Seth Meyers did Late Night from 30 Rock yesterday with a live studio audience, and he looked fine. However, today is a different story.
“The bad news is, I tested positive for COVID (thanks, 2022!) the good news is, I feel fine (thanks vaccines and booster!),” he wrote. “We are canceling the rest of the shows this week, so tune in next Monday to see what cool location we will try and pass off as a studio!!!”
Hopefully, he will be better soon. Because he is the best late night host currently on television, and we can’t afford to lose him. Plus, he has three children at home, including an infant.
Seth Meyers and Will Forte have been friends since their days together on Saturday Night Live. I am sure that they have gone out drinking on more than one occasion. But have they ever gone day drinking? Now, they have, and we got to see their adventure on Late Night this morning. The morning is something neither man was looking forward to after consuming all of that alcohol.
The two funnymen made some disgusting mixed drinks, and then they played some game together. For the first game, the Last Man on Earth had to identify the silhouettes of people with facial hair. If he got it right, then Meyer drank. If he got it wrong, then he drank.
Then for game number 2, Forte had to guess what movie he was in by a picture of himself. To make it more difficult, the photos were of closer-up versions of himself with each guess.
Next up, we learned that MacGruber cannot do impressions. His Christopher Walken impression is so bad, SNL had to cut it from a sketch that Meyers wrote back in the day. While he cannot mimic people’s voices, he can give art masterpieces like The Scream a voice. This had the late host laughing historically.
However, not as hysterically as when he asked his friend to make him break. Could Forte make him crack up? Yes, and he went to great lengths to do it. How Meyers didn’t laugh for as long as he did for the last attempt, I don’t know. I was on the floor crying from laughter. That is why I love both these men!
And I must declare Will Forte is the funniest Will! So watch him as MacGruber tomorrow on Peacock!
Seth Meyers had a Netflix special called Lobby Babby that was about his second son, Axel, 3, who was born in the lobby of his building. His first son, Ashe, 5, barely made it to the hospital before he made his debut.
After two close calls, the Late Night host and his wife, Alexi Ashe, learned their lesson. So ten weeks ago, she gave birth to their daughter, Adelaide, in the bathtub of their home. Wait, they had a baby ten weeks ago, and no one knew about it! That is what happens when they didn’t have a close call on the way to the hospital.
Congrats to the couple who had a secret baby in their tub while their sons were sleeping!
On July 3rd, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani said I do. To make the moment memorable, the Country singer sang his vows to the love of his life.
Ever since Caron Daly, who officiated the wedding, revealed that fact; we have wondered if we will hear that heart song. Yesterday, when Shelton was on Late Night, he told Seth Meyers that We Can Reach The Stars will be on the deluxe version of Body Language that comes out on December 3rd.
I am sure we will not have to wait that long to hear the song. I bet you a penny he sings it to her on an upcoming episode of the Voice.
Talking about the NBC singing competition, the newlywed trashed the other three coaches. When Meyers asked him how confident he is about winning this season of The Voice, he did not hold back on ripping his fellow coaches a new one.
He started things off with Ariana Grande. “Listen, Ariana, she is a super talent, very sweet human being.” But, he had a but, “My feeling is, she’s going to suck as a coach.”
“And Kelly Clarkson, I think it’s fizzled out.” Then he explained why “There’s too much Kelly on TV. I joke that NBC is ‘Nothing But Clarkson.’ People are tired of her. People are sick and tired of her.”
Finally, he got to the EGOT winner, “And with John Legend, he’s just so high all the time. I don’t even know if he knows he’s on TV.”
Because of all of that, he thinks this year is going to be “gimme” for him. Will it be? We will just have to tune in to find out.
Selena Gomez was on Late Night yesterday to talk about her Hulu show Only Murders in the Building with Steve Martin Short. However, Seth Meyers wanted to also discuss her makeup line Rare Beauty.
Since talk is just talk, he decided to show us how her mascara looks on him, even though he never put it on himself. Well, Rihanna put it on him when he was wasted, but he never used the magic wand on his own lashes.
Anyways, with some instruction from the actress, he gave it a try. How did he do? If this talk show thing doesn’t work, he can become a makeup artist. What do you think we should call his beauty line?
