Late night show host Jimmy Kimmel found himself in the spotlight after NFL star Aaron Rodgers hinted at a possible connection to Epstein’s infamous list.
A December court order by a federal judge mandated the disclosure of the names of more than 150 associates linked to the late sex offender.
Jimmy Kimmel Sparks Feud With Aaron Rodgers After Baseless Allegation
The comedian hit back at Rodgers after he suggested Kimmel’s potential relationship with Jeffrey Epstein’s friends during an appearance on the “Pat McAfee Show.”
The 56-year-old took to X (formerly Twitter) to vehemently deny the New York Jets quarterback’s allegations, stating that he had no relationship with Epstein and warning of possible consequences. In a direct response to Rodgers, Kimmel tweeted:
“Dear A—-: for the record, I have never met, flown with, visited, or had any contact with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any “list” other than soft false obvious nonsense- idiots like yourself can’t tell the difference from reality. Your reckless words are endangering my family. Go ahead and we will debate the facts further in court. @AaronRodgers12.”
NEW: Quarterback Aaron Rodgers says he will release “some kind of bottle” when the list of Epstein’s associates is released and suggests Jimmy Kimmel will be named.
Everyone is excited ?
“There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel really hoping it doesn’t come out.”

Kimmel’s supporters flooded the tweet with messages of encouragement. A passionate fan exclamation“GET A– JIMMY!”, while another was blunt specified, “Jimmy Kimmel is great. Aaron Rodgers is an a-hole. Finish.”
This Cybernaut too recorded, “I love Jimmy Kimmel. As always Aaron Rodgers is a tool of lies.” However, not everyone is on the side of “The Man Show” co-host, with some suggesting that he isn’t above Rodgers in hurling allegations.
“If you can throw an allegation so can he. You are not above him,” commenting a critic. Another took a more aggressive stance, state, “You spent YEARS peddling defamatory accusations against @AaronRodgers12 like the one below. I hope he returns the favor and sues the s— of you for defamation.”
The statement sparked outrage as fans engaged in a heated online debate, with some defending Kimmel’s comedic style.
One user responded to the criticism, write, “@TheChiefNerd there is nothing defamatory about Kimmel. You clearly don’t understand what that means, so maybe you shouldn’t be commenting on things you know nothing about.” One more chime in, “That’s the best example you can find. You don’t have to tweet, you know.
Unraveling Epstein’s Network: New York Judge Approves Release of Names of Associates
In a landmark legal decision, New York federal judge Loretta Preska allowed the disclosure of an elusive associate connected to the notorious s—x offender.
These developments promise to reveal the mysterious figures surrounding his dark legacy, with more than 150 names to be announced on January 1.

Preska’s decision comes with a caveat, as certain names will remain sealed or redacted to protect the privacy of an alleged minor sexual abuse victim who has not spoken publicly. The expected disclosures include high-profile figures, including “public figures” from Epstein’s address book.
The full extent of the disclosure was uncertain at the time. Preska noted that many associations, possibly involving figures such as former President Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and attorney Alan Dershowitz, have already been widely reported in the media.
Those named in the document can appeal within 14 days if they object to their public identification. The record stems from a lawsuit settled with Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s partner, serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking.
According to AP News, the release of the list was linked to a defamation lawsuit by Virginia Giuffre against Maxwell, alleging recruitment as a “s—x slave” for Epstein and his associates, including Prince Andrew.
For some, the revelations may be cause for concern, especially for Bill Gates, whose association with Epstein has been speculated to have contributed to his 2021 split from ex-wife Melinda.
Gates, who faces scrutiny for maintaining a relationship with Epstein despite his conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor, has admitted regret for his dinner with the late businessman.
