David Letterman was once hailed as a master of late-night television, known for his wit and charm. But looking back, not all of his interviews have stood the test of time — at least, not in the eyes of critics.
One encounter, in particular, involved Hollywood star Jennifer Aniston. At first glance, it seemed like just another talk-show moment. But watching it today?
Couldn’t help but praise her legs
A resurfaced photo of Jennifer Aniston and David Letterman has reignited discussions about one of the most uncomfortable moments onThe Late Show.
The 2006 interview took place whenJennifer Anistonappeared onThe Late Show with David Lettermanto promoteThe Break-Up, a romantic comedy where she starred alongside Vince Vaughn, who also co-wrote and produced the film.
The interview took an awkward turn right from the start when Letterman fixated on Aniston’s legs, repeatedly complimenting them throughout their conversation.
Wearing a black button-down blouse paired with black shorts, Aniston quickly became the focus ofLetterman’sadmiration. He couldn’t help but praise her legs, and the cameraman followed suit, zooming in to highlight them.
“That’s a tremendous outfit,” he remarked, before doubling down, “and the reason that’s a tremendous outfit is because you have tremendous legs. Fantastic legs. You can only wear that if you have lovely, well-shaped, muscular, lengthy legs”
The actress, clearly taken aback, tried to downplay the comment, laughing it off by saying she had worn shorts simply because of the heat.
