The Kanye West and Jimmy Kimmel feud meme stems from a legendary 2013 conflict where Kanye launched an explosive, all-caps Twitter tirade against the late-night host. The spark was a Kimmel sketch that mocked Kanye’s intense BBC Radio 1 interview with Zane Lowe using children to reenact the dialogue. Kanye’s legendary response—featuring phrases like 'JIMMY KIMMEL IS OUT OF LINE'—became a cultural touchstone for celebrity meltdowns. The meme template is typically used to contrast someone being overly serious or sensitive with someone who is just trying to make a joke, perfectly encapsulating the friction between celebrity ego and public parody.
