On Monday, Stephen Colbert announced that he tested positive for COVID-19 and would be hosting The Late Show from home. But then yesterday, he said that he was not up for hosting the show.
Today, he gave a further update on his health. “Sorry to say, per doctor’s orders, I’m going to be out for the rest of the week,” he said in his message. “Resting up so that I can deliver the hand crafted, artisanal talk show that we so enjoy serving you. In the meantime, a heady blend of Paxlovid and onions in my socks (thank you, [Jimmy] Fallon) will be rebuilding my immune system.”
I love that Fallon sent him that care package. I wonder what the other members of Strike Force Five are going to send him to get well.
And on that note, I hope it works well, and he is better soon.
Yesterday, The Late Show announced that Stephen Colbert tested positive for COVID-19 and that he would be hosting the talk show from home. Today, the show will go dark.
The CBS show shared this message from Colbert, “I always want to be able to do the show the audience deserves, but today Covid had other plans. Taking it day by day and I hope we can all see each other tomorrow night.”
Hopefully, he will be feeling better tomorrow and back hosting the show.
Doug Davidson attended a fan event with Rick Springfield overseas, and he came home with COVID-19. It got so bad that he had to call 9-1-1 and was taken to the hospital.
“As some of you are aware, I came back from the Dominican Republic with Covid,” the actor wrote. “After three days, I had significant trouble breathing, and I’d like to give a shout out to these fine agencies who were exceptional on every level. 1st: The 911 operator, she was absolutely fantastic. 2nd The Summerland/Carpinteria, fire district and 3rd: Cottage Hospital emergency Department! Hats off to all of them. They were incredible in every regard. Thank you so much!!!@CarpSumFAA,@AMR, @cottagehealth, @johnpalminterinews, @bill.macfadyen”
Thankfully, he is getting better now. And maybe now he will realize that the vaccine isn’t so bad. Perhaps if he had the shot, he would not have to pay an expensive hospital bill.
Artem Chigvintsev is out, and Ezra Sosa is in tonight on Dancing with Stars. The dancing competition show announced today that “Artem will not be dancing tonight due to COVID. Wishing him a quick recovery! ❤️ Charity will perform with Ezra for #LatinNight.”
His partner, Charity Lawson, wrote, “a duo if you ever seen what! Grateful for @ezra.sosa stepping in and getting the job done!!! Don’t miss tonight and make sure to VOTE for me!”
Luckily for Lawson, The Bachelorette taught her how to change up men at the drop of a hat.
Hopefully, Chigvintsev will be better soon and back dancing next week since we know that couple is not going anywhere until the finals.
Vanna White is taking a week off from Wheel of Fortune, but it is not a vacation. That is because our favorite hostess tested positive for COVID-19.
Since it is Teacher’s Week on the game show, they got a teacher to fill in for her. Not just any teacher, California’s Teacher of the Year Bridgette Donald-Blue. Even though she teaches elementary school math, she did a good job turning letters. And I am sure her students are very proud of her.
When it comes to Ms. White, Pat Sajak said she was feeling fine and was just suffering from sniffles.
