Yeh... never heard of him.

I'm English, but I know who he is (besides being a repulsive sycophant, aka cocksucker).

Jeeze, so he's popular for showing up on
a show that's supposed to invite popular
people on? Hell, his tea's not even good.

 

[Sir Saladin]

He's that guy that that interviews movie actors on the Bravo cable channel. I don't care about him pimping. I don't care about him at all because in the past ten years I watched him for three minutes.

 

[Trooper5445]

Why do we care about a job like this? I don't think it really matters or effect anything.

 

[Tralfaz]

Because its highly unexpected.  I like the show because of the interesting questions he asks myself.

 

[Trooper5445]

Still even if it is unexpected how do you know it isn't a publicity stunt?

 

[Tralfaz]

Publicity stunt?  For what?  Alot of the time, these people have nothing to promote.  They had Jimmy Stewart on once, shorty before his death. Im sure he mustve had a big movie coming out then.  No, it doesnt seem at all to be a publicity stunt, its something different from answering all the same type of questions in most interview shows, which is why I think most people who appear enjoy it.
