Fortune Feimster: If the President Cancels Kimmel’s Show, Does the Guest Host Still Get Paid?
‘I will be here for the next three nights — At least, I think I will’
EXCERPT:
FEIMSTER: “This morning, the president of the United States posted, 'The word is, and it’s a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is next to go in the untalented late-night sweepstakes.'
(Audience boos)
Well, I was wondering, if the president cancels his show, does the guest host still get paid?
(Cheering and Applause)
Well, I don’t know. You know, Guillermo?
GUILLERMO: "I know I’m getting paid. I don’t know about you."
(Laughter)
FEIMSTER: "All right. Don’t rub it in."
GUILLERMO: "Maybe."
FEIMSTER: "And am I in trouble if Jimmy’s show gets canceled while I’m hosting?
(Laughter)
'Hey, thanks for letting me cat-sit. Oh, also, your cat’s dead.'”
