Jimmy Kimmel always has the last laugh.
Morrissey learned that lesson on Tuesday night, after the former front man for The Smiths canceled his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live at the last minute because he learned the cast of Duck Dynasty would be guest on the same night.
Never one to back away from controversy, Kimmel addressed the cancellation on his show, thanking the band Churchill filling in for Morrissey on such short notice.
Kimmel read the statement Morrissey issued to explain his refusal to appear on the show.
[Morrissey] is a vegan and a staunch animal rights activist, Kimmel explained.
Morrissey stated he could not morally be on a television program where the cast members of Duck Dynasty will also be guests. He added as far as my reputation is concerned I cant take the risk of being on a show alongside people who, in effect, amount to animal serial killers.
Kimmel said Morrissey gave him an ultimatum, saying the comedian had to choose between him and the cast of the A&E show.
While I respect his stance on this-- I really do theres a very good reason why I didnt dump the Duck Dynasty guys for Morrissey, Kimmel said on the air. Its because they have guns, and Morrissey doesnt.
And the late-night host didnt stop there.
He keeps finding new ways to depress us, he quipped of the musician.

And ‘Girlfriend in a Coma’ and ‘Hairdresser on Fire’.. LOL He is really strange, yes.. But a great song writer, composer with catchy melodies.
Okay, I think I thought of the term. It wasn’t
*quadrasexual*. It was *quatrasexual*. Comedian Margaret Cho describes herself as a *quatrasexual*. Morrissey may be odd, but I don’t think he’s having relations with dead people. Don’t want to cast asparagus at him. :)
It’s Cho time in Miami

Johnny Marr provided the musical muscle/ platform for the Smiths.
Your line is awesome!!!!!!!!!! And unbelievably funny. My husband adores The Smiths & I can’t wait to e-mail your line to him. Brilliant!!!!
If it wasn’t for Johnny Marr, nobody would even know who this old queen is.
And don’t knock the females. Florence is a powerhouse:

I have to give the Smiths credit for having the best song titles ever. “Shoplifters of the world unite”, “November spawned a monster”, and “Stop me if you think you’ve heard this one before.”
I have never heard of him before reading this. I don’t believe that I missed anything. But,just from the way he is described here, I thought that he was a queer.
Just WTF were the Smiths?
Fantastic alternative 80’s band. If you only listened to the radio you never would have heard of them...or of most of the great music in the 80’s for that matter which was never played on radio and the closest mainstream outlet was on 120 Minutes on MTV.
What havs jackasses done to you?
I’m so glad you took the time to provide me your opinion on someone you don’t care about and don’t know anything about. Thanks!
It was a brand of English automobile dashboard instruments ued in cars like MG's and so forth, if I recall...
So I goggled him. The funny part is the response at youtube was for this video - with an ad running for Duck Dynasty
Oh year. Don't forget "Bigmouth Strikes Again", "Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others" and my personal favorite "Girlfriend in a Coma" :-)
Thanks for my first laughs of the day. “what’s he h...ing the rocks for?”
LOL! Most depressing happy sounding songs in music...
That brings back memories of WOXY which was just beyond reception range where I lived. Once you got it tuned in no one could move (even the person playing with the antenna) or else it would fade out again.
10,000 Maniacs would give them competition.
Hey, nice tune. What are the lyrics about?(listens carefully)
Well apparently dying in a WW I poison gas attack.
