The Stars Come Out To Celebrate Jimmy Kimmel Fucking Ben Affleck

As we all know, the best way to get even with a cheating girlfriend is to go out and sleep with a guy. But an even better way to get even with a cheating girlfriend is to sleep with a famous guy, even if said guy hasn't done anything redeemding since delivering a charming award acceptance speech over 10 years ago. This is all just conventional wisdom. So after the Sarah Silverman and Matt Damon viral sensation (and also, heavily played and shared video), it only makes sense for Jimmy Kimmel to enjoy the ultimate revenge fuck, with the "We Are The World" styled choral help of a rather extraordinary tag set. (For the record: Jimmy's the one who's fucking Ben Affleck like they're in prison.)

At first I was like, 'More of this shit?'

Then Huey Lewis showed up & I lost it. I think Jimmy one-upped Sarah.

I think Jimmy Kimmel is waaaay underrated. its shit like this that has pushed him ahead of all the other late night folks in my mind.

Plus, unnecessary censorship never gets old.

Perry Farrel, Huey Lewis AND Harrison Ford?

Well done, Kimmel, well done. Now someone just has to release an MP3 of the tunes sans all the blleps.

That was awful. Sarah Silverman's was more original and Jimmy's was completely overdone with the huge amount of celebrities.

Sarah's is the better mp3, but Jimmy totally blew her away with the video. Brilliant stuff, and I'm impressed by the caliber of celebrities that he got involved. Great stuff. Now, is there an uncensored video without the annoying bleeps?

Affleck haters need to update to their repertoire to account for the fact that Gone Baby Gone was pretty good. I know, I was surprised too.

I don't like anything that involves Fall Out Boy and/or Good Charlotte. It was a clusterfuck of celebrities, but other than that I don't see what's funny about it.

it's true, Gone Baby Gone was actually a very good movie.

And Jimmy completely buttfucked the shit out of Sarah on this one. Most of the celebrities weren't even necessary, because Kimmel had the ultimate ringer. Two words: MEAT LOAF.
