Colbert chosen as AP celebrity of the year.

Even though Stephen Colbert’s White House bid has ended, newspaper editors and broadcast producers have voted the comedian AP Celebrity of the Year because he had the “biggest impact on pop culture in 2007.” Author J.K. Rowling came in second, and Al Gore came in third. Colbert’s reaction to the honor:

Quote:

In receiving this award, I am pleased that I was chosen over two great spinners of fantasy — J.K. Rowling and Al Gore. It is truly an honor to be named the Associated Press’ Celebrity of the Year. Best of all, this makes me the official front-runner for next year’s Drug-Fueled Downward Spiral of the year. P.S. Look for my baby bump this spring!

I can't wait to see him go off on this when his show's back. in fact the closing segment of The Daily Show he's likely to do a "rub it in" skit on Stewart.
