Bill Maher has been in the comedian spotlight for decades and has been the subject of numerous impressions. However, when it comes to impressions of himself that he despises, Kyle Dunnigan’s impression tops Maher’s list. In fact, the “Real Time” star didn’t like Dunnigan’s impression or even found it remotely funny. “Bill Maher doesn’t like that,” Dunnigan said during his interview on the “Life is Short with Justin Long” podcast.
“I know a few people who have shown it [Dunnigan’s impression]’ Dunnigan continued. “A woman came up to me in Whole Foods and said, ‘I had to tell you, I was a flight attendant on a private plane with Bill Maher, and I went up to him and said, ‘Have you seen Kyle Dunnigan’s impression of you?’ And he turned away from me.’ And that’s what her boss told her [she] was not allowed to speak to him and [she] had to sit in the back of the plane the rest of the time and the tip hurt her.”
UFC commentator and socialite Joe Rogan even took offense at Maher’s reaction to Dunnigan’s accurate impression of the “Real Time” host during part of an interview published on JRE Clips. However, Maher took the time to address Dunnigan’s “terrible impression” of himself when Rogan insisted he was watching the impersonation. “We don’t have to look at that,” Maher said in the same interview. “I’m leaving.”
