Alan Cumming Raps on Stephen Colbert’s Single ‘Oopsie-Daisy Homophobe’ & Explains Why He Can’t Fart in Macbeth

Tony winner and Broadway.com Audience Choice Award nominee Alan Cumming showed off some serious rap skills (skillz?) on the April 17 episode of The Colbert Report, when he sang a few verses on host Steven Colbert’s newest track, “Oopsie-Daisy Homophobe”—a hilarious parody of Brad Paisley’s “Accidental Racist.” The Macbeth star quickly changed from his “gay urban” look into his “Shakespearean actor” suit to chat with Colbert about uttering the name of the Scottish play in the theater (Cumming thinks the curse is “dopey”) and not being able to cough or fart during his one-man interpretation of the classic tragedy.
