AceShowbiz - A live broadcast of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" during an interview with former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was interrupted. During Pelosi's appearance on the show, a woman in the audience shouted "Free Palestine!" and questioned U.S. support for Israel.

Colbert acknowledged the protest and promised to address the issue after the commercial break. However, the protests continued despite his efforts to quell them.

Pelosi emphasized the need for a ceasefire, the release of hostages, and a two-state solution. Colbert pressed her on the ongoing conflict, leading to further interruptions and a request from him that the protesters listen to her response.

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, Pelosi's successor, also discussed the situation in Gaza, while Laura Benanti provided comedic relief with her portrayal of Melania Trump.

Protesters reportedly left the theater peacefully after the show. However, additional demonstrations occurred outside the venue, with protesters chanting "Nancy, Nancy, you can't hide."

The incident highlighted the ongoing tensions and differing perspectives on the Israel-Palestine conflict, which have been brought into focus by the recent escalation in Gaza. Despite efforts by Colbert and others to facilitate a civil discussion, the protests served as a reminder of the deep-seated emotions surrounding this issue.
