Last night, in an attempt to capitalize on having the Oscars as a lead-in, ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel unleashed his long-awaited rebuttal to girlfriend Sarah Silverman's claim that she was "fucking Matt Damon": Kimmel, it seems, is now "fucking Ben Affleck."

It's a pretty inspired capstone to the long-running fake Kimmel-Damon feud, which started when Kimmel made a point of announcing at the end of each show, "Apologies to Matt Damon, but we've run out of time," and escalated when Damon threw a fake tantrum after finally being brought on the show as a guest, only to be cut off. Among the willing participants, from what we could tell: Harrison Ford, Brad Pitt, Lance Bass, Don Cheadle, Robin Williams, Cameron Diaz, Pete Wentz, the Madden brothers, Macy Gray, Joan Jett, Meat Loaf, and Josh Groban on the keys.
