Matt Damon Gets Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame and Congrats from Jimmy Kimmel

July 26th, 2007 // 2 Comments

Jimmy Kimmel has frequently joked that his final guest of the evening on his late night talk show has been movie star, Matt Damon, pretending that the show simply ran out of time for him. And, ever the good sport, Damon even feigned aggravation at constantly being kept backstage when he appeared as a guest on the show last year. In return, Kimmel has taken out an ad in Variety to applaud Damon’s acquisition of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

“Congratulations on the star and sorry we ran out of time. We’ll try to squeeze you in soon.” Kimmel closes the print ad by stating, “This ad cost me $8,512.”

And while Matt’s been enjoying accolades from fellow goofball, Jimmy Kimmel, he’s been less than kind to the character of James Bond, basically saying that Bourne is way better than him and nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-NYAH-nyah. He says that Bond is “an imperialist and he’s a misogynist.” From CNN:

“He kills people and laughs and sips martinis and wisecracks about it,” Damon, 36, told The Associated Press in an interview.”

I would tend to agree with Damon’s estimation, except that Bond has managed to distract me from his misogyny with those tiny little bathing trunks, that evil little scamp.
