Watch Jimmy Kimmel’s “Donda” Ad For Kanye West’s New Company
Fri Jan 6 2012 by Erika Brooks Adickman
If you're up on Kanye's latest tweets (or Idolator's inaugural Hype Index), you know that Yeezy World Peace is attempting to cook up some big (albeit nebulous) things in 2012. Among them: Donda, a design company that is recruiting "amazing powerful smart talented wealthy people," and that is named in honor of his late mother. Late night host Jimmy Kimmel knows that even the greatest of companies need branding, so he gave the rapper his very own Donda commercial. And though the clip doesn't include Kanye's absurd Jetsons tour tweet, it's still as confusing as 'Ye's company. Watch below. More »

Is it just us or did cover girl Kelly Rowland's fantastic pair of legs seem to look even longer on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night?
