After The Late Show With Stephen Colbert got axed by CBS, allegedly due to political pressure, President Donald Trump has claimed Jimmy Kimmel’s show could be next to go. He further stated that The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon would follow.
Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart and John Oliver joined Weird Al Yankovic and Lin-Manuel Miranda to support Stephen Colbert after 'The Late Show's' cancellation by appearing in a segment inspired by the Coldplay kiss-cam incident.
As host of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” the comedian has been successful, receiving critical praise and leading the program to regularly becoming the top-rated late-night show, outpacing his younger rivals Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel — albeit against the backdrop of what Reuters termed “late-night TV’s fade-out.
Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart and John Oliver all made cameo appearances during Monday's "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert."
Stephen Colbert spoofed that viral Coldplay concert clip with help from several fellow late-night hosts, plus Lin-Manuel Miranda and Weird Al.
Given that the last “celebrity” in the crowd was a cartoon Donald Trump, seemingly drawn in the style of the Colbert-produced Tooning Out The News, Miranda said, “Tell me this has nothing to do with who we just put a spotlight on.”
