With the Kansas City Chiefs in the game, Colbert can’t wait to see “the biggest star in the N.F.L.” (if she can get there from Japan in time).
Welcome to Best of Late Night, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
On Sunday, Travis Kelce and the other Kansas City Chiefs beat the Baltimore Ravens, securing a spot in what Stephen Colbert now calls “the Taylor Swift Super Bowl.”
On Monday night, Colbert declared that Swift, who is dating Kelce and brought extra attention to the league all season, is “the biggest star in the N.F.L.”
“The whole thing has been great for the N.F.L. and for dads who struggle to bond with their teenage daughters.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“Yeah, you’ve got the Super Bowl, and you have Taylor Swift. Ratings are going to be higher than Snoop Dogg at a Willie Nelson concert.” — JIMMY FALLON
“But there are so many big questions about the Super Bowl. Can the 49ers contain Patrick Mahomes? Can the Chiefs stop Christian McCaffrey? And the one that most people care about: Can Taylor Swift make it there? ’Cause she has a concert in Japan the day before!” — JIMMY FALLON
“It’s just too stressful. Why can’t she just do a concert somewhere closer, like Paris or Venice or New York? They’re all there in Vegas.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“Of course, I hope Taylor makes it, because I really want to watch the Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show starring Shaky Footage of Taylor Swift Cheering in a Skybox, featuring Usher.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“A jury in former President Trump’s defamation trial has ordered him to pay $83 million in damages. Yeah, in a related story, a bunch of classified documents just turned up on eBay.” — JIMMY FALLON
“A Manhattan jury on Friday ordered former President Trump to pay nearly $84 million in his civil defamation case. Well, that explains the new fund-raising amounts.” — SETH MEYERS
“Well, congratulations on the payday, Eric!” — STEPHEN COLBERT, on E. Jean Carroll saying she wants to give the money Trump owes her to something he hates
“Former President Trump said at a rally in Las Vegas over the weekend that he feels ‘sharper now than I did 20 years ago.’ Of course, based on all of his testimony, he doesn’t remember a single thing from 20 years ago.” — SETH MEYERS
The “Tonight Show” guest James Corden shared what life is like after leaving “The Late Late Show.”
Elisabeth Moss, star of “The Veil,” will appear on Tuesday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”
