TV show host Jimmy Kimmel celebrated his son Billys first birthday by paying him a tribute on social media. Kimmel made headlines in May last year when he described the hardship he and his family had to endure following the birth of his son with a heart condition. The 50-year-old chat show host took to Twitter on Sunday to share a photograph of son Billy on his first birthday, reports dailymail.co.uk.

Kimmel also wrote a touching caption along with the image as he said: “A year ago today, God gave us this tough little boy. “Today, we thank the nurses and doctors at Cedars Sinai and Childrens LA who saved his life and those who shared thoughts and prayers.” He is famous for “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”, which is aired in India on Star World and Star World HD.

As he has been very vocal about healthcare in the US especially when it comes to children, he finished off the post with a message urging everyone to register to vote in order to make a difference. He concluded: “We cannot stay quiet. Please wish Billy happy birthday by registering to vot! https://vote.gov.”

With Golden Globes handing out winners last night, the race to the Oscars has become quite interesting. And in advance of Jimmy Kimmel’s Oscars press tour, ‘The Academy’ released a first look at the 90th Oscars official key art featuring the late-night host. Scribbled across the top is a question, ‘What could possibly go wrong?’

With last year’s Best Picture mix-up between ‘La La Land’ and ‘Moonlight’, it’s safe to assume new precautions will be taken for this year’s ceremony. This will be Kimmel’s second consecutive year as host. He got heaps of praise for his presentation and the jokes. Last year’s producers Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd also are returning to produce the 2018 show.

In an interview with a leading US publication in December, the 50-year-old host shared that human error shouldn’t be an issue this year. ‘I hope that we don’t top that. I don’t want to have the first and second biggest blunders in the history of television on my watch,’ noted Kimmel.

The 90th Oscars will be held on Sunday, March 4 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California.

Lena Headey Pulled A ‘Cersei' On Jimmy Kimmel & Proved Why She Is A Real Life Queen As Well

Celebrities

Sep 172017

If I asked you to name the one character who we all have loved to hate and has only grown danker with every passing season, you will sing one name in chorus with me, i.e- Cersei Lannister.

The woman who made the role so iconic, that even the makers have sleepless nights trying to give her dialogues that match the personality of the character is none other than the lovely Lena Headey. Our beloved Cersei graced the Jimmy Kimmel show and of course, they had a special section where the two had a full impromptu conversation similar to a scene in ‘Game Of Thrones’. The clip trending on the internet is an old one but it’s one of those things where you love going back to a good classic.

There was wine involved (of course) and Lena not only managed to drink like a boss from that fancy goblet, she also managed to convert the conversation into a fully blown goblet of fire actually. In one of her perky dialogues, she exclaimed how he’s wearing a lovely tie, but it’s a shame that it’s around a worthless neck! Jimmy was flabbergasted of course.

The next season of our beloved ‘Game Of Thrones’ is still far away, but until then, if we keep getting a peek of our favourite stars in amazing appearances like this, I think fans are sorted for a while. Cersei is pregnant, her prophecy has bad news for her, and her relationship with Jaime has been ruined. The next season will not just draw closure to who sits on the iron throne, but will also mark the end of every character. Are you team Cersei or Dany? Who cares right now, love her or hate her, Lena Headey as Cersei has been etched in every heart.
