When it comes to championing animal rights, few do it better than Paul McCartney.

So of course it made sense that Paul helped PETA present an award for the most vegan-friendly city in the U.S.!

Can you guess who it is??

Stephen Colbert has gotten to meet some pretty big stars in his years of doing The Colbert Report!

But possibly none bigger to the Beatles fan than Sir Paul McCartney!

And now Sir Paul is coming back for a second British Invasion! Only this time, the knight is bringing his ax!

That's right, Stephen has announced a super-sized one-hour Colbert Report special featuring Sir Paul's second interview and first ever musical performance!

Sir Paul better get ready for the Colbert bump! Stephen says:

"I think this McCartney kid’s got something special and I’m gonna put him on the map!"

The special won't air until June 12, but you can see Stephen's awkward first meeting with the rock legend …AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Paul McCartney is a huge animal lover and big supporter of animal rights.

So of course he was so happy when the European Union (EU) enacted a law that banned all animal testing.

Cruelty Free International (Buav) is an organization that really spearheaded the ban in Europe, and now they've joined forces with Sir Paul to bring that ban to the rest of the world.

McCartney said:

Paul McCartney certainly is a veteran performer.

It'd take more than a few bugs to get him to mess up a live show.

Actually, we feel like it'd take nothing short of a plague of locusts to throw him off his game.

That's kinda what happened to him at a show in Brazil.

While up on stage, for almost three hours, he was surrounded by grasshoppers, several of which landed on him while he was performing.

One in particular sat on his shoulder while he played.

Paul ended up naming the little guy Harold. Ha!

What a professional, to be able to keep playing and even make light of the situation.

Check out the video (above) to hear Paul talk about his locust buddies then still continue the show!

Hang tough, Blockheads!!

She's already living the American dream, right?

Adele is reportedly gathering up baby Angelo and beau Simon Konecki from her British digs to make Los Angeles her permanent home.

After renting Paul McCartney's home in the City of Angels to prepare for the Oscars, the songstress fell so in love with the city that she plans to move here!

A source spilled:

Two rockers for the price of one???! YES PLEASE.

Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl joined Rick Springfield in a performance of the classic hit, Jesse's Girl, on Ellen yesterday.
