Yesterday was David Letterman’s 65th birthday and to celebrate the occasion Billy Crystal made a video with other celebrities to commemorate the milestone year for the CBS host. You have to watch the video to see just how much the Late Show host is loved by the people he interviews. So sweet.
BTW now that Letterman is a senior citizen, I guess the show is on too late for him because he actually yawned while the 9-time Oscar host was telling a story. Maybe they will have to tape the show earlier to accommodate his new lifestyle and so he can still get out in time for the Early Bird dinner specials at the local diner.
CBS announced today that The Late Show with David Letterman and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson will remain on CBS until at least 2014. Both late night hosts re-upped their contracts for two more years.
That means that the gap toothed host will be longest-running late night talk show host in television history surpassing Johnny Carson’s record of 30 years. Letterman has been on our late night air waves since 1982.
Now when it comes to the Scot, his deal granted him a larger studio at CBS TVC. For those of you who have not seen his old one it is really really tiny.
I am happy that both men will continue to do their shows especially because there were rumors that Ferguson was iffy. We need more hosts like him on out TVs.
Chris Elliott was on The Late Show yesterday and before he was set to talk to David Letterman someone flour bombed him like they did to Kim Kardashian. Unlike Kim, he didn’t handle it like a man and cried after he was covered with the white powder. The CBS host felt bad for him, so he had Biff wash him down. And when I say wash him down, I mean use a hose and saturated him with water.
Am I the only one who would’ve looked as happy as Biff did hosing down Chris Elliott? There is just something about him that annoys the hell out of me.
Neil Patrick Harris was on The Late Show yesterday and he told David Letterman that just like us, he also wants to know who the Mother is on How I Met Your Mother. Then he told the CBS late night host that he knows who she is, and let me tell you it surprised me. Watch the video to who the big reveal is and if you saw it coming.
Paul Rudd was on The Late Show yesterday and he told David Letterman that his two year old daughter is noticing the differences between boys and girls. Which is normal at her age, but vocalizing about it can be embarrassing. About a month ago he was on a plane with his wife and his kids, and Darby decided that everyone on the plane should not be clueless about something. She decided to tell them, “Daddy has a biiiiiiiig pen!s.” Well had she just said that and he let it go, things would’ve been OK. But he made the classic parent mistake of laughing and she kept saying it over and over again and now everyone on the plane knows why he new film is called Wanderlust.
I think I will have to watch some of his other movies today to see if his daughter is speaking the truth, which I am sure she is.
