Jeffrey Epstein List Sparks Jimmy Kimmel Feud
Late-night TV talk show host Jimmy Kimmel recently began feuding with Aaron Rodgers. And the battle became more intense over Kimmel’s alleged connections to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.
As a result, a video of Jimmy spending time with Epstein’s personal chef has resurfaced and gone viral per MSN.
However, Kimmel has slammed NFL star Aaron Rodgers for his remarks amid an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show. That episode included Rodgers weighing in on Epstein. And the New York Jets quarterback discussed the infamous list of individuals linked to the convicted pedophile.

However, then Rodgers stated, “A lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, are hoping that doesn’t come out.” And the NFL star promised to pop “some sort of bottle” when the list became public.
Epstein died by suicide during his custody prior to his trial for federal conspiracy and sex trafficking charges. The disgraced financier previously went behind bars for procuring sex with an underage girl. And last month, a judge approved the public release of a list revealing more than 150 individuals included in court documents from a now-settled 2015 civil lawsuit filed by Virginia Giuffre.
That lawsuit focused on allegations that Epstein’s associate and former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell facilitated her sexual abuse. Maxwell continues to serve a 20-year prison sentence for assisting Epstein. And those charges include the recruitment and sexual abuse of underage girls.

However, after Rodgers made his comments, Kimmel turned to social media to react. And the late-night TV talk show host stated that he did not have “any contact whatsoever with Epstein. Nor will you find my name on any ‘list’ other than the clearly-phony nonsense that soft-brained wackos like yourself can’t seem to distinguish from reality,” added Jimmy.
And he issued a threat. “Your reckless words put my family in danger. Keep it up and we will debate the facts further in court,” warned Kimmel.
However, a video went viral of Kimmel spending time with Epstein’s personal chef, Adam Perry Lang. But although the chef and late-night TV talk show reportedly enjoyed a solid friendship, no connections between Kimmel and Epstein emerged.
But in addition to the viral video, the comment accompanying it trended on social media. And it read, “Jimmy Kimmel and his bff Adam Perry Lang who was Jeffrey Epstein’s personal chef for years.” However, the video revealed Lang and Kimmel at the chef’s new restaurant.
Jimmy Kimmel Forms Friendship With Jeffrey Epstein’s Chef
And Kimmel explained that the two met when Lang appeared on his show. The chef’s history includes an arrest on Kimmel’s property in 2019. Police had reacted to a report about a man who allegedly shot his girlfriend with a rifle and planted several bombs around the house.
However, Kimmel was not at the property at the time. And police did take Lang into custody. But a spokesperson for Kimmel and Lang’s attorney alleged that the incident came from a fake 911 call made from someone “absolutely not Adam Perry Lang.”
And attorney Glen T. Jonas added, “Mr. Lang will be cleared of any wrongdoing. He was fast asleep with his ringer off. He immediately cooperated once he was notified of the commotion.” And in the wake of that incident, Lang revealed his role in assisting New York prosecutors in their investigations into Epstein’s sex ring.
“Meanwhile, Mr. Lang has begun a course of fully cooperating with the federal authorities investigating this case,” stated Lang’s attorney, Lawrence Lustberg. “He, like them and like the victims, wants only that justice be done.” And Lang himself stated, “We have absolutely always been available to the attorneys for the lawyers representing the victims.”
