Comedian Jimmy Kimmel says he nearly got sick from nerves before headlining the White House Correspondents' Dinner in April. According to Parade: On September 23, Jimmy Kimmel will host the Emmy Awards and had a high-profile warm up of sorts this spring when he hosted the 2012 White House Correspondents' Dinner. "I almost threw up that afternoon," Kimmel said at the ABC upfronts on Friday. "That audience is very different and I didn't know whether they would laugh or get angry. Ultimately I think they did both." He joked that what he learned from the experience was that "the president is a little funnier than I am." More from Politico’s Click.
