The Slap wasn't the only target of Jimmy's opening monologue (via TooFab)
Yes, Kimmel did address"the slap," but impressively showed far more restraint than we expected, holding off on the dominant moment from last year's show until the final moments of his monologue. Before that, he was positively tame!
His first joke was as gentle as they come, quipping that it was nice to see Nicole Kidman"has finally been released from that abandoned AMC where she's been held captive for two full years now." He then told her,"Thank you for encouraging people who were already at the movie theater to go to the movie theater."
