Mark Wright interviewed numerous worldwide celebrities as a former Extra TV host, and he has recently admitted that not all exchanges were favourable.
In his career, the 36-year-old recalls one interaction with an awkward-sounding star.
The reminiscing began after Jamie Laing inquired about the ‘greatest diva’ Mark had faced in his area of work.
‘It’s an English Hollywood actor,’ Mark said after a little pause. I can’t tell you how badly she treated me.’
He claimed that the encounter occurred during a junket when he had to chat with numerous stars from the same TV programme.
He asked each of the five actors the same question to open proceedings, which was: ‘So series one, it was violent, it was aggressive, it was a bloodbath – how does series two compare?’
While the first four persons Mark spoke with were eager to respond, he stated the mystery interviewee couldn’t be the same.
‘She goes, “Let me just repeat what you just said, okay? Violent. Bloodbath. Aggressive. I look at someone like you how I look at someone who would masturbate over a romantic sex scene in a movie. When actually, that’s art.”‘
He recalls her calling him a ‘male chauvinist’ and summarising that he didn’t understand creativity.
Jamie, 34, was visibly shocked at the dialogue that was revealed on Private Parts podcast.
Mark claimed that when the interviewee asked if he had any more questions, he considered how he would respond.
‘I can’t hold my f*****g tongue. She’s a big star though right. So I looked down and went that’s it, that’s all I’ve got.
‘So she said, “That was a waste of time wasn’t it?” I said, “No, for you it was, not for me.”‘
Mark went on to say that he’d had four successful interviews with her co-stars and that she’d be the only one who didn’t make the cut in his portion on the show.
He concluded the interview by telling her she needed to learn to be courteous.
Mark interviewed numerous prominent faces as part of his employment from 2017 to 2020, including Mariah Carey, Jane Fonda, and Margot Robbie, which seemed to go much better!
