Late-night talk show host Stephen Colbert came up with a pretty great way to raise money for Puerto Rico’s recovery and it embarrass celebrities at the same time, which we love. For every tweet that includes an embarrassing childhood photo along with the hashtags #PuertoRicoRelief and #PuberMe, Colbert’s foundation will donate $1000 to the relief organization OneAmericaAppeal.org.
