Recently, I came across a tweet that asked people to name all the times celebrities "gagged" their interviewers (aka, all the moments celebs left their interviewers stunned, speechless, caught off guard, or corrected).
The replies and examples shared were tooooo good, so I thought I'd go through and round up some of my favorites for you. Here we go:
1.When Woody Allen asked Twiggy her views on "serious matters," like who her favorite philosopher was, and she turned the question back on him:
....and he simply could not name one:
2.When Jimmy Fallon "mistakenly" called RuPaul a drag queen...
...and RuPaul had Jimmy stand corrected:
3.When Eartha Kitt couldn't stop laughing after being asked if she'd compromise for a man:
4.When Lady Gaga shut down Anderson Cooper's anti-trans question on whether or not she has a penis:
5.Additionally, because she's no stranger to clapbacks, when an interviewer asked Lady Gaga if she thought sexual references would undermine her music, and she tore them to shreds in the most eloquent, yet sickening way possible:
She continued, "Cause they love sexual, strong women who speak their mind. You see if I was a guy, and I was sitting here with a cigarette in my hand, grabbing my crotch, and talking about I make music because I love fast cars and fucking girls, you'd call me a rockstar. But when I do it in my music and in my videos, because I'm a female, because I make pop music, you're judgemental, and you say that it is distracting. I'm just a rockstar."
6.When Katharine Hepburn, who famously wore pants at a time when women were primarily wearing skirts, snapped back at Barbara Walters when Walters asked if she ever wore a skirt in 1981:
7.When Dancing With The Stars judges critiqued Simone Biles' stage personality and host Tom Bergeron commented on how she wasn't smiling back to the judges, Simone hit them with this:
8.When an interviewer wouldn't stop asking about how Anne Hathaway fit into the Catwoman costume, and Anne replied with this perfect response:
9.When an interviewer asked Britney Spears if Justin Timberlake (her boyfriend at the time) was jealous to see her kissing her co-star in the movie Crossroads, and Britney schooled them:
10.This list would simply not be complete without including the time Ellen accused Dakota Johnson of not inviting her to her birthday party, and Dakota called her out with the iconic "Actually, no — that's not the truth, Ellen" line:
I had this as my Twitter bio for nearly three years.
Not to mention when Ellen doubled down, Dakota brought the RECEIPTS asking Ellen's producer (who was off-stage) to confirm that Ellen was, indeed, invited:
11.Also, when Ellen called Kim Kardashian's son's gold chain fake, and Kim delivered this reply:
12.When Joe Rogan said, "They all do the same move," while watching clips from RuPaul's Drag Race, and Miley Cyrus quickly responded, "That's what I think when I watch your shows, too. You know, all the same stuff."
She was so quick with it.
13.When Ariana Grande had to combat sexist interview questions from two male radio DJs:
She continued to have to prove to them that she could go "many hours" without using her phone, to which they said, "I don't believe it," and "Wow, she is a winner."
The interview only got worse when one of the hosts suggested the unicorn emoji was for "girls" (yes, this was a very 2015 interview; a new emoji update had just come out):
14.When Tom Hardy shut down a reporter with this line after they asked about his "ambiguous" sexuality:
15.When an interviewer asked Cher about her views on men...
...and then delivered this legendary line:
16.When a group of white people suggested Tupac's music promoted "cop killing" on a talk show panel in 1993, and he corrected them that his music talks about police brutality, not "cop killing" as the media liked to frame it:
17.And lastly, in the same interview, when Tupac asked, "What do you know about my people?" after a condescending white woman suggested his music was a bad influence on "his people."
