Katie Couric has revealed she was once left “shaken” after an “uncomfortable” interview with Denzel Washington.
Couric rephrased her question again, asking, “Are you an actor who would rather not – ”, but Washington interrupted her again. “No, I’m not that either,” Washington said.
After Couric attempted to explain her question, Washington said: “No, don’t stop.
Speaking to Washington in 2004 during promotion for his political thriller The Manchurian Candidate, Couric asked the Oscar winner if he agreed with the claim that “Hollywood folks should stick to acting”. “I don’t know what Hollywood folks are, first of all,” Washington replied.
