I have been invited as media to attend these events. Expenses have been paid in exchange for my coverage. All opinions are my own.
During my #ABCTVEvent in LA we visited the Jimmy Kimmel Live show for a night full of fun, and lots of laughter. Our evening began with a delicious spread of Cinco de Mayo inspired food, followed by a Q&A with Executive Producer Jill Leiderman and co-head writer Molly McNearney, who also happens to be Jimmy’s wife.
Kimmel had a packed house, which is no surprise considering how entertaining he is. His special guests for the evening were Julia Roberts and Sally Field! Talk about awesome! The ladies participated in the first-ever Celebrity Curse Off, which was REALLY hilarious in person since there were no bleeps. I was shocked at some of the words that came out of their mouths too! LOL!
I was so honored to be in the same building as such amazing talent, although we did not have a chance to meet the award-winning actresses in person, Jimmy Kimmel did make a surprise visit during our tour of the set! He was a gracious host and super nice in person. He even offered to take pictures with each blogger individually instead of the recommended group photo. Can you believe I’m sitting in the chair Julia and Sally sat in moments before?? Eeek! 🙂
After Jimmy said his goodbye’s we snapped a group shot with the awesome Marshall, seated in Kimmel’s chair.
Talk about an incredible night! If you didn’t catch the live show on May 5th, check out these clips of the show:

Pretty cool that you got to see the taping live and even pose with Jimmy! I used to watch him on the Man Show. Gotta say like his new venue much better.
