Stephen Colbert, who is ending his The Late Show, recently revealed how he was starstruck by this one guest.

Revealing on Strike Force Five podcast, where he sat with Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, John Oliver and Jimmy Fallon, he talked about his “biggest crush.”

He stated that there was a person who made him wildly attracted to them, which made the situation a little awkward.

The 62-year-old stated, "I'll tell you who I did not expect to be wildly attracted to."

He continued, "I didn't know what to do with myself. Because I don't - ehh I like this person's work, but I never thought of them as a bombshell."

Stephen added. "I did not know what to do with my eyeballs when Michelle Williams was on for the first time."

The interviewer revealed that the guest made him so nervous that all he wanted to do was not look at her.

"She sat down across from me, and I went, 'F***, what is wrong with my head? I'd better not look directly at her for this entire interview!" he concluded.

It is to be noted that Michelle is a five-time Oscar award-nominated actress who has a successful career.
