ABC's Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday announced he will be taking the summer off after facing criticism over wearing blackface in a recurring skit he performed while working on "The Man Show" on Comedy Central.

Kimmel, as a co-host of the "The Man Show," performed a recurring skit that included him dressed in blackface as then-NBA star Karl Malone. Videos and photos of the skits on the show, which ran from 1999-2004, have been circulating online recently with calls for Kimmel to apologize.

This is karma for Kimmel going woke.

But if you're acting like a specific person and not a caricature of a whole race, I don't think it's blackface.

This pleases me.

I agree...he deserves to be eaten by his own. Not necessarily because of his beliefs, but more so because of how disingenuous he's always seemed with the holier than thou shtick when some of his most famous work was him sitting in black face on a show about women and titties.

He has a net worth of $45 million. I think he can get by on substantially less. Where is he donating the majority to? Does Karl Malone have a foundation?
