Jimmy Kimmel prepares for Mother's Day by reminding us that our moms have secrets, too
YouTube


Just about every late-night talk show has its man-on-the-street interview segment, but Jimmy Kimmel sends his crews out to talk with the people more often than his peers. Sometimes it's mean-spirited, sometimes it's funny. In this segment, the Jimmy Kimmel Live crew prepare us for Mother's Day by asking real moms about the most shocking thing their kids don't know about them. Amazingly, enough mothers answered to produce this quirky homage to the women who brought us into the world. --Peter Weber
