Kim Kardashian West hit up "Jimmy Kimmel Live," and you better believe she was asked about Bruce Jenner's transition. "Bruce is doing really well, he is so happy," she said. "It's a really brave thing to come out and be so truthful." Watch the clip for more of her reaction! Kim also taught Jimmy a valuable life lesson: how to take the perfect selfie. Unfortunately, Jimmy had a hard time taking the photo due to being distracted by her cleavage. #TheStruggleFirst Lady of the United States Michelle Obama visited "The Late Show," and David Letterman asked her point-blank if she's considering a presidential run ones Potus's term is up.

Robert Altman: Eclectic Maverick

Editor’s note: This article originally appeared in the April 1999 issue of Venice Magazine.
It's the Fall of 1977 and I'm a bored and rebellious ten year old in search of a new movie to occupy my underworked and creativity-starved brain, feeling far too mature for previous favorites Wily Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) and Return of the Pink Panther (1975), and wanting something more up-to-date and edgy than Chaplin's City Lights (1931). I needed a movie to call my favorite that would be symbolic of my own new-found manhood (and something that would really piss off my parents and teachers). Mom and Dad were going out for the evening, leaving me with whatever unfortunate baby-sitter happened to need the $10 badly enough to play mother hen to an obnoxiously precocious only child like myself. I scanned the TV Guide for what...

Is the world ready for Pope Bruce I? "Pray Hard"? Bruce Willis came out wearing a Papal hat for his appearance on "Late Show with David Letterman" and said he was ready to fill the position.
He later admitted that he almost turned down the role that would come to define so much of his career. Almost 25 years ago, he almost said no to being John McClane in "Die Hard." Not because he didn't like the role, but because he was just too busy.
"They called me a couple times when I was doing ‘Moonlighting,’ and I said I can’t do it, fellas," Willis explained. "I just can’t do it, I’m doing my show. And, thank God, Cybill Shepherd got pregnant and Glenn Caron gave us off 11 weeks and I went to go and do ‘Die Hard.'"

Following on from the two clips we saw from The Dark Knight Rises last night comes an aewsome extended look at a scene between Anne Hathaway’s Selina Kyle / Catwoman and Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s John Blake.
Warner Bros. have been working on a brilliant saturation campaign in recent weeks and months, and this latest clip comes courtesy of The Late Show with David Letterman over in the Us.
“Warner Bros. Pictures’ and Legendary Pictures’ “The Dark Knight Rises” is the epic conclusion to filmmaker Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy. It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon both hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was...

After being lowered via harness from 20 ft. above the stage, spun around on a Christmas tree, and wheeled out in a box, Bruce Kapler, saxophonist in the CBS Orchestra on The Late Show with David Letterman, has long since stopped asking what the writers have planned for his eagerly awaited entrance when he plays the iconic solo during Darlene Love's performance of "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" on the annual holiday broadcast.
On Friday, Dec. 23, Love, now a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, will grace Letterman's holiday show for the 18th time performing the very best Christmas song from the very best rock and roll Christmas album, A Christmas Gift for You From Phil Spector. As Edmund Gwenn's Kris Kringle proclaims in Miracle on 34th Street, "Christmas is a frame of mind," and nothing gets me more into the spirit of the season than Love belting...
