On April 21st, CBS announced that Stephen Colbert tested positive for COVID-19 and that he will take a break from taping The Late Show.
Today, the network said, “Stephen is experiencing symptoms consistent with a recurrence of COVID. Out of an abundance of caution for his staff, guests, and audience, he will be isolating for a few additional days. The Late Show will not be taping new episodes until further notice.”
Colbert released his own three-word statement, “WORST. SEQUEL. EVER.”
The talk show host went over two years without getting coronavirus, and now he has gotten it twice in a month.
Hopefully, he will be better soon and back doing his late night show.
Yesterday, the Top 7 performed on American Idol. However, only five sang on the stage. That is because Ryan Seacrest announced at the beginning of the episode that the other two tested positive for COVID-19 since last week’s show.
Noah Thompson was diagnosed earlier this week, so he performed live from his hotel room. While Fritz Hager got the results yesterday morning. Therefore, they used his rehearsal videos for his performances.
Were their performances good enough to move them forward to the Top 5? Yes, they were. Hopefully, both of them will be feeling better by Sunday’s live show.
If not, maybe they will bring back Jay Copeland and Christian Guardino, who were eliminated last night.
Last week, Sharon Osbourne announced that her husband, Ozzy Osbourne, caught COVID-19. She left her new show in London to take care of him back in Los Angeles.
What happens if you are a caregiver of someone who has coronavirus; they might give it to you, And that is what happened to Sharon. Now, she is in bed battling COVID for a second time. She previously had it in 2020.
For years, Jimmy Kimmel has tortured kids with different stunts. Well, now they are getting revenge. That is because one of them gave his daughter, Jane, COVID-19, and she gave it to her daddy.
“Our daughter brought us covid (even though we specifically asked her not to) All feeling fine, I am double vaxxed and boosted but the show must not go on,” he wrote. “Apologies to @TomCruise & @iliza and thanks to Mike Birbiglia @birbigs who’ll be filling in for me starting tomorrow night.”
Brandi Carlile was supposed to perform at Stagecoach tomorrow, but she had to cancel. That is because she got COVID-19.
In a video to her fans, the singer says that she is suffering from a chest infection due to it. She also revealed that she has had it for a few days, and today she is feeling a little better.
What she is not feeling better about is missing the festival. So she concluded her message with, “I hope you have a wonderful time out there with my freaking friends.” I am sure her freaking friends will be missing her.
Get well soon.
While Carlile will not be able to attend, she can watch her freaking friends on YouTube because they are streaming it live.
