During a stand-up routine at the 2025 Disney Upfront event, Jimmy Kimmel faced backlash for a controversial joke comparing Eli and Peyton Manning to the Menendez brothers, who are infamous for their parents' murder. His comments sparked criticism on social media, with some calling him out for insensitivity, while others defended his comedic take on the Manning brothers' performance. Kimmel's humor, which included a quip about 'jars of mayonnaise' and followed up with another jab, provoked a mixed response, highlighting the fine line comedians walk in addressing sensitive topics.
I do wanna thank the Manning brothers for finally answering the question: What if two jars of mayonnaise could sing? The answer is: They can't, and they shouldn't.
Too soon or too late? Kimmel asked, referencing his previous comment about the Menendez brothers.
Ladies and gentlemen, here with another song, the Manning brothers, Kimmel said, despite Eli and Peyton not returning to the stage.
Kimmel is an ass! one annoyed person tweeted, criticizing the comedian's controversial joke.
