STEPHEN COLBERT Exposes Himself to Art (the Appropriate Way)
For some reason, Steve Martins visits to The Colbert Report always seem to bring out the erudite side of its host, Stephen Colbert. Back in December, when Mr. Martin came on to evaluate a portrait of Mr. Colbert, the segment turned into an art party crashed by Frank Stella, Shepard Fairey and Andres Serrano (not the sort of folks one expects to see just before midnight on Comedy Central). And when Mr. Martin returned to the show on Monday night, Mr. Colbert used the occasion to visit his portrait at the Phillips de Pury & Company gallery in Manhattan (where it was sold at a recent auction) and to subject the auction house chairman, Simon de Pury, to a typically tongue-in-cheek grilling. (Be prepared to find out who Mr. de Purys favorite rap artist is!).

‘Colbert Report’ to Lose a Key Executive
Comedy Central’s hit late-night show “The Colbert Report” announced Monday that the executive most closely associated with the show, Allison Silverman, was leaving her position as executive producer, effective immediately. No official reason was given for Ms. Silverman’s departure, nor was a replacement named. A Comedy Central spokeswoman said that with the series on hiatus for three weeks, no one was available to comment. But one executive from the cable channel said Ms. Silverman herself had initiated the change because she was seeking a respite from the exhausting demands of the job. In an official statement, the show’s Stephen Colbert said, “I am happy for my dear friend, but I will miss her.” In her official comment, Ms. Silverman said, “For me, the only thing that could top working with Stephen Colbert would be having Stephen Colbert as a lifelong friend, and I am very excited to start that project.” Ms. Silverman has been with the show since it began in October 2005, originally as co-head writer. She became executive producer in 2007.
