Taylor Swift is set to make a highly-anticipated appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” tonight at 11:35 p.m. ET, just days ahead of the premiere of her six-part “Eras Tour” docuseries on Disney+, which begins streaming on December 12. This behind-the-scenes documentary promises to provide fans with an intimate look at how Swift managed to deliver her impressive marathon three-hour performances during the historic tour.
The announcement of Swift’s late-night appearance was made via a social media video that showcased Colbert dancing to Swift’s song “Opalite.” The clip humorously ended with Swift directly addressing Colbert, saying, “Hey Stephen,” a playful nod to her classic track from the “Fearless” album.
This visit to “The Late Show” marks Swift’s return to the late-night circuit, following a series of promotional appearances for her twelfth studio album, which was released in October. During her recent press tour, she made stops on various platforms, including “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,” “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” and “The Graham Norton Show.”
For those looking to catch Swift’s latest appearance, “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” airs live on CBS and is also available on streaming services such as Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, and DIRECTV. Moreover, viewers can watch the episode the day after it airs on Paramount+, where subscription plans start at $7.99 per month with ads or $12.99 ad-free.
Reflecting on past interactions, it’s worth noting that Swift’s last appearance on Colbert’s show was over four years ago. In April 2021, while promoting her album “Fearless (Taylor’s Version),” she clarified a rumor about the inspiration for her song “Hey Stephen.” Although she professed her admiration for Colbert and even showcased a vision board featuring his photos, Swift humorously revealed that the song is actually about the famed author Stephen King.
Fans are eagerly looking forward to tonight’s episode, anticipating both entertaining exchanges and insights into Swift’s incredible career.
