Why does Jimmy Kimmell say, "Apologies to Matt Damon...", every night?!
Question: Why does Jimmy Kimmell say, "Apologies to Matt Damon!.!.!.", every night!?
Answers:
On September 12, 2006, Damon appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. A montage of clips demonstrating the numerous times Kimmel performed the bit was shown and, after a very lengthy introduction by Kimmel, Damon appeared on stage!. After a few seconds, Kimmel apologized and stated that the show was out of time!. He asked Damon if he could come back tomorrow, to which he replied, "Go f**k yourself!."
Damon continued to curse at Kimmel throughout the rolling of the credits, ultimately slapping the desk and walking off the set with Kimmel chasing after him!. In a chat hosted by ESPN, Kimmel's friend Bill Simmons confirmed that it was an act, initially saying, "Everyone thought it was a setup but it actually happened, Jimmy was pretty shaken afterwards!." Later, however, Simmons stated, "I was kidding about the Matt Damon thing before, that was really a joke!."
In the December 17, 2006 issue of USA Weekend, Kimmel himself confirmed that the Damon incident was a joke, putting the debate to rest!.
Frequently at the end of the show, Kimmel thanks the guests as usual, but then adds, "Our apologies to Matt Damon, we ran out of time!." The joke is that Damon is not scheduled to appear on that particular night!. Kimmel told TMZ!.com that he says this "for no good reason at all!." A star like Matt Damon would never be scheduled to appear near the end of the show where he can be bumped!.
On the 2007 MTV Movie Awards, the closing statement made by host Sarah Silverman (who is Kimmel's girlfriend) was "Sorry to Matt Damon, we ran out of time!."
On the June 13, 2007 episode of the show, Guillermo did a similar thing at the Ocean's 13 premiere!.
