Megyn Kelly slams ‘sanctimonious leftist’ Jimmy Kimmel over Karl Malone blackface ‘hypocrisy’
NY Post
Megyn Kelly lashed out at “sanctimonious leftists” in Hollywood for their “hypocrisy” in embracing Trump-bashing Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel on Monday despite the fact that the late-night star once wore blackface for a comedy skit that made fun of basketball legend Karl Malone.
Kelly, who was fired by NBC in 2018 after she defended the use of blackface, lambasted the Oscar attendees “who laughed and curried favor with the man who wore blackface so many times, he’s second only to Justin Trudeau in his fondness for the practice.”
On her SiriusXM podcast Monday, she noted that the audience at the Academy Awards “absolutely ate up the performance by Hollywood darling Mr. Kimmel” even though “some of the very same celebrities who wanted you to believe they were horrified — horrified — after yours truly said in 2018 that people used to don dark makeup to imitate well-known black celebrities and it wasn’t a big deal.”
Kelly alluded to Kimmel’s stint on the 1990s cable comedy “The Man Show,” during which he portrayed Utah Jazz star Malone in a skit where he appeared with dark makeup to resemble the African American power forward.
In 2020, Kimmel apologized for the skit.
