John Oliver is bracing for his 50th birthday—complete with a keg stand and possibly an early exit from Last Week Tonight due to “natural selection.” As the show enters its 13th year, he’s stunned by how long it’s lasted. Despite Hollywood fame, he still feels like an outsider, starstruck by reality TV stars—and finds their real-life encounters surreal. His dream guest spot? Not The Real Housewives, but Beef, since the show has made plenty of enemies. He’s already checked off his soap opera bucket list with roles on General Hospital and Days of Our Lives—and is happy to leave acting gigs behind for now.
