With Puerto Rico dealing with a full-blown humanitarian crisis in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, Late Show host Stephen Colbert has decided to use his Americone Dream Fund to donate funds to the relief effort. In determining how much should be sent, Colbert enlisted the help of celebrities.
How so? Well, he let them know this week that his charity would donate $1,000 — as decided by Nick Kroll — for every celebrity that tweeted out an awkward teen photo along with the hashtag #PuberMe. (Kroll had already called on celebs to use that hashtag in relation his show about puberty, Big Mouth.)
During last night’s broadcast, the comedian revealed a number of pictures that had been already been posted by celebs such as Sarah Silverman, Adam Richman, and Kumail Nanjani. And judging by the number of other famous folks tweeting out their gawky phase pics, Colbert’s fund will be shelling out some serious cash.
Check out some of them below:
