Jon Stewart

The 'Daily Show' host is coming back to television.

From Gabourey Sidibe's phone-sex operating past to Christopher Walken's stint as a lion timer, see the craziest things stars have done before making it big.

Class is in session. Sadly, legions of kids know this to be true, as they begin to head back to school for another year of filling their brains with knowledge.

Jon Stewart’s first attempt at a new HBO series may have been scrapped, but the former Daily Show host isn’t down and out. Not only will Stewart return to standup for the first time in twenty-one years with a new HBO special, but also headline a Night of Too Many Stars.

Jon Stewart said goodbye to The Daily Show last night in equal parts star-studded and quiet, personal fashion as former correspondents like Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert, John Oliver and Olivia Munn returned to pay their respects, while Bruce Springsteen closed out the slow with a performance — at Stewart’s request — of his 1999 song “The Land of Hopes and Dreams” and, for his fellow New Jerseyan, “Born to Run”.

"It's why Al Gore invented the internet." That's possibly the best tag line ever. EVER. I'm stoked for this. "The Rumble in the Air-Conditioned Auditiorium" will stream live on the internet for the low, low price of $4.95. Half of the proceeds will go to charities picked by Bill and Jon...
