Howard Stern revealed on his show that he is great friends with Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman and says he’s really bummed by their sudden split.

Stern told his listeners that he was set to go on vacation with the funny couple this week, but the couple obviously canceled out.

The shock jock says that Kimmel wrote to him and explained,

“Jimmy e-mailed me and said they were going through some tough times. I was so upset I had to go take a walk.”

Stern added that Kimmel told him that the break-up was mutual but that he feels like he “lost his best friend”.

I love Jimmy and Sarah together too! I’m kinda bummed as well. They just seemed like a compatible, crazy couple who liked to have a good time. Bum deal..

Jimmy Kimmel knows true Christmas spirit - he has secretly been paying people on his staff since the start of the WGA strike.

Kimmel has been especially taking care of those who have the lesser paying, more menial jobs. The ones who would no doubt be effed if they lost a job during the holiday season. Senior staffers are also being “taken care of” by ABC.

Kimmel and his staff will not comment on the matter.

Good for Kimmel. Back when I was in my early 20’s and very, very poor, I worked for a dentist who would take off two weeks. I made the least amount of money in the office (I had just gotten into the profession) and was definitely hurt big time by his annual vacation. It’s not like he was going to pay me for that time so I just suffered by working a few days for temp agencies (which is a load of fun -NOT) and donating plasma and shit. Yeah, really! Sad times.

Anyhow, this is why I love Kimmel. I’m not the biggest fan of his late night show, but he is cool. Good for you Jimmy, everyone should be so lucky to have an employer that actually cares.
