Jimmy Kimmel has some bad news if you have a thing for some of the best looking people in Hollywood.
Jimmy Kimmel has been hosting a late-night talk show for over 20 years, so he has certainly brushed shoulders with some of the most prominent people in Hollywood.
Last week, Kimmel went on The Seth Meyers Show and dropped quite a bombshell about some of the prettiest people seen on our TV screens.
Speaking about Kimmel’s longevity as a host, Meyers asked whether there are things that you notice about celebrities.

You would think that, if you had been sitting down and chatting with them for years, you would find out interesting goss about them - maybe cute or annoying habits that many have.
Oddly enough, Kimmel said no, but he did give a little insight into something people wouldn’t have picked up on watching from their homes.
“No, not really. But… I wonder what you think about this. One of the things we get to experience as a talk show host that the home viewers don’t… is the smell of the guests.
"I found that the worst-smelling guests are the best-looking guys… Some of these guys who’ve been on the cover of People Magazine, sexiest man alive, they have an odor.”
Well that is certainly an interesting way to put it.
He continued: “Like an, ‘I don’t need to wear deodorant because I’m that attractive.’ I think they do it to try to tamp it down a bit, the attractive factor. Like in the way porcupines have quills, to keep the predators from eating them.”
Yeah....no...I don’t care who you are, pretty or not, get in the shower.
Myers joked it was a good way to keep the predators away, like the porcupine I suppose.
Kimmell added: “But some guys are so good looking. Like, you’re a good looking guy, but not so good looking that you could afford to not bathe.
“For me, with this face, I have to smell really good. You know. I have to be minty fresh at all times.”
Now Kimmel doesn’t go on to name names so there is no clue who he could be speaking about specifically due to his long career talking to actors and musicians.
But social media did its thing and got to guessing who he could be referring to. Who do you think Kimmel was talking about?
