Lightning's Tyler Johnson denies even knowing cheating woman from 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' interview (VIDEO)

Tyler Johnson made an unexpected — and now we know unwanted — cameo on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Monday night — and he is pretty mad about it.


A segment on the show asked people on Hollywood Boulevard to name the most impressive thing they’ve done, and one giggling blond revealed that she scored with the Tampa Bay Lighting center without her boyfriend ever knowing about it.

Until now.

“It’s an old boyfriend, not the one I’m with now,” the woman says. “... Sorry, Ben.”


The attractive young lady admits that the thing she is most proud of is cheating on an old boyfriend and him not finding out. Well, at least she was impressed by it.

When asked who she cheated with, the woman responds that it was a hockey player for Florida. Then she corrects herself and says Tampa Bay.

She then says the player's initials are T.J. When the interviewer guesses Tyler Johnson, she becomes flustered and clams up.

“OK, I have to go,” she said with a laugh.


On Tuesday, Erik Erlendsson of the Tampa Tribune tweeted a response from Johnson:


Even Kimmel seemed surprised by the woman’s unabashed admission of the fling.

“Sorry, Tyler,” apologized the host.

But if that's the most impressive thing she's ever done, I wouldn't worry about it Tyler.

NYC mayor Bill de Blasio sings 'I Love L.A.' after losing Stanley Cup bet (VIDEO)

New York City mayor Bill de Blasio humbly warbled Randy Newman's "I Love L.A." on the late-night talk show "Jimmy Kimmel Live" Monday night — settling a bet with Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti after the Rangers lost to the Kings in the NHL finals.

"He lost the bet, and now he's going to pay," Kimmel said before de Blasio's performance.

De Blasio wore an "I love LA" T-shirt for his appearance and sang alongside 10 children from the 52nd Street Project arts program, broadcast live to Kimmel and Garcetti in Los Angeles via satellite from Times Square.



"Jimmy, I always wanted to meet you, but not like this, man," de Blasio said, later joking that he was in a "hostage situation." 

"We in New York honor our bets, but I don't have that great a singing voice."

The mayor and the kids conveniently skipped the verse that criticized New York City as cold and damp.


"Mayor de Blasio, you look like a counselor at the worst camp ever," Kimmel joked.



But real New York fans know De Blasio is a Massachusetts native, who was raised as a fan of the Boston Red Sox and New England Patriots.

Pistons' dancing usher and 11-year-old rival resume dance-off on Jimmy Kimmel (VIDEO)

The spontaneous rivalry between the Detroit Pistons dancing usher and the 11-year-old kid who took him on during a time-out dance-off last month at The Palace was resumed on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Tuesday night.




Fifth-grader Antwain Alexander and the 46-year-old Shannon Sails recreated their impromptu dance-cam battle for the late night talk show host after video of their original face-off attracted more than 7 million views.

The pair wore the same outfits for Tuesday's  rematch and once again moved to Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock's "I Wanna Rock."

Audience reaction once again resulted in a tie and Kimmel complimented both on their skills, saying, "That was some great dancing."

While he feigned animosity that his dancing showcase had been stolen by the youngster, Sails reminded viewers that 'I'm an usher first, and I dance.'




The energetic Alexander said he’s "a mix" of child and dancer — and claims that since he was launched to fame last month, the kids at school can’t get enough of his dancing skills.

"It was crazy," he said about the reaction at school.

Speaking about how other students reacted, Antwain said, "I went to school on Wednesday and it was crazy!"

"You haven’t been to school since Wednesday?" Kimmel shot back. "It’s a good thing you’re a good dancer."

LA Kings appear on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' and let host drink from Stanley Cup

A night after winning the first Lord Stanley Cup in the 45-year history of the club, the Los Angeles Kings appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and let the host drink some beer from the esteemed trophy.

The subdued (hungover?) squad appeared— wearing Kings' jerseys— on the show Tuesday night and, after Kevin Westgarth prompted Kimmel to take a swig of beer from the huge chalice, the host asked, "You guys didn't pee in this thing?"

After defenseman Willie Mitchell poured the brew down Kimmel's throat and even more over his suit, Kimmel proclaimed, "It tastes like victory."



Kimmel— a real hockey fan— goofed around with the team and mentioned that all the players will get their name engraved into the Cup before asking if the New Jersey Devils' player Steve Bernier would get his name etched on the trophy too.    Bernier was criticized for his five-minute major for boarding  Rob Scuderi and allowing the Kings to jump out to a three-goal lead the Devils couldn't overcome.

The eighth-seeded Kings won their first championship by crushing the Devils 6-1 Monday night to take the championship series four games to two.

Now each player from the winning team will get to keep the trophy for one day and eat or drink whatever they want from its bowl for 24 hours.

I'm betting on a lot of Molson and kid's cereals.

Adam Carolla is the LA Kings' biggest 'fan'

Comedian Adam Carolla visited his old pal on the "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" show last night dressed in full Los Angeles Kings gear— including pads, helmet and on rollerblades— to show support for his "favorite" team.

Taking a jab at Los Angelelans— or whatever they're called— coming out of the woodwork during the Kings playoff run and hockey fever takes over the city, the Crank Yanker told Kimmel— his former co-host on "The Man Show"— he's "not  bandwagon guy."

"I was always talking about the Kings," Carolla joked.  "Hell to the no Jimmy.  I've been a King-natic, I call it, for many years."



When Kimmel quizzed the Kings "biggest fan" about the identity of the Kings' #32 on the back of Carolla's jersey, his guest got flustered and said, "Guy... Guy Robatusin?  Kobe?"

Carolla then squirted his face with water from a bottle.

"That was unnecessary," laughed Kimmel— who seemed a little confounded by Carolla's newfound loyalty to the Kings.

"It's weird, because when ever we'd work together on the radio, I'd go to Kings games all the time, and you really never came with me," Kimmel said.



"I was always talking about the Kings," Carolla responded before telling a touching story about how his father used to take little Adam to Kings games at the Staples Center.  One problem, Kimmel pointed out, the arena opened in 1999— when Carolla was 35-year old "boy."

Carolla's "favorite" team lost last night to the New Jersey Devils, 3-1.  I wonder how many Kings fans jumped off the bandwagon already.

It was probably about the black and white hockey jerseys anyway.
