Update Regarding Kings Of Leon’s Scheduled “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Performance

Kings of Leon will not be performing on Monday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”

Update 2: A representative for ABC confirms that the April 24 “Jimmy Kimmel Live” schedule has changed.

Instead of airing a new episode with Christoph Waltz, the Rube Goldberg winners and Kings Of Leon, the ABC talks how will air a re-run of the episode with Lena Dunham, Eric Stonestreet, Riz Ahmed and Cold War Kids.

“Kimmel” will, in fact, be in re-runs all week.

Headline Planet will provide an update when a new date for the Kings Of Leon performance is announced.
