My boo Stephen Colbert shaved his head for the sake of our troops overseas. It just makes him more butch and sexy.
Colbert finally went trucked his entire show to Iraq after weeks of promising a visit overseas on Friday. “Operation Iraqi Stephen: Going Commando,” has finally happened. The show, which airs on Comedy Central tonight, is the first non-news television show to be produced, taped and transmitted to the U.S. from a combat zone.
He didn’t walk on eggshells either. Stephen was his typical witty self and has kept the soldiers laughing. He even went as far as shaving his head and now bears the typical military buzz cut.
Per USA Today:
“After a semiserious interlude in which Odierno told Colbert his declaration of victory might be a bit premature, Colbert asked the general how he thought Colbert would fare in his Army.
Odierno responded that Colbert had too much hair to be a soldier. At that point, President Obama was beamed in on a large projection screen and ordered Odierno to give Colbert a trim.”
He will be taping 4 more shows this week and proceeds from iTunes downloads from this week’s episodes will be donated to the U.S.O.
