Pole Smoker Stephen Colbert Says CBS Asked Him Not to Show Kristen Stewart's Rolling Stone Cover; Stewart Says 'F- You' to the Homophobic Haters

Kristen Stewart has responded to critics of her recent Rolling Stone 
cover, which prompted controversy upon its release.

As a guest on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” Stewart was asked why 
she believes the cover, which shows her with her hand inside her 
jockstrap, has received such negative attention. Colbert initiated the 
conversation after revealing that CBS did not want him to show the cover 
on his show.

“Now before I show this cover, I just want you to know and the audience to 
know that I think it’s a perfectly lovely cover,” he said. “We were asked 
by CBS not to show it. They thought that would be not a good idea for us 
to show this, and I don’t know understand why. Because there’s the cover, 
right there,” he said, turning it around to face the audience.

“I want to say that you look better in a jockstrap than I ever did,” 
Colbert added, before asking the actor to comment on the criticism the 
image received.
