Fans have noticed Jimmy Kimmel getting flustered in the past. One of those moments took place alongside Tim Allen when the actor got honest about attending Trump's inauguration. However, Gal Gadot might be the front-runner for flustering Jimmy Kimmel the most…
In the following, we're going to take a look back at what took place between Kimmel and Gadot. Kimmel was discussing the harsh realities of comic book fans. However, Gadot had a response Kimmel clearly wasn't ready for.
We'll take a look back at what was said, and how Kimmel reacted. We'll also reveal the context behind Gadot's response. It seemed like she was taking a shot at comic book fans.
Let's take a closer look at what went down.
Jimmy Kimmel Was Flustered After Gal Gadot Randomly Brought Up Her "Chest"
The interview got off to a promising start with Gal Gadot commenting on Jimmy Kimmel's pronunciation of her name. She also gave fans a little more details about the origins of her last name. It was all going smoothly… then the interview took a turn nobody was expecting, and that's especially true for Jimmy Kimmel.
The host says, "I have to say, I have seen the movie, and I know how seriously comic book nerds take this kind of stuff because I am one of them." Gadot interjects, "Really? What do you think about my breasts?"
Kimmel was instantly taken aback. He answers, "What!" Gadot was referencing comic book fans allegedly commenting on the size of her chest compared to the comic book Wonder Woman. However, Kimmel clearly didn't see the story.
"They look great, both of them," Kimmel replies. Gadot says, "I was joking and it might be a bad joke. I thought you were leading to the fact that a lot of the fans had a lot to say about my breasts."
Kimmel clearly had no idea, despite Gadot thinking otherwise. The only thing Kimmel took exception to was the fact that Gadot didn't have the original Wonder Woman costume.
The moment went viral online and has over 24 million hits on YouTube. Fans didn't mind the awkward moment, and actually appreciated Gadot making Jimmy Kimmel sweat a bit.

So how did Gadot take the criticism? In the best way possible. She had an awesome response to her chest being too small for Wonder Woman.
Gadot was amused by the chatter.
"They said that I was too skinny and my boobs were too small… When I was younger I would take criticism really hard. But now it mostly amused me. The true amazons had one boob so it won’t bother them in their archery. So it’s not going to be like real amazons. We always try to make everyone happy but we can’t."

Gadot discussed Wonder Woman with Interview Magazine. “No matter what you do, you can never please them all,” Gadot said. “People will always have something to say because that’s the way people are. And it’s okay. But for me, it’s my job. It’s my career. It’s my art. Whatever I do, I take it very seriously and I do my research and I give it my best. I just want to be able to shine and inspire people.”
Ultimately, the opportunity and team she was surrounded by was most important for Gadot during her journey as Wonder Woman.
“Oh, my God, I’m so excited about this role,” Gadot said. “I feel like I’ve been given a huge opportunity to inspire people, not only women. And not because of me but because of who Wonder Woman is and what she stands for. There’s a lot of responsibility. But I have the best team and the best people to work with. It’s going to be an amazing ride, knock on wood.”
She continues, "I didn’t want to do the obvious role that you see in Hollywood most of the time, which is the heartbroken girl who’s waiting to be rescued by the guy, blah, blah, blah. I wanted to do something different. Little did I know that I would land Wonder Woman not long after.”
The role did exactly what Gadot wanted, and completely changed her career trajectory.
