Jimmy Kimmel Calls Ex Sarah His 'Best Friend'

Jimmy Kimmel pal Howard Stern says he's spoken to the late-night talk-show host and that Jimmy says he feels like he's "lost his best friend," since he broke up with comedienne Sarah Silverman.

Jimmy and Sarah were regular guests on Howard's Sirius Satellite Radio show and often vacation with Howard and fiance Beth Ostrosky. Howard says Jimmy emailed him to say the couple was "going through some tough times." The two announced their split on Monday.

Today, Sarah's musical spoof, which she made for Jimmy, "I'm Effing Matt Damon," was nominated for an Emmy for Original Music and Lyrics. Jimmy responded to that video earlier this year with his own jab, "I'm Effing Ben Affleck."
