Colbert Asks Swift for Post-Late Show Advice
11 Dec
Summary
- Colbert sought advice from Taylor Swift about life after his show ends.
- Swift suggested hobbies and focusing on family and community.
- The Late Show is scheduled to end in May 2026.

As Stephen Colbert prepares to conclude 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' in May 2026, he sought guidance from pop superstar Taylor Swift. Colbert, who has hosted a late-night show for two decades, inquired about managing the transition after such a significant career chapter.
He drew a parallel to Swift's own experience following the conclusion of her extensive two-year "Eras Tour." Colbert wondered if she had any wisdom that could apply to his own impending departure from television.
Swift offered general advice, suggesting Colbert could focus on hobbies or direct his passionate energy toward his family and community. The network announced the show's cancellation in July, citing financial reasons, though Colbert quipped about his parent company's potential ability to afford keeping the show.
