Artist: Stephen Colbert

On the heels of Jack White's new album announcement as well as the unveiling of Blunderbuss 's first single " Love Interruption ," we thought it was time to revisit the hits - not the literal ones , unfortunately - of White's wide-reaching, strange and prolific career so far. So, here's 13 of Jack White's most memorable collaborations. Sorry Bobby D . For once, you didn't make the cut. 13. Insane Clown Posse and JEFF The Brotherhood w/ Jack White Definitely one of the higher-ranking moments in Jack White's "WTF?" register, White [...]

</embed> Bjork is the Queen and Prime Minister of Ice Land. She is also the Michael Jackson of Iceland. She is also the Amelia Earhart of Iceland because she is the first person in Icelandic history to fly away in a 'metal sky bird', which is what they call airplanes there. For some reason, Stephen Colbert 'booked her' on his show, probably to produce an internet meme of a crazy old lady with a red nest on her head. Nothing funnie or insightful is shared in their convo, but I guess listening to [...]

Até os entrevistados mais certinhos e previsíveis podem gerar resultados impagáveis quando perante o apresentador norte-americano Stephen Colbert. Então, porquê não unir o apresentador e comediante Colbert com uma das entrevistadas menos convencionais de todo o mundo da música, a islandesa Björk ? Foi o que aconteceu na noite passada, para a sorte dos espectadores do The Colbert Report. Como já é tradicional no Colbert Report, antes da entrevista, Björk apresentou uma das faixas de seu álbum/aplicativo Biophilia . Cosmogony , como apresentada no programa de TV estadunidense, é mais uma prova de [...]

Last night Bjork graced The Colbert Report to chat about and perform a track from her latest album, Biophilia.

If you're going to walk into The Colbert Report with a giant red Brillo-pad wig on, you should expect to become a target. When Björk stopped by the show last night, Colbert could've justifiably given her a treatment only slightly more humane than the one she got in Dancer In The Dark . But surprisingly, Colbert took it pretty easy on her, asking her about her iPad apps and Icelandic elves without malice and generally letting Björk be just as adorably weird as always. Björk also got a chance to perform on the show, as a wailing [...]

DVR alert! As previously reported , Björk will bring her Biophilia live show, which blew Scott and Amrit's minds in Iceland last year, to New York for a 10-show run that starts Friday. And now Pitchfork reports that she'll appear on The Colbert Report tonight to perform " Cosmogony " and talk about the whole multimedia experience of her new album. I'm sure Colbert will treat her presentation with absolute seriousness and respect. [Photo by Ari Magg @ Iceland Airwaves ]

The four-piece will tour America in February and March.

When it rains Maurice Sendak , it pours Maurice Sendak (more here and here ). The author's interview with funnyman Stephen Colbert is a verifiable hurricane of laughs. The interview is great, but make sure to watch the second part where they get high on markers. Part One : Part Two : [...]

at least 1 of these 3 will be at Radio City in March Billboard reports: "The Secret Policeman's Ball is letting America in on the party: The British-based music and comedy festival is coming to New York in March. Coldplay, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Mumford & Sons and Russell Brand are among the acts who have signed on for the event at Radio City Music Hall on March 4 . The concert will benefit Amnesty International, [...]

The Secret Policeman's Ball at Radio City Music Hall (03/04/12) The Secret Policeman's Ball is letting America in on the party: The British-based music and comedy festival is coming to New York in March. Coldplay, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Mumford & Sons and Russell Brand are among the acts who have signed on for the event at Radio City Music Hall on March 4. The concert will benefit Amnesty International, as it has since it started back in 1976 with celebrities [...]

I had the chance to see The Black Belles at their first ever live performance at Third Man Records on Halloween of 2010 and was blown away. Since then they have released a solid full length album, and a personal favourite 73 with one Stephen Colbert . Things have been bright and shining for the women in black so far, and now you have a chance to see them. Along with The Black Belles will be the fine ladies of Bleached , so this show is like a Paul Giamatti film - a Win [...]

It will be interesting to see how many votes Stephen Col… I mean Herman Cain gets today in South Carolina. For those of you not in the loop, here is a quick summary of what the what is: Stephen Colbert (soft t) is a comedian who plays an over the top, tongue in cheek Conservative news host on Comedy Central's The Colbert Report (soft t's). A couple of weeks ago, a polling company did a poll (as they do) to test the waters in South Carolina before the upcoming Republican (Republican=Conservative) primary. And [...]

Stephen Colbert, host of the The Colbert Report, has paved the way for a presidential bid by transferring control of his political fundraising organisation to his former boss Jon Stewart . Lampooning the campaign finance rules that permit such fundraising groups, known as super pacs, Colbert announced it would be renamed the "Definitely Not Coordinated with Stephen Colbert Super Pac." The move potentially paves the way for Colbert to enter the Republican presidential primary in South Carolina , his home state. Campaigning politicians are prohibited from [...]

Stephen Colbert's Super PAC, Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow , has released its first ad to air in South Carolina going after Mitt "The Ripper" Romney. It's nicely narrated by Jon Lithgow. Even though this is partly in jest, it's pretty brilliant. Imagine if this commercial came from the Ron Paul camp? [via SFB ]

The past week has been contentious. Republicans attacked other Republicans for (oddly) being too capitalistic and the Iranian government threatened to block the Straight of Hormuz. However, it was the [...]

For the past week, the internet has been a party to an entertainingly dumb debate about the exact definition of the archaic hip-hop term "illin'," which was an answer in Saturday's New York Times crossword. While the crossword clue indicated that the term meant "wack," others disagreed, leading to a semantic blood-feud between Times crossword editor Will Shortz and blogger Boobs Radley . Naturally, The Colbert Report decided to solve the dispute once and for all by bringing in the Beastie Boys' Mike D to mock-academically review both claims. The result: Good television! [...]

The big news from last night's The Colbert Report was the launch of Stephen Colbert's presidential campaign, though I would argue that plans for Colbert and Jon Stewart's combination bagel shop/travel agency - From Schmear to Eternity - is some mighty awesome news, as well (watch all of the aforementioned unfold here .) But during the show's second segment, Colbert sought to clear up a dispute between New York Times crossword puzzle editor Will Shortz and freelance writer Julieanne Smolinski over the usage of the word "illin'" with the help of Head Grammarian of the Beastie Boys , Mr. [...]

"There's a common explanation that profound sadness leads to someone's becoming a comedian, but I'm not sure that's a proven equation in my case … I'm not bitter about what happened to me as a child, and my mother was instrumental in keeping me from being so. … She taught me to be grateful for my life regardless of what that entailed, and that's directly related to the image of Christ on the cross and the example of sacrifice that he gave us. What she taught me is that the deliverance God offers you from pain is not no pain [...]

Fresh off their performance at SNL, The Black Keys made a trip over to The Colbert Report for an interview and to play the exact same songs that they had played just a few nights before. While El Camino might not be a top ten album for me this year like Brothers was in 2010 the band has certainly earned enough brownie points for an honorable mention. Colbert is a tough interview. He throws jabs and if you don't put up some block and counter punch he'll really tear you up and embarrass [...]

The Black Keys should already feel comfortable on the Colbert Report stage; they were there earlier this year to clown themselves for having so many damn songs in TV commercials. Last night, they were there for a marginally more dignified reason: To sit for an interview with Colbert and to play a couple of songs from El Camino , their current reigning Album Of The Week. In the interview, however, they come off as total doofuses. That's OK! Rock guys are allowed to be doofuses, and it gives [...]
