EPISODE NUMBER: Season 1, Episode 48 (Thursday, November 19, 2015)
GUESTS: Jane Fonda | Andrew Lloyd Webber
SEGMENTS: Monologue | No Country for Anyone Not Already Here | Jane Fonda | Andrew Lloyd Webber |Stephen Gets His Show Tune On with Andrew Lloyd Webber
SUIT REPORT: Grey Suit | White Shirt | Navy Tie
What did you think of last night’s show? I had a feeling this visit would be far tamer than the lap-cuddling of TCR interviews past. I have a theory that Jane’s admiration for Stephen began as she was actually a guest in the audience at the 2006 WHCD which catapulted Stephen to fame and glory. Her liberal-loving heart was won over, and she made a personal note to let him know as soon and as emphatically as possible. Mission accomplished.
Fonda strikes me as the kind of woman who is bold and adventurous. She really does look amazing for her age. I was dismayed to have read about incidences where people have spat on her at book signings, etc., because of her “Hanoi Jane” antics. The antipathy towards her amongst her detractors is very strong for someone who seems to simply want to live out loud. It’s nice to see she doesn’t care about any of that and is still shining bright.
I hope she keeps coming on The Late Show and wearing sexy outfits! Rock on, Jane.
It’s the Stephen-Colbert-being-seduced-by-Jane-Fonda Emoji.
I will be putting a nice guide for y’all, but let us know what you thought of this Thursday show in the comments.
Monologue
Stephen laments the lack of McConaughey and his own non-status in the current edition of People mag’s “Sexiest (Men) Alive.”
- I’m a little disappointed to learn that the only place my name appears in the magazine is the address label, right there.
- I’m not going to be sexy shamed anymore! I don’t the problem is me. I think it’s the people at People. Here’s my proof. Matthew McConaughey is nowhere on the list.
- People ask me…what is the difference between me and the old character…both of us think that McConaughey is empirically, objectively sexy.
- [McConaughey] is the gold standard [for sexy.] If it makes [David Beckham] happy to be on the cover, good for him. But McConaughey not on the list at all! It’s sexy malpractice.
- I tried to be fair. I thought that maybe McConaughey has been sexy for so long, they retired his sexy jersey, and raised to the rafters of the Sexy Museum. But even if that’s true, that means he’s shirtless right now, and boom! He’s back on the list.
- I’m calling on the people at People magazine to fully disclose the methodology to fully disclose for choosing your Sexiest Man Alive. Otherwise, readers may stop taking these lists seriously at all.
- Donald Trump says that he has lost 15 lbs while on the campaign trail so far. Which is great news, because if he campaigns long enough, maybe he’ll disappear completely.
Here is the pic from Stephen’s turn as model of “Sexy Surprises” in People in 2006. The bic pen is uber present, as per the usual:
Interview — Andrew Lloyd Webber
Stephen and later, Jon, join Lord Webber at the piano to review some his greatest hits. Stephen treats us to a little “Jesus Christ Superstar.”
Sign Off
I do love how Stephen joins the band at the end to say a final “good night” to the audience. It doesn’t always get captured on air, but in person it’s a very sweet gesture.
