Dame Helen Mirren was a guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Tuesday night, where she got the opportunity to cross an item off her bucket list by planting a giant, steamy kiss on the host as she made her entrance. Because while her “pleasure pillows” may be only for her husband now, apparently her lips are anybody’s game.
While Colbert was struggling to regain his composure, she told the audience, “If I didn’t do it then, I’d never get to do it! I have been dreaming of doing that for about 15 years. I just grabbed my chance, I’m so sorry.” I wouldn’t stress about it if I were her. Not many men would complain about a surprise smooch from the Dame herself, as Colbert stuttered out, “Wow. You have… You know what you’re doin’. You really know what you’re doin’!”
Suffice to say, it will probably go down as one of the more memorable entrances of Colbert’s late-night career. The ball’s in your court, Sir Ian McKellen.
