Keke Palmer shared a selfie with David Letterman, and they looked really cozy sitting next to each other at Saturday Night Live’s 50th celebration. How cozy? Like, do they have something to tell us?
According to Palmer, yes, they do. She wrote, “Say hello to Deke, or Kavid, yea that’s right we’re an item! We even share glasses now, there’s no going back #HadMeAtHello #WhoKnew #YouKnowItsYoGurl”
Can you imagine what their love affair is like? They are so different, she is loud and uninhibited, and he is quiet and reserved. She is young, and he is old. He hosted late night, and she hosted a daytime one. As they say, opposites attract, and let’s see them attract.
Jimmy Fallon got a big surprise on The Tonight Show yesterday, as did long time fans of NBC late night talk shows.
What was it? Paul Shaffer and the World’s Most Dangerous Band are filling in for The Roots this week. But that is not the surprise.
So, what is it? The band leader’s old boss, David Letterman, decided to stop by and say hi! And he did it by crashing Fallon’s monologue.
Was Fallon upset? Not at all. Well, maybe a little because Letterman slapped him in the face with a tortilla several times, and that actually hurts. Don’t worry, Jimmy got one in. And he is being sued by the original Late Night host.
It was nice to watch Letterman on TV again at 11:30p. Plus, it was wonderful to see the two hosts together because they have such different hosting styles. If they were to co-host a talk show, it would be like The Odd Couple.
Maybe we can get Letterman out of retirement to do it. Would you watch The Late Tonight Show?
UPDATE: If you are wondering where The Roots are (like I was), they are rehearsing for the SNL 50 Homecoming Concert Lineup on Friday.
It has been nine years since David Letterman ended his run on The Late Show, but they are still sharing clips from his late night talk show.
Today, they posted an interview with Steve Martin from 2001. Before the Only Murders star sat down with Letterman, he did a ballsy performance. As in his testicles sang Mister Sandman, and they sent me a dream. So, good night, sweetheart. Good night!
Before David Letterman had his own talk show, he auditioned for Airplane. The 32-year-old’s audition in 1979 wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be.
Before David Letterman was playing games on his talk shows, he was playing games on Password Plus. I love the interaction between the 32-year-old comedian and Allen Ludden during that 1979 episode.
