AND THE OSCAR FOR MOST HATED IN H'WOOD GOES TO JIMMY KIMMEL!

Tone-teat attacks on heloved figures make him a pariah

- 

LATE-NIGHT TV yakker Jimmy Kimmel has cemented his status as the most hated man in Hollywood with his tacky Oscar ceremony attacks on beloved actor Robert Downey Jr. and former President Donald Trump, industry sources snitch.

The Jimmy Kimmel Live! host’s career was already on thin ice, tipsters dish, due to his long history of lobbing cheap shots and unfunny insults — including jabs at NFL great Aaron Rodgers, actor Matt Damon and FOX News fave Sean Hannity! 

However, entertainment moles say the smarmy comic has doomed himself after using his gig as Academy Awards emcee to skewer Downey for his past drug struggles — on the same night the comeback kid won the Best Supporting Actor trophy for his critically acclaimed performance in Oppenheimer.

“Jimmy likes to think he’s the toast of Tinseltown. But his popularity has plunged in recent years, and after his Oscar debacle he really will be toast in this town,” squeals an insider.

“The fact that he tried to take down Downey, who’s a Hollywood favorite, didn’t go down well with anyone.”
