Of course Jimmy Kimmel used the Oscars to jokingly revive his Matt Damon feud. He told the audience: 'Matt Damon can’t read and smells like dog medicine.'
, asking Jessica Chastain in a comedic segment, “Was it difficult filming your movie ‘The Martian’ because your co-star Matt Damon can’t read and smells like dog medicine?”Kimmel and Damon’s infamous feud dates back to the third season of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in 2005, when Kimmel made an offhand joke at the end of a show about booting Damon, an A-list guest who would never be cut for time. Soon, “I want to apologize to Matt Damon, we ran out of time” became a recurring bit on “Kimmel.
In 2008, the bit reached new heights when Kimmel’s then-girlfriend Sarah Silverman teamed up with Damon for a titled “I’m Fucking Matt Damon,” in which Silverman sings, “On the bed, on the floor / On a towel by the door / In the tub, in the car / Up against the mini-bar / I’m fucking Matt Damon.”Throughout the years, Kimmel and Damon have kept up the joke with various insults on talk shows and a series of comedic videos in which the pair go to “couples therapy.”, Kimmel had the announcer announce Damon as a “guest” and played him off with music immediately after he started speaking.
