Jimmy Kimmel was one of the victims of mean tweets following his joke about Matt LeBlanc during the 2015 Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday, September 20 and that prompted him to launch "Mean Tweets Week". He would showcase mean tweets on his show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" all week long.
Instead of showing a taped segment of celebrities reading mean tweets, the show will present them live in front of a studio audience. On Monday, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kristen Bell and Jeff Bridges kicked off "Mean Tweets Week" on the ABC late-night talk show.
"If you find Benedict Cumberbatch attractive, I'm guessing you'd also quite enjoy staring directly at a cat's anus," the "Sherlock" star read with a laugh. Clearly not letting it bring him down, he amusingly responded, "Well, someone did. And they put a ring on it," and flashed a wedding ring from wife Sophie Turner.
"House of Lies" actress Bell read a mean tweet directed at her, "Kristen Bell seems like such a b***h, her vagina is probably an Alcatraz for penis." She winked at the camera before walking away.
Oscar-winning actor Bridges read, "Am now convinced Jeff Bridges is a crazy motherf***er, and not in a cool way, just in a disturbed, hobo-shouting-at-sparrows-and-sidewalks way." He responded, "Very interesting critique. I will take that to heart."
