Yeah its the late show with Stephen Colbert. Tonight, no moore plus, stephen welcomes nick jonas Dennis Rodman and musical guest jeezy, featuring tory laynze. Featuring jon batiste and stay human. And now, live on tape from the ed sullivan theater in new york city, its Stephen Colbert cheers and applause stephen hey stephen look what just happened. Hey, everybody. Please, have a ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the late show. Im your host, Stephen Colbert. If youll excuse me, im a little shaky tonight because my heart has been hurting all day due to a condition my doctor calls hope. laughter i hope im pronouncing that correctly. I havent i havent been saying that word that much this year because its been a rough year. We have buried under an avalanche of bad news, but through the rubble of 2017, there was a glimmer of light, because last night, roy moore lost to doug jones in alabama. cheers and applause yeah. I mean its a good country. It just just need a little something. Just feels good. I the first night of han what. Youre welcome, roy moores jewish lawyer. This is the deepest of the deep south. All rooteds lead north from this election. Jones is the first democrat to win an Alabama Senate seat in 25 years. applause so a quarter of a century. So the last time alabama elected a democratic senator, the biggest movie was aladdin, or, as roy moore calls it, the perfect date movie. What he calls it, not me. Thats what he calls it. Now, after winning by 1. 5 , jones, the winner, shared a message of hope for the whole country. Pedophilia, plus or minus the margin of error laughter so who can we thank . Well, it turns out African American voters made doug jones a u. S. Senator in alabama. cheers and applause yes. Yes yes yes thank you. Thank you. Thank you, black voters. It is the best thing African Americans have done for alabama since they built it for free. Just take a look im not in favor of it. Im just saying, they didnt get paid just take a look at these numbers. Jones got 30 of white voters, and 96 of African Americans. 96 i think, if im not mistaken applause i think i think that means African Americans get an a , while white voters will be held movement. Of course, last nights election wasnt just a loss for roy moore. Its a loss for all republicans, especially former trump advisor and laboratory monkey receiving the placebo in a syphilis trial, steve bannon. Bannon backed moore in the primary against establishment republican Luther Strange. Now, thanks to steve the wonder corpse bannon, republicans lost the reddest state in the country. And theyre not happy. Just listen to new york congressman and Grocery Store manager who doesnt like the look of those teenagers in the dairy aisle, peter king. This guy does not belong on the national stage. He looks like some disheveled drunk that wandered onto the political stage. Stephen perhaps it was john mccains daughter, megan, who had the most eloquent takedown. Suck it, bannon jon oh, wow stephen im sorry, didnt you hear Anthony Scaramucci . Thats what bannons btr to do this whole time. laughter its an oldy but a goody. But the real loser here is donald trump, because he was all in on roy moore. A source close to the white house said, its devastating to the president. This is an earthquake, like virginia, but on steroids. Coincidentally, like virginia but on steroids is the Alabama State motto. laughter but to the president s credit, after moores loss last night, he tweeted something almost sportsmanlike congratulations to doug jones on a hardfought victory. The writein votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win. The people of alabama are great, and the republicans will have another shot at this seat in a very short period of time. It never ends laughter yes, it never ends. But roy moores political career . cheers and applause but then this morning, trump took stock of his actions, took stock of the moral and ethical issues that motivated the voters, and graciously accepted his share of the blame. Im just kidding. Laugh no, he tweeted, the reason i originally endorsed Luther Strange and his numbers went up mightily is that i said roy moore will not be able to win the election. I was right roy worked hard, but the deck was stacked against him yes, the deck was stacked, and we also learned that Donald Trumps endorsement is a royal flush. toilet flushing applause weve got to remember one thing is backer of Luther Strange in the primary. But as soon as strange lost, trump deleted all his tweets supporting him. And hes going to do the same thing for roy moore. Because backing a racist, homophobic, teensqueezer is one thing. But backing a loser . Thats offbrand. Notice. Trump was so tied to roy moore that, in the last days of the race, he recorded this robocall. Hi, this is president donald trump, and i need alabama to go vote for roy moore. It is so important. We need roy to help us with the republican senate. We will win, and we will make America Great again. Stephen and you cant delete a robocall, but you can record a followup. Hi, this is president donald trump, and i need alabama to not go vote for roy moore. It is so important. We need not roy to help us with the republican senate. Make America Great again. Not. laughter applause and you gotta believe general kelly enjoyed that firing, because Everybody Knows he is a messy bitch who loves drama. Apparently, omarosa didnt want to hear it from general kelly because a little later on, she tried to go see the president. She tried to go into the white house residence. Bad idea. I mean, you could get shot or worse, see trump in his bathrobe. laughter and thats when bleep got real. cheers and applause whaaat whaaaat . But, folks, i got to say, i am livid about this, not because omarosa should be anywhere near the white house she should not but because donal trump let general kelly do the firing. What the hell . firing omarosa is literally the only job donald trump is qualified for meatloaf, if youre watching, stay by the phone. I think youre about to get an important call. Anyway, back to alabama is what trump screams at Jeff Sessions every day. The Alabama Senate race is finally over, and Everybody Knows who the winner is, except the loser, because roy moore refuses to concede and wants a recount. Unfortunately, math is not on roy moores side. He lost by 1. 5 , three times the margin required to trigger an automatic recount. But Moores Campaign hopes a review of writein ballots could narrow the margin enough to trigger a recount. Wait, why would people write in roy moore . His name was on the ballot what, did people get in the voting booth and say, yes, i could just hit this button, but id rather practice my calligraphy. laughter but roy moore has one more way he thinks he could still win this senate seat. A recount . I got two words for you, stephen not a chance. Stephen thats actually three words. Oh, yeah, im not so good with numbers. I still dont get that holy trinity thing. Im me, my son, and a ghost . Who wrote this, m. Night shyamalan . Stephen so just to be clear, lord, you werent guiding roy Moores Campaign from heaven . I dont have time for that. Besides, roy moore doesnt need me. He can perform his own miracles losing to a democrat in alabama stephen god, everybody thank you for stopping biker lord. Hey, great to see you, stephen.

Where a celebrity friend joins me to tell flattering lies about puppies to get them adopted.

You just earned your first golden globe nomination. Thats for a song, right . I had a chance to write this song home nerd nand. Stephen fer nand, the bull with the delicate ego, yes. So basically, i tried a bunch of times after i spoke to the director, carlos, who is an amazing guy and did a brilliant job with the film me a brief of what they wanted and i couldnt get it right. I put a lot of pressure on myself, and i teamed up with justin cantor, a good friend of mine, and we went into the studio to talk about what it feels to be accepted, to be loved, and what that is for each of us. To both of us it was home, our family, our friend. I woke up in a panic on monday morning because i thought something had gone terribly wrong because my friend was banging on my door with the phone out like this. Thats the problem. He could have just come and been excited when he handed me at the time who i didnt know at the time was my manager on the phone telling me i was nominated. He looked like this. I was like, okay, somebody died. I grabbed the phone, hello. Im half asleep. And my manager said, you did it youre nominated for a golden globe. I and i did laps around my house. I was so excited. Stephen have you been before . I have been once before. Ive been to some of the parties and things but the other time i went was back wit and we were sitting at i think it was the kids table. At the time stephen you were kids. Youre right. That does make sense. Stephen now, the Golden Globes are famous for people being able to drink there. Yes. Stephen people get lit at the Golden Globes, and it really improves the acceptance speeches. Yeah. Stephen did you guys indulge at all . We did not. Stephen no . No, we worked for a Company Called disney at the time. Stephen im familiar. Im familiar with their work. They would frown on that . I think my oldest brother was old enough to drink, but even he was like, theyre watching. The mouse sander here somewhere. Stephen how do you handle or how did you learn to handle stardom because you probably cant go anywhere without sort of gangs of teenaged girls coming after you . Yeah. Stephen youre living roy moores dream, is what im saying cheers and applause years old, its kind of the dream scenario. And and so it was it was a good thing. But, also, you know, there is that element where up there times it was a bit of an invasion of privacy. Stephen sure. Youre trying to grow up and youre trying to just learn how to deal with life in general but you also have extra eyeballs on you and its tough. Thankfully i had some amazing people around me, and it all worked out. Stephen youre a darling of the tabloids. They always want to know whats going on with you and your love life and i have a picture thats pretty revealing.

Stephen eyebrows and crossed by a tweezer. Exactly, yeah. laughter and i i was kind of freaked out, you know. It was actually a pretty scary movie for that age. But i watched it throughout my whole childhood, and they called me about this one. And i was curious, you know, because it is such a beloved film. I think theres a personal attachment to it, and, you know, i read the script and fell in love with the way they were approaching this. Basically four High School Students get detention and they have to clear out this storage unit in the school, and they get stukd sukd into the jumanji game consol instead of the board game and bottom the avatars they choose.
