Well put! Especially since she wasn’t even told he’d ask her these questions. I would have just shut down. Especially after all of the vitriol she’s experienced, she’s amazing.
@@JMarie-lf1rs She knew he was going to ask, despite the pre-interview comment. Dave ALWAYS asks. He's always been like that. So she at least knew it was possible.
@@billybatson7852 the preinterview should have all the questions, that's a fact, david is a sick senile and very sad man triggering her for no plausible reason.
@@vicparaleigos Yes, but pre-interview agreements are broken quite a bit. Either she or her publicist who arranged it - or both - had to be complete idiots to think that Dave wouldn't bring it up. He had a history of going after guests for this kind of stuff. And what do you mean for no plausible reason? She went to an awards show on the same fucking day that she went into jail, for god's sake... and then immediately tried to get attention for the product she was selling before the stench of the jail was even off her. Let's not pretend that Paris was an innocent person here. She knew what she might be getting into with Dave, but she was desperate for attention and money.
@@vicparaleigos She liked making jokes about her life. But his innocent but harsh question "how is this [rehab] time be different?" hurt her. But she recovered from it and hit back with jokes. Letterman is innocent.

@UCIzsQiUoJ6NrGcNEWPx04Og Please shut the hell up, you clearly have no social awareness to understand the objective situation here. He continued to unnecessarily make insensitive questions and comments on something she insisted was NOT supposed to be brought up in the interview. This is not the case of her being a spoiled brat because "too bad you don't get to choose the question, he's the interviewer". If you knew anything about what these late night interviews do, it's clear cut he did this to openly mock her substance abuse which you would never do to any self-respecting human being. Letterman is the brat in this case, pretending like it's okay to keep pushing his luck by disrespecting a guest for desperate attention. You're most likely a sociopathic narcissistic. Please get psychologically evaluated before you get knocked out by someone with a human conscious.
Ya, sadly the audience doesn’t have a choice. They’re paid to literally sit & clap. If u don’t clap or show enthusiasm, you get kicked out. So it’s sucks when people get set as audience members on crap shows & don’t want to keep applauding- but have to :(
@@dkdkxkcjfjfjfj they do. I used to work on shows & get paid for just sitting in as an audience member. half the audience is paid & the other half are tourists/ppl that want to check out the studio/shows.
Back during this interview, everyone was laughing at her. I'm not saying it's right, but Dave wasn't alone in his mockery. And, hell, people online TODAY are much worse. Just look at any post made by Christy Teigen.
Yes. And I see something deeper and darker and sadder here. Specifically from minute 2:15 forward. Lindsay cries and inside she feels like someone worthless, who lives only to amuse people at the cost of trampling on her own human being. She even makes the rehab and vodka joke to reaffirm that. "I am a clown that serves to make people laugh. But I am worth nothing inside." And Lindsay cries keeping her smile, she cries but still crying she tries to make the others laugh. Her face (beloved and beautiful face) makes an effort to smile while crying. And also to appear funny while inside she feels that she is only useful to be made fun of. That's why now 2023 that she is already a mom, I love seeing that she is a new and better person. I love to see that she is happy. She inspires and wants to bring happiness to the world. Precious Lindsay. God bless her always. Love to Lindsay
And.... yet no one else calls her out on it... All the other people just let her promote her film and ignore the pain, let her get away with the terrible behavior. Good on Dave for not covering it up.
@@lolpaladinspublic humiliation of an addict isn’t helping anyone. Her drama filled life and the extreme bullying from the media probably contributed to her bad choices. Making people feel like crap isn’t it.
@@lolpaladins She was trying to fulfill her job obligations, not be asked about her addiction issues for entertainment. That's not anyone's business, certainly not David Letterman's.
@@lolpaladins"good on Dave"? What the fuck? How is publicly shaming her supposed to overcome her flaws? That could've ended with her taking her own life out of depression. I hope you've adjusted your worldview a bit
What’s crazy is he’s had her on the show since she was a child. How can he not think back on her as that child and be ashamed of the way he disrespected her. I think she tried to make this point too. When she said “I’ve been on this show since I was seven” Imagine behaving like this to someone you knew when they were just a kid and you were literally already a grown ass adult. For shame.
@@MrMagicglass more like public humiliation. What good was he honestly hoping to achieve there.. if he cared about her well being enough to constructively scold her, it definitely could have been a personal call or conversation, imo
Cassie D That's not crazy...that's Hollywood. How many _OTHER_ child stars have had their lives ruined b/c of Hollywood enabling them to have access to drugs at such a young age? And nothing is said or done about it. It's criminal. Instead of trying to help them, they turn their backs on them (and/or ridicule them). I'm just glad this girl has straightened her life out now(so I hear).
@@cl8onj388 I'm not saying its unusual or uncommon, I'm just saying its not right. I agree that it's criminal. Its disgusting how Hollywood treats children; I don't have much good to say about most of the parents either. I'm glad to hear she's on a better path now too.
@@cassied9327 I'm just glad she didn't end up like Dana Plato, the actress from "Different Strokes". She was found dead in a trailer of a drug overdose. They turned a blind eye to her. Really sad.
“i wouldn’t know i’d have to find out in rehab” “i thought this was vodka” DAMN. she had more wit and comedic value than he did throughout the entirety of his cringe act.
Letterman did that at the edict of his exist boss Les Moonves. I mean, look at LiLo now, she's back on her feet while Les Moonves on the other hand, is jobless now, LOL.
Exactly !!!! Lindsey kept her composure so well and she stayed so professional about it while being able to have better humor than he did. She won 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
This is so gross. She was shoved into a corner here, he was forcing these issues until she addressed them (which she clearly didn’t want to!) Disgusting 🤢🤮🤬 EDIT: Woah I did not expect all these likes! 😲😂😂😂
Yes, it was pretty brutal. I liked Dave, I never seen him be such an insensitive prick here. I couldn’t believe what an ass he was. No wonder this girl has had all her problems, having to be mocked in front of the whole world. Felt bad for her, hope she’s doing alright.

@@isobeljohnshoward No. She liked making jokes about her life. But his innocent but harsh question "how is this [rehab] time be different?" hurt her. But she recovered from it and hit back with jokes. Letterman is innocent.
@@hus390 Letterman is innocent? Absolutely not. An idiot could see that she was uncomfortable with what was being asked of her. Either he was too blind to see this or he could see it and didn’t care. That woman could have had a breakdown right on that stage with what was being said to her, but she desperately tried to hold it together as she knew all eyes were on her. She even said she hadn’t discussed this in the pre-interview, so obviously she wasn’t expecting this. She just wanted to promote her movie and instead she got inundated with ignorant questions about her rehab. Appalling.
@@billybatson7852 actually it was. You heard she saying that they didn't talk about some of his questions at the pre-interview. She was clearly uncomfortable.
@@thaisterra2797 Bullshit. He had been on air for several years and her agent and publicist or whoever booked it would have known his history of asking tough questions. How would that be a secret when all she or her "people" had to do was watch old episodes? lol That being said, it's very clear that he assumed she'd be able to handle the tough questions, but the moment he noticed how weak she was, he tried to cover it with jokes and adoration from the audience. He wasn't trying to be malicious. He just put way too much stock in how strong he thought she was.
good it's his show he can talk about the weather if he wants to, the nerve on these celebrities thinking they can tell the host what to talk about on his show pff
Wasn't a big Lindsay Lohan fan til now. She stayed strong, human, funny and made Dave look like a shmuck. Didnt Letterman admit to his own sobriety problems yrs prior to this interview?? How richly ironic he relished exploiting others same struggle and pain he knew of so well. Likely Dave rationalizes he was just giving her some "tough love". Clearly that didn't work considering the longterm damage she still endures. Letterman revealed here he was the classic hippocrite and sociopath. Nice legacy he has!!
Letterman has NOTHING to do with Lohan's troubles. If she was that fragile, then she shouldn't be going on interviews for attention. She knew that Letterman wasn't like the other talk show hosts that kiss everyone's ass. She HAD to know he would likely bring it up. I think he just misjudged her reaction. I'm not sure if he had issues before this, but then why didn't she give him shit right back? Besides, you can tell that Dave realized that it was upsetting her and then tried to do a course correction. So he clearly wasn't being malicious.
@@billybatson7852 That’s a pretty naive statement to make my guy. People go on talk shows all the time who have personal issues in life & aren’t treated the way Lindsay was treated. By that logic, you better be holding yourself to the same standard that everything bad that happens to you is your fault. But you don’t do that, you know why? Because deep down you know it’s not true. Treat others the same. Stop sticking your head in the sand & being ignorant & then whinge when people take the time out of their own days to shine light on a different perspective which is far more logical than your own. You should be thanking them. Besides, majority of talk shows, they do a pre-interview & usually the publicist & manager will be involved giving a list of questions the celebrity doesn’t feel comfortable asking. So that’s actually a physical action that was taken that’s factually wrong too. Just say you’re a misogynist and move on.
@@cutecookie1111 I actually do hold myself to that standard most of the time, my broad... my chick-a-dee. But more importantly, if I'm not doing well in life and having problems, I'm certainly not going to go on a talk show where the host is known for giving guests shit. My two exes... let's see... one got into meth and abandoned me and my son and I still blame myself for not seeing it sooner. My more recent ex ended up being a Little who liked Daddies and I blame myself for not seeing that earlier, too. Now I'm staying away from such things and am very happy. So no... I don't blame them at all. It was my fault for not seeing them that way before I got heavily involved. As for being a misogynist... I WISH!!!!!!!!!!! To date, I've sacrificed probably 40k to women for various reasons... and have used much of that money to help women friends to get out of dangerous or harmful situations with no benefit to me. Last year, I helped a female friend get out of a hurtful relationship with a drug addict to the tune of $600 only to have her go back to him six months later and never pay me back. In fact, she cut me off because he's now in control of her life. But if she was to come back tomorrow because he had abandoned her and she needed my help? Yup... I'd do it. Also, I just gave another $40 to a female friend who is 1000+ miles away from me so she could have money for food despite the fact that I've given her about $400 in the past and never asked for any of it back. She only asked for $10, but I gave her $40 because $10 seemed low. But yeah... I'm a misogynist. Tell me again.
@@billybatson7852 Letterman didn't have anything to do with Lohans troubles as far as I know, but just because she has issues doesn't mean she is fragile. She isn't on the show for attention for herself. She was there for the movie she is in. Major job actors do, apart from acting in the film, is to advertise the movie and usually actors use their own fame to do so. She was doing her job. She being on the show doesn't mean he can parade around with her crap and have a laugh about it. And as to why didn't she give him shit back? She has been through the trouble, maybe more so than Letterman maybe it doesn't even cross her mind to pull that crap? She said that stuff leterman said wasn't brought up on preinterview. That would mean that it doesn't get brought up. She was probably caught off guard. but yea, he noticed the error of his way. Late, but better late than never I guess. He was pretty old at that point already.
Feeling weird about her. Somehow I empathize and I validate her pain. But her trying to kidnapp those kids 2 years ago and telling them to watch some movies with her... Idk She's kinda of dark tbh. 👀👀 I just don't full support her now after that. I know she needs help, but come on 👀👁️👄👁️
Jesus....this is exactly why I've never liked Letterman. I'm so glad that we've reached a point where addiction is no longer considered a joke and that we are starting to take the mental health of ourselves and others more seriously. This was a terrible interview and it was obviously bringing up some terrible emotions for Lindsay. I hope she can make it through to the other side. She's a talented actress and has a great personality, she shouldn't lose any more years to this disease.
@@evertvdb000 you have a very simplistic view of addiction of how addiction alters someone both mentally and physically and you seemingly also don't understand that actors are contractually obligated to appear on talk shows as part of the promotion of their movie projects. Talking about personal struggles on talks shows is not a requirement and if the actor is ok to talk about their personal demons there is a right way and a wrong way for an interviewer to approach it.
@@thyop89 If you don't want to be contractually obligated to appear in talkshows, don't sign the contract. You make it seems that she's a 'victim'. she's not. nobody forced her to take drugs. she made that decision all by herself. Nobody forces her to go to the talkshow. she is there for 1 and only 1 reason: personal gain. Letterman sees through that, and he can ask any question he likes. it's his show.
@@evertvdb000 sounds like you have a an axe to grind against someone. Sorry you are unable to find sympathy for someone who is having a hard time, i agree that addicts can be very damaging to people around them. I obviously can't change your mind but trying to understand their mindset will help you understand why people end up in that position and why they find it so hard to recover without a lot of help. It's not as simple as just being weak or lazy or selfish.
@@thyop89 You are wrong, i have no 'axe to grind' against noone. I have a lot of sympathy for people in difficult positions, I have no sympathy for people who got very lucky, but threw it away. Lindsay has no talent, just got lucky, because she had more or less a cute face. after a few movies, it was over. she tried to revive her career, via Letterman. Bad choice. Not lettermans fault. he was to make an interesting show, if not, ratings drop and he has to fire people.
U say letterman is an awful man?? He's not the one doing drugs and drinking and getting DUI's etc.. hello.. drinking while driving.. Lindsey could've killed someone driving intoxicated...
Honestly, she should have walked away. She should not have sat there and tolerated that abuse. I know it’s very difficult for people in those moments. But looking back, I wonder if she wishes she hadn’t walked out.
@@tonyho5611He says elsewhere that he used to be a huge alcoholic, from a very young age. So I think there is actually concern for her in this interview. He probably sees her self destructing and knows exactly what that's like.
i hate to break it to you all but letterman pretty much made a career out of teasing and belittling his guests. just watch when richard simmons would come on. he also had affairs with women on his staff and is notoriously cold and dismissive of everyone. take him or leave him but that’s his deal. but now he has a lame netflix series where he tries to be woke and sanctimonious and that doesn’t fly.
I was watching a video of him and Jennifer Connelly, it made me so upset. She was taking about how her education was important, encouraging young people to go to college but if not, to have a love of learning. Letterman interrupted her to talk about how hot her legs were. She looked so uncomfortable but she joked back, trying to be cool about it. Heaven forbid she talk about anything other than her looks.
RyanInLA I remember watching him when I was much younger and HATING HIM. I couldn’t put my finger on it but I thought something was off about him and thought he seemed super fake. I thought to myself, “If I ever became famous I would NEVER go on his show.” I was really happy and pleased when Jimmy Fallon became the host of “The Tonight Show.” People give him crap because they think he’s fake but I don’t think he’s bullshitting his audience at all I think he’s just NICE. Fallon is lovable and funny and he’s a super talented singer! I think he deserves to be a talk show host. I appreciate him and James Corden a lot they are a breath of fresh air. They are actually talented and funny on their own, unlike Letterman. Letterman isn’t talented or funny the only reason he lasted as long as he did was because he’s mean spirited and was good at poking fun at his guests
Letterman felt entitled to use his position and power to reduce celebs "down to size" to prove they were no better than anyone else. He did this subtlety and overtly by cutting them off, dismissing, shaming, and harassing them right to their face. Maybe he felt some of his audience got off on his ego trip. In reality most people with a modicum of self-awareness could see his sociopathic tendancies to destroy others while justifying it with his own bs.
Agreed. Both the media and society picked these young females in Tinseltown and treated them badly as if they were some corrupt government officials and politicians (like Eliot Spitzer and Anthony Weiner). SMH. Thanks to the Britney Spears documentaries (Framing Britney Spears and Controlling Britney Spears) in 2021, people have now realized that the media really wanted the female stars to fail. Former Nickelodeon star Jennette McCurdy (of iCarly and Sam & Cat) said it best: The media only wants to see a former child celeb fall off the rails and I agree with her. Therefore, the media and society both need to change they treat celebs and stop laughing at their mishaps and miscues for ratings, greed and money. They are still humans despite of what they went through. The media and society should also realize that they have kids too. I mean, you listening, Harvey Levin, Adam Buckley, Jian Ghomeshi, Kelly Ripa, Catt Sadler, Katie Couric, Bryant Gumbel, Mario Lopez, Ted Turner, Vince McMahon, Ana Kasparian, Cenk Uygur, Jerry Penacoli, former President Donald Trump, etc.?
With #cancelculture and with everyone literally being the media due to social media I actually think it’s even worse now, people are such sheep and have an inability to let things go
I mean. You definitely don’t need someone’s consent to make jokes about them lol. But I think I get what you’re trying to say. She can joke about herself, but when Letterman does it it’s different. It’s like he’s laughing at her not with her
He wasn't making a joke , he was asking private personal questions in front of an audience when none of that had been discussed to be talked about in the pre interview.
Consent to speak about someone now lol. Ffs. You should need consent to write such bullshit. You should need a bullshit permit or something that people need to consent to.
wow, he basically shamed her. He mght as well have said "you are so brave to put aside the shame you must feel for being such fucked up person, that is why she cried, dave has never been said to be the nicest guy though.
@@karlc2869 I see something deeper and darker and sadder here. Specifically from minute 2:15 forward. Lindsay cries and inside she feels like someone worthless, who lives only to amuse people at the cost of trampling on her own human being. She even makes the rehab and vodka joke to reaffirm that. "I am a clown that serves to make people laugh. But I am worth nothing inside." And Lindsay cries keeping her smile, she cries but still crying she tries to make the others laugh.

I think everyone is in Lindsay's corner. With all of the revelations about horrible things that go on in Hollywood one can only imagine how a super gorgeous young lady would be manipulated and abused.
@wittywitty6352 I would have understood if she was a criminal that was on a show where they detect lies and ask for the truth. Like one of those real life cops-situations. This lady was here to get better though and she openly talked about her addiction and rehab before. She was going to rehab, she said that, it was not like she kept that a secret. But _why_ she drinks or abuses too much, is private and when she declines that question, it is rude to keep pushing it. And if you do that with 6-7 questions, it's just rudeness alltogether. Again, we're not talking about a hardened criminal here that is trying to keep the place of the dismembered body a secret. We're talking about a girl with rehab-plans.
Sorry to hear that. BTW if Johnny Carson, Steve Allen, Jack Paar, Tom Snyder and Alan Thicke were alive and saw this, they would be disgusted with Dave. Not only that, they would be disgusted with the whole media. SMH.
Lindsay’s smirk after Letterman says, “you have enough poise to come out here and talk about it” tells me that she very clearly wasn’t planning on talking about it. She was forced to stick it out and speak. Letterman really is such a jerk.
this was BRUTAL. i just wanted to step in and smack david and hug lindsay. insane that this was just like some comedic pop culture running joke.... completely at the expense of a fucking REAL HUMAN BEING

WOW. She had every right to leave that interview when he crossed boundaries. She was clearly uncomfortable talking about it. Notice at 1:56 he gets manipulative and tries to make it sound like he’s helping show how strong she is by goading her in to talking about a touchy subject, and watch her expressions after 2:03 - she is PISSED at him and trying to hold it together and later tries to hide behind a joke to conceal how angry she is.
"I've been here since I was 7" "How many times do you think you've been here?" "I wouldn't know I'll have to find out in rehab!" The way she makes jokes about it! She handled the rudeness better than I ever could
I would love to see her have a career come back. She was so wronged and unsupported in her early career! With her parents etc too. She never stood a fair chance really. But was pretty and talented, worked hard etc.

Yeah I don’t get how him being an alcoholic himself would think this was okay, he asks her “Is it alcohol? Do you drink too much” and she says “we’ve already discussed this because you…” and he cut her off before she could say “you have the same problem”
Wow!!! I think I’m a Lindsay fan now… Bless her heart seriously!! My heart broke for her watching this. One of the hardest things when freshly kicking an addiction is having it constantly put in your mind & being in stressful situations without your “crutch”. She was thrown into both here at once. She did so well but broke my heart to see her crying & trying so hard to hold it back & trying to crack a joke at her own expense too. Poor girl, honestly, but what a lady!!…. Really made me wanna jump back in time, through the screen, take her out of that situation & take her for a coffee & a smile.

In my opinion This is what you get when you feed someone money. And treat them like royalty. It even goes to the heighth of lettermens chair. His chair higher then his guests. As if to have power. Egos. Feed them and expect this.
and she knew she couldnt really react because thats exactly what they wanted and they wouldve milked the reaction :/ this is so hard to watch but she handled it so well
I wonder if he would've treated Robert Downey jr this bad? I don't think so because Robert Downey would've told him off on camera and then walked off stage. Letterman, you're the worst joke in Hollywood. You got no right to judge
I’ve always felt so terrible for her. who knows what she’s gone through or was made to go through. I’m happy she’s doing better now. I’ve always liked her, she has such a sweet presence and light to her.
I have a hard time getting through a normal week, yet while at a low point she's able to handle being embarrassed on national television by an absolute creep of a human being, and still get through it better than me trying to get through a Monday. I cant imagine being in her shoes and how I would react.
This is really gross. Lindsay Lohan is a deeply troubled person who obviously was making efforts to improve her life, and Letterman humiliated her. Regardless of what he thought he was doing, she felt humiliated. She looked off camera, surely at her publicist or a producer, and stated as a professional that this topic had not been cleared for discussion and Letterman was relentless. She's a former child star, which comes with its own traumas and baggage, and whether she continually relapses or not, she was trying. A person's personal struggles are not obligated to be part of their work, and doing media interviews is a contractual obligation for actors-as she said, to promote a movie, not to be embarrassed by exploitative jerks for ratings and headlines. David Letterman condemned his own reputation for professionalism and decency in this short clip.
He's asking such inappropriate questions he's literally the worst talk show host of all time I don't know why people think that he's good, he just asks stupid questions and keeps on pressing the matter till they just break down wtff
I saw Paris Hilton's interview after the "slammer" and couldn't have enjoyed it more because I think Hilton is a joke. Lindsay Lohan is a different story. Letterman is evil and not funny here. I feel for this lady because I think she suffers.
Some of his questions were completely unnecessary and rude of him to ask her. It was obvious that she was uncomfortable in this interview once he started asking about rehab and drinking etc. And she even said they didn’t mention this before when they were getting ready for the interview so were those just unexpected rude questions from him that put her on the spot or something. And when she asked to talk about something positive, poor girl :( I grew up with Lindsay because I watched her movies ever since I was a little kid and I’m 25 now. She is a wonderful beautiful kind talented actress that deserves to be treated with respect
Truely digusting seeing an old white man sit there and humiliate another human for his own enjoyment. If you have to degrade someone for a cheap laugh your evil. No apology would ever make this okay. Grown ass man doing such a petty thing . It's so infuriating
Same here, Sara. LiLo deserves an overdue apology from the press for the way they treated her, girl. BTW no offense but LiLo owns Tove Lo, Melanie Martinez and Hailee Steinfeld. P.S. LiLo is doing good nowadays. Thanks, girl. LiLo 4 life, girl. #LiLo4Life
Lindsay handled herself very well tbh she always has in interviews, here you can literally see her heart beating, you can tell she’s passionate about acting and loves to talk about her movies, some other celebrities would get very snappy and storm off but Lohan always keeps her cool through different tacts (1) Looks uncomfortable, hopes that hint would come across (2) Truthfully just answers the questions (3) Asks to not talk about it anymore (4) Make jokes and laugh it off, Lohan unfairly got slammed by the media, but she actually does have talent and class, sure she has her problems but she should have to only talk about them and dismiss her work
@karlc2869 Well duh she’s moved on, she probably got over it the following day, doesn’t mean we can’t view and opinionate on old videos. And the past shouldn’t be forgotten, knowing the past is how we learn and evolve
I know what you mean. How can anyone treat another person this way? It is not the right thing to do to air other people's issues in that way. Linsday deserves better treatment than that. She is a talented actress and the way she was treated could have had a detrimental impact upon her.

Letterman is such a Jerk!!! Putting Lindsey on the spot like that is disgusting. At least she's trying to get help. He should have been supportive of her efforts rather than dehumanizing her. What a pig
After this horrible treatment of another human being, how the f**k is David Letterman still in tv? He should have been fired on the spot and canceled. I'm sorry, Lindsay.
I was definitely on the bandwagon back in the day of disappointment in my favorite childhood starlet, but damn she really has come out of the other side of public shaming so gracefully and with such self motivated dignity.
“We didn’t discuss this in the preinterview”
“No we didn’t...”
That should have been the end of it
Shut up snowflake
She ain't a snowflake
Should’ve been the end of it before the segment even started.
@@notapplicable1282 so it's fucking wrong to stand up for people when they're humiliated and belittled now ?
@@hmm2084 they are not humiliated. she got though questions. so what?
Linsay won me over here. She tried her best to be poised and in my opinion, handled herself really well. I wish her the best.
Well put! Especially since she wasn’t even told he’d ask her these questions. I would have just shut down. Especially after all of the vitriol she’s experienced, she’s amazing.
@@JMarie-lf1rs She knew he was going to ask, despite the pre-interview comment. Dave ALWAYS asks. He's always been like that. So she at least knew it was possible.
@@billybatson7852 the preinterview should have all the questions, that's a fact, david is a sick senile and very sad man triggering her for no plausible reason.
@@vicparaleigos Yes, but pre-interview agreements are broken quite a bit. Either she or her publicist who arranged it - or both - had to be complete idiots to think that Dave wouldn't bring it up. He had a history of going after guests for this kind of stuff. And what do you mean for no plausible reason? She went to an awards show on the same fucking day that she went into jail, for god's sake... and then immediately tried to get attention for the product she was selling before the stench of the jail was even off her. Let's not pretend that Paris was an innocent person here. She knew what she might be getting into with Dave, but she was desperate for attention and money.
@@vicparaleigos She liked making jokes about her life. But his innocent but harsh question "how is this [rehab] time be different?" hurt her. But she recovered from it and hit back with jokes. Letterman is innocent.
What a horrible way to treat a human. She handled his rudeness very well

what a spoiled brat f u!!@ she doesnt get to choose the questions!!! no reputable interviewer bends to a dimwits will
@UCIzsQiUoJ6NrGcNEWPx04Og Please shut the hell up, you clearly have no social awareness to understand the objective situation here. He continued to unnecessarily make insensitive questions and comments on something she insisted was NOT supposed to be brought up in the interview.
This is not the case of her being a spoiled brat because "too bad you don't get to choose the question, he's the interviewer". If you knew anything about what these late night interviews do, it's clear cut he did this to openly mock her substance abuse which you would never do to any self-respecting human being. Letterman is the brat in this case, pretending like it's okay to keep pushing his luck by disrespecting a guest for desperate attention. You're most likely a sociopathic narcissistic. Please get psychologically evaluated before you get knocked out by someone with a human conscious.

The audience laughing is the worst
in their defense, they just could have been uncomfortable by the whole thing
Ya, sadly the audience doesn’t have a choice. They’re paid to literally sit & clap. If u don’t clap or show enthusiasm, you get kicked out. So it’s sucks when people get set as audience members on crap shows & don’t want to keep applauding- but have to :(
@@brigettenicole2943 i don’t think they get paid.
@@dkdkxkcjfjfjfj they do. I used to work on shows & get paid for just sitting in as an audience member. half the audience is paid & the other half are tourists/ppl that want to check out the studio/shows.
Back during this interview, everyone was laughing at her. I'm not saying it's right, but Dave wasn't alone in his mockery. And, hell, people online TODAY are much worse. Just look at any post made by Christy Teigen.
"I've been in here since I was 7" 1:43 . There was deep pain and a sense of betrayal in that sentence.
Yes. And I see something deeper and darker and sadder here. Specifically from minute 2:15 forward. Lindsay cries and inside she feels like someone worthless, who lives only to amuse people at the cost of trampling on her own human being. She even makes the rehab and vodka joke to reaffirm that. "I am a clown that serves to make people laugh. But I am worth nothing inside." And Lindsay cries keeping her smile, she cries but still crying she tries to make the others laugh. Her face (beloved and beautiful face) makes an effort to smile while crying. And also to appear funny while inside she feels that she is only useful to be made fun of. That's why now 2023 that she is already a mom, I love seeing that she is a new and better person. I love to see that she is happy. She inspires and wants to bring happiness to the world. Precious Lindsay. God bless her always. Love to Lindsay
And.... yet no one else calls her out on it... All the other people just let her promote her film and ignore the pain, let her get away with the terrible behavior. Good on Dave for not covering it up.
@@lolpaladinspublic humiliation of an addict isn’t helping anyone. Her drama filled life and the extreme bullying from the media probably contributed to her bad choices. Making people feel like crap isn’t it.
@@lolpaladins She was trying to fulfill her job obligations, not be asked about her addiction issues for entertainment. That's not anyone's business, certainly not David Letterman's.
@@lolpaladins"good on Dave"? What the fuck? How is publicly shaming her supposed to overcome her flaws? That could've ended with her taking her own life out of depression. I hope you've adjusted your worldview a bit
What’s crazy is he’s had her on the show since she was a child. How can he not think back on her as that child and be ashamed of the way he disrespected her. I think she tried to make this point too. When she said “I’ve been on this show since I was seven”
Imagine behaving like this to someone you knew when they were just a kid and you were literally already a grown ass adult.
For shame.
He was scolding her .
@@MrMagicglass more like public humiliation. What good was he honestly hoping to achieve there.. if he cared about her well being enough to constructively scold her, it definitely could have been a personal call or conversation, imo
Cassie D That's not crazy...that's Hollywood. How many _OTHER_ child stars have had their lives ruined b/c of Hollywood enabling them to have access to drugs at such a young age? And nothing is said or done about it. It's criminal. Instead of trying to help them, they turn their backs on them (and/or ridicule them). I'm just glad this girl has straightened her life out now(so I hear).
@@cl8onj388 I'm not saying its unusual or uncommon, I'm just saying its not right.
I agree that it's criminal. Its disgusting how Hollywood treats children; I don't have much good to say about most of the parents either.
I'm glad to hear she's on a better path now too.
@@cassied9327 I'm just glad she didn't end up like Dana Plato, the actress from "Different Strokes". She was found dead in a trailer of a drug overdose. They turned a blind eye to her. Really sad.
So much respect for Lindsay in the interview here, couldn't have handled the situation better
“i wouldn’t know i’d have to find out in rehab” “i thought this was vodka” DAMN. she had more wit and comedic value than he did throughout the entirety of his cringe act.
@Witty Witty For somebody called “Witty Witty”, you don’t seem to have much wit.
Letterman did that at the edict of his exist boss Les Moonves. I mean, look at LiLo now, she's back on her feet while Les Moonves on the other hand, is jobless now, LOL.
@Witty Witty She's still human, dude. Stop hating.
Exactly !!!! Lindsey kept her composure so well and she stayed so professional about it while being able to have better humor than he did. She won 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
@@karlc2869 LEtterman did nothing because of Les. Les is a billonare living out his life.

@@meepmorp99 nope. She literally said "it's hurtful towards me.."

People are expected to relapse even after relapse. So no she’s not a failure for relapsing
Yesss...it's actually part of recovery! The thing is to not let it bring you back down, one day at a time!
This is so gross. She was shoved into a corner here, he was forcing these issues until she addressed them (which she clearly didn’t want to!) Disgusting 🤢🤮🤬
EDIT: Woah I did not expect all these likes! 😲😂😂😂
Yes, it was pretty brutal. I liked Dave, I never seen him be such an insensitive prick here. I couldn’t believe what an ass he was. No wonder this girl has had all her problems, having to be mocked in front of the whole world. Felt bad for her, hope she’s doing alright.

@@hus390 Letterman is innocent? Absolutely not. An idiot could see that she was uncomfortable with what was being asked of her. Either he was too blind to see this or he could see it and didn’t care. That woman could have had a breakdown right on that stage with what was being said to her, but she desperately tried to hold it together as she knew all eyes were on her. She even said she hadn’t discussed this in the pre-interview, so obviously she wasn’t expecting this. She just wanted to promote her movie and instead she got inundated with ignorant questions about her rehab. Appalling.
Very uncomfortable to watch she clearly don’t wana talk about it yet he persists
Then she shouldn't have gone on the show. It's not like his tough questions and mockery were a secret.
@@billybatson7852 actually it was. You heard she saying that they didn't talk about some of his questions at the pre-interview. She was clearly uncomfortable.
@@thaisterra2797 Bullshit. He had been on air for several years and her agent and publicist or whoever booked it would have known his history of asking tough questions. How would that be a secret when all she or her "people" had to do was watch old episodes? lol
That being said, it's very clear that he assumed she'd be able to handle the tough questions, but the moment he noticed how weak she was, he tried to cover it with jokes and adoration from the audience. He wasn't trying to be malicious. He just put way too much stock in how strong he thought she was.
@@billybatson7852 she said that those things weren’t discussed in the preinterview
good it's his show he can talk about the weather if he wants to, the nerve on these celebrities thinking they can tell the host what to talk about on his show pff
Wasn't a big Lindsay Lohan fan til now. She stayed strong, human, funny and made Dave look like a shmuck. Didnt Letterman admit to his own sobriety problems yrs prior to this interview?? How richly ironic he relished exploiting others same struggle and pain he knew of so well. Likely Dave rationalizes he was just giving her some "tough love". Clearly that didn't work considering the longterm damage she still endures. Letterman revealed here he was the classic hippocrite and sociopath. Nice legacy he has!!
Letterman has NOTHING to do with Lohan's troubles. If she was that fragile, then she shouldn't be going on interviews for attention. She knew that Letterman wasn't like the other talk show hosts that kiss everyone's ass. She HAD to know he would likely bring it up. I think he just misjudged her reaction. I'm not sure if he had issues before this, but then why didn't she give him shit right back? Besides, you can tell that Dave realized that it was upsetting her and then tried to do a course correction. So he clearly wasn't being malicious.
@@billybatson7852 That’s a pretty naive statement to make my guy. People go on talk shows all the time who have personal issues in life & aren’t treated the way Lindsay was treated. By that logic, you better be holding yourself to the same standard that everything bad that happens to you is your fault. But you don’t do that, you know why? Because deep down you know it’s not true. Treat others the same. Stop sticking your head in the sand & being ignorant & then whinge when people take the time out of their own days to shine light on a different perspective which is far more logical than your own. You should be thanking them. Besides, majority of talk shows, they do a pre-interview & usually the publicist & manager will be involved giving a list of questions the celebrity doesn’t feel comfortable asking. So that’s actually a physical action that was taken that’s factually wrong too. Just say you’re a misogynist and move on.
@@cutecookie1111 I actually do hold myself to that standard most of the time, my broad... my chick-a-dee. But more importantly, if I'm not doing well in life and having problems, I'm certainly not going to go on a talk show where the host is known for giving guests shit. My two exes... let's see... one got into meth and abandoned me and my son and I still blame myself for not seeing it sooner. My more recent ex ended up being a Little who liked Daddies and I blame myself for not seeing that earlier, too. Now I'm staying away from such things and am very happy. So no... I don't blame them at all. It was my fault for not seeing them that way before I got heavily involved.
As for being a misogynist... I WISH!!!!!!!!!!! To date, I've sacrificed probably 40k to women for various reasons... and have used much of that money to help women friends to get out of dangerous or harmful situations with no benefit to me. Last year, I helped a female friend get out of a hurtful relationship with a drug addict to the tune of $600 only to have her go back to him six months later and never pay me back. In fact, she cut me off because he's now in control of her life. But if she was to come back tomorrow because he had abandoned her and she needed my help? Yup... I'd do it.
Also, I just gave another $40 to a female friend who is 1000+ miles away from me so she could have money for food despite the fact that I've given her about $400 in the past and never asked for any of it back. She only asked for $10, but I gave her $40 because $10 seemed low.
But yeah... I'm a misogynist. Tell me again.
@@billybatson7852 Letterman didn't have anything to do with Lohans troubles as far as I know, but just because she has issues doesn't mean she is fragile. She isn't on the show for attention for herself. She was there for the movie she is in. Major job actors do, apart from acting in the film, is to advertise the movie and usually actors use their own fame to do so. She was doing her job. She being on the show doesn't mean he can parade around with her crap and have a laugh about it. And as to why didn't she give him shit back? She has been through the trouble, maybe more so than Letterman maybe it doesn't even cross her mind to pull that crap? She said that stuff leterman said wasn't brought up on preinterview. That would mean that it doesn't get brought up. She was probably caught off guard. but yea, he noticed the error of his way. Late, but better late than never I guess. He was pretty old at that point already.
Feeling weird about her. Somehow I empathize and I validate her pain. But her trying to kidnapp those kids 2 years ago and telling them to watch some movies with her... Idk She's kinda of dark tbh. 👀👀 I just don't full support her now after that. I know she needs help, but come on 👀👁️👄👁️
Jesus....this is exactly why I've never liked Letterman.
I'm so glad that we've reached a point where addiction is no longer considered a joke and that we are starting to take the mental health of ourselves and others more seriously. This was a terrible interview and it was obviously bringing up some terrible emotions for Lindsay. I hope she can make it through to the other side. She's a talented actress and has a great personality, she shouldn't lose any more years to this disease.
she got addicted because she chose to take drugs. If you don't want to talk about it, don't go to Letterman.
@@evertvdb000 you have a very simplistic view of addiction of how addiction alters someone both mentally and physically and you seemingly also don't understand that actors are contractually obligated to appear on talk shows as part of the promotion of their movie projects. Talking about personal struggles on talks shows is not a requirement and if the actor is ok to talk about their personal demons there is a right way and a wrong way for an interviewer to approach it.
@@thyop89 If you don't want to be contractually obligated to appear in talkshows, don't sign the contract. You make it seems that she's a 'victim'. she's not. nobody forced her to take drugs. she made that decision all by herself. Nobody forces her to go to the talkshow. she is there for 1 and only 1 reason: personal gain. Letterman sees through that, and he can ask any question he likes. it's his show.
@@evertvdb000 sounds like you have a an axe to grind against someone. Sorry you are unable to find sympathy for someone who is having a hard time, i agree that addicts can be very damaging to people around them. I obviously can't change your mind but trying to understand their mindset will help you understand why people end up in that position and why they find it so hard to recover without a lot of help. It's not as simple as just being weak or lazy or selfish.
@@thyop89 You are wrong, i have no 'axe to grind' against noone. I have a lot of sympathy for people in difficult positions, I have no sympathy for people who got very lucky, but threw it away. Lindsay has no talent, just got lucky, because she had more or less a cute face. after a few movies, it was over. she tried to revive her career, via Letterman. Bad choice. Not lettermans fault. he was to make an interesting show, if not, ratings drop and he has to fire people.
What an awful man. I would've walked away from that interview if I were her, but I think she handled it really well.
Whatever he was trying to accomplish here had zero positives behind it. Just odd
U say letterman is an awful man?? He's not the one doing drugs and drinking and getting DUI's etc.. hello.. drinking while driving.. Lindsey could've killed someone driving intoxicated...
@@tonyho5611 LiLo is still human, jabroni. Don't blame her, blame her shitty parents and of course, the moronic media.
Honestly, she should have walked away. She should not have sat there and tolerated that abuse. I know it’s very difficult for people in those moments. But looking back, I wonder if she wishes she hadn’t walked out.
@@tonyho5611He says elsewhere that he used to be a huge alcoholic, from a very young age. So I think there is actually concern for her in this interview. He probably sees her self destructing and knows exactly what that's like.
i hate to break it to you all but letterman pretty much made a career out of teasing and belittling his guests. just watch when richard simmons would come on. he also had affairs with women on his staff and is notoriously cold and dismissive of everyone. take him or leave him but that’s his deal. but now he has a lame netflix series where he tries to be woke and sanctimonious and that doesn’t fly.
I was watching a video of him and Jennifer Connelly, it made me so upset. She was taking about how her education was important, encouraging young people to go to college but if not, to have a love of learning. Letterman interrupted her to talk about how hot her legs were. She looked so uncomfortable but she joked back, trying to be cool about it. Heaven forbid she talk about anything other than her looks.
RyanInLA I remember watching him when I was much younger and HATING HIM. I couldn’t put my finger on it but I thought something was off about him and thought he seemed super fake. I thought to myself, “If I ever became famous I would NEVER go on his show.”
I was really happy and pleased when Jimmy Fallon became the host of “The Tonight Show.” People give him crap because they think he’s fake but I don’t think he’s bullshitting his audience at all I think he’s just NICE. Fallon is lovable and funny and he’s a super talented singer! I think he deserves to be a talk show host. I appreciate him and James Corden a lot they are a breath of fresh air. They are actually talented and funny on their own, unlike Letterman.
Letterman isn’t talented or funny the only reason he lasted as long as he did was because he’s mean spirited and was good at poking fun at his guests
Letterman felt entitled to use his position and power to reduce celebs "down to size" to prove they were no better than anyone else. He did this subtlety and overtly by cutting them off, dismissing, shaming, and harassing them right to their face. Maybe he felt some of his audience got off on his ego trip. In reality most people with a modicum of self-awareness could see his sociopathic tendancies to destroy others while justifying it with his own bs.
Which is why he was always behind Leno...Leno never took personal shots are people like Dave does ....
@@sunnystreet4950 I hate to break it to you but you've always been a peice of shit for having the mindset that it's funny.
So glad people are finally seeing how mean and awful this dude is.
I’ve been done with that creep when he put jennifer aniston’s hair in his mouth
The way the media mistreated young girls back then was so cruel. I hope society learns from this. It’s the reason why these girls went off the rails
Agreed. Both the media and society picked these young females in Tinseltown and treated them badly as if they were some corrupt government officials and politicians (like Eliot Spitzer and Anthony Weiner). SMH.
Thanks to the Britney Spears documentaries (Framing Britney Spears and Controlling Britney Spears) in 2021, people have now realized that the media really wanted the female stars to fail. Former Nickelodeon star Jennette McCurdy (of iCarly and Sam & Cat) said it best: The media only wants to see a former child celeb fall off the rails and I agree with her. Therefore, the media and society both need to change they treat celebs and stop laughing at their mishaps and miscues for ratings, greed and money. They are still humans despite of what they went through. The media and society should also realize that they have kids too. I mean, you listening, Harvey Levin, Adam Buckley, Jian Ghomeshi, Kelly Ripa, Catt Sadler, Katie Couric, Bryant Gumbel, Mario Lopez, Ted Turner, Vince McMahon, Ana Kasparian, Cenk Uygur, Jerry Penacoli, former President Donald Trump, etc.?
Society = mob think = never really good cus society = brainwash
They still treat them poorly…

With #cancelculture and with everyone literally being the media due to social media I actually think it’s even worse now, people are such sheep and have an inability to let things go
How uncomfortable:(
The thing is she can make as many jokes about herself as she wants, but no one has the right to joke about her without her consent
Calling bs on your statement there nICO. That right is afforded by the first amendment
I mean. You definitely don’t need someone’s consent to make jokes about them lol. But I think I get what you’re trying to say. She can joke about herself, but when Letterman does it it’s different. It’s like he’s laughing at her not with her
He wasn't making a joke , he was asking private personal questions in front of an audience when none of that had been discussed to be talked about in the pre interview.
Consent to speak about someone now lol. Ffs. You should need consent to write such bullshit. You should need a bullshit permit or something that people need to consent to.

@@notreally2406 She wasn't there to talk about it
@@notreally2406 because she didn't wanted to address that. He didn't get her consent to speak on her private matters
@wittywitty6352 I would have understood if she was a criminal that was on a show where they detect lies and ask for the truth. Like one of those real life cops-situations.
This lady was here to get better though and she openly talked about her addiction and rehab before. She was going to rehab, she said that, it was not like she kept that a secret.
But _why_ she drinks or abuses too much, is private and when she declines that question, it is rude to keep pushing it. And if you do that with 6-7 questions, it's just rudeness alltogether. Again, we're not talking about a hardened criminal here that is trying to keep the place of the dismembered body a secret. We're talking about a girl with rehab-plans.
That made me really sad. My fiancé died from addiction. It’s nothing to make light of. What a jerk.
Sorry to hear that. BTW if Johnny Carson, Steve Allen, Jack Paar, Tom Snyder and Alan Thicke were alive and saw this, they would be disgusted with Dave. Not only that, they would be disgusted with the whole media. SMH.
The fact that she said I’ve been here since I was 7 and he just doesn’t have any remorse in his face I hate Hollywood
Lindsay’s smirk after Letterman says, “you have enough poise to come out here and talk about it” tells me that she very clearly wasn’t planning on talking about it. She was forced to stick it out and speak. Letterman really is such a jerk.

this is not akward, this is ABUSIVE
WOW. She had every right to leave that interview when he crossed boundaries. She was clearly uncomfortable talking about it. Notice at 1:56 he gets manipulative and tries to make it sound like he’s helping show how strong she is by goading her in to talking about a touchy subject, and watch her expressions after 2:03 - she is PISSED at him and trying to hold it together and later tries to hide behind a joke to conceal how angry she is.
"I've been here since I was 7"
"How many times do you think you've been here?"
"I wouldn't know I'll have to find out in rehab!"
The way she makes jokes about it! She handled the rudeness better than I ever could
I would like to see him pick on someone bigger and stronger than him.
He roasted Bill O’Reilly, so.
She is bigger and stronger than him.
You should watch Aishwarya Rai's interview on the Letterman show. It's satisfying! 😂
I would love to see her have a career come back. She was so wronged and unsupported in her early career! With her parents etc too. She never stood a fair chance really. But was pretty and talented, worked hard etc.

this is so sad
Always hated Letterman. Real comedians don't go after easy targets.
This girl deserved BETTER. From her horrible family, tô the media. We failed her
The irony that Letterman was a raging alcoholic in his own personal life. So glad he lost the platform to bully and try to belittle young women.
Yeah I don’t get how him being an alcoholic himself would think this was okay, he asks her “Is it alcohol? Do you drink too much” and she says “we’ve already discussed this because you…” and he cut her off before she could say “you have the same problem”

That smile she put on pretending not to be hurt. I felt that.
Our society really sucks. She was amazing.
Exactly. The media and society owe LiLo an apology.
BTW LiLo is amazing indeed. Thanks, girl.
I HATE THIS SO MUCH HOW PEOPLE CAN BE SO DISGUSTING, I would literally leave immediately, she is so strong and inspiring
Indeed. Thanks, girl.
Wow!!! I think I’m a Lindsay fan now… Bless her heart seriously!! My heart broke for her watching this. One of the hardest things when freshly kicking an addiction is having it constantly put in your mind & being in stressful situations without your “crutch”. She was thrown into both here at once. She did so well but broke my heart to see her crying & trying so hard to hold it back & trying to crack a joke at her own expense too. Poor girl, honestly, but what a lady!!…. Really made me wanna jump back in time, through the screen, take her out of that situation & take her for a coffee & a smile.
Dave Chappelle once said: The worst thing to do is call someone crazy.
how people have respect for him i will never know.

Brutes look to up bigger brutes.
“It’s not funny because it’s hurtful towards me.” No one even listened 😞
This was so disgusting, he harassed her about her addiction, he humiliated her about rehab. What a small insignificant being he is.
In my opinion
This is what you get when you feed someone money.
And treat them like royalty.
It even goes to the heighth of lettermens chair.
His chair higher then his guests.
As if to have power.
Egos.
Feed them and expect this.
and she knew she couldnt really react because thats exactly what they wanted and they wouldve milked the reaction :/ this is so hard to watch but she handled it so well
Literally why was this man even born.
I wonder if he would've treated Robert Downey jr this bad? I don't think so because Robert Downey would've told him off on camera and then walked off stage. Letterman, you're the worst joke in Hollywood. You got no right to judge
He was never in hollywood. It's New York.
@@jamesanderson6373 yes and all those HOLLYWOOD guests he has humiliated and belittled are laughing at him. So yes. He is quite a joke in Hollywood.
The vodka joke was sharp!👏👏👏
If you’re on a show to promote a movie, that’s what should happen. Nothing else.
NOOO YOU CAN'T JUST ASK TOUGH QUESTIONS IN AN INTERVIEW!
@@imhatepie haha rehab questions go brrrr
@Blue Jazz that’s stupid because it can make the guests uncomfortable.
@@imhatepie there’s a huge difference between asking tough questions and publicly humiliating someone
Ugh I love her.... she handled this with so much poise and grace.
Letterman has always been creepy.
He is a bit of an ass to be honest
My wife is almost two years sober. If I was in that crowd, you’d heard choice words, that wouldn’t have stopped until I was removed. What a ps.
she should of said "aren't you supposed to be ina retirement home?" props to linsay💗
😂 🔥🧯
Man if I had this control over myself. I’d be very proud. Well done Lindsey.
I NEVER FORGOT THEY WAY HE TREATED HER HERE...AND I NEVER RESPECTED HIM SINCE...
She cried because he complimented her, you douchebag. Turn off your caps lock old man. No one cares who you respect.
@@ejflor1313 awww. you can't read comments without gettin butt hurt? You need to watch this video again.... oh wait I forgot you you're an idiot... :P
@@ejflor1313 she probably was already on the verge of tears after he was such a total scumbag to her the entire time.
@@artistzamira6360 u twitter tards needs to take ur sjw somewhere else dont be a snowflake
@@aswadsheikh8051 Aww..poor snowflake can't handle that people have different opinions..go cry in a corner :P
Her pleading with him by saying she’s been coming here since she was 7 is heartbreaking 🥺 poor Lindsay
I'd be the woman from the audience at the end shouting 'Love you Lindsay!'
2:53
I’ve always felt so terrible for her. who knows what she’s gone through or was made to go through. I’m happy she’s doing better now. I’ve always liked her, she has such a sweet presence and light to her.
Les Moonves and David Letterman owes LiLo an apology. In fact, the WHOLE MEDIA owes LiLo an overdue apology.
She handled herself gracefully. I like her. Hope to see more movies of her.
She made a comeback on Netflix last year. BTW IKR.
Thanks, girl. LiLo forever, girl.
Lindsay is such a winner and strong person
Frankly, we probably watched this then and didn’t think it was wrong
Wow they really thought that making a joke out of rehab and relapsing was a great idea 🤦🏽 smh..
You can tell she’s uncomfortable. I feel so bad for her. Way to handle it with grace tho. He was being such a D***
I strongly dislike how he puts people down.
He is interrogating instead of interviewing
I’ve never tolerated Letterman and now I have another reason. He has always been rude and ignorant
lindsay was so mature
Just as well you retired, Dave
"Yes. They're still making those." is the realist thing in this whole video
How he dares to be so rude when he is a predator
1:57 was what made her cry
I have a hard time getting through a normal week, yet while at a low point she's able to handle being embarrassed on national television by an absolute creep of a human being, and still get through it better than me trying to get through a Monday. I cant imagine being in her shoes and how I would react.
This is really gross. Lindsay Lohan is a deeply troubled person who obviously was making efforts to improve her life, and Letterman humiliated her. Regardless of what he thought he was doing, she felt humiliated. She looked off camera, surely at her publicist or a producer, and stated as a professional that this topic had not been cleared for discussion and Letterman was relentless. She's a former child star, which comes with its own traumas and baggage, and whether she continually relapses or not, she was trying. A person's personal struggles are not obligated to be part of their work, and doing media interviews is a contractual obligation for actors-as she said, to promote a movie, not to be embarrassed by exploitative jerks for ratings and headlines. David Letterman condemned his own reputation for professionalism and decency in this short clip.
Not sure why Letterman gets so nasty with people he invites on his show. Lohan is actually behaving so give her a chance. Is this clickbait 101.
I feel so bad for her. I didn't know he could be so tone deaf and awful. She did a great job of holding it together.
She's moved on tho.
1:48 The face David made. He can dish it out, but he can’t take it.
He's asking such inappropriate questions he's literally the worst talk show host of all time I don't know why people think that he's good, he just asks stupid questions and keeps on pressing the matter till they just break down wtff
I saw Paris Hilton's interview after the "slammer" and couldn't have enjoyed it more because I think Hilton is a joke. Lindsay Lohan is a different story. Letterman is evil and not funny here. I feel for this lady because I think she suffers.
Some of his questions were completely unnecessary and rude of him to ask her. It was obvious that she was uncomfortable in this interview once he started asking about rehab and drinking etc. And she even said they didn’t mention this before when they were getting ready for the interview so were those just unexpected rude questions from him that put her on the spot or something. And when she asked to talk about something positive, poor girl :( I grew up with Lindsay because I watched her movies ever since I was a little kid and I’m 25 now. She is a wonderful beautiful kind talented actress that deserves to be treated with respect
So hurtful. Why was this necessary?
Truely digusting seeing an old white man sit there and humiliate another human for his own enjoyment. If you have to degrade someone for a cheap laugh your evil. No apology would ever make this okay. Grown ass man doing such a petty thing . It's so infuriating
This interview is fucked up, why was the interviewer not fired. And he thinks he is funny.
This is so uncomfortable to watch.. I feel so bad for her.
Same here, Sara. LiLo deserves an overdue apology from the press for the way they treated her, girl.
BTW no offense but LiLo owns Tove Lo, Melanie Martinez and Hailee Steinfeld.
P.S. LiLo is doing good nowadays. Thanks, girl. LiLo 4 life, girl.
#LiLo4Life
Lindsay handled herself very well tbh she always has in interviews, here you can literally see her heart beating, you can tell she’s passionate about acting and loves to talk about her movies, some other celebrities would get very snappy and storm off but Lohan always keeps her cool through different tacts (1) Looks uncomfortable, hopes that hint would come across (2) Truthfully just answers the questions (3) Asks to not talk about it anymore (4) Make jokes and laugh it off, Lohan unfairly got slammed by the media, but she actually does have talent and class, sure she has her problems but she should have to only talk about them and dismiss her work
She has moved on. She's married with a kid already. Let's forget the past.
Thanks, girl. LiLo 4 life, girl.
@karlc2869
Well duh she’s moved on, she probably got over it the following day, doesn’t mean we can’t view and opinionate on old videos.
And the past shouldn’t be forgotten, knowing the past is how we learn and evolve
This makes me so sad.
I know what you mean. How can anyone treat another person this way? It is not the right thing to do to air other people's issues in that way. Linsday deserves better treatment than that. She is a talented actress and the way she was treated could have had a detrimental impact upon her.

She looks like she's about to cry, feel sorry for her
Letterman is such a Jerk!!! Putting Lindsey on the spot like that is disgusting. At least she's trying to get help. He should have been supportive of her efforts rather than dehumanizing her. What a pig
Agree. Lost a lot of respect for letterman for this and the Paris Hilton interview.
After this horrible treatment of another human being, how the f**k is David Letterman still in tv? He should have been fired on the spot and canceled. I'm sorry, Lindsay.
What a horrible man to make fun of somebody’s addiction
I hate this interviewer. On many interviews he has made a bunch of people uncomfortable
0:50 she was like ' Oooohh no '
I was definitely on the bandwagon back in the day of disappointment in my favorite childhood starlet, but damn she really has come out of the other side of public shaming so gracefully and with such self motivated dignity.
