Stephen chats with Amy Schumer about that Katie Couric cell phone prank and Amy's glamorous life. Plus, they offer sincere apologies to their former teachers.
+cjxked12 He's actually an extremely smart guy...with enough wit, intelligence and confidence to interview people like Neil Tyson Degrasse. He could go back and forth with the smartest people in the world, and any seasoned politician. Fallon is just a successful comedian that worked his way up. They're not in the same league.
***** I disagree, i'm pointing out a change in interview styles. Letterman gave up caring years ago and we were left with the likes of Fallon, Kimmel etc.
+cjxked12 I haven't watched Fallon, Kimmel, Conan or anyone else since Colbert debuted. And I don't intend to. Finally, I have a reason to watch CBS. It does feel a little weird, though.

This is not the Stephen Colbert from the Colbert Report.. Yet I'm still completely fine with that.. This man is a natural television personality.. Very smooth in his interviews and just cool and funny.. I'm enjoying the new Tonight Show.
AttilatheThrilla if you watch the tonight show you can tell he relies WAY more on the games/ game shows to entertain the audience (because he sucks as an interviewer), while the Late Show (for how short Colbert has been on it) is pretty much same old same old interviewing blah blah blah.

She makes fun of herself all the time, and puts herself out on the line for the world to see that she's normal. She's not a model, she's 33, she's a comedian, and upcoming actress. Stress could be the reason and y'all calling her fat is messed up... I love her realism. Rebel Wilson wears sleeveless shirts, she's been famous for over 4 years and hasn't lost weight. Love them both. Flip my middle finger to the haters. Some people can't work out 4 hours a day or even 30 (if you're famous). ✌🏻️
+emily blunt I love how people call Amy Schumer fat in the comments of all of her interviews but in Rebel Wilson's you don't see any. Rebel Wilson is huge compared to Amy so it's messed up. Amy is thick, curvaceous. Love it.
+Gared Tuttle . amy shumer has like 25% bodyfat. that is fat, not curvy. you wanna see curvy? look up a young kim kardashian. or even sofia vergara (present and past)
+shuarma0 25% of body fat is still within the healthy range. Not everyone has the desire to look like a top athlete ja have a washboard stomach. As long as she eats mostly healthy stuff, gets enough sleep and exercises, she's just fine.

Stephen Colbert said "I never did anything in high school, did homework like 5 times" Yeah right the dude went to Northwestern currently ranked 12th best university in the Nation tied with Dartmouth, and ahead of Brown, Cornell, Vanderbilt, and UC Berkeley.
He didn't get into Northwestern straight from high school though - he went to some fairly minor college for two years where, as he tells it, he finally started studying hard and did well enough to be able to transfer to Northwestern after that.
+Jacob Zumo Looks like he's finding his stride in late night, and I'm glad to see it. Seems to often take new hosts a few weeks -- 4 days is relatively quick.
+Sarah Dirar Which world do you live in??? American fat people are monstrous in other countries. Fat people in other countries will be considered mildly chubby in America.
+faterock9876543 I come from Sudan. Like some women in the west exercise and get surgery to lose weight, women in Sudan take pills to gain weight. Amy is a gorgeous woman with a curvy body. I'm skinny and I wish I had her body.
+Heather Doman I don't mind that she embraces her weight - it's awesome but this outfit DOES NOT fit her. Just because it zips up….does not mean it fits, Amy.
+Domn8tr 19 just because some of us find her funny doesn't mean it's because of feminism or because she's a woman.. comedy is subjective, some people like it, some people don't.
+Domn8tr 19 So not true. Women have opinions and ranges in what they like and dislike. Like Alyssa says, just cause any artist/comedian/singer or whatever is female doesn't make them feminist, first off, and also doesn't immediately make them likeable by ALL women. That's naive. Women like male and female comedians for all kinds of reasons. Why is it such a strange concept to men that women make up their own mind about what they like/don't like? I think Amy's awesome, but I don't love all her stand up bits, just like I love Louis CK or Chris Rock but can take or leave some of their works. There are plenty of women are are so-called 'icons' but not all women find them to be icons for their own individual existences, or all men for that matter. It is a matter of taste and opinion. Feminism is super simple - equal opportunity - not men above women or vice versa. Using feminism as a tactic to shut down a female comedian who's work as an artist is going to be subjective makes you the blind one to what feminism even is. Feminism isn't simply BEING a woman in the mainstream getting a lot of attention that happens to include sex humour in her work. Feminism is much more diverse than that and much more substantial. And Amy Schumer is admirable for simply pursing what she loves and doing well at it in an incredibly difficult business and arm form. Why hate on her? I don't love Lady Gaga's work on many levels, but I don't HATE her and I don't use feminism as a way to cloud my judgement of her. If Amy Schumer is not your thing, dude, just leave it be but never assume all women are so naive as to blindly worship someone JUST because of their gender, that's super ignorant.
I didnt even know who amy was, I heard a skit on tik-tok and now im here watching all her interviews, she makes cry with laughter, I know love her. She almost looks like the main character from game of thrones

Many women love Amy because she says the things they've wanted to say for a very long time. Not just about guys but about themselves. She cuts through the crap. And what a talent she has for nailing guys' insecurities. Most don't get the point, though, that the "dick-fuck-pussy" talk that so offends them is the very same "dick-fuck-pussy" talk that defines their lives. "That's our domain," they figure, "we invented all of that and it's only funny when we say it." Well, change is here and whether anyone likes it or not is not high on Amy's list of concerns. This is her shtick, turning the tables on tired old gender maps. Good for her. Who knows, "vagina envy" may well become the catchphrase of the new era. Hey, I already want one.
WOW! After years and years and years of not watching latenight, finally Colbert comes along! Johnny Carson was my all-time favorite. Conan of the 90s was killer. I'm ready to crown Colbert as KING OF LATENIGHT!
You could literally be an AMAZING human, find a cure for cancer, create world please.. but if you don’t fit that beauty standard, girl you’re gonna know about it :(
This is one of the best comment sections ever below an amy schumer video and i love it. I love amy she is so funny. I will never understand the hate she gets.
I love stephen's band, you guys over there at the US have a great and diverse musical culture and I'm glad i can sample some of that New Orleans music from Mr. John Batiste here. but that tuba intro tho'. LOL

Okay, that was weird. My name IS Mr. Breske and for a brief moment when she apologized to her Business Law teacher, it seemed she was speaking right to me. :)
+Lorelei Carlson Colbert's official RU-vid channel - this one - uploaded six and a half minutes of him. You must have seen one of those hacked down amateur uploads. I hate those, though not as much as a video where someone has filmed their television with a smart phone - and thought it was worth uploading . . . ! :)
I would like to apologize to my high school shop teacher. I was incessantly tardy for my wood shop class and one day he pulled me aside and said "If you can't ever make it on time to shop class, you will probably not make it on time to a job out in the real world and I am worried for you." He was right. I'm 50 years old now and I am still consistently late. In fact I have something I'm supposed to be doing right this minute and instead, I'm writing about being late on a RU-vid comments thread. LOL

I love both Steve and Jimmy Fallon but Stephen s razor sharp wit and intelligence, coupled with his great voice, fluid grace and the AMAZING Jon Baptiste have taken late night television back to variety show, top drawer entertainment. each episode has continuity and substance, and is relevant. his love of life and humanity come through to the viewer. love it. oy yeah and "the humans" are amazing too. otherwise that particular collection wouldn't be delivering late night goodness (whenever you watch it).
What makes you think he is lying? It's hardly surprising he would have turned into a troubled teen after his father and two of his brothers died in a plane crash when he was 10. While he's clearly a very smart guy, he has talked about how he lost any motivation to put effort into his schoolwork after that. I'm guessing his poor choir teacher didn't know about that at the time thought and thought he was just acting up for no reason.
Little girl, trust me I live in LA, u seem decent,u don't want to grow up to be another miserable ugly person like rosie odonnel like schumars destined. Go to college, be decent, find a decent guy(no matter how long it takes) and you'll live a much better life.Never stay angry MANHATING too long or you'll end up miserable for life like all of them in that crowd.
