Actor-comic Anthony Anderson wrapped up his week as guest host of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” with dig at Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who debuted an eyebrow-raising new look at the Republican National Convention.
“It’s OK, Matt,” Anderson cracked, as he rolled footage of Gaetz speaking at the event. “There’s nothing wrong with trying to look as young as the girls you date.”
Anderson quickly hedged.
“Allegedly!” he said. “Allegedly! I don’t wanna get sued on my last day here!”
The House Ethics Committee is investigating Gaetz over a number of allegations, including sexual misconduct and illicit drug use, with former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) last month saying Gaetz should be “convicted.”
“You can’t sleep with underage women and think you can get away with it,” McCarthy said.
Gaetz has denied the allegations.
Anderson on Thursday also thanked the audience for his week at the show ― and then delivered a warning to Kimmel.
“I’ll be back to guest host when Donald Trump gets reelected and sends Jimmy to Guantanamo Bay,” he said.
