Jimmy Kimmel has ridiculed Melania Trump and the upcoming Amazon documentary with a three-word jab at the film.
The talk show host mocked Melania, who had compared the importance of the upcoming film to Michael Jackson and The Rolling Stones. Melania, during an appearance at the New York Stock Exchange, said, “Visual storytelling and beautiful music create memories for a lifetime. What do you remember when you hear The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson?”
Kimmel blasted the First Lady for her comparison between the Brett Ratner-directed documentary and musicians like The Rolling Stones and Mick Jagger. He said, “Are you really trying to tell us this dumb vanity project, this corporate bribe is a work of art we’re going to remember like the music of Rolling Stones and Michael Jackson.
“I mean, the only thing that reminds me of Michael Jackson is when it’s bad, it’s bad. You know it, and it’s bad.” Kimmel went on to share his surprise at crew members taking their names off of the credits to the film.
He said, “Two thirds of the crew that shot the movie in New York asked to have their names removed from the credits. Do you have any idea how bad a movie has to be for a crew member to not want a credit?
“Like remember that weird Cats movie from like five or six years ago? Everyone got their credits on that one. People keep their credits on Matt Damon movies.”
Insiders confirmed some crew members had taken their names off of the film, while others called the working conditions on the project a chaotic experience. One insider, speaking to Rolling Stone, said, “People were worked really hard. Really long hours, highly disorganized, very chaotic.”
Another added that the shoot “wasn’t easy money. It was very difficult because of the chaos that was around everything. … Usually [for a documentary] it’s like, ‘Oh, follow the subject.’ Well, it’s Melania Trump. With the first lady and Secret Service, you can’t just do things you usually do.”
Another source suggested they hope the film does not perform well. They said, “Unfortunately, if it does flop, I would really feel great about it.”
