The Late Show host, 62, locked lips with both Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Pedro Pascal during Tuesday's episode of his CBS talk show, continuing a streak of on-air smooches just days before his long-running program airs its final episode.
"I got jealous," Pascal said after watching Colbert kiss Louis-Dreyfus earlier in the night, before promptly leaning in for one himself.
"No need, any time," Colbert replied. "These lips will soon be free."
The kissing spree actually began a night earlier, when Colbert welcomed fellow late-night hosts Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, John Oliver and Seth Meyers onto his Monday episode. The conversation turned to which of them had ever made out with guests on camera, and before long, Colbert had pulled Fallon in for a smooch that left the Tonight Show host visibly stunned.
On Tuesday, Louis-Dreyfus, 65, arrived armed with receipts. She had asked Colbert's producers to roll footage of him naming every guest he had kissed on the show, a list that includes Sally Field, Helen Mirren, Allison Janney, Andrew Garfield and Jeff Daniels.
After watching the clip, she turned to Colbert with a knowing look. "No one's watching," she said. "It's just between us." A peck on the lips and thunderous applause from the studio audience followed.
Pascal, 51, wasted no time when he took his seat. He simply pointed at his lips, raised his eyebrows, and joined the list.
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will air its final episode on May 21, after CBS canceled the show last July in what the network called a purely financial decision. Colbert had previously called out CBS parent company Paramount over its $16 million settlement with President Donald Trump.
