Quotes

"Jimmy's a funny guy, and I have to admit the Affleck idea is pretty insane. Besides, who would [turn] down the chance to do some homoerotic song that has Brad Pitt in it?"—Pete Wentz¹

"Hearing a gospel choir and 20 celebrities singing this song about Jimmy and Ben f---ing each other was the most resonant, rich sound, bellowing and bouncing off the walls of the recording studio — it was a religious experience."—Jill Leiderman, Jimmy Kimmel Live executive producer¹
