Jimmy Kimmel's Publicist Swears The Kanye Feud Is 'Real And Spectacular'

Jimmy Kimmel is known for pulling pranks, but his publicist Lewis Kay assures Business Insider that the late night show host's epic Twitter feud with Kanye West is "totally legit."

Kay got so many emails asking about the recent rant that he took to Twitter to confirm its validity:

Many emails asking me if this @jimmykimmel/@kanyewest feud is real. I assure you it is real and it is spectacular.

Kay is clearly of the belief that any publicity is good publicity, jokingly asking West to tweet at some of his other clients:

Kimmel's wife and show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" co-head writer, Molly McNearney, is also tweeting about the incident:

So you guys saw that Kanye stuff too? I woke up certain it was all a crazy dream.

.@jdharm I couldn't be happier. Jimmy is like a kid in a Kanye store.

Can someone please explain this whole Kanye thing to my mom before she leaves me a seven minute voicemail four days from now?

Meanwhile, Kimmel hasn't tweeted since last night, when he last posted:
