Kanye West to Appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live Tonight
Jimmy Kimmel and Kanye West are ready to face-off. After a much publicized feud online, the rapper is set to make an appearance at the talk show host's late night show.
Jimmy and Kanye, who claim to be friends back then, have been through a bit of a Twitter feud last month. It started with West's in-depth interview with BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe, where he noted that he is the "biggest" rock star in the world. This became the highlight of Kimmel's Sept. 24 monologue on his show. According to the host, it was "weird" that Kanye chose to be his own "hype man." Jimmy's "Kimmel Kid (re)Kreation" even took hit at the rapper's interview, which the Grammy Award-winning rapper took a ton of offense from.
In a series of now deleted tweets, Kanye called out the late night show host.
"JIMMY KIMMEL IS OUT OF LINE TO TRY AND SPOOF IN ANY WAY THE FIRST PIECE OF HONEST MEDIA IN YEARS," the "Yeezus" rapper posted, followed by "JIMMY KIMMEL, I DON'T TAKE IT AS A JOKE.... YOU DON'T HAVE SCUM BAGS HOPPING OVER FENCES TRYING TO TAKE PICTURES OF YOUR DAUGHTER."
Jimmy also sent out a few comical tweets to the rapper, including "apparently @KanyeWest is VERY VERY ANGRY with me...."
While there isn't any clear closure to the online fight, one thing's for sure: Kanye on the Jimmy Kimmel Live will make for very good TV.
In an image posted on TMZ, the rapper was seen walking into the studio of the ABC show in a white shirt, torn jeans and holding a Louis Vuitton bag.
Whether or not the two will patch things up together live on TV is still yet to be seen. Jimmy Kimmel Live hosted by Jimmy Kimmel airs every night on ABC.
