David Letterman slammed after 'disgusting' video of him sucking a strand of Jennifer Aniston's hair resurfaces
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Jennifer Aniston's interview with David Letterman has resurfaced after more than 20 years as netizens are "disgusted" by his behavior. The 1998 'David Letterman Show' interview showed the host sidled up to the 'Friends' star and telling her, "I just want to try one thing" before he sucked her hair strands.
The then 29-year-old actress appeared uncomfortable and tried moving away her face from the then 51-year-old actor who went on keeping a lock of her hair in his mouth and held her head to his with his hand. Aniston could be seen holding out her hands to stop Letterman and after he moved back to his chair, he gave her a tissue to dry off her locks that he placed in his mouth. A drum roll sound played in the background suggested that the act was planned by the comedian.
