Stephen Colbert is out for a week He ruptured his appendix and had surgery for Thanksgiving.
He must be aggravated after missing a week for COVID just two weeks ago.
More importantly, Colbert used Threads as his social media for the announcement. He skipped Twitter X and Instagram. This means a lot.
He wrote: “Sorry to say that I have to cancel our shows this week. I’m sure you’re thinking, “Turkey overdose, Steve? Gravy boat capsize?” Actually, I’m recovering from surgery for a ruptured appendix. I’m grateful to my doctors for their care and to Evie and the kids for putting up with me. Going forward, all emails to my appendix will be handled by my pancreas.”
Stephen will get better, no doubt. But Twitter? If more celebrities turn to Threads and away from Elon Musk’s platform, emergency surgery will be needed!
