U.S. talk show host David Letterman publicly apologized to Paris Hilton on Friday night for hurting her feelings during an infamous 2007 interview. The late-night TV presenter upset the socialite when he grilled her about her prison stint last year and refused to change the subject when Hilton begged him to. So, when Hilton agreed to return to Letterman's Late Show to promote her new film The Hottie And The Nottie, the host decided it was time to make amends. Before introducing the hotel heiress, Letterman said, "I made a fool of myself and I hurt the woman's feelings. I went too far." The host revealed Hilton was adamant she'd never appear on the show again, but he tracked her down to apologize, sent her a letter and flowers, and implored her to change her mind: "I said... let me apologize to you in person. In 26 years of being on the air, I have offended thousands of people... but Paris, God bless her, has the backbone to come and be on the show." True to his word, Letterman began his chat with Hilton by apologizing for his behavior during their previous encounter, prompting his smiling guest to say, "I hope you got the whole jail thing out of your system." And the chat show host was on his best behavior, chatting to Hilton about her new film and helping her to promote her own sparkling wine, cell phone videogame and shoe, jewelry, watch, scent and clothing lines. The thrilled socialite had some kind words for the host when he asked her if she was glad to be back, stating, "You're being really well behaved so far. You're not being naughty." And, after swearing she'd return, Letterman presented Hilton with a bunch of flowers. imdb.com

Jim Carrey shocked fans on David Letterman's late night talk show last Monday, when he showed up in a bathrobe and then stripped naked. The comedian performed a skit pretending he'd forgotten about the switch to daylight saving time on Saturday night, and was being massaged in his hotel, when he should have been on the show. After dashing onto the set wearing just a robe, socks and slippers, Carrey told Letterman, "I was at a spa at the hotel. I was in the middle of an incredible massage. Then Svetlana started talking about daylight saving time. I immediately went flaccid and I ran right over here." He then hid behind a chair, stripped down to nothing and got dressed in clothes handed to him by an assistant called Lance. Carrey also produced a prop gun he told the host was for scaring paparazzi photographers: "I'm not a very good shot. It's really about the paparazzi. Once you start waving that about..." imdb.com

I never bother posting the guests on the repeats... would you like me to?

i always thought it was just channel ten showing repeats, it never occurred to me that it might be CBS doing it, but i suppose it makes sense if you think about it
