Jimmy Kimmel
kicked off 2012 Primetime Emmy Awards with a pre-recorded bathroom
sketch and then cracked political jokes in his monologue. The host was
supported by all-girl stars in the former and dissed GOP presidential
candidate Mitt Romney in the latter.
In the skit, Kimmel burst into a bathroom cubicle crying over a Botox job gone wrong. Christina Hendricks, Mindy Kaling, Zooey Deschanel and a naked Lena Dunham helped him fix his face in an unconventional way before Ellen DeGeneres saved him from lack of pants.
In his monologue later, he said, "TV is an American institution, and
yet, one out of every five nominees tonight is British. ... I will admit
that 'Downton Abbey'
is an amazing show, there's so much meticulous attention to detail." He
added, "It really gives you a sense of what it must have been like to
grow up in Mitt Romney's house."
"Are any of you voting for Mitt Romney?" the comedian asked the cheering
crowd. "Alright, 40 Republicans, and the rest godless liberal
homosexuals," he said. "Being a Republican in Hollywood is like being a
Chick-Fil-A sandwich on the snack table at 'Glee'."
In the spirit of fair play, Kimmel also made fun of Democratic
Presidential candidate, Barack Obama, who once said he loved watching
Showtime's drama about government fighting terrorism. "I don't think the
President should be watching 'Homeland' for the same reason Charlie Sheen shouldn't be watching 'Breaking Bad'," he quipped.
To "Mad Men" lead actor Jon Hamm
who got nominated five times for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama
Series but hasn't won yet, Kimmel said, "I for one am shocked you didn't
win tonight." Hamm lost the coveted title to Damian Lewis from "Homeland" that night.
Kimmel also dissed Hollywood's narcissism, "Tonight is the night we
honor the one thing in Hollywood we love more than anything else:
ourselves. That's how the Emmys got their names. M, E, me," before
concluding, "Let's start this off, poor Steve Buscemi hasn't eaten in a week."
