Rob Ford makes surprise cameo appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's post-Oscars special

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford made a brief cameo on comedian Jimmy Kimmel's post-Oscars special, even tweeting from the set: "Getting ready to walk on set @JimmyKimmelLive #robfordattheoscars #Toronto #LA," with a photo of the tuxedoed mayor standing backstage.

Ford, who was invited to L.A. by the comedian over the weekend and is set to make a full-length appearance on his talk show Monday night, shared the stage with actor Kevin Spacey, who cracked a few jokes at the mayor's expense.

When Kimmel thanked Spacey for sharing his dressing room with Ford, the actor joked that the mayor "threw up all over it."

For his part, Kimmel said that having Ford on his show proves that God does answer prayers.
