Jimmy Kimmel on Ben Affleck:"Our Love Speaks for Itself"

“Our love speaks for itself,” Kimmel tells Usmagazine.com.

The video — shot last week at L.A.’s Roosevelt hotel and in an L.A. recording studio — became a YouTube sensation after it debuted following the
Oscars early Monday morning.

Kimmel executive producer Jill Leiderman tells Us the idea came from Kimmel and his director and was "completely fueled by revenge" after Kimmel's girlfriend Sarah Silverman released the video "I'm F--king Matt Damon" last month.

"Sarah and Matt's piece aired on a Thursday, and that Friday, Jimmy came into the office and said, 'We have to get to Ben Affleck, like, right away!'" Leiderman tells Us. "So I reached out to his representation, and by Sunday, Ben was locked."

Was Kimmel nervous about smooching Affleck?

"I don't think there was any fear there," Leiderman says. "I think there's nothing but love there."

The clip featured A-listers like Cameron Diaz making obscene gestures and Harrison Ford blowing Affleck and Kimmel a kiss. "Once Jimmy and Ben were ready to come out to the world, they got the support of their famous friends,” Leiderman says.

As for casting Brad Pitt, who plays a deliveryman, Leiderman tells Us, "We needed to include people who would resonate in Matt's life, and Brad seemed like the perfect accomplice."

Rebecca Romijn tells Us she was more than happy to sign on.

“It was so exciting to help celebrate their love for one another,” Romijn tells Us. "They make a beautiful couple.”

Now with their two dueling videos, can Kimmel and Damon ever be friends?

"Jimmy and Matt will reach out to one another," Leiderman jokes, "but right now, emotions are running raw."
