CelebnMusic247.com has learned that the Late Night host will no longer need to worry about his hosting gig since the “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” series has been removed from CBS.
Stephen Colbert said on Monday, “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” which airs on CBS, was canceled this week as Colbert recovers.
Colbert said in social media posts:
“I’m sure you’re thinking, ‘Turkey overdose, Steve? Gravy boat capsize?’ Actually, I’m recovering from surgery for a ruptured appendix,”. “I’m grateful to my doctors for their care and to Evie and the kids for putting up with me. Going forward, all emails to my appendix will be handled by my pancreas.”
A ruptured appendix, also known as a burst appendix, spreads infection throughout the abdomen, a condition called peritonitis. The condition can be life threatening. It requires immediate surgery to remove the appendix and clean the abdominal cavity.
There was no new show scheduled for Monday night, but Colbert had been set to feature Jennifer Garner, director Baz Luhrmann and guitarist John Scofield on Tuesday; Patrick Stewart and Jon Batiste on Wednesday, and Barbra Streisand and Kelsey Grammer on Thursday.
Colbert has hosted “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on CBS since 2015. From 2005 to 2014 he was the host of Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report.”
Get well soon Stephen, we know how serious this is, and an ruptured appendix is something that a person needs to take seriously.
For now head over to social media for some of the highlights of the show:
