Stephen Colbert was so inspired by country singer Brad Paisley's new song, "Accidental Racist," that he's written his own.

Colbert said everyone can agree, "This song suuucks." And so, "This level of unifying suck-age has inspired me to write my own awful song." In an effort to bring people further together, Colbert's song is titled "Oopsie-Daisy Homophobe."

Watch the "awful" performance below.

Expect jokes. Possibly drag. But beneath the riotous banter and righteous shade, the “Free Andry" event is dead serious. Keep Reading →
