At a recent Kennedy Center Honors, President Donald Trump, aged 79, had a mix-up that left many scratching their heads. He confused Stephen Colbert with Jimmy Kimmel, even cracking a joke about his own talent. The funny part? Kimmel wasn't even the host that night. Colbert had hosted the event from 2014 to 2016.
Colbert, always quick with a comeback, shared photos of himself hosting and humorously pointed out Trump's mistake. This wasn't the first time Trump made waves at the Kennedy Center. He was the first president to host the Honors and also attended the 2026 World Cup draw there. He even received the FIFA Peace Prize, which late-night hosts like Kimmel and Colbert joked about, calling it "fake. "
The Kennedy Center Honors, which started in 1978, are a big deal. They air on CBS and this year's event will be on December 23 on CBS and Paramount+. It's interesting how these events mix politics and entertainment, creating moments that make people talk and laugh.
