Jimmy Kimmel poked fun at Kim Kardashian, among other celebrities present during the White House Correspondents Association Dinner at the Washington Hilton yesterday. The late night comedian mocked the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star by calling her “the greatest threat to American right now.”
“When you took office, the Kardashians had one reality show,” Kimmel said to the President. “Now they have four. This is not a good trend.” In case you didn’t know, the Kardashian family reportedly inked a new $40 million contract with E! for three more years of reality programming. Kimmel added, “Right now Navy Seal Team 6 is outside the Kardashian compound in Beverly Hills, disguised as the Denver Nuggets …so they can sneak in undetected.”
But Kimmel wasn’t the only one who dissed Kim Kardashian. President Obama was heard offstage mentioning the reality TV starlet.”Seriously, guys, what am I doing here?” Obama said. “I’m the President of the United States, and I’m opening for Jimmy Kimmel? Why am I telling knock-knock jokes to Kim Kardashian? What is she famous for, anyway?”
Kim, on the other hand, was a good sport about the whole thing. “I think the highlight of my night was meeting Martha Stewart,” Kardashian told Us Weekly. “It’s always a fun night.”
Meanwhile, it looks like Kim has already ended her feud with Mad Men star Jon Hamm, thanks to 30 Rock. Both appeared on the Thursday episode of the NBC comedy series and according to Perez Hilton, bumped into each other and “laughed it all off.”
