Jimmy Kimmel keeps taking his fellow entertainers down a peg. The ABC late-night host made musicians read “Mean Tweets” on Tuesday, timed to the night’s American Music Awards (AMAs).

Towards the tail-end of the regular bit, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” viewers find out that even metal band Korn can’t stand rockers Nickelback.

“Korn. F–k those guys more than nickelback,” one “Mean Tweet” read.

Pretty good, but the below are our favorites. Each was read by their respective insulted musician(s):
“One of my employees was talking about how the chainsmokers are actually pretty good and don’t deserve all the hate. So I fired him.”

“Why is Jason Mraz the unofficial soundtrack for s–t BBQs?”

“P!ink is aging pretty well for a pig.”

NBC's "Lost"-like vehicle "Manifest" is now second, having averaged 10.4 million overall viewers on its own premiere night. CBS' "God Friended Me" had initially topped that total, though the NFL football-boosted drama adjusted down in final numbers.
