Late Show host Stephen Colbert was puzzled by Melania Trump s decision to return to the spotlight this week with an unexpected video defending her decades-old nude photos.
Why do I stand proudly behind my nude modeling work? the wife of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump asked in the video promoting her upcoming memoir .
Im sorry, Im sorry whats happening? Colbert replied. Why would you ask that? Absolutely no one is talking about your nude modeling work!
Colbert said the nation is facing a more pressing question with the approach of the election and then returned to the video in which Melania Trump states: The more pressing question is why has the media chosen to scrutinize my celebration of the human form in a fashion photo shoot?
Ah yes, Colbert said, sarcastically adding: The thing the media is definitely scrutinizing, the 24-year-old naked photo shoot of Melania on Trumps plane.
