Jimmy Kimmel Tests Positive for COVID Again, Taps John Mulaney and Andy Samberg to Host Live!

Jimmy Kimmel has tested positive for COVID-19 again.

Not long after recovering from his early May diagnosis, Kimmel revealed on Twitter Tuesday that he's once again testing positive. Because of this, he is tapping John Mulaney and Andy Samberg to guest host Jimmy Kimmel Live! in his place.

"I'm such a positive person, I tested positive AGAIN. I am feeling fine," he said. "The great John @Mulaney & Andy Samberg @TheLonelyIsland have graciously agreed to host @JimmyKimmelLive for me tomorrow."

Kimmel, 54, disclosed his initial COVID-19 diagnosis on Twitter and Instagram on May 2. At the time, he said comedian Mike Birbiglia would host in his absence.

"Our daughter brought us covid (even though we specifically asked her not to)," Kimmel joked.
