Seth Meyers is no stranger to getting drunk for the sake of comedy, especially on his popular late-night talk show, “Late Night With Seth Meyers.” One of his most memorable drinking buddies is none other than Rihanna, who famously out-drank the comedian during a “Day Drinking” segment in 2019.
The segment, which has featured guests like Dua Lipa, Kristen Stewart, Paul Rudd, and Lorde, has garnered over 20 million views on YouTube. However, it was Meyers’ drinking session with Rihanna that became the stuff of legend. During a recent podcast appearance, Meyers reminisced about the time they drank silly concoctions like the “Bitch Better Have My Bunny” out of a chocolate bunny.
Despite drinking the same amount as Rihanna, Meyers ended up feeling worse for wear after the segment. He recalled stumbling home and falling asleep in his hallway, only to be woken up by his wife placing a glass of water next to him. Meyers even joked about having his phone on his chest in case Rihanna called.
In a separate incident, Kevin Hart shared a similar experience after filming a “Day Drinking” segment with Meyers in 2024. Hart humorously recounted how he “almost died” during the drinking session, prompting Meyers to call and scold him the next morning.
These hilarious and memorable drinking segments have become a staple of Meyers’ show, showcasing both his comedic prowess and ability to hold his own in a drinking competition with some of the biggest celebrities in the industry. Rihanna may have bested him that one time, but Meyers continues to entertain viewers with his antics and witty banter on “Late Night With Seth Meyers.”
