On Thursday, Jimmy Kimmel made a surprise announcement: he's taking the summer off.
Kimmel said: 'I've been doing this job for almost 18 years' and he needed a break."
He said he and his family were fine but he wanted to spend some time with them.
The Daily Mail reports that Kimmel wore blackface in The Man Show from 1999-2004 as NBA's Karl Malone.
Jimmy Fallon wore blackface in a skit pretending to be Chris Rock in 2000.
Fallon has apologized for the stunt.
Pressure is mounting on Kimmel to acknowledge that he wore blackface and apologize for wearing it.
