Hugh Laurie Admits He Was Tipsy When He Roasted A Critic
- Why Hugh Laurie was extra sassy online.
- The journalist who sparked the fire.
- Our take on the ‘House’ vibe.
We just saw a confession that makes us love Hugh Laurie even more. The British star admitted he was “very slightly drunk” when he sent a mean reply to a critic. Relatable? Yes. Bold? Absolutely.
It all started when journalist Janet Murray watched House for the first time. She didn’t like it. She wrote a review that wasn’t very nice about the Fox series. Hugh saw it. He decided to hit back with a sharp, waspish comment.
We think the whole situation fits the ‘House’ aesthetic perfectly. Think deep blues, cold hospital hallways, and a grumpy doctor in a rumpled suit. Hugh was just living the brand! Speaking of stars we adore, Emily & John’s ‘Disclosure Day’ is pure cuteness overload.
Hugh eventually came clean about his liquid courage. It’s funny because he is usually so polite. But even a world-class actor has those moments. He isn’t the only one standing up for themselves either. Maanvi Gagroo recently shut down trolls fat-shaming her co-star.
Honestly, we think the world needs more honesty like this. No PR filters. Just a guy, a drink, and a grumpy mood. If you need something lighter, Carlos Bardem’s new comedy sounds like a total blast.
Our Take
We think this is hilarious. Most stars pretend they never read reviews. Hugh Laurie not only read it but replied while tipsy. It makes him feel human. We love the honesty. Dr. House would definitely approve of the sass.
