New “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert is covering his bad side!

The comedian, 51, has a right ear that’s been wonky ever since an operation he had at the age of 10. “It sticks out like a dog’s ear,” said an insider. “So we tried putting his right profile to the guests, but he’s also deaf in that ear!”

The new set allows Stephen to turn face-to-face and hear the answers in his interviews.

“Stephen’s not vain,” said the source. “He says it’s just what happens when a surgeon uses a melon baller!”
