Lorne Michaels admits to being "aloof" but denies being "tyrannical"...
...in never-before-heard 2004 60 Minutes interview
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv...ew-1236010350/ The long-running CBS News newsmagazine has launched a podcast called 60 Minutes: A Second Look, which weaves together interviews Lesley Stahl conducted with Michaels for a 2004 profile. The episode, "From Saturday Night Live to Sunday with 60 Minutes,” revolves around the lore around Michaels and his management approach, according to The Hollywood Reporter. At one point, Stahl can be heard asking him if he was, as she’d heard, “aloof” and “sometimes tyrannical.” Michaels confirms the former (“definitely”), but denies the latter, noting: “Tyrannical I can’t respond to because I’d have to have a big outburst and be tyrannical to either prove or disprove it.” Michaels also denied that he was prone to outbursts. The podcast also reveals Michaels' unaired reaction to Stahl to Ashlee Simpson’s infamous 2004 lip-sync snafu. “I think accidents happen. I think that's the nature of live television,” Michaels told Stahl. |
