Good Morning Britain host Richard Madeley slammed Chris Rock on air earlier this week as the “rudest man” he ever interviewed. The comments came following the release of Rock’s latest stand-up comedy special for Netflix, Selective Outrage.
“I’m not defending what happened to him, it’s wrong, completely wrong. But in 50 years in this game, he is the rudest man I’ve ever had to interview, Chris Rock,” Madeley said, referring to the infamous Oscars slap. He then recalled how he spoke with Rock alongside Ben Stiller while they were promoting the 2005 film, Madagascar. “I have to say, it stands out in my memory. He was just consistently unbelievably rude. A thoroughly unpleasant piece of work.” He joked: “I didn’t smack him though, I kept my hands to himself.” His co-host remarked that they should try to bring Rock on the show to address the incident, to which Madeley agreed.
