14 Most Problematic Celebrity Interviews In Hollywood History (3 of 5)

Vin Diesel interrupted an interview three times to comment on her appearance

Carol Moriera, a Brazilian Youtuber, was interviewing Vin Diesel in 2016. She was asking him questions about his acting career and his life as an actor when he interrupted her by saying “God, you’re so beautiful”. Carol replied with a “thank you” and tried to move on with the conversation. But he didn’t stop at this. He started talking to the crewmates about how pretty she was and asked how he was to sit through that interview with such a beauty sitting in front of him. Moriera smiled awkwardly and tried to bring the conversation back to the topic.

He interrupted her multiple times during the course of that interview again, even suggesting to leave the stage and just go have lunch together. Carol repeatedly tried to nudge him off, but the actor went on his knees to approach her and said that she was “too f*ing sexy to do an interview with”.

After the whole mess, Carol admitted in a statement that she was feeling completely uncomfortable during that, because he kept interrupting the interview to comment on her looks. She said that she didn’t know how to react, so she just sat there awkwardly trying to finish the work. Moriera also added that it wasn’t good that he interrupted her work like that.

The James Bond actor opined that “slapping women” is not “bad” as some situations “merit it”

Sean Connery once openly commented, rather in a misogynistic way, that it is better to hit a woman with an open hand than a closed one. Barbara Walters asked him about that comment in an interview in 1987. Connery obnoxiously told that his opinion hadn’t changed since then.

Barbara asked him whether it was good to slap women according to him. He said that it wasn’t good exactly. But it is not that bad if it is required at the moment.

When Barbara asked him when exactly is it okay to slap a woman according to him, he said “only after the man has tried everything else.”

To justify himself, he said that women always need to have the last word and if men allow them to have it, they just keep repeating it and keep going on and on about it and that they make the situation provocative, which makes it absolutely right to hit them.

Barbara said that he would likely to get a lot of (hate) mail after this interview aired. To this, Connery replied, “Might get some female.”

An Entertainment Tonight reporter told Taylor that she’d be “walking home with many men” from the Grammys 2015

As Taylor Swift spoke to an Entertainment Tonight reporter at the 2015 Grammys, the camera focused closely on her stunning ombre teal dress and cute purple shoes, because the reporter said that “I just want to show some legs”. She further said that Swift would likely have more than a trophy to take back home, a lot of men.

Taylor responded that it is not what was going to happen. “I’d spend time with my friends and then go home to my cats. Men put me in trouble”, the pop star added.

After that, they just went on to discussing how Taylor had matured over the years and they also showed a clip of Taylor when she was attending the Grammys for the first time and was totally starstruck. Taylor admitted that after all these years and all the fame she gained during them, she still feels as starstruck as then.
