News reporter gets caught without pants in at-home interview
An ABC News reporter was interviewed at-home for Good Morning America yesterday. That reporter, Will Reeve, 27, was probably hoping viewers were listening to what he had to say about “Pharmacies of the Future”: the forward-thinking businesses using drones to drop off medication.
Instead, some eagle-eyed viewers quickly spotted the fact that Reeve – who was talking to GMA anchors Michael Strahan and Amy Robach – didn’t appear to be fully dressed.
Although he was clad in a shirt and suit jacket, his bottom half showed plenty of naked thigh and what appeared to be a flash of underwear.
The sartorial lapse was soon noted on Twitter. Detroit News film critic Adam Graham posted photos of the interview with the comment, “Hey put some pants on my guy.”
Others were quick to defend the reporter, with one quipping: “Pants are so March.” Let’s be honest: If you’re working from home at the moment, that’s probably a relatable sentiment.
“Trying to be efficient I got ready for a post-GMA workout a little too soon this morning.
“The camera angle, along with friends, family, and several hundred strangers on the social media made me rethink my morning routine.
“Any sartorial tips from these people who are wearing a belt, trousers and shoes during their work videocalls at home are most welcome. Now, back to work. Wearing pants.”
‘X-Men’ Actress Olivia Munn Unloads on Bryan Singer: ‘You See These People Who Keep Failing Up’
X-Men: Apocalypse actress Olivia Munn unloaded on director Bryan Singer in an interview with Variety‘s Ramin Setoodeh about gender inequality in the entertainment industry.
As Variety notes, “In late 2017, Singer was fired in the middle of the production of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ for allegedly not coming to work and clashing with actor Rami Malek. Other stories followed about how Singer had also been missing on the set of ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ with reporting from anonymous sources.”
“It’s the problem that I always had in this business, way before the #MeToo movement exposed so much,” said Munn. “You’re in it and you see these people who keep failing up, and they’re not that great and you think, ‘Really?’ When we shot ‘X-Men,’ I never shot a huge movie like that before. I didn’t know what was right or wrong, but I did know that it seems strange that Bryan Singer could check out and say he had a thyroid issue. Instead of going to a doctor in Montreal, which is a very high-level, working city, he said he had to go to L.A. And he was gone for about 10 days is my recollection. And he said, ‘Continue. Keep filming.’ We’d be on set, I remember there’s a big scene that we’d have, and we’d come back from lunch and then one of Bryan’s assistants would come up and show us a cell phone with a text message on it.”
Added Munn: “And he texted to the actors, ‘Hey guys. I’m busy right now. But just go ahead and start filming without me.’ And we’d be like, ‘OK.’ And I never thought any of it was normal, but I didn’t realize that other people also thought it wasn’t normal. And the other people who thought it wasn’t normal would be people at high levels, people who make decisions on whether to hire this person. Come to find out it is really strange and it wasn’t OK. But this person is allowed to continue to go on. Fox still gives him Bohemian Rhapsody, and then we all know what happened.“
Variety adds: “Months before production started on [X-Men: Apocalypse], two lawsuits alleged that Singer had sexually abused underage boys. The accusations, which were later dismissed, painted the portrait of Singer as a hedonistic figure in the entertainment industry with a questionable work ethic.”
Don Lemon Rips Mike Pence’s ‘Ridiculous’, Dangerous Excuse for Going Mask-Less at Mayo Clinic: ‘Can You See My Eyes?’ — WATCH
CNN anchor Don Lemon blasted Vice President Mike Pence on Tuesday night after Pence, the leader of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, declined to wear a mask while visiting patients at the Mayo Clinic and offered what Lemon called a “ridiculous” excuse.
Pence told reporters after his visit: “As Vice President of the United States, I’m tested for the coronavirus on a regular basis. And everyone who is around me is tested for the coronavirus. And when the CDC issued guidelines about wearing a mask, it was their recognition that people that they have the coronavirus could prevent the possibly of conveying the virus to someone else by wearing a mask. And since I don’t have the coronavirus, I thought it would be a good opportunity for me to be here, to be able to speak to these researchers, these incredible health care personnel, and look them in the eye and say thank you.”
“What about the fact that it is their policy?” asked Lemon. “It is the policy that you created. What about the fact that they offered one upon your arrival? What about the fact it’s possible for a coronavirus test to be inaccurate? And it’s possible for you to contract and spread the virus after you’ve tested negative.”
Said Lemon: “So the advice from the experts is clear. Remember, he’s the head of the task force. The head of the task force. The advice is to wear a mask for the protection of other people, but the vice president chose not to. “
“Come on,” said Lemon, putting on a surgical mask. “Can you see my eyes? It’s not an eye mask we’re talking about. This is ridiculous. We all know that you can look somebody in the eye while wearing a mask. Millions of Americans have been wearing masks during this pandemic? Guess what? They can still see!”
Lemon then noted that Pence was not wearing a mask for an audience of one: Donald Trump, who said he chose not to wear a mask because it would look undignified in the Oval Office.
If the rest of us can do it, and we can, why can’t the president? Why can’t the vice president? … At a time when hundreds of millions of Americans are suffering, and sacrificing, and dying, but they can’t do it. We’re in the middle of a crisis – this is a time when we really need our leaders to show up, to show leadership. … Do as I say, and as I do. Wear a mask. It’s that simple.”
