Piers Morgan's '90s Throwback Photo is a Who's Who of Hollywood Heavyweights
Piers Morgan's '90s Throwback Photo is a Who's Who of Hollywood Heavyweights originally appeared on Parade. Piers Morgan is looking back on the heyday of Hollywood. The controversial British talk show host, who recently caused a stir by criticizing Beyonce's Marilyn Monroe-inspired Levi's ad as "cultural appropriation," took to social media to post a throwback photo of himself alongside some of Hollywood's biggest heavyweights. Taken in 1993 when the popular chain restaurant Planet Hollywood opened, the photo shows Morgan bent down to pose for a photo alongside Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Bruce Willis, each wearing Planet Hollywood jackets. (The three were backers of the restaurant chain.) "Wow… someone randomly posted this photo on X today… it was taken in 1993 when Planet Hollywood opened in London and these three guys were the biggest movie action heroes in the world. It's so sad that Bruce is now enduring such a dreadful incurable illness (frontotemporal dementia). Had some fun times with him over the years, a great character as well as a great movie star. As are Sly and Arnie, two of my favourite stars to interview because they're always honest, funny and news-making," Morgan captioned the photo. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 No words if Morgan is still tight with that squad. However, one person we assume Morgan won't be hanging out with anytime soon is Stephen Colbert. In a recent tweet, Morgan made it clear that he won't be one of the many hosts lending his support to Colbert, whose program, The Late Show, was canceled. 'This is so damning,' Morgan wrote, posting a cover of the New York Post that referred to "The Left Show," a play on Colbert's left-leaning guests. 'Most of America's biggest late-night hosts have become nothing more than hyper-partisan activist hacks for the Democrats — a party that's rarely been more unpopular. No wonder Colbert got canned. More will follow.'Piers Morgan's '90s Throwback Photo is a Who's Who of Hollywood Heavyweights first appeared on Parade on Aug 12, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 12, 2025, where it first appeared.

Stephen Colbert's lefty lunacy: Letters to the Editor — July 29, 2025
The Issue: The cancellation of Stephen Colbert's 'The Late Show,' which is known for its anti-Trump humor. Stephen Colbert's restriction — or perhaps elimination — of guests from the right, and his puerile attempt at humor is simply not funny ('The Left Show with Stephen Colbert,' July 27). His monologues are a sad camouflage for his political agenda: unwarranted hatred for President Trump. Advertisement Ron Goldman Brooklyn Jay Leno is spot on when he says that late-night TV hosts are alienating half their audiences ('Leno's 'left' jab at comics,' July 28). Fewer people are watching to begin with, and these overrated, overpaid clowns just keep delivering the same old liberal garbage. Advertisement I believe the legacy media has just as much to do with it as the buffoons. One can only hope that other hosts besides Colbert get canceled. Rob Feuerstein Staten Island Advertisement At the end of the day, Colbert became a cult leader. He claims to be a devout Catholic, but he delivers a message of hate every night. He had every right to pounce and make jokes about Trump, but when does it become mean rather than meaningful? Life is tough enough these days; why incite people rather than calm them and let them forget about the world for an hour? Dan Ricciardi Advertisement Brooklyn Rather than continuing to lose millions on late-night talk shows or canceling them entirely, the mainstream networks should emulate the Greg Gutfeld model on Fox. Place your host on a chair in a room surrounded by several like-minded panelists and let them riff on the news of the day for a half hour. No cavernous theater that can seat a thousand sycophants; no multi-member band protected by union contracts; and, most of all, no guests I've never heard of pushing movies I don't want to see, songs I don't want to hear or books I don't want to read. Jim Vespe Mamaroneck Every morning, the NY POSTcast offers a deep dive into the headlines with the Post's signature mix of politics, business, pop culture, true crime and everything in between. Subscribe here! Only Colbert found his jokes about Trump funny. It seems the only time the audience laughed was when Colbert did one of his ridiculous dances and made a fool of himself. Advertisement The critics may be right about Trump being responsible for Colbert's ouster. His audience has been silenced and Trump has had the last laugh. Nicholas Maffei Yonkers I watched Stephen Colbert's 'Late Show' for the first time in many years. He was not funny, and the show was not entertaining. Maybe that is why it is being canceled.

He was a wrestler, actor and showman with a heart of gold. But more than that, Hogan was a true patriotic American, not to mention true MAGA all the way. He was a big supporter of President Trump and at the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee he ripped off his shirt in true Hulk Hogan style. He will truly be missed. My prayers go out to his family, friends and all Hulksters everywhere. Advertisement Frederick Bedell Jr. Bellerose We have lost another American icon. I am sure millions of young kids feel sadness like never before. He told all of them to always train, say your prayers and take your vitamins. He helped them to be the best they could ever be. I am positive there is a gym in heaven for him. He was a true hero. Kim Cody Whitestone Want to weigh in on today's stories?
