Morrissey Visits ‘The Colbert Report’ for Interview, Performance

Morrissey swung by 'The Colbert Report' last night (Oct. 9) to chat with Stephen Colbert and perform two songs: 'People Are the Same Everywhere', which aired on the Comedy Central show, and 'I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris,' which was recorded as a web exclusive. Both can be seen below.

Morrissey's sit-down with Colbert was a bit strange, if only because the singer doesn't hold back about anything -- especially animal rights (he demanded the entire 'Colbert' set go vegetarian for the day he was there filming) and the British Royal Family, who he called "absolutely horrible people" and "arrogant dictators."

Moz's current North American tour is in New York City for three shows and continues on through a Dec. 8 gig in Atlantic City, N.J. Check out his itinerary here.
