David Letterman’s question that left Jennifer
Letterman’s Controversial Interviews
David Letterman, once celebrated for his wit,
is being reexamined for uncomfortable interactions with
female guests, including Jennifer Aniston.
During her 2006 appearance promoting The Break-Up, Letterman repeatedly focused on her legs, saying,
“That’s a tremendous outfit… because you have tremendous legs,” and later, “I can’t get over your legs.”
Awkward and Invasive Moments
He also pressed Aniston about her rumored romance with co-star Vince Vaughn,
even asking if he wanted her to appear naked in the film.
Earlier, in 1998, Letterman grabbed her neck and “sucked on a strand of her hair,”
moments that have since gone viral.
Public Reaction
Clips of these encounters resurfacing online have sparked outrage and
renewed discussions on the treatment of women in late-night television.
Cultural Reflection
Despite the discomfort, Aniston handled the interviews with professionalism.
Today, these moments highlight how standards have shifted,
showing that behavior once dismissed as “humor” is now recognized as inappropriate and disrespectful.
