The National Anthem, where we express dissent and send our greatest celebrities to represent the people, hasn’t exactly brought out the best of us these past months. (Save for Pink. Pink had the flu.) For those of us who haven’t been super psyched to be Amurkin lately, let Stephen Colbert and Patrick Wilson, a…
Most of the time you see headlines about a late-night talk show host doing a thing, that thing is making a joke. Totally ROASTING someone or being AHH GOALS AF or gently ruffling an ascending fascist’s toupee. But the most notable line from Stephen Colbert’s latest interview with Bill Clinton isn’t a zinger and…
Though it should come as no surprise that American late-night TV viewers began switching over to Stephen Colbert’s more politically-minded Late Show after his competitor Jimmy Fallon playfully mussed then-Presidential candidate Donald Trump’s hair on Late Night, it wasn’t until reading this report in Vulture than I…
In a pair of stops on his press tour for a novel called—excuse me while I mainline four shots of tequila—Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff: A Novel, Sean Penn behaved like an asshole who skims one nonfiction book a year and uses every single opportunity (usually at parties) to tell people about how essential it was. This…
On Wednesday’s episode of the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, we got a peek into the renowned workout routine of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and it honestly looks pretty hard.
While appearing on Tuesday’s episode of The Late Show, a very exhausted-seeming James Franco was asked by host Stephen Colbert about the many rumors and rumblings regarding his alleged treatment of women that began bubbling up to the surface of our Twitter feeds after his big Golden Globes win Sunday night.
A visibly shaken, self-described “raw” Gayle King talked at length about the allegations of sexual harassment against her friend and former colleague Charlie Rose on last night’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. At the top of her first segment, King said she’d almost canceled the appearance, which had been booked…
The world of comedy is network of people giving each other jobs, promoting one another’s shows, and then giving each other more jobs. Louis C.K. has long benefited from this system, serving as a writer on shows that also employed many men who ended up as late night hosts, who, in turn, helped him promote whatever…
A man who suffered a brief stint as Hugh Hefner’s valet comes forward with his chilling account of the year of 1978-79. He alleges to the New York Post that the job description involved: delivering sex toys covered in semen, vaginal and anal fluids for sterilization; escorting temporarily debilitated sex workers to…
While Cheetos is backpedalling on this morning’s heartless tweets about San Juan’s mayor (or, at least, while somebody’s on the Twitter account manically typing a bunch of nice things about other Puerto Rican officials and #FAKENEWS (which Puerto Rico can’t read because it’s still out of power you idiot)), fuck it!…
Last night, Jessica Williams stopped by The Late Show to promote her upcoming Netflix movie, The Incredible Jessica James, and told Stephen Colbert a charming story about meeting J.K. Rowling, first via Twitter and then in real life. Turns out they share a birthday and they both play the Sims for fun.
Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are on a tour of talking shit about Donald Trump, and they made a stop at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday night.
Oliver Stone appeared on Monday night’s The Late Show to promote his Vladimir Putin documentary and looked every bit uncomfortable as Stephen Colbert questioned the director’s alarmingly unchallenging interview with a dictator.
After over a year of dating, Amy Schumer and furniture designer Ben Hanisch have broken up. In a statement, Schumer’s rep said the two “ended their relationship after thoughtful consideration and remain friends.” That’s bittersweet, but it’s also totally predictable.
Stephen Colbert invited all the old correspondents from The Daily Show with John Stewart on The Late Show Tuesday night, seating them on couches in a morning show formation that Colbert says they would have “made fun of” back when they were just rascally satirists on Comedy Central.
I haven’t checked, but I’m almost certain Shade Court is the only branch of government still standing. If that’s the case, hi, I’m in charge now. This is the new national anthem, healthcare is free, I’ve sent Paul Ryan to Cuba and jalapeño poppers can now be used as currency. This is Judge Brown’s America.
Connie Britton very obviously didn’t want to be on Nashville anymore and she made it happen in a way that assured her character will not be able to return. Unless...
Oprah Winfrey wore a lovely, rich-looking off-the-shoulder look on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to promote her first (shockingly) cookbook, Food, Health, and Happiness: 115 On-Point Recipes for Great Meals and a Better Life, which she insists is “not a diet book.”
Michelle Obama was Stephen Colbert’s guest on Late Night Tuesday, and though she is gracious, funny, and pushing her Let Girls Learn program throughout, Colbert still managed to get a couple of juicy comments about Melania Trump out of her.
Apparently, Stephen Colbert loves asking cast members of the TV show Black-ish what such a bizarre, incomprehensible word could mean. He’s heard “black” before, and the colloquial add-on “ish,” but combined? Luckily for him, Tracee Ellis Ross has both patience and the desire to promote her show.
