Jimmy Kimmel has spoken out after George Santos filed a lawsuit accusing him of “deceiving” the scandal-plagued former lawmaker when he paid him to make Cameo videos.
The disgraced former congressman indeed accepted Mr Kimmel’s requests for several Cameo videos, which the late-night host then broadcast on Jimmy Kimmel Live in December in a mocking segment titled: “Will Santos Say It?”
Mr Santos also accused Mr Kimmel of “exploiting the Cameo Videos on national television”.
“And if there’s one thing George Santos will not stand for it’s using a fake name under false pretenses,” Mr Kimmel joked.
