Colbert and Paul McCartney
By eh
Stephen Colbert met a Beatle last night! He and Paul McCartney went toe to toe discussing everything from whether or not George Martin was the fifth Beatle to cannibalism. (For the record: "What is the most tender cut of the McCartney?" "I would go for a little midriff.")
It's hilarious, and while Lindsay over at Videogum thinks McCartney seems befuddled, I think he's in on the joke. McCartney is pretty famously funny.
Also, toward the end Colbert and McCartney do a pretty sweet duet. I'm pretty freaking jealous of Colbert, let me say. When I was little, "Ebony and Ivory" was one of my favorite songs, but partly because I thought the lyrics were "Emily and Ivory." Which doesn't make sense, but I was a narcissist from a pretty early age, so it satisfied me.
