Harry Connick Jr. Jokes That He Doesn't Need Mardi Gras Beads to Get Shirtless (VIDEO)

Harry Connick Jr. doesn't actually live in New Orleans, as he told Stephen Colbert on 'The Colbert Report' (Weeknights, 11:30PM ET on Comedy Central). But the Connecticut resident realizes people still associate him with the city he grew up in, so he was more than happy to answer Colbert's Mardi Gras-related questions.

"Let me ask you something," Colbert said. "I'm sure you get asked this a lot, how many [Madri Gras] beads is it going to take to see your t*ts?"

"How do you spell 'zero'?" Connick Jr. responded, making a vampy facial expression and then adding, "Mr. Man."

Connick Jr. did not, however, lift his shirt. So he was probably just kidding, and we think it would, in fact, take many Mardi Gras beads to get him to expose his nipples.
