Late show tragedy
After honoring his close friend and coworker, Stephen Colbert got emotional on air.
Amy Cole was on Stephen’s show for many years,
but she died of cancer not long ago.
She was only 53 years old.
Stephen dedicated the end of his Late Show to his friend.
There was a title card with a picture of Amy at the end of Monday’s show.
The photo had a caption that said,
“Dedicated to our dear friend Amy Cole, 1970–2024”
LateNighter says that people in the audience said the show,
which was usually funny, became serious.
Stephen supposedly told them to stop cheering.
