Kimmel shares colonoscop­y

-

Jimmy Kimmel’s audience got to see more of the host than usual when he had his first colonoscop­y. The talk-show host brought Katie Couric along for the test, which aired on Tuesday’s show. Couric, who’s husband died of colon cancer, was with him before and after the examinatio­n. Kimmel turned 50 in November, the age the American Cancer Society recommends for the colorectal cancer screening. The exam found no sign of polyps. But Couric joked with Kimmel that keys, toy soldiers and a harmonica were recovered. March is colon cancer awareness month.
