Keith Olbermann to David Letterman: I Screwed Up Big Time!

In his first interview since being fired by Current TV, Keith Olbermann told David Letterman on The Late Show Tuesday that “I screwed up really big.”

Explaining his ouster using a drawn-out metaphor, he said, “It’s my fault it didn’t succeed in the sense that I didn’t think the whole thing through.”

“I didn’t say, ‘you know, if you buy a $10 million chandelier, you should have a house to put it in. Just walking around with a $10 million chandelier isn’t going to do anybody a lot of good, and it’s not going to do any good to the chandelier.’”

Rick Perry Top 10 List: Candidate Offers Best Excuses For Debate Debacle

The good news for Texas Gov. Rick Perry? This was unquestionably the brightest moment of his White House campaign since his announcement back in August.

The bad news? It only came about due to his unbelievable debate brain freeze the previous night, after which Republican voters likely wrote him off for good.

Might as well make the best of it in any case, right?

The politician, to his credit, poked fun at himself by reading The Late Show with David Letterman’s Top 10 List Thursday. The category: Top 10 Rick Perry excuses …

Robert Pattinson Talks Twihards on The Late Show: Video

Taylor Lautner is not the only Twilight Saga star who often deals with older fans.

The ab-riffic actor talked with Jimmy Kimmel this week about the enthusiastic mothers that have asked him to sign their underwear (seriously!), while co-star Robert Pattinson appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman last night and told similar stories.

“It’s not just so much the teenage girls,” Robert said of his fan base. “It’s older than people realize and the older ones are the far more passionate fans.”

Could Taylor Lautner Kill Someone?

Could Taylor Lautner kill a guy in an alley? Could he snap David Letterman in half like a twig?

These were the topics the actor talked about last night during a stop on The Late Show. Ever modest, in regard to stunts performed in Abduction, Taylor replied of his fighting skills:

“It’s a little bit for show, it works for the movies but if I met a guy in the back alley, he could probably just sit on me and take me. “It definitely looks cool in the movies and I was able to do a lot in this film.”

Kardashian Sisters Appear on The Late Show, Talk Kim’s Butt

David Letterman got to the bottom of Kim Kardashian’s butt x-ray last night, as the talk show attempted to make Kim, Khloe and Kourtney appear interesting on The Late Show.

After Letterman displayed the ridiculous item, Khloe appeared to actually upset her sister by saying: “That’s just fat. That’s where all of her fat goes, just to her ass. That’s it. It doesn’t go anywhere else… it just sits and just goes right there. It’s so frustrating. All she does it eat junk food and it goes to her booty.”

Of course, Kim defended herself, referring to her grueling workouts and going on about how New

David Letterman Responds to Death Threats

David Letterman is not taking the recent jihadist death threats against him lightly.

He’s taking it very lightly, ridiculing the nut jobs incessantly on The Late Show.

If anything, he likely pushed a few more buttons with this bit Monday night:

David Letterman Jokes About Death Threats

Most of Letterman’s Monday night jokes – and Top 10 list – were dedicated to addressing threats against him last week on site frequented by Al-Qaeda.

“You people, to me, are more than just an audience; you’re more like a human shield,” Letterman began, and it only got more ridiculous from

George Lopez mulling run for Los Angeles Mayor

Apart from his TBS talk show, a role in the new movie ‘The Smurfs’ and planning an exit to Canada if Sarah Palin wins office, George Lopez has yet another plan for his life – he wants to be Mayor of Los Angeles.

“This is a great city, and it’s my city,” 50-year old Lopez told Piers Morgan. “I believe there are certain things that could be taken care of for which you don’t need a strong political background.”

One thing, he says, is the style of construction;

“Architecture downtown is beautiful and people live there, but they don’t have the pride in Los Angeles they did years ago.”

Emma Watson Admits: I Once Got Drunk!

Forget all those stories about how Emma Watson is a mature, grounded young celebrity. The actress made a startling confession to David Letterman last night: She once got drunk!!!

The Harry Potter star answered the host’s awkward questions about drinking in response to Daniel Radcliffe’s admission last week that he developed an alcohol problem while filming this franchise.

“It’s really not something that I genuinely know much about,” Watson said.”As far as I know, he never took a sick day. He was like the most professional, amazing guy ever.”

Ed Sullivan Theater Trashed By Drunk Moron

Jimmy Whittemore, a 22-year-old aspiring actor, broke in and trashed the NYC theater where David Letterman’s Late Show tapes and caused $5,000 in damages.

The idiot was busted early Sunday morning after police say he kicked in the theater’s doors, trashed the box office, lobby and a bunch of personal property.

Fortunately, Dave’s coffee mugs and Paul’s keyboards are 100 percent fine.

Letterman’s stage is padlocked so the dumbass couldn’t get in. Cops say he has no direct connection to the star or studio and blamed it all on alcohol.

Whittemore was hospitalized briefly after his arrest for

Lady Gaga, David Letterman Ramble Endlessly in Hilarious "Interview"

Lady Gaga was interviewed by David Letterman last night, but it didn’t feel like an interview in the traditional sense. The Late Show host and Born This Way singer essentially spent 15 minutes rambling and exchanging absurd comments.

David Letterman Goes Off on Donald Trump

David Letterman was joking around with Dr. Phil last night, only he wasn’t really joking when it came to Donald Trump’s criticism of President Obama.

He began by asking Phil about Trump, and Phil didn’t really bite. What Dave was really doing was giving himself his own segue to lay into the Donald.

Dave said, flat-out, that beyond the birth certificate, Trump’s questioning of Obama – how he got into Harvard, how he wrote his memoirs – is racist.

“It smacks of racism,” said Letterman, noting that while it’s all a giant media circus to a
