Following his appearance “Late Night with Seth Meyers” this past Tuesday, Stephen Colbert recorded a special introduction just for Gwen Stefani, after she botched the pronunciation “Colbert” at this years Emmy Awards when announcing “The Colbert Report” as the winner of the ‘Outstanding Variety Series’ category.
But we shouldn’t be so hard on poor Gwen. As Adam Levine (her co-presenter) revealed on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” on Wednesday night, that he had given a nervous Gwen some advice on how to pronounce “Colbert” before going on stage to present the Emmy Award.
Gwen laughed off the blunder on the September 8th episode of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”, confirming that she had indeed practiced for the occasion, but still hoped that “The Colbert Report” wouldn’t win so she could avoid saying “Colbert”.
