The Late Show host paid to have his entire staff flown out and put up in a hotel in downtown Los Angeles for Emmys weekend so they, too, could be on hand to celebrate the show’s three nominations as well as Colbert’s hosting gig. In all, the show’s producer Chris Licht, who also produced Sunday night’s awards, says there were more than 200 guests (including staffers and plus-ones), who came out for the weekend’s events that also included a party at Wolfgang Puck’s restaurant not far from L.A. Live on Saturday night.

“He’s one of the most genuinely nice people I’ve ever worked with,” Licht tells THR. “And it was very important to him that the people who got him to this place be here to enjoy it with him.” A much smaller group joined Colbert after the Emmys on Sunday when he hosted an exclusive party at Beauty & Essex in Hollywood. By then, Colbert and his team had reached their limit with press and photographers so a strict “no media, no photographs” policy was put in place. Colbert only posed for one image featuring him holding a glass of Brett Ratner’s Hillhaven Lodge whiskey to close out the busy night. The only downside is that Colbert and crew went home empty-handed, but one source said you wouldn’t know it judging by the vibe at the party. “He was in a great mood,” relayed the source.
