In September, Vanity Fair ran a story in which 10 male late-night hosts were featured and referred to as, “all of the titans of late night television.” As expected, the internet blew up at the lack of women in the portrait, especially the absence of one particular fixture from late night TV. Samantha Bee, a longtime…
Perhaps you stumbled across a new and conspicuous Vanity Fair spread today. You know, the one featuring a photograph of all of the current late-night television hosts. You might even have noticed a striking similarity uniting said hosts. If you look closely, you’ll see that—I know this is a surprise—they’re ALL male!…
Amy Schumer’s sketch from her show Inside Amy Schumer parodying the inane dynamic between late night television hosts and their female guests seems to have struck a nerve. So to bring it all full-circle, she discussed the bit on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Thursday night, denying that it had been about any one host in…
David Letterman is leaving this earth (rather, he’s leaving television, which is reportedly worse). As he does so, his biggest fans are coming by The Late Show to say goodbye. On Wednesday night, that meant a visit from Julia Roberts, who reminisced about how scared she was to visit Dave during her first appearance…
Here’s Amy Lake Blively giggling, sexily squirming, and sharing inane “fun facts” about herself during an appearance on late night television host Cliffley’s show. For his part, Cliffley appropriately fawned and drooled over Amy Lake while threatening to divorce/kill his wife Darflyn. Yup, it’s the too real time of…
Whitney Cummings, female, guest-hosted The Late Late Show last night. It would appear that no one died.
The Voyager, Jenny Lewis's new album, was produced by Ryan Adams, and he's been touring a bit with her and performing her track "She's Not Me" himself, so it was only a matter of time that they'd join each other on a stage where the masses could view them together. That happened Thursday night on Jimmy Kimmel Live!,…
Despite the fact that Emma Stone just learned what a selfie was "a couple months ago" (???), she and David Letterman looked like true professionals on Monday night, as they cuddled up and took a few together. It's so beautiful to see two people helping one another learn about new technologies.
Surprise surprise: the guest hosts replacing Craig Ferguson after he leaves The Late Late Show in December and before new host James Corden joins in March have been announced, and as of right now, they are all men.
We all know that Lorde and Taylor Swift's relationship started, in Lorde's words, over "thick-ass milkshakes" at Shake Shack. But as Lorde explained to Jimmy Fallon Tuesday night, it developed further at a Grammy party after some rando confused Lorde for Taylor Swift's manager. The two women went along with it, and,…
Listening to people talk about their pets is normally very dull, but, Amy Sedaris and David Letterman managed to do just that on Monday night and charm the pants off everyone. Letterman has a new dog, which Amy found very weird, because he already has a dog (two is too many, apparently). All was revealed though:…
David Letterman will be leaving late night television soon, which prompted the Paley Center to organize a conversation with the writers of his show this weekend. During the discussion, head writer Matt Roberts tried to explain why The Late Show's writers room has historically been chock full of white men. He couldn't…
Chelsea Handler, the only woman currently hosting a late night television show, left late night, sort of, on Tuesday evening. She went out with a bang, gathering Fergie, Tim Gunn, Avril Lavigne, Dave Grohl, Gwen Stefani, Gerard Butler, Justin Theroux and dozens of other celebrities to sing a song about how great and…
Taylor Swift — chanteuse, actress and outspoken lover of crafts — stopped by The Tonight Show last night to talk about recent projects and (at her request) appear in Jimmy Fallon's recurring "Ew!" sketch as Natalie, a dorky tween who loves unicorns, glitter and building castles out of popsicle sticks. If the character…
When NBC announced last May that their next late night host would be Seth Meyers, reaction ranged from Yay, I love him to Meh to Great, another white guy. While Meyers looks like most everyone who has hosted before him, the next generation of late night hosts are quietly ushering in diversity. We just don't see it…
