Colbert originalmente estudió para ser actor dramático, pero se interesó en el teatro de improvisación mientras asistía a la Universidad Northwestern , donde conoció al director de Second City , Del Close . Colbert actuó por primera vez profesionalmente como suplente de Steve Carell en Second City Chicago , donde sus compañeros de grupo incluían a Paul Dinello y Amy Sedaris , comediantes con los que desarrolló la serie de comedia Exit 57 . Escribió y actuó en el efímero Dana Carvey Show antes de colaborar con Sedaris y Dinello nuevamente en la serie de televisión de culto Strangers with Candy . Llamó la atención por su papel en este último como el profesor de historia gay en el armario Chuck Noblet .
El trabajo de Colbert como corresponsal en la serie de parodias de noticias de Comedy Central The Daily Show le valió un amplio reconocimiento. En 2005, dejó The Daily Show para presentar The Colbert Report . Después de la demostración diaria ' s noticias concepto-parodia, el informe de Colbert era una parodia de programas de opinión política impulsada por la personalidad, incluyendo el O'Reilly Factor , en la que interpretó una versión caricaturizada de conservadores expertos políticos . La serie se convirtió en una de las series de mayor audiencia de Comedy Central, lo que le valió a Colbert una invitación para actuar como artista destacado en la Cena de la Asociación de Corresponsales de la Casa Blanca en 2006, lo que hizo en su personaje. Después de terminar The Colbert Report , fue contratado en 2015 para tener éxito en la jubilación de David Letterman como presentador del Late Show en CBS. Fue anfitrión de la 69a edición de los Primetime Emmy Awards en septiembre del 2017.
Colbert ha ganado nueve premios Primetime Emmy , dos premios Grammy y dos premios Peabody . Colbert fue nombrada una de las 100 personas más influyentes de Time en 2006 y 2012. [7] [8] El libro de Colbert, I Am America (¡Y tú también puedes!) , Fue incluido en el número 1 en la lista de Best Seller del New York Times . en 2007.
Vida temprana
Colbert nació en Washington, DC , [2] [9] el más joven de 11 hijos en una familia católica . [10] [11] Pasó sus primeros años en Bethesda, Maryland . [12] Creció en el suburbio de Charleston en James Island, Carolina del Sur . Colbert y sus hermanos, en orden descendente por edad, son James III, Edward, Mary, William, Margo, Thomas, Jay, Elizabeth , Paul, Peter y Stephen. Su padre, James William Colbert Jr. , fue inmunólogo y decano de la facultad de medicina en la Universidad de Yale , en la Universidad de Saint Louis y, finalmente, en la Universidad Médica de Carolina del Sur , donde, desde 1969, se desempeñó como primer vicepresidente de asuntos académicos de la escuela. . [13] La madre de Stephen, Lorna Elizabeth Colbert (de soltera Tuck), era ama de casa. [14] [15] [16] [17]
En entrevistas, Colbert ha descrito a sus padres como personas devotas que también valoraban mucho el intelectualismo y les enseñaron a sus hijos que era posible cuestionar a la Iglesia y seguir siendo católicos. [18] En una entrevista, Lorna describió a Stephen como revoltoso. [19] Cuando era niño, observó que los sureños a menudo eran representados como menos inteligentes que otros personajes en la televisión con guión; para evitar ese estereotipo, se enseñó a sí mismo a imitar el discurso de los presentadores de noticias estadounidenses . [20] [21]
Si bien Colbert a veces afirma cómicamente que su apellido es francés, es de ascendencia irlandesa de 15/16; una de sus tatarabuelas paternas era de ascendencia alemana e inglesa. [22] [23] Muchos de sus antepasados emigraron de Irlanda a Norteamérica en el siglo XIX antes y durante la Gran Hambruna . [14] [24] En un principio, su apellido fue pronunciado / k oʊ l b ər t / KOHL -bərt en Inglés; El padre de Stephen Colbert, James, quería pronunciar el nombre / k oʊ l b ɛər / kohl- BAIR , pero mantuvo el / koʊlbərt / pronunciación por respeto a su propio padre. Ofreció a sus hijos la opción de pronunciar el nombre de la forma que prefirieran. [10] Stephen comenzó a usar / koʊlˈbɛər / más tarde en su vida cuando se transfirió a la Universidad Northwestern , aprovechando la oportunidad de reinventarse en un nuevo lugar donde nadie lo conocía. [2] Edward, el hermano de Stephen, un abogado de propiedad intelectual, contrató / ˈkoʊlbərt / ; esto se mostró en una aparición del 12 de febrero de 2009 en The Colbert Report , cuando su segundo hermano mayor le preguntó: " / ˈkoʊlbərt / o / koʊlˈbɛər / ?" Ed respondió " / ˈkoʊlbərt / ", a lo que Stephen respondió en broma: "Nos vemos en el infierno". [25]
El 11 de septiembre de 1974, cuando Colbert tenía diez años, su padre y sus dos hermanos más cercanos, Peter y Paul, murieron en el accidente del vuelo 212 de Eastern Air Lines mientras intentaba aterrizar en Charlotte, Carolina del Norte . [26] [27] Se dirigían a inscribir a los dos niños en la escuela Canterbury en New Milford, Connecticut . [11] [28] Ha hablado del impacto en él y su filosofía del dolor y el sufrimiento. [29] [30] Lorna Colbert trasladó a la familia de James Island a George Chisolm House , en el centro de Charleston y dirigió la cochera como alojamiento y desayuno . [31] [32] [33] Colbert encontró la transición difícil y no hizo amigos fácilmente en su nuevo vecindario. [10] Colbert se describió más tarde a sí mismo durante este tiempo como distante, sin un sentido de importancia con respecto a las cosas que les preocupaban a otros niños. [21] [34]
Desarrolló un amor por la ciencia ficción y las novelas de fantasía , especialmente las obras de JRR Tolkien , de la que sigue siendo un ávido admirador. Durante su adolescencia, también desarrolló un intenso interés en los juegos de rol de fantasía , especialmente Dungeons & Dragons , [34] [35] un pasatiempo que luego caracterizó como una experiencia temprana en la actuación y la improvisación . [36]
Colbert asistió a la Escuela Episcopal Porter-Gaud de Charleston , donde participó en varias obras de teatro escolares y contribuyó al periódico escolar, pero no estaba muy motivado académicamente. [34] Durante su adolescencia, estuvo brevemente al frente de A Shot in the Dark , una banda de covers de los Rolling Stones . [37] [38] Cuando era más joven, tenía la esperanza de estudiar biología marina , pero la cirugía destinada a reparar un tímpano severamente perforado le causó un daño en el oído interno lo suficientemente grave como para excluir una carrera de buceo y dejarlo sordo en su lado derecho. oído. [10] [39]
Durante un tiempo, no estaba seguro de si asistiría a la universidad, [40] pero finalmente solicitó y fue aceptado en Hampden – Sydney College en Virginia , donde también se había inscrito un amigo. Al llegar en 1982, se especializó en filosofía y continuó participando en obras de teatro. [41] [42] [43] Encontró el plan de estudios riguroso, pero estaba más centrado de lo que había estado en la escuela secundaria y fue capaz de aplicarse a sus estudios. A pesar de la falta de una comunidad teatral significativa en Hampden-Sydney, el interés de Colbert en la actuación aumentó durante este tiempo. Después de dos años, se trasladó en 1984 a la Universidad de Northwestern para estudiar teatro para estudiar interpretación, envalentonado al darse cuenta de que le encantaba actuar, incluso cuando nadie asistía a los espectáculos. [34] Se graduó de la Escuela de Comunicación de Northwestern en 1986. [44]
Carrera temprana en la comedia
Mientras estaba en Northwestern, Colbert estudió con la intención de convertirse en un actor dramático; sobre todo actuó en obras de teatro experimentales y no estaba interesado en la comedia. Él comenzó a realizarse la improvisación, mientras que en la universidad, tanto en el campus de equipo de improvisación No Fun barro pirañas [45] y en el Teatro La molestia en Chicago como parte de Del Close 's ImprovOlympic en un momento en el proyecto se centró en la competencia, a largo forma la improvisación, en lugar de la comedia de improvisación. "No iba a hacer Second City", recordó Colbert más tarde, "porque esa gente de Annoyance despreciaba a Second City porque pensaban que no era pura improvisación - había una cualidad mística y un poco snob en la gente de Annoyance". [36] Después de que Colbert se graduó en 1986, sin embargo, necesitaba un trabajo. Un amigo que trabajaba en la taquilla de Second City le ofreció trabajar respondiendo teléfonos y vendiendo souvenirs. [34] Colbert aceptó y descubrió que los empleados de Second City tenían derecho a tomar clases en su centro de formación de forma gratuita. [36] A pesar de su anterior aversión al grupo de comedia, se inscribió en clases de improvisación y disfrutó enormemente de la experiencia.
Poco después, fue contratado para actuar con la compañía de gira de Second City, inicialmente como suplente de Steve Carell . Fue allí donde conoció a Amy Sedaris y Paul Dinello , con quienes colaboró a menudo más adelante en su carrera. Según su relato, los tres comediantes no se llevaban bien al principio - Dinello pensó que Colbert era tenso, pretencioso y frío, mientras que Colbert pensaba en Dinello como "un matón analfabeto" [46] - pero el trío se hizo amigos cercanos mientras estaban de gira juntos, descubriendo que compartían una sensibilidad cómica similar. [34]
Cuando a Sedaris y Dinello se les ofreció la oportunidad de crear una serie de televisión para HBO Downtown Productions , Colbert dejó Second City y se mudó a Nueva York para trabajar con ellos en el programa de comedia Exit 57 . [34] La serie debutó en Comedy Central en 1995 y se emitió hasta 1996. Aunque duró solo 12 episodios, el programa recibió críticas favorables [47] [48] y fue nominado a cinco premios CableACE en 1995, en categorías que incluyen mejor escritura, performance y series de comedia. [49]
Carrera televisiva
El show de Dana Carvey (1996)
Después de la cancelación de Exit 57 , Colbert trabajó durante seis meses como miembro del elenco y escritor en The Dana Carvey Show , junto con el ex compañero de reparto de Second City Steve Carell, y también Robert Smigel , Charlie Kaufman , Louis CK y Dino Stamatopoulos , entre otros. La serie, descrita por un crítico como " sátira kamikaze " en "gusto dudoso en el límite", hizo que los patrocinadores se retiraran después de que se emitiera su primer episodio y fue cancelada después de siete episodios. [50] Colbert luego trabajó brevemente como escritor independiente para Saturday Night Live con Robert Smigel. Smigel llevó su dibujo animado, El dúo ambiguamente gay , a SNL de The Dana Carvey Show ; Colbert prestó la voz de Ace en ambas series, junto a Steve Carell como Gary. Necesitando dinero, también trabajó como consultor de guiones para VH1 y MTV , antes de aceptar un trabajo filmando segmentos corresponsales humorísticos para Good Morning America . [34] Sólo dos de los segmentos que propuso se produjeron y sólo uno salió al aire, pero el trabajo llevó a su agente a referirlo a la productora de The Daily Show , Madeline Smithberg , quien contrató a Colbert a modo de prueba en 1997. [51]
Extraños con Candy (1999-2000)
Durante el mismo período, Colbert volvió a trabajar con Sedaris y Dinello para desarrollar una nueva serie de comedia para Comedy Central, Strangers with Candy . Comedy Central retomó la serie en 1998 después de que Colbert ya había comenzado a trabajar en The Daily Show . Como resultado, aceptó un papel reducido, filmando solo alrededor de 20 segmentos de Daily Show al año mientras trabajaba en la nueva serie. [34]
Strangers with Candy fue concebida como una parodia de los especiales extracurriculares , siguiendo la vida de Jerri Blank , un desertor de 46 años que regresa para terminar la escuela secundaria después de 32 años de vida en la calle. Más conocido por los críticos por su uso de humor ofensivo, concluyó cada episodio entregando a la audiencia una lección moral sesgada y políticamente incorrecta. [52] Colbert se desempeñó como escritor principal junto a Sedaris y Dinello, e interpretó al estricto pero desinformado maestro de historia de Jerri, Chuck Noblet , al que se ve a lo largo de la serie distribuyendo información inexacta en sus clases. Colbert ha comparado esto con el personaje que interpretó en The Daily Show y más tarde en The Colbert Report , afirmando que tiene un nicho muy específico en la interpretación de personajes "idiotas mal informados y de alto estatus". [11] Otro chiste corriente a lo largo de la serie fue que Noblet, un homosexual encerrado , estaba teniendo una aventura "secreta" con su compañero profesor Geoffrey Jellineck , a pesar de que su relación era evidente para todos los que los rodeaban. Este olvido también aparece en el personaje de Colbert's Daily Show y Colbert Report .
Se hicieron treinta episodios de Strangers with Candy , que se emitió en Comedy Central en 1999 y 2000. [53] Aunque sus índices de audiencia no fueron notables durante su ejecución inicial, se ha caracterizado como un programa de culto con una audiencia pequeña pero dedicada. [54] Colbert repitió su papel para una adaptación cinematográfica , que se estrenó en el Festival de Cine de Sundance en 2005 y tuvo un lanzamiento limitado en 2006. La película recibió críticas mixtas. Colbert también coescribió el guión con Sedaris y Dinello. [55]
The Daily Show (1997-2005)
Colbert se unió al elenco de la serie de noticias de parodia de Comedy Central The Daily Show en 1997, cuando el programa estaba en su segunda temporada. Originalmente, uno de los cuatro corresponsales que filmaron segmentos desde ubicaciones remotas al estilo de los reporteros de campo de las noticias de la red, se refirió a Colbert como "el chico nuevo" en el aire durante sus primeros dos años en el programa, tiempo durante el cual Craig Kilborn actuó como presentador. . Cuando Kilborn dejó el programa antes de la temporada de 1999, Jon Stewart se hizo cargo de las funciones de anfitrión, y también se desempeñó como escritor y coproductor ejecutivo. A partir de este punto, la serie comenzó gradualmente a adquirir un tono más político y a aumentar su popularidad, particularmente en la última parte de la temporada de elecciones presidenciales de Estados Unidos del 2000 . Los roles de los corresponsales del programa se ampliaron para incluir más segmentos en el estudio e informes internacionales, que casi siempre se realizaban en el estudio con la ayuda de una pantalla verde . [34]
A diferencia de Stewart, quien esencialmente presentó The Daily Show como él mismo, [56] Colbert desarrolló un personaje corresponsal para sus piezas en la serie. Colbert ha descrito a su corresponsal como "un tonto que ha pasado gran parte de su vida jugando a no ser tonto - alguien que es capaz de cubrirlo al menos lo suficientemente bien como para tratar con los temas que trata". [34] Colbert se enfrentó con frecuencia a sujetos de entrevistas con conocimientos, o contra Stewart en intercambios con guión, con el diálogo resultante demostrando la falta de conocimiento del personaje sobre cualquier tema que esté discutiendo. [57] [34] Colbert también hizo un uso generoso de falacias humorísticas de la lógica al explicar su punto de vista sobre cualquier tema. Otros corresponsales del Daily Show han adoptado un estilo similar; El ex corresponsal Rob Corddry recuerda que cuando él y Ed Helms se unieron por primera vez al elenco del programa en 2002, "simplemente imitaron a Stephen Colbert durante uno o dos años". [58] El corresponsal Aasif Mandvi ha declarado "Acabo de decidir que iba a hacer mi mejor impresión de Stephen Colbert". [59]
Colbert apareció en varios segmentos recurrentes de The Daily Show , incluido " Even Stevphen " con Steve Carell , [60] en el que se esperaba que ambos personajes debatieran sobre un tema seleccionado, pero que en cambio desataran su enojo el uno con el otro. Colbert solía presentar " Esta semana en Dios ", un informe sobre temas de las noticias relacionadas con la religión, presentado con la ayuda de la "Máquina de Dios". Colbert presentó informes desde el piso de la Convención Nacional Demócrata y la Convención Nacional Republicana como parte de la galardonada cobertura de The Daily Show de las elecciones presidenciales de Estados Unidos de 2000 y 2004 ; muchos de estos últimos se incluyeron como parte de su lanzamiento en DVD The Daily Show: Indecision 2004 . Otras piezas que han sido nombradas como sus segmentos característicos incluyen "Grouse Hunting in Shropshire", en la que informa sobre la "homosexualidad" de la aristocracia británica, su simulacro de exaltación de un activista por los derechos de fumar y aparente fumador empedernido, y sus apariciones especiales. durante su falsa campaña para presidente. [61] En varios episodios de The Daily Show , Colbert ocupó el puesto de presentador en ausencia de Jon Stewart, incluida la semana completa del 3 de marzo de 2002, cuando Stewart estaba programado para presentar Saturday Night Live . Después de que Colbert dejó el programa, Rob Corddry se hizo cargo de los segmentos de "This Week in God", aunque una muestra grabada de la voz de Colbert todavía se usa como efecto de sonido para God Machine. Los episodios posteriores de The Daily Show han reutilizado segmentos antiguos de Colbert bajo la etiqueta "Klassic Kolbert". Colbert ganó tres premios Emmy como escritor de The Daily Show en 2004, 2005 y 2006. [62]
El Informe Colbert (2005-2014)
Colbert presentó su propio programa de televisión, The Colbert Report , desde el 17 de octubre de 2005 hasta el 18 de diciembre de 2014. [63] The Colbert Report fue un spin-off de Daily Show que parodiaba las convenciones de la transmisión de noticias por televisión , [20] particularmente por cable. -Programas de entrevistas políticas de personalidad como The O'Reilly Factor , Hannity y Glenn Beck . [36] [64] Colbert presentó el programa en su personaje como un fanático experto de derecha , generalmente considerado como una extensión de su personaje en The Daily Show . Concebida por los co-creadores Stewart, Colbert y Ben Karlin en parte como una oportunidad para explorar "las noticias impulsadas por los personajes", la serie se centró menos en el estilo de noticias del día a día del Daily Show , en lugar de concentrarse con frecuencia en el debilidades del propio personaje anfitrión. [sesenta y cinco]
El concepto de The Report se vio por primera vez en una serie de segmentos del Daily Show que anunciaban la serie ficticia como una broma. Más tarde fue desarrollado por Stewart's Busboy Productions y presentado a Comedy Central, que dio luz verde al programa; Comedy Central ya había estado buscando una manera de extender la exitosa franquicia Daily Show más allá de media hora. [66] La serie se abrió con fuertes índices de audiencia, con un promedio de 1,2 millones de espectadores cada noche durante su primera semana en el aire. Comedy Central firmó un contrato a largo plazo para The Colbert Report dentro de su primer mes en el aire, cuando inmediatamente se estableció entre los programas de mayor audiencia de la cadena. [67] [68]
Gran parte de la vida personal de Colbert se reflejó en su personaje en The Colbert Report . Con la exposición prolongada del personaje en el programa, a menudo hizo referencia a su interés y conocimiento del catolicismo, la ciencia ficción y El señor de los anillos , además de utilizar hechos reales para crear la historia de su personaje. Su personaje alternativo también se crió en Carolina del Sur , es el menor de 11 hermanos y está casado. [69] Sin embargo, la historia real de la carrera de Colbert en la actuación y la comedia a menudo se minimizaba o incluso se negaba rotundamente, y con frecuencia se refería a haber asistido a Dartmouth College (que estaba a la vanguardia del movimiento conservador del campus en la década de 1980) en lugar de su alma real. mater, noroeste. En julio de 2012, Colbert agregó dos años a su contrato con Comedy Central, extendiendo la ejecución de The Colbert Report hasta finales de 2014. [70]
El episodio final el 18 de diciembre de 2014, contó con una interpretación de " Nos reuniremos de nuevo " y apariciones de antiguos invitados del programa, incluidos Jon Stewart , Randy Newman , Bryan Cranston , Willie Nelson , Yo-Yo Ma , Mandy Patinkin , Neil deGrasse Tyson , Tom Brokaw , David Gregory , JJ Abrams , Big Bird , Gloria Steinem , Ken Burns , James Franco , Barry Manilow , Bob Costas , Jeff Daniels , Sam Waterston , Bill de Blasio , Katie Couric , Patrick Stewart , George Lucas , Henry Kissinger , Cookie Monster , Alan Alda , Eliot Spitzer , Vince Gilligan , Paul Krugman y un texto de Bill Clinton , y apariciones de Alex Trebek, las fuerzas estadounidenses y de la coalición de Afganistán, y otros personajes (un astronauta de la estación espacial, Santa, Abraham Lincoln , etc.). [63]
The Late Show (desde 2015)
El 10 de abril de 2014, CBS anunció en un comunicado de prensa [71] que Colbert "sucederá a David Letterman como presentador de The Late Show , efectivo cuando el Sr. Letterman se retire de la transmisión". El 12 de enero de 2015, CBS anunció que Colbert se estrenaría como presentador de Late Show el martes 8 de septiembre de 2015. [72] El primer invitado del nuevo Late Show fue George Clooney . [73] El programa tiene un enfoque mucho más político que Late Show de David Letterman . [74] [75]
Durante su mandato como presentador de The Late Show , Colbert fue anfitrión de la 69a edición de los Primetime Emmy Awards , transmitida por CBS el 17 de septiembre de 2017. [76]
Política
Cena de corresponsales de la Casa Blanca de 2006
El sábado 29 de abril de 2006, Colbert fue el animador destacado de la Cena de la Asociación de Corresponsales de la Casa Blanca de 2006 . De pie a unos metros del presidente de Estados Unidos, George W. Bush [77] , frente a una audiencia que Associated Press llamó un "Quién es quién del poder y la celebridad" [78] , Colbert lanzó una ardiente rutina dirigida al presidente y los medios de comunicación. [79] En su carácter políticamente conservador del Informe Colbert , Colbert satirizó a la Administración de George W. Bush y al Cuerpo de Prensa de la Casa Blanca con líneas como:
Apoyo a este hombre. Apoyo a este hombre porque defiende las cosas. No solo por las cosas, él se mantiene firme en las cosas. Cosas como portaaviones y escombros y plazas de ciudades recientemente inundadas. Y eso envía un mensaje contundente, que no importa lo que le suceda a Estados Unidos, ella siempre se recuperará, con las sesiones fotográficas más poderosas del mundo. [80]
Colbert recibió una fría respuesta de la audiencia. [81] Sus bromas a menudo fueron recibidas con silencio y murmullos, además de la risa entusiasta de algunos en la audiencia. [82] Los principales medios de comunicación le prestaron poca atención inicialmente. El columnista del Washington Post Dan Froomkin y el profesor de Periodismo de la Universidad de Columbia , Todd Gitlin, afirmaron que esto se debía a que la rutina de Colbert era tan crítica con los medios como con Bush. [83] [84] Richard Cohen , también escribiendo para The Washington Post , respondió que la rutina no era divertida. [85] El video de la actuación de Colbert se convirtió en una sensación en Internet y los medios, [86] [87] mientras que, en la semana siguiente al discurso, las calificaciones de The Colbert Report aumentaron un 37% para promediar un poco menos de 1,5 millones de espectadores totales por episodio. [88] En la revista Time , James Poniewozik lo llamó "la cuestión de la piedra de toque político-cultural de 2006". [89] Escribiendo seis meses después, el columnista del New York Times Frank Rich se refirió al discurso de Colbert como una "primaria cultural" y lo llamó el "momento decisivo" de las elecciones intermedias de 2006 . [90] [91]
Candidatura presidencial de 2008
Bajo su personaje ficticio en The Colbert Report , Colbert dejó caer indicios de una posible carrera presidencial a lo largo de 2007, y la especulación se intensificó después del lanzamiento de su libro, I Am America (And So Can You!) , Que se rumoreaba que era una señal de que él de hecho, estaba probando las aguas para una futura candidatura a la Casa Blanca. El 16 de octubre de 2007, anunció su candidatura en su programa, declarando su intención de postularse tanto en la plataforma republicana como en la demócrata , pero solo como " hijo favorito " en su natal Carolina del Sur. [92] Más tarde abandonó los planes de postularse como republicano debido a la tarifa de $ 35,000 requerida para presentar su candidatura a las primarias de Carolina del Sur; [93] sin embargo, siguió buscando un lugar en la boleta electoral demócrata y el 28 de octubre de 2007 hizo campaña en la capital del estado de Carolina del Sur, Columbia, donde el alcalde Bob Coble le entregó la llave de la ciudad. [94]
Después de anunciar su candidatura presidencial, pidió a sus espectadores que emitieran sus votos mediante una donación a Donorschoose.org , una organización benéfica en línea que conecta a las personas con las aulas necesitadas. [95] La promoción de Colbert inspiró 68.000 dólares en donaciones a las aulas de Carolina del Sur, que beneficiaron a más de 14.000 estudiantes de bajos ingresos. [96] Colbert se asoció con Donorschoose.org nuevamente en 2008 pidiendo a los partidarios de Barack Obama y Hillary Clinton que hicieran lo mismo. Como paso previo a las primarias de Pensilvania, creó una "encuesta de opinión que marca la diferencia" mediante la cual las personas podrían donar a proyectos de clase de Pensilvania en honor a su candidato favorito. [97] Los espectadores de Colbert donaron $ 185,000 a proyectos que llegaban a 43,000 estudiantes en las escuelas públicas de Pensilvania. [98]
El 1 de noviembre de 2007, el consejo ejecutivo del Partido Demócrata de Carolina del Sur votó 13–3 para rechazar la solicitud de Colbert en la boleta. "El sentido general del consejo era que él no era un candidato serio y por eso no fue seleccionado para estar en la boleta", dijo John Werner, director del partido. Además, fue declarado "inviable", [99] ya que se postulaba en un solo estado. [100] Varios días después anunció que se retiraba de la carrera, diciendo que no deseaba someter al país a una batalla agonizante en la Corte Suprema . [101] CNN ha informado que los partidarios de Obama presionaron al Consejo Ejecutivo Demócrata de Carolina del Sur para que mantuviera a Colbert fuera de la boleta. Un miembro anónimo del consejo le dijo a CNN que la ex Superintendente de Educación del Estado, Inez Tenenbaum, los había presionado para que rechazaran la solicitud de Colbert a pesar de su constante aumento en las encuestas. [102]
Aunque la campaña presidencial de la vida real de Colbert había terminado, el editor en jefe de Marvel Comics , Joe Quesada, estableció en una entrevista en The Colbert Report que la campaña de Colbert todavía estaba siendo fuerte en el Universo Marvel ficticio , citando la portada de un número reciente. de The Amazing Spider-Man, que presentaba una valla publicitaria de la campaña de Colbert de fondo. Las apariciones de fondo de los anuncios de la campaña de Colbert continuaron apareciendo en las publicaciones de Marvel Comics, hasta en agosto de 2008 en Secret Invasion No. 5 (que también presenta un cameo de un extraterrestre Skrull haciéndose pasar por Colbert). En octubre de 2008, Colbert hizo una aparición extendida de 8 páginas con Spider-Man en el número 573 de The Amazing Spider-Man . [103] Colbert expresó al presidente de los EE. UU. En la película de 2009 Monsters vs. Aliens .
2009 solidaridad con las tropas estadounidenses en la guerra de Irak
Stephen Colbert llegó a Bagdad, Irak , el 5 de junio de 2009, para filmar una semana de programas llamados "Operación Stephen iraquí: Going Commando " patrocinado por USO (United Service Organisations). [104] Colbert tenía un traje hecho a su medida con el patrón de Uniforme de Combate del Ejército . [105] Durante el primer episodio (que contó con un cameo del presidente estadounidense Barack Obama ), Colbert se cortó el pelo al estilo militar para mostrar su solidaridad con las tropas. Un comandante del ejército dijo que "afeitarse el cabello es una muestra de apoyo asombrosa" que fue "muy conmovedora". El vicepresidente senior de USO, John Hanson, dijo que los espectáculos son una distracción importante para las tropas. [106]
Testimonio del Congreso de 2010
El 24 de septiembre de 2010, Colbert testificó personalmente ante el Subcomité Judicial de Inmigración, Ciudadanía y Seguridad Fronteriza de la Cámara. La presidenta del comité, Zoe Lofgren, lo invitó a describir su experiencia al participar en el programa "Take Our Jobs" de United Farm Workers , donde pasó un día trabajando junto a trabajadores migrantes en el norte del estado de Nueva York. [107] [108] [109] Al final de su testimonio a menudo humorístico, Colbert rompió el carácter al responder a una pregunta de la representante Judy Chu , demócrata de California, y explicó su propósito de estar en la audiencia:
Me gusta hablar de personas que no tienen ningún poder, y esto parece que una de las personas menos poderosas en los Estados Unidos son los trabajadores migrantes que vienen y hacen nuestro trabajo, pero no tienen ningún derecho como resultado. Y, sin embargo, los invitamos a venir aquí y al mismo tiempo les pedimos que se vayan. Y esa es una contradicción interesante para mí. Y, ya sabes, 'Hagas lo que hagas por el más pequeño de mis hermanos', y estos parecen los más pequeños de nuestros hermanos en este momento ... Los trabajadores migrantes sufren y no tienen derechos. [110]
El miembro del comité demócrata John Conyers cuestionó si era apropiado que el comediante compareciera ante el Congreso y le pidió que abandonara la audiencia. [111] Aunque Colbert se ofreció a partir bajo la dirección de la presidenta del comité, Lofgren solicitó que se quedara al menos hasta que se hubiera completado todo el testimonio inicial, por lo que Conyers retiró su solicitud. [112]
Los expertos conservadores apuntaron al testimonio de Colbert en el Congreso poco después. [113]
“Dolorosamente incómodo y sin sentido, hizo que los miembros mayoritarios del comité parecieran ridículos. Colbert puede ser muy divertido, pero su tipo de sarcasmo solo funciona en algunos contextos, y una sala de audiencias del comité de la Cámara no parece ser uno de ellos '. - Yuval Levin, The Corner [111] [114] 'Como señala John Conyers, los medios de comunicación y los espectadores resultaron para ver si Colbert se dirigía al panel en serio como un experto en inmigración y haría del panel una broma, o se mantendría en el personaje y haz del panel una broma más grande '- Ed Morrissey , Hot Air. [111] [115]
Manifestaciones de 2010 en Washington, DC
En septiembre de 2010, a raíz de Glenn Beck 's restaura la reunión del honor , desarrolló una campaña que llamó a Colbert para mantener su concentración en el Lincoln Memorial . [116] El 10 de septiembre de 2010, episodio del Daily Show [117] y The Colbert Report , Stewart y Colbert hicieron anuncios previos de un evento futuro. El 16 de septiembre de 2010, Stewart y Colbert anunciaron manifestaciones en competencia en el Washington, DC, Mall el 30 de octubre de 2010, " Rally para restaurar la cordura " de Stewart y " Marcha para mantener vivo el miedo " de Colbert . Ambos finalmente se fusionaron en el Rally para restaurar la cordura y / o el miedo .
Super PAC and South Carolina Republican primary
In May 2011, Colbert filed a request with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) asking for a media exemption for coverage of his political action committee, ColbertPAC, on The Colbert Report.[118][119]
In June 2011, during a public meeting, the FEC voted 5–1 to grant The Colbert Report a limited media exemption. The exemption allows unlimited donations of airtime and show resources to promote the Colbert Super PAC without requiring disclosure to the FEC, but only for ads appearing on The Colbert Report. Following the hearing, Colbert formally filed paperwork for the creation of his Super PAC with the FEC secretary.[120]
After the 2012 New Hampshire primary, a poll for the subsequent South Carolina primary taken by Public Policy Polling (of 1,112 likely GOP voters, Jan 5–7, 2012) was reported to place Colbert at 5%, one point ahead of Jon Huntsman polling at 4%, in spite of the fact that Colbert was not on the ballot. This poll showed Colbert to be closely behind Rick Perry's 7% and Ron Paul's 8% (with Romney at 27%, Gingrich 23% and Santorum at 18%). On the January 11 episode of The Colbert Report, Colbert asked his audience if he should run for president in South Carolina, to which he received strong applause. He then stated that he would be making a "Major Announcement" during the next day's show. On January 12, Colbert started his show by discussing his role in the presidential campaign, then addressed the law preventing him from being a presidential candidate while running his Super PAC. With the help of his lawyer Trevor Potter, he then signed over control of his Super PAC to Jon Stewart, with the organization title then being referred to as "The Definitely Not Coordinating With Stephen Colbert Super PAC".[121] Immediately after this legal block was out of the way, Colbert announced, "I am forming an exploratory committee to lay the groundwork for my possible candidacy for the President of the United States of South Carolina. I'm doin' it!" He reiterated in the interview portion of that show that "I'm still in the exploratory phase" of his presidential campaign.
On the January 16, 2012, episode, Colbert satirically encouraged his viewers to vote for Herman Cain in the South Carolina primary. As Cain was still on the ballot, despite having recently dropped out of the race, Colbert announced that he would consider any votes cast for Cain to be in direct support of his own possible candidacy.

Colbert is co-author of the satirical text-and-picture novel Wigfield: The Can Do Town That Just May Not, which was published in 2003 by Hyperion Books. The novel was a collaboration between Colbert, Amy Sedaris, and Paul Dinello, and tells the story of a small town threatened by the impending destruction of a massive dam. The narrative is presented as a series of fictional interviews with the town's residents, accompanied by photos. The three authors toured performing an adaptation of Wigfield on stage the same year the book was released.[122][123]
Colbert appeared in a small supporting role in the 2005 film adaptation of Bewitched.

He voiced the characters of Reducto and Phil Ken Sebben in the Adult Swim's Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law, but left the show in 2005 to work on The Colbert Report. His characters were both killed, though he returned to voice Phil for the series finale. Colbert also has provided voices for Cartoon Network's The Venture Bros., Comedy Central's Crank Yankers, and American Dad!, and for Canadian animated comedy series The Wrong Coast.

Colbert is a producer of The 1 Second Film, the world's largest nonprofit collaborative art film. His video request that IMDb list his credit for The 1 Second Film ("it is as valid as most of my credits") enabled thousands of the film's producers to be listed in the massive movie database until they were removed in early 2007.[128]
Colbert has released one book associated with The Colbert Report, I Am America (And So Can You!). It was released on October 7, 2007, by Grand Central Publishing. Grand Central Publishing is the successor to Warner Books, which published America (The Book), written by The Daily Show staff. The book contains similar political satire, but was written primarily by Colbert himself rather than as a collaboration with his Colbert Report writing staff.[129]

J. Abrams, David Itzkoff, Ethan Hawke, Rachel Weisz, and Meryl Streep.[138][139] He is also part of the Montclair Film advisory board.[140]
After the resignation of South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint to run Heritage Foundation, Colbert was named a possible candidate for appointment to the seat being vacated by DeMint, which would have triggered a special election in 2014 to finish out DeMint's term. Although Governor Nikki Haley announced promptly that she had no intention to nominate Colbert to the Senate, a poll showed Colbert as a favorite among South Carolina voters.[141][142]
Colbert guest-hosted Only in Monroe, a public access television show in Monroe, Michigan, for an episode that aired July 1, 2015. He interviewed the program's regular hosts, and also the rapper Eminem (whom he pretended never to have heard of), and put a humorous slant on the local news and community calendar.[143][144]
On July 17, 2016, Colbert hijacked the 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio, while dressed as Caesar Flickerman from The Hunger Games series.[145][146] After he was taken down from the stage, he commented, "Look, I know I am not supposed to be up here but let's be honest, neither is Donald Trump."[147] Colbert also dressed as Flickerman on his show, prior to the stunt, to announce the candidates who had ended their runs in the 2016 election.[148]
Aside from hosting his talk shows, Colbert has gone on to host other types of shows. Since 2014, Colbert has hosted the Kennedy Center Honors for three consecutive years.[149][150][151] In 2017, Colbert hosted the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards.[152]
In 2018 it was reported that Showtime was developing, Hello Nancy, a biopic based on the nonfiction book On Her Trail, My Mother, Nancy Dickerson, TV News' First Woman Star by John Dickerson, with Colbert and his wife Evelyn serving as executive producers.[153][154] The couple also served as executive producers for In & Of Itself, a film version of Derek DelGaudio's off-Broadway show of the same name.[155]
Influencias

Vida personal
Colbert is a practicing Roman Catholic and used to teach Sunday school. He is an ordained minister with the Universal Life Church Monastery.[18][179][180][181][182] Colbert is an avid reader and has cited authors: J.R.R. Tolkien, J.D. Salinger, Robertson Davies, George Saunders, Larry Niven, Henry Kuttner and Isaac Asimov as his favorites, among others.[183]
Colbert has been married to Evelyn "Evie" McGee-Colbert since 1993.[184] She is the daughter of prominent Charleston civil litigator Joseph McGee, of the firm Buist Moore Smythe McGee. His wife appeared with him in an episode of Strangers with Candy as his mother.[185] She also had an uncredited cameo as a nurse in the series pilot and a credited one (as his wife Clair) in the film. McGee-Colbert actually met Jon Stewart before she met her future husband in 1990. They met at the world premiere of Hydrogen Jukebox at the Spoleto Festival USA in Charleston. Colbert later described the first moment he met Evie as being a love at first sight encounter; however, moments after they met, they both realized they had grown up together in Charleston and had many mutual friends.[186][187]
The couple have three children. They live in Montclair, New Jersey.[188][21]
During his college and Second City years, Colbert suffered from bouts of depression and anxiety, for which he had to be medicated.[182][189][190][191] In a 2018 interview, Colbert told Rolling Stone:
I needed to be medicated when I was younger to deal with my anxiety that I had thrown my life away by attempting to do something that so few people actually get away with, or succeed at ... Xanax was just lovely. Y'know, for a while. And then I realized that the gears were still smoking. I just couldn't hear them anymore. But I could feel them, I could feel the gearbox heating up and smoke pouring out of me ... I stopped the Xanax after, like, nine days. I went, 'This isn't helping.' So I just suffered through it. I'd sometimes hold the bottle, to go like, 'I could stop this feeling if I wanted, but I'm not going to. Because I know if I stop the feeling, somehow I'm not working through it, like I have got to go through the tunnel with the spiders in it.'
And then one morning I woke up and my skin wasn't on fire, and it took me a while to figure out what it was. I wake up the next morning, I'm perfectly fine, to the point where my body's still humming. I'm a bell that's been rung so hard that I can still feel myself vibrating. But the actual sound was gone [because] I was starting rehearsal that day to create a new show. And then I went, 'Oh, my God, I can never stop performing.' Creating something is what helped me from just spinning apart like an unweighted flywheel. And I haven't stopped since.[192]
Colbert used the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator during a segment of The Late Show, which identified him as an INFP.[193]
Political views
Although, by his own account, he was not particularly political before joining the cast of The Daily Show, Colbert has described himself as a Democrat according to a 2004 interview.[194][195] In an interview at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard Institute of Politics, he said he has "no problems with Republicans, just Republican policies".[196]
Colbert supports the implementation of the Medicare for All plan introduced by Bernie Sanders, considering it "a sensible fix to Obamacare".[197] When asked about his views on abortion, Colbert positioned himself as pro-choice.[198] On the intersection of faith and politics, Colbert has pointed out that his views are in line with those of Cesar Chávez.[199][200][201]
Premios y honores
In 2000, Colbert and the other Daily Show writers were the recipients of three Emmy Awards as writers for The Daily Show and again in 2005 and 2006. In 2005 he was nominated for a Satellite Award for his performance on The Colbert Report and again in 2006.[62] He was also nominated for three Emmys for The Colbert Report in 2006, including Best Performance in a Variety, Musical Program or Special, which he lost to Barry Manilow.[202] Manilow and Colbert would go on to jokingly sign and notarize a revolving biannual custody agreement for the Emmy on The Colbert Report episode aired on October 30, 2006. He lost the same category to Tony Bennett in 2007 and Don Rickles in 2008.
In January 2006, the American Dialect Society named truthiness, which Colbert coined on the premiere episode of The Colbert Report, as its 2005 Word of the Year. Colbert devoted time on five successive episodes to bemoaning the failure of the Associated Press to mention his role in popularizing the word truthiness in its news coverage of the Word of the Year.[203][204] On December 9, 2006, Merriam-Webster also announced that it selected truthiness as its Word of the Year for 2006. Votes were accepted on their website, and according to poll results, "truthiness" won by a five-to-one margin.[205]
In June 2006, after speaking at the school's commencement ceremony, Colbert received an honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts degree from Knox College.[206] Time named Stephen Colbert as one of the 100 most influential people in 2006 and 2012[7][8] and in May 2006, New York magazine listed Colbert (and Jon Stewart) as one of its top dozen influential persons in media.[207] Colbert was named Person of the Year by the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado on March 3, 2007,[208] and was also given the Speaker of the Year Award by The Cross Examination Debate Association (CEDA) on March 24, 2007, for his "drive to expose the rhetorical shortcomings of contemporary political discourse".[209]

Ben & Jerry's AmeriCone Dream ice cream
In February 2007, Ben & Jerry's unveiled a new ice cream flavor in honor of Colbert, named Stephen Colbert's AmeriCone Dream. Colbert waited until Easter to sample the ice cream because he "gave up sweets for Lent".[241] Colbert donated all proceeds to charity through the new Stephen Colbert AmeriCone Dream Fund, which distributes the money to various causes.[242][243]
Species named in honor
At least five species have been given scientific names honoring Colbert. In 2008 a species of California trapdoor spider was named Aptostichus stephencolberti.[244][245][246] The spider was named for Colbert after he reported on his television series that Jason Bond, a professor of biology at East Carolina University, had named a different species of spider Myrmekiaphila neilyoungi after the Canadian rock star Neil Young, and began to appeal for a species of animal to be named after him.[247] On a later edition of The Colbert Report, Colbert revealed that Bond would name a spider after him, with Colbert claiming, "And all I had to do was shamelessly beg on national television."[248] Other species named for Colbert include a species of Venezuelan diving beetle named Agaporomorphus colberti and a Chilean stonefly named Diamphipnoa colberti, both formally described in 2008.[249][250] On his 45th birthday, Colbert was sent a framed print of his eponymous beetle by the biologists who named it.[251] In 2014, a species of parasitic wasp from Ecuador, Aleiodes colberti, was named for Colbert, along with newly described species named for celebrities Jon Stewart, Jimmy Fallon, Ellen DeGeneres, and Shakira,[252][253] and in 2016 a rove beetle, Sonoma colberti, was named after Colbert's on-screen persona.[254]
COLBERT Treadmill
In 2009, NASA engineered a new treadmill for the International Space Station. It was brought to the ISS by the Space Shuttle Discovery during the STS-128 mission in August 2009. The complex machine is now used eight hours daily by astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station in order to maintain their muscle mass and bone density while spending long periods of time in a zero-gravity environment. While engineers at NASA were constructing this treadmill, it was simply called T-2 for more than two years. However, on April 14, 2009, NASA renamed it the "Combined Operational Load-Bearing External Resistance Treadmill", or COLBERT.[255] NASA named the treadmill after Colbert,[256] who took an interest during the Node 3 naming census for the ISS module, Tranquility.
Colbert urged his followers to post the name "Colbert", which upon completion of the census received the most entries totaling 230,539, some 40,000 votes more than the second-place choice, Serenity.[257] The COLBERT is expected to last the life of the ISS and will have seen about 38,000 miles of running when the Space Station is retired in 2024 or later,[258] but it was also built with a 150,000-mile lifespan (if needed until 2028 or beyond). Colbert realized he was the recipient of an extremely rare honor—the COLBERT (a backronym) is the only piece of NASA-engineered equipment in space that is named after a living human being—when astronaut Sunita Williams came on The Colbert Report to announce that NASA had named the treadmill after him.[259]

The specific epithet is a patronym, named in honor of Mr. Stephen Colbert. Mr. Colbert is a fellow citizen who truly has the courage of his convictions and is willing to undertake the very difficult and sometimes unpopular work of speaking out against those who have done irreparable harm to our country and the world through both action and inaction. He will be especially remembered by many of Jason Bond's generation for his speech at the 2006 White House Correspondents Dinner
