Stephen Colbert has panned claims by President Donald Trump's physician that men in his age group benefit from MRI scans as scrutiny around the president's health intensifies, with the Late Show host prescribing his own medicine for the commander-in-chief: Retiring!
During the red carpet for the GQ Man of the Year party ( note: this is not a party for the Lorde song), How Long Gone podcast hosts Jason Stewart and Chris Black asked Colbert the questions we were dying to know the answers to, like how much money he has in his 401k after retiring ("By retiring, you mean firing") and if he was going to grow a beard like David Letterman ("I am going to stop waxing from the neck down.").
I worked this up for you because I wanted to thank you, personally and publicly for all you did for me for these past nine and a half years, Midler told Colbert on Tuesday. And I mean this from the bottom of my heart, I would not I'm going to cry I would not have made it through without you. I really wouldn't have. You're a voice of sanity and reason and, most important, honor.
Scotty Bristol, is a successful late-night host/miserable human being played by outgoing host of The Late Show and national treasure Stephen Colbert. Scotty is a real prince: He's nasty and ungracious to his staff, doesn't bother to prepare for interviews with his guests, and torments his writers by making sure they can see and hear him shredding their joke pitches.
With that announcement on Sunday night from 7-time Emmy award winning actor Bryan Cranston, the crowd at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles went absolutely wild. For nearly a full minute, the audience celebrated Colbert as the CBS late night host and members of his team made their way to the stage. Stephen! Stephen! The crowd chanted as the Late Show with Stephen Colbert won the Emmy for Outstanding Talk Show Sunday night, its first victory in the category after eight straight losses.
Colbert has continued being political following the announcement, knocking Paramount as morally bankrupt over their settlement with Trump. He took that show, which was a great platform in nighttime television at the Ed Sullivan Theater, and completely drove it into the ground, Kelly argued on her show.
