Colbert & Stewart's Hilarious Prop Auction Shenanigans
23 Apr
Summary
- Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert hosted a charity auction.
- Props included a red carpet and a wig, reaching $5,600.
- The Late Show sign and signed mugs fetched over $10,100.
Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart recently teamed up for a lighthearted promotional sketch. The two hosts appeared in floral leisure wear to advertise a charity auction featuring props and merchandise from The Late Show. During the sketch, an impulsive bid by Stewart led to Colbert playfully spitting a drink in his face.
The auction included various significant items. A red carpet from guest arrivals and a wig previously owned by Jon Stewart attracted bids up to $5,600. Additionally, a T-shirt bearing "The Last Show" text saw Stewart react with excitement. The Late Show sign, a prominent studio feature, was offered alongside signed mugs from both Colbert and Stewart, with its bidding reaching $10,100.
Other items available included several of Colbert's signature neckties. In a separate moment, Colbert humorously sent a box labeled "Iran War jokes" to Jimmy Kimmel during his monologue. The event aimed to raise funds for a real charity ahead of The Late Show's final episode on May 21.
