Awareinva | Friday, January 11, 2002 - 06:43 am   OMG- who saw the Early show this morning??? Brandon is a trip. Bryant was commenting on the funds raised for the Aids foundation by the ebay auction and commented that he understood Bradon had gotten some money for his charity. Brandon said yes that he had gotten $2000 from a star off of "That's Life" (I think) for the thong he was wearing at the reunion show. He said they went into the bathroom and traded thongs over the stall, and they were smoking. Got busted by the security guard- not for being in the ladies room but for smoking. Bryant goes- you're joking right? Brandon's like no true story!! Then when they were all talking about offers they were getting etc. Brandon says the only people calling him is gay porn. Bryant says and I guess you won't be calling them- Brandon says "If no one else calls, I guess I will be calling them back!!!" LOL This guy really is a trip! |
Urgrace | Friday, January 11, 2002 - 07:16 am   After Mark B and Jeff Probst came out to present Ethan with his check, they were all standing there with Bryant Gumbel. Bryant started to sign off the end of the show and Mark offered his hand for a shake. Bryant offered his hand back then limp wristed an almost brush off handshake! I am shocked at that man! It was a very snobbish looking jesture! (JMO) David Letterman has never been a Survivor supporter, but he is a comedian with his own show and can get away with his act because he does some of it for laughs. Personally, I don't like the way he treats the survivors. Last night's show looked like he had just had his arm twisted, and his face grimaced throughout the survivor segments. Gumbel is not a comedian, and I assumed he got his job with CBS because he could interview all sorts of people without outward prejudice, but apparently someone was wrong about that. Wasn't he supposed to 'retire' real soon? Do these guys think they are above real people and just don't want to waste their time interviewing anybody for personal reasons? Seems pretty unprofessional to me. |
Sammmy | Friday, January 11, 2002 - 03:16 pm   I love Letterman. Love him. Love him. Love him. HATE the way he treats Survivors!! That's why Oprah won't call him. LOL. |
Car54 | Friday, January 11, 2002 - 03:34 pm   I love Dave too, but this is not his best thing. I don't think he has much choice about having them on. I have some respect for Frank for not going on. Pretty embarrassing to be on a show where last year they would only let you in the side door, and this year they won't let you in the building. I think Dave has made his point. I wonder if Ethan will be on. I bet Dave will be nice to him. He likes "real" people, and Ethan is very unassuming, and I don't think he will be so into self-promotion as some of the other players. I think it kind of shows how desperate CBS is to have the players in the media. I feel the same way about Bryant Gumbel. He is a pro, and does an OK job, but it would be a much better show with someone who is enthusiastic and really likes being there. On the Early Show he was always pretty dis-interested in the whole thing. I think he is their big headline guy, so he gets the gig, but I think even Kilborne would be more fun to watch as the host. |
