Born in Brooklyn and raised in Las Vegas, Kimmel cut his teeth in college radio before grinding through a string of firings in Seattle, Tampa, and beyond. He found his voice at KROQ in Los Angeles as "Jimmy the Sports Guy," then broke onto television with Win Ben Stein's Money and The Man Show. In 2003, Jimmy Kimmel Live! debuted on ABC, turning its namesake into one of America's most enduring late-night hosts. FAME: Jimmy Kimmel traces his rise, controversies, comedy triumphs, and personal struggles. Discover how a class clown from Vegas became a voice that still stirs laughter and debate.
