Jimmy Kimmel helped Michelle Obama promote her new healthy eating campaign "FNV", which stands for "fruit and vegetables," and got confused in the process. In a segment which aired on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Friday night, August 21, he introduced himself as a "regular man" and pointed out what the acronym meant, "As in, eat your effin' vegetables."
He, however, got it wrong. "I think you might be a little confused," Mrs. Obama told Kimmel. "I have HBO," the comedian argued. "It's not OK, and this is supposed to be for kids. There shouldn't even be an 'F' in it." The First Lady told him that the "F" stood for "fruit," but he's still confused. "Eat your fruiting vegetables? It makes no sense at all," he said.
Kimmel then asked Mrs. Obama if he could sleep over or wash his hair in the Lincoln bedroom, but she turned down his requests. In the end, he's quite pleased to get a tomato from the First Lady.
