  • Oh… Thank you, Nikki! I’m laughing to tears with this one.

    It reminds me of SNL when it was good. Now I have to translate the video to my wife.

  • Somewhere out there, Bill O’Reilly is relieved that someone else has finally overshadowed his infamous “We’ll do it live!” rant.

    Diva actors/actresses, you’ve been put on notice. This is the age of modern technology and your behavior will no longer remain a secret…

  • How about a combination of Bill O’Reilly and Christian Bale?!

    Yes, Christian Bale was a stage hand for Bill O’Reilly’s Inside Edition! See what I mean below:

  • This is Stephen Colbert at his best. And that Steve guy with the glasses isn’t too bad either.

  • Shane, the DP Bale went off on, has a terrible reputation for wandering through shots while the actors are filming and rehearsing. It was apparently the second time THAT DAY that shane had disrupted Bale’s work when he went off. After months of shooting. I’d be tired of that too.

  • Poor Christian?! Are you kidding me?

  • Can we all just stop pretending that Colbert has talent? Enough already.

  • Like James Lipton and Steven Colbert, I used to think any idiot could act, until I took a friend’s advice to take acting classes so as to improve my screenwriting skills.

    Strangely enough though, Colbert’s parroting Bale came off as an attempt to diffuse all the backlash against Bale for his tirade; but Colbert is still only a marginally better actor than James Lipton (haha).

    However, for Lipton, someone who allegedly reveres actors and their craft – to put that piece of crap on Jay Leno – speaks of someone who doesn’t begin to get the first thing about acting. Lipton’s actions are right down there with whoever leaked clips from the filming of “The Rock,” in which Ed Harris couldn’t get a scene right and kept exploding into a tirade after every take.

  • Steve: We’re done, professionally until you and Robin Williams start appearing in alleged comedies that are actually funny.

  • Loved it! That is great tv.

  • What happened to this clip? I have tried to find it for an hour now. All sites that had it, including youtube, have taken it down!
