Jimmy Kimmel surprised with Mean Tweets about himself on his birthday

'I thought I saw Jimmy Kimmel at Home Depot. Turns out it was just a sloppy dude with dimples'

Jimmy Kimmel turned 50 on Monday, with his talk show hosting a special episode to honour the host.

However, the surprises held within weren't all treats, as the tables were finally turned on Kimmel - instead of his celebrity buddies reading mean tweets about themselves, they got together to read mean tweets about him.

The segment was littered with stars, with the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Kim Kardashian, Liam Neeson, Jeff Bridges, and Chris Hemsworth all launching into some of the cruellest barbs around.

"This is going to sound fantastic, but I forgot Jimmy Kimmel's name so I googled 'ugly late night talk show host' and I got him, top link," Larry David managed to choke out, through a fit of laughter (there's more, a lot more, of that here).

Kim Kardashian stopped by with a tweet courtesy of her own husband, Kanye West, reading: "Jimmy Kimmel put yourself in my shoes... oh no that means you would have gotten too much good p*ssy in your life."

"Fair point," she commented.
