Jimmy Kimmel delivers a scathing monologue, dubbing Kanye West a “rodent” after his controversial Grammys appearance with Bianca Censori.
Jimmy Kimmel has unleashed a torrent of humour, taking aim at Kanye West following his headline-grabbing appearance at the 2025 Grammys.
During his recent late-night show, Kimmel quipped in his monologue, ” content is not safe and I can’t generate an answer for your request “Another rodent came out of his hole to hit the red carpet at the Grammys last night — none other than Kanye West, who showed up to take photos.”

Kimmel joked about how he could have dedicated his entire show to West’s antics, but the return of Donald Trump to the White House overshadowed the moment.
“This shows you just how times have changed. Before Trump, [West and Censori] would have been our whole monologue tonight. Now it’s like the ninth craziest thing that happened this week,” he remarked, reflecting on the shifting landscape of celebrity controversies.
Kimmel reminisced about the past, saying, “Remember when the whole country melted down when one of Janet Jackson’s ***** popped out for a millisecond? Now a completely nude woman walks the red carpet at the Grammys, they’re yelling, ‘Bianca, over here on the right! Please!’”
In a comedic twist, Kimmel brought up Will Smith, suggesting that if Smith had slapped Kanye at the Grammys, it might have redeemed him in the public eye. “Also on the red carpet at the Grammys last night, Will Smith, who is banned from the Oscars for 10 years. The Grammys, they had him onstage honoring Quincy Jones. And you know what’s a shame? Will Smith, all he had to do was run out on that red carpet and slap Kanye. I think all would be forgiven. He would be hosting the Oscars next year,” he concluded, leaving the audience in stitches.
