Former Playboy model claims Stephen Colbert made her feel uncomfortable on live TV in resurfaced interview

Former Playboy model claims Stephen Colbert made her feel uncomfortable on live TV in resurfaced interview

Former Playboy model Sarah McDaniel spoke out about Stephen Colbert making her feel uncomfortable on his late-night show in a resurfaced interview.

McDaniel, 29, was a guest on The Late Show in 2016, following her rise to fame as an influencer and a model. 

During her appearance she wore a brown sleeveless tube dress with a low-cut neckline, which caused her some issues as she repeatedly had to adjust it.

As she continued to struggle with the neckline, Colbert drew attention to the issue, as he asked her, ‘Can I get you some duct tape or a poncho?’ He went on to ask: ‘Are you cold? I just want to make sure. I would be cold if I was wearing that right now.’

And during a segment where she was instructing Colbert on selfie techniques, he brought back the attention to her cleavage once again, covering her chest up with a white sheet of paper. 

McDaniel went on to call the incident ‘extremely awkward’ and ‘probably the worst moment of my life’ during a live stream with Hasan Piker in 2021.

‘That’s kind of f****d up,’ Hasan said after watching a clip from the show, to which Sara replied, ‘It is a little bit.’

‘That’s very f****d up,’ Hasan added once again.

‘Yeah, it was extremely awkward, probably the worst moment of my life,’ she said.

‘Yeah, he made it so much worse,’ Hasan quipped.

‘He only focused on that element,’ she replied.

‘Do you think he would be able to do that s**t with like a Hollywood actress or some s**t? No way.’

She agreed, stating, ‘No, it was because I was a nobody.’

One comment underneath the original interview reads: ‘This was by far the most awkward interview I have ever seen him do.’ 

‘That was the most awkward thing I’ve ever seen in my life.’

‘I feel so badly for her. That would be so uncomfortable. It probably felt like it was falling down even when it wasn’t because there was zero support. What a horribly thought out dress,’ someone else wrote.

‘As a woman I feel so bad for her that was probably so awkward. But I feel like he did a good job at making light of it so it wasn’t as awkward.’ 

‘His eye control is legendary,’ another added.
