I saw this today and I laughed. But you didn't post the best part: the epic DDR battle between Our Hero Rain and Colbert.
I'm still down that Rain came second, but I'm getting over it. A DDR game chockablocked with dozens of Rain/Omarion songs would sell millions on the Wii. Millions I tell you.
Konami: you know what you have to do.

Came in second what? Rain won. They played DDR and his feet moved so fast that it exploded and Stephen got knocked down.

Just a hunch, Patrick, but I think Nigeria's talking about the Time magazine poll. >.>

I'm with you. Everything usually sounds forced out of his mouth.

"Everything usually sounds forced out of his mouth."
That's usually part of the humor.

......just ask Kpop-fans.
Tons of internet fangirls love the man, but Kpop fans would know how to describe him best.
But if you want to dodge the awful rantings of bouncy fans, just go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_%28entertainer%29

Oh. How exactly is a Korean popstar influential?

Rain is pretty influential. It influences my decision on whether to ride my bike to work or not, or what sort of jacket I should wear. Though I would think the Sun would be ranked higher...

SoshiKitai said...
Popstars are influential in the way that they take up media-reports and time... :P
But I suppose the real answer you're looking for is: He's so influential, he influenced enough fans to vote for him. :P

I thought the same thing when he won last year. Apparently, "influential" means you can get every single citizen of an entire country to vote for you in an online poll, even though the rest of the world has never heard of you. I guess I'd agree with that.

Maybe with luck Colbert can Shiggy to come on the show. But, I don't think Shiggy doesn't speak English.

I expected much more calling out of Shiggy.
and that DDR bit was a travesty.....Rain is Korean and therefore should have been playing Pump It Up

It's an American show made for an American audiance. Rain came to America to dance off, Colbert did not go to Korea.

Then they should have been playing ITG.
That's almost as american as Colbert himself.

Colbert is a comedy GOD, and if you can't see the humor in what he does, then you sir are soulless.

I'd rather fill my soul with the likes of Lil Jimmy Norton, Louis CK, Patrice Oniel, Patton Oswald, and the like.. Not comedians who see a barrel full of fish, and decide to make their career taking shots at it. Colbert, I'm looking at you. Making a mockery of someone who is already a mockery of themselves isn't funny, it's lame and self gratifying.
