Seeing as someone mentioned Michael Bay:



If you think that was painful and embarrassing, Michael, now you know how everyone felt who sat through Transformers II (not me, I hasten to add).

I saw this earlier & thought it was odd. People were saying he's MK Ultra, but maybe he's just not comfortable speaking without prompts in front of folk.

The executive and the celebrity pretend to be the best friends in the world with some pathetic back and forth banter, on this occasion the autocue / teleprompter broke. Being a director, he's actually not that used to being in front of an audience, so he fucked off.

That was how I read it too. A bit sad that someone who's creative can't manage a conversation about what he's so passionate about without an autocue. But maybe he's shy

Gilly wrote: I agree; he is one of the world's most reviled directors, though! I do think, though, that because he's 'famous' people think that he wouldn't get nervous about being in that situation whereas I can appreciate that he probably would.

Why's he reviled?

So Apple employ psychic iWitches now, interesting!
