Steve-O is siding with Jimmy Kimmel after the late-night host poked fun at Robert Downey Jr.'s past substance abuse issues during his Oscars 2024 monologue.
What's up steve-o, how you doing today man?
Pretty good. How about yourself? I'm doing all right. I want to ask you, you know, did you see the Oscars last night?
What'd you think of it? I didn't watch the Oscars
but
I followed the news about it. Yeah. Yeah. So you must have heard about Jimmy Kimmel
He's catching like a back a lot of backlash. Yeah a Robert Downey jr. Joke. What do you think about that?
I think that it's gonna come to a point where nobody wants to host award shows anymore
It's a thankless job
So you don't think that he's in the wrong for you know, the jokes that he made even if Robert look, you know, uncomfortable
I mean, come on like
People get bent out of shape over everything
If guys
Got a history with substance abuse. He's got a history with substance abuse
You know like we spend enough time reminding ourselves of each other about it so that we can stay sober
Like what's the problem if somebody else does that?
You don't think that a line was crossed or you don't think I do not do you think that Jimmy Kimmel owes him an apology
I think we should just say hey, you know what like let's not take ourselves too seriously
Let's
Let comedians tell jokes and let's just be grateful for having great lives
So do you think that comedians should ever you don't have a filter there should be nothing off limits when it comes to them?
I mean, I personally don't like to
Offend people. I like to make myself the butt of my own jokes
But hey, man, you know let people be funny
