Amy Tan Explains "100 Shades of Tan" and Whipping Stephen King

When author Amy Tan was in the red chair to talk about her new book The Valley of Amazement the conversation took a decidedly rock 'n' roll turn. This, because George asked her about her band, Rock Bottom Remainders and a spicy song she performed called "100 Shades of Tan."

Amy Tan's interview with George airs Wednesday, December 4.

George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight airs weeknights at 7 and 11:30 pm on CBC Television
