Don't get me wrong. I think she's fantastically gorgeous, funny, and smart, but I also think that she lives in "the bubble." Did you guys see the last episode of 30 Rock? It's about the bubble of encouragement and approval that beautiful people live in. I thought of that when I watched this video because both the studio and the VS audiences seem overly-enthusiastic, if you ask me.


I don't disagree with you that this lady is probably in her own bubble. But in this interview Letterman came across as being in even more of a bubble of his own, accentuated by his apparent ignorance of her, her life, and the culture from which she had come. After seeing the clip where her character decries the businessman's proposal of creating an Indian getaway where people would not have to deal with India, I can see how Letterman asking her if she would ever consider moving permanently to Hollywood could have been insulting to her. Hence her barbed reaction.

Now from what I have seen of Letterman, I would never describe him as an ignorant person. He usually comes across to me as intelligent, well read, witty, and generally a pleasant fellow. This may just have been a case of being (uncharacteristically) poorly prepped for the interview --an honest mistake. Letterman will probably not remembered this as one of his favorite interviews (even if it was fun to watch).

I knew it!

Downvote me all you want but this video still doesn't contain anything pertaining to drugs or any television footage.

yeah, dft can get a little uptight if you go changing his channels, but let's try and put it right anyway.

One could argue that he is either ON drugs or SHOULD BE on drugs

Well, see, I was sort of kidding about it not being hilarious anymore. And lots of homeless people have computers and webcams! Seriously, he looks like he's out-of-doors! Maybe it's just me.

Yup, just me.

I think that this guy might be homeless and/or crazy. It's not hilarious anymore, but still pretty darn funny.
Since when do homeless people have computers and webcams? And sure he's crazy, but I don't think he's eat-your-baby crazy, just wacky-uncle crazy. I think it's safe to think it's hilarious.

Uh... Whatever dag. 30 Rock is awesome, and so is Alec Baldwin!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

^Sorry, 30 Rock is trying a little too hard to be post-post whatever. Larry Sanders did it 10 X better 10 years ago. Also Alec Baldwin makes me barf.

>> ^dag:
Love it! And the best thing is, this is way better than the actual show.


Wrong

Tracy Morgan's ongoing success completely mystifies me. His shtick consists entirely of yelling and acting crazy. What makes him more talented then some hobo off the street?

He's okay on 30 Rock, because the character is written for him and doesn't require him to do much beyond his one note, but he was pretty bad on SNL. I don't get it.

Close your eyes and it's Kenneth from 30 Rock.

Maddow's just a mouthpiece now, like Olbermann and the rest.
