I Love John Stamos
In an interview with The Advocate that was released this week, John Stamos admitted that in an interview on Australian television back in 2007, he was drunk. This of course would explain his bizarre antics including reading the host's lines on the teleprompter and making some gestures that were probably not appropriate for television.
John didn't care that he was drunk. I mean he cared, but not really. He said in the Advocate interview, "I'll be honest: When I went on that morning show, I was drunk. Yes, I was on sleeping pills and I was jet-lagged, but I was also just plastered. And I never said I wasn't, but that whole Warner Bros. publicity machine got involved and said, 'Just say he was jet-lagged.'"
The people at Warner Brothers were all freaked out and wanted it all to be spun, but Stamos, said, "No, tell 'em the truth! I was f****** drunk in Australia. Big deal."
I love that he wanted to tell the truth and the suits wouldn't let him. No one believes those sleeping pill stories anyway. Just tell the truth and be done with it.
Below is his appearance on the show.
