and Haim takes their hate mail as a compliment.

The bit also includes – among others – Sam Smith, Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Ariana Grande, Katy Perry and 5 Seconds Of Summer.

Jimmy Kimmel has released his 8th edition of "Celebrities Read Mean Tweets," and this stuff just keeps getting better. Thank you Internet trolls!

Here's the latest edition which includes a whole new slew of insults towards - among others - Britney Spears, Lisa Kudrow, Michael Chiklis, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Pratt.

Whiskey, cabaret, and homeless guys... oh my!

In light of the recent video of the little boy asked to recite all of the dirty words he knows, so "in the interest of science," Jimmy Kimmel decided to do his own experiment and ask children in LA what naughty words they might know.
