"Hi, I'm Matt Damon and I can no longer read the teleprompter without glasses!" Legend. 😆👌🏼

[@HebbleTyson]

Matt is very funny as usual in these roasts of dear friends, and they are very good friends. George is an ideal guy, able to take and land a joke, and he is an extremely talented actor, director, producer etc., etc. Very deserving of this highly prestigious award!

[@riccardolucacapraro2242]

I like Clooney but recently after his wedding and investing so much in liquor business he is not much in film business anymore, Michael Clayton is quite boring now. And Matt Damon, apologies - same face same jokes all the years. You sound like Clooney was writing comments himself.

[@Mediados]

"Hi, I'm Matt Damon and I can no longer read the teleprompter without glasses." The moment you realize you're past 50.

[@kbob9625]

He stole the Presidents stationary and wrote to people. That is hilarious.

[@irock2403]

That's a felony

[@MANUELPEREZ-ub9hv]

Actually, Jimmy Kimmel stole the stationary and gave to Clooney because he knew, he could get away with it, there is an interview where they talked about it.

[@IndomitableT]

@Robin Justice. He is actively taking that possibility into account. Some years ago on The Graham Norton Show he responded that his wife is a good barrister and will get him out.🤷🤭

[@freemagicfun]

I loved the look the President gave him, and he just shrugged & smiled. 😎

[@davidmichael9034]

[@dhammaboy1203]

George and Matt are both classic movie stars!

[@davidw2033]

Brilliant !! What’s not to love about Matt Damon.

[@joemckim1183]

He's a Red Sox fan but otherwise than that nothing.

[@imilliemedina666]

He ripped off people in a Ponzi crypto scam

[@Lucifera1011]

Well, maybe Jimmy Kimmel will tell you something about that.

[@watchman1178]

Other than the fact that he's a 2-bit virtue-signaling Hollywood phony who used to kiss Harvey Weinstein's ass?

[@vermont741]

Matt was fat in Oppenheimer!

[@OO72885]

Genuine friendship...very rare nowadays. I do like George Clooney......but i love Matt Damon!!!!!! Congratulations guys!!!!

[@csandford6011]

Matt Damon what a cool guy. Who rightfully knows how to call the shots. Kudos to you George and many more to come.

[@clannad99germany70]

Matt was so funny, telling and honoring George Cloony, his jokes were even for me as a German soo funny. Always liked both Matt and George as awesome actors and performers.

[@karenmandel4547]

Matt is really very funny, has a lot of class and is so handsome.. hey, George is a lot the same.

[@nanny287]

Matt is also an outstanding actor and writer and should also be a Kennedy Center honoree. Love them both.🎬❤️🎬

[@jazminratzlaff5357]

Always have loved George Clooney, for me he is a true Hollywood superstar and diverse versatile multitalented actor. He is in the league all the top golden age leading gentlemen. His hearty boyish laugh, mischievous sparkly warm brown eyes and voice/ charm is truly the best. Does he ever rock the silver fox look and facial hair. Great hilarious funny speech to his best friend and colleague. Very well deserved Kennedy Center honouree. ❤ ♥️ 😍🥰😘🤩 🌟 ✨ 🥵 🤤 🏆 📺 🎞️ 🎭 🎥 📣🎬👑💎⚜️

[@judychandler8485]

Matt was hilarious 😂

[@bispren_ej28]

What a sweet friendship

[@29cys]

What a beautiful beautiful commendation. Two amazing men secure enough to praise each other in a highly competitive industry.

[@roysoto2715]

Love you Matt Damon ❤️😍😍😘😘😘😘❤️

[@inesrodriguez876]

George Clooney's "Siriana" film... goosebumps ! ✨📽️✨

[@zacherygraham5442]

Maaaat deeaamon! Team America is his finest role

[@timanderson6005]

Yes! The thick as a brick Matt Damon, real life iq 160(Harvard), is inspired.

[@BatmanHQYT]

Matt Damon is the fucking best.

[@ericmanes5154]

Did you really need to say the F word to get your point across?

[@BatmanHQYT]

@@ericmanes5154 I did.

[@natevm7888]

I like how George was able to take the roasting well we all need that from a good friend once in awhile

[@judypasqualone3819]

He’s got to be a blast to be around yet so kind and sincere. Anyone would be lucky to be called George’s friend. I adore him. ❤️

[@mandyuwimana7735]

❤️❤️Matt Damon

[@LukasiMusic]

[@bronwyn117]

Best speech ever!

[@pamelabonaparte9383]

Brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🍾

[@techone8568]

I think we've proven that George Clooney can't fake a laugh.

[@Missjunebugfreak]

Yeah that laugh was super fake but he seemed to enjoy the speech.

[@mariaelenice1459]

Wow!!! Thanks friend🌟🌟🌟🌟😃😃😃

[@keepcharlottecountygreen150]

That speech is classic!

[@clairedisapia]

This was the best of the whole show.

[@mohamedkamar851]

Wao Matt Damon is comedian by nature. Not the first time I discover he is multi talentuous artist.

[@rhondafortson5205]

EXCEPTIONAL Speech, Matt Damon!!

[@deanwalker7216]

Matt Damon - Film Actors Guild.

[@life-is-inspiring3953]

Matt Damon, a class act of a performer, funny, humourous and a gent to boot + a very good movie star🎉😂❤

[@garymclaughin]

Very good.👍

[@hestergreen2031]

George has a wonderful mischievous sense of humor. Some have been treated to his wits. And we are all thankful that he is enjoying his life.

[@vedranaolujic1977]

[@sattar6311]

This award should have been given to Laurence Olivier, Cary Grant, Anthony Hopkins, John Wayne, Charlton Heston, Robert Redford, Paul Newman, Robert Mitchum, Peter O'Toole, Michael Caine.

“HE DEFECATED THROUGH A LITTERBOX!! AND I SAVED HIM! HE’LL NEVER CHANGE!”

Matt Damon is hilarious 😆😂❤🎉

[@katarinajosic3679]

Tačno.

[@treborrobert5674]

aawww.. d legacy dat is d batman.. what an accomplishment 🤣🤣❤❤ enjoyed watching ur movies!!!

[@SuperJNG18]

Of course Matt would make his speech part-roast. Wouldn’t have it any other way!

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

He directed Boys in the Boat. Excellent adaptation of a great book

[@bluesquirrel3919]

I've never gotten through an entire Clooney movie without being bored, but I believe that he's a decent guy. Congrats to you Mr. Clooney.

[@aliarikan]

I’m sure he’d love hearing this.

[@Jimbo-rt3lu]

Ya, that’s about right.

[@gerrydooley951]

name a great George Clooney movie

[@DippyHippie]

How old are you,dear?

[@r.p.mcmurphy6623]

What a phuktardian comment.

[@hestergreen2031]

No better accolades then from friends.

[@cumulusterraticus3446]

A FAMILY IS A FAMILIY IS A FAMILY 😮

[@xw9476tw]

At least he didn't tell us "fortune favors the brave".

[@chrislee1096]

Knew George in Augusta, Kentucky looked like the photo they showed.

[@Ozziemick]

The best movie I enjoyed watching George Clooney in was called The American. He played a hired assissan out to kill and felt sad that he died in the end. Powerful movie by myself in a lonely cinema.

[@artlover1477]

Mick, good call!!! I know a lot of people have not seen it. Show Clooney's range as an actor.

[@Ozziemick]

@@artlover1477 yeah your not wrong there.

[@naomiarram5187]

Maybe don't give away the ending? Just saying

[@Ozziemick]

@@naomiarram5187 I recommend the movie as I felt like watching it again a few times when it came out.

[@naomiarram5187]

@@Ozziemick Great, recommend all you want. All I'm saying is don't ruin it for people who may want to see it.

[@freemagicfun]

Great speech. They seem to actually be friends (or amazing actors and fake it well). As for 6th favorite Batman? Nah, he did a good Bruce Wayne, I would rank 3rd or 4th.

[@shankarbalakrishnan2360]

For u guys the timing it seems to be about the future for me it's always the past❤❤🎉🎉 way in the past

[@SpeakLove369]

0:33 *AND stated so publicly on national tv 🤷‍♂️ 😂

I might have to deficate into a litterbox, that's actually a funny thing.

[@tomace4898]

Matt Damon.

[@johnmat4678]

He was awesome in Team America!

[@summerm5213]

There are 2 men who I love Matt Damon and Dr. Jo Dispenza

[@xijinping_winnie]

In my opinion, Matt Damon is a better actor than Clooney. I have never watched any Clooney movie in full. I just can’t finish them.

[@kirkcorzine3721]

Really,, what has he done that warrants this like stars of the past?

[@hermietagalag6159]

#Super viral reels', 🎯💯🎯 hermie

[@thedeadcanary]

Why do the subtitles read I love you, Don Cheadle at the end?

[@ca8rio8ca]

Homage + a Roast

[@ambargaytan84]

That is our president. 😃🎉🎈 yay!! Joe Biden 🇺🇸🙏☀️

[@NatarajanGanesan]

Aho roopam Aho dhvanihi

[@ferashdaib7674]

one day The Kennedy Center will honor Matt Damon and Jimmi Kimmel will be there to roast him

[@ballistic188]

Coz fortune favors the brave

[@JeremiahsFiles]

Didn’t Big Bird honor George Clooney at the Kennedy Center Honors too? I wish I could see the extra part with Big Bird honoring George Clooney, I saw Big Bird at the beginning where he said, “Art doesn’t care where you’re from or what you look like.”

[@peterpeterson3266]

Clooney owes his entire success to two things: Rosemary his aunt and his good looks. He's rather shallow.

[@___David___Savian]

Jimmy Kimmel must be seething mad seeing Matt Damon get all this air time.

[@notgivennotgiven7776]

Matt Damon

[@paulsolon6229]

Clooney pranked Damon: for a part Damon had to lose weight. Thus his actors clothes naturally wd get baggy on him Clooney stole his clothes took them to tailor and had them taken in. Damon wd come to work hungry and could barely get into his characters clothes. Clever trick

[@user-db1yh3ss7m]

Cashtigoha

[@steveconn]

"I'm Matt Damon."

[@TheonlyLarsNelson]

Why is Amal sitting behind?

[@KS-xk2so]

Bale, Keaton, Patty, Affleck for sure.... but who's 5th? Come on, Kilmer's dead last, we all know it! My man George rides in the 5 spot all god damn day!

[@jonnyharding3646]

Hard not to see Tom Cruise as a true movie satr to be fair

[@wilsonpennychan]

I finally get to know the prank which he mentioned in Graham Norton's show, that he claims the prank will probably get him arrested... lol. Origin of Graham's interview: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJjbZ3-unMyqatk

[@roysoto2715]

Why do not brad pitt roast George Clooney best friend

[@MrPressPhotographer4]

Clooney looks like a younger Dick van dyke.

[@sirjohnmara]

Great TV production to cut to President J.B. (Hm, Biden has the same initials as James Bond I realize now.) When Matt mentioned Bill Clintons stationary memos.

[@jedilady4485]

Where's Brad Pitt?

[@geriawright1292]

Hmmm... the real "joke" of the evening was Brooks spoofing the Empress of Soul🙄🥴😬

[@dariankenney5328]

You have Post 📮😀💭.

[@myrnashoults9735]

I hate how the spouse of the honoree is relegated to the second row, in order to make room for “more important” people

[@imilliemedina666]

FORTUNE FAVORS THE BRAVE. Now give me back my money.

[@198634]

Love clooney but he hasn’t made a decent movie in 20 years ….

[@loooke7197]

George clooney is the last of the true movie stars..? lol. Tom Cruise fits that title far better.

[@allHeueldingse]

but c'looney not dhun!
