Jimmy Kimmel apologized for the “embarrassing” impressions he did of multiple Black celebrities in the 1990s, including former NBA star Karl Malone. For his Malone impression, shown on the Comedy Central program The Man Show, which ran from 1999-2004, Jimmy wore blackface. In a prepared statement, the Jimmy Kimmel Live! host said that he believes that he’s evolved and “matured over the last twenty-plus years,” and hopes that is “evident to anyone who watches my show.”
