Hurrah! THE USA Today has some of the goods on the Apple Store event from last night:
Colbert’s Q&A with actors gets smart — and a little naughty

Such was the case Wednesday night at Soho’s Apple store, which hosted a Q&A moderated by The Colbert Report’s Stephen Colbert featuring his former Second City and Daily Show cohort Steve Carell and actress Anne Hathaway. The latter two headline the comedy Get Smart, the big-screen version of the ’60s TV series opening Friday.
“Where does the myth come about that you’re a nice guy?” Colbert asked Carell in front of a loudly appreciative audience. “I’ve known you a long time. You are cutthroat.”
Within 30 minutes, Colbert managed to impugn Carell’s manhood, comedic talents and work ethic, while also mocking Hathaway’s looks and asking for her Manhattan address, presumably to hit on her later.

Hilarious! I’m very much hoping that iTunes will have the audio for us to listen to soon, but in the meantime, if you’re curious about Anne Hathaway’s dirty joke, you can read it here. (And yes, it’s totally dirty. And hilarious.)
Anne Hathaway rocks. I’m really looking forward to seeing “Get Smart” this weekend. Every interview I’ve seen of her for promos for this movie, she’s just been sparkling and happy and funny.

I went to the link to read the dirty joke, but they blocked it out! Did you notice how the author misspelled Dwayne, Stephen and Carell?!

It would have been impossible to miss the spelling errors, but it was still an amusing post.
Was it really blocked? I just tried it again and it worked fine. You have to hover your cursor over the block that says “SPOILER” (it seems to work better if you keep to the left-hand side of the box, which is where the text is); it’ll take a second or two, but the answer does pop up for me.

lmfao at Anne Hathaway’s joke! Wow, haha. And yeah, ColbertGirl27, just hover your cursor over the spoiler thing and you can see her answer. I was a little confused with that at first too.

Great joke! I bet they died laughing on the set as well. Man I wish I could have been there. That would be one major brain explosion for me!

“I just worked out with a trainer three or four times a week and ran three miles every morning…”
Oh, is that all? /snark
Well, I guess if you want legs like hers…

There’s a link to audio of the Q&A on the page. I dunno if anyone saw that, but it’s hilarious!

Oh, I can’t believe I missed that! I’m going to pop this out separately into a different post; thanks for pointing it out.
