Congrats to Stephen Colbert, who, although he won’t be President next year, was selected Celebrity of the Year by newspaper editors and broadcast producers who said Colbert had the biggest impact on pop culture in 2007.

First runner-up was J.K. Rowling, followed by Al Gore.

Colbert sent the AP this email: “In receiving this award, I am pleased that I was chosen over two great spinners of fantasy — J.K. Rowling and Al Gore. It is truly an honor to be named the Associated Press’ Celebrity of the Year. Best of all, this makes me the official front-runner for next year’s Drug-Fueled Downward Spiral of the year. P.S. Look for my baby bump this spring!”

  • Well I guess it’s cool they didn’t pick someone who I’m tired of hearing about. Steve Colbert has an okay show and I’m happy for him.
