Jimmy Kimmel Has Emotional Farewell to David Letterman
. In other words, to say that David Letterman was Jimmy Kimmel's idol would be an understatement. "I wanted to be an artist as a kid," began Kimmel in his opening monologue (watch above). "I loved to draw. Every night after my parents went to bed I would sit at my desk in my room and draw, until it was very late, and while I was doing that I would watch a television show that is very important to me as you can tell [chokes up]. It was called Late Night with David Letterman." Jimmy went on to explain that what attracted him to the show was that "it was weird." Even though it looked like every other talk show, it wasn't. It was totally original." "Watching Late Night, not only did I learn how to do everything from Dave, the reason I have this show is because the executive at ABC saw me when I was a guest on Dave's show and hired me to host this show. So, I want to thank Dave and his writers and producers�." Read more and watch it here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
