Jimmy Kimmel forgot to share Oscars news to family

TV personality Jimmy Kimmel's parents came to know about the news of him hosting the 2017 Oscars ceremony when they read the news online because the popular talk show host forgot to tell them.

During an interview to Entertainment Toinght, Kimmel said, "I forgot to tell my parents, and then they found out online. So, that's probably the best feedback I got."

When announcing his double good news earlier this week, as he is also expecting a baby with his wife, Kimmel joked he'd achieved two things he never expected possible when he was a teenager.

"My wife is hosting a baby inside her body. So that's what's coming. So, there's a lot of exciting stuff going on. Congratulations to me. I'm hosting the Oscars and I had sex. Two things as a teenage boy I never thought would be possible.
