Vice President Harris is going live in late-night — and sitting down with one of former President Trump’s favorite TV host targets — with an appearance next week on Jimmy Kimmel’s ABC show.
The VP is booked as a guest on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Tuesday, ITK has confirmed.
The interview with Kimmel will mark Harris’s first time on the late-TV talk show as vice president; she previously appeared on the program in 2019.
Harris has rarely dipped her toes in the late-night waters. She made her late-night network TV debut as vice president on NBC’s “Late Night” in 2022.
The sit-down with Kimmel comes after a public, long-running war of words between the comedian and Trump was reignited following last month’s Academy Awards.
During the ceremony, Kimmel, who was hosting the Hollywood awards show, responded on live television to the ex-commander in chief’s criticism of him.

“Has there ever been a worse host than Jimmy Kimmel at the Oscars?” Kimmel, reading Trump’s social media post, said to the audience.
Kimmel then quipped of the former president, “Isn’t it past your jail time?”
Trump later knocked Kimmel’s intelligence, while the 56-year-old Emmy Award winner expressed a “love” for the ongoing feud.
