Actor Liam Neeson reflected on his recent appearance on âThe View,â saying he was not âimpressed.â
During an interview with Rolling Stone, Marlow Stern said to Neeson, âI did watch your recent appearance on âThe View,â which seemed totally chaotic through no fault of your own.â
Neeson replied, âI was in the dressing room drinking a cup of tea, turned the TV up, and I thought, oh, this will be great. Theyâre talking about gun violence in America, and I agree that itâs an American problem. I go onstage and join the ladies during the break, and I was congratulating them on this discussion.â
Neeson continued, âAnd then our segment starts and itâs just all this BS with Joy and Liam Neeson and having a crush, and Iâve known Whoopi for years and Joy a little bit, but I just wasnât impressed. Iâm uncomfortable in those situations, you know?â
He told Rolling Stone, âOne of the ladies is a prosecutor and we had a little chat afterward and it was a good, intelligent conversation, but then the segmentâs all about this â oof âthirteen, fourteen-year-old crush. Itâs just a bit embarrassing.â
During his appearance on the show on Feb. 15, one of the co-hosts said, âJoy wants to get taken by you.â
Later in the show, Behar said, âI got this Valentine from you today. It says, âHappy belated Valentineâs Day â Liam ⊠I was like âohhhh,â and then I find out you gave it to all of us.â
The co-hosts went on laughing and asked Neeson to add more hearts to their cards.
In case you missed it:
The show went on to show previous moments during which Behar gushed over the actor.
Neeson spoke with Rolling Stone for his new film titled, âMarlowe.â
He was also asked about Hollywood as a whole.
âYeah, I live away from it. But I lived in LA for three and a half years. Weâve all heard the stories of Hollywood in the â30s and â40s â heads of studios, tales of actors like Elizabeth Taylor and Mickey Rooney being fed drugs so they can be âpeppyâ and ready for the next dayâs work. The casting couch, of course. Weâve all heard those stories,â Neeson said.
He continued, âI never got involved in that. To me, it was just always a business. There were executives that I met at these pre-screening parties, and we had nothing in common. Not all of them. But the whole business aspect of it I just leave to my agents.â
