The well known host of The Colbert Report is in news these days. We all are quite familiar with his credence in the US army but this time he surprised everyone. Colbert shaved his head! Well believe it or not but this is the truth.
Stephen is in Iraq these days, not for a vacation but for the canning four episodes of his late night show from Baghdad. Stephen is a kind of person who always comes up with new and innovative ideas for his show. That works too, as his show is among few very popular late night shows on television. Stephen’s this idea is not only extraordinary but it even created a history as this is the first time in history of American television that a show is being edited, taped and broadcast from a combat zone.
Stephen said that one of the most important reasons for this is that the people of America seems to have forgotten about 135,000 troops that are in Iraq for serving them.
Stephen has always been a strong supporter of the US troop. I remember that he also raised funds for school supplies for the children of soldiers and how he supported yellow ribbon fund that helps injured veterans soldiers.
But this time around, what Stephen did, shows his respect and love for troops. He wore a camouflage suit, greeted the troops and in order boost up their spirits he even got his head shaved by the General Ray Odierno who is the commander of multinational corps in Iraq.
The Colbert Report is a Peabody and Emmy Award winning American late night talk show. The show focuses on the fictional host Stephen Colbert who acts as a high-status, poorly informed and well-intentioned idiot. The show is no doubt a hit and has a wide viewer ship.
