10 Movie Stars Who Should Never Promote Anything (Ever)

6. Tracy Morgan

The actor and comedian Tracy Morgan was involved in a horrific car accident in June 2014, leaving him with traumatic brain damage, amongst several other nasty injuries. Fortunately, he seems to have made a near-complete recovery, but many know Morgan for a public and stage persona that mimics that of a giant four-year-old: no filters, all beaming innocence as he says whatever he likes, whenever he likes.

In a sense, it doesn'€™t really matter whether it€™'s a character he€™'s playing or whether he'€™s really like that: if you€™'ve ever seen him interviewed, you'€™ll probably have noticed - through the haze of non-sequiturs, weird imagery and flights of fancy - that he rarely gets around to talking about whatever he€™'s there to promote.

In many cases, if the interviewer didn€™'t bring it up, you€™d be forgiven for thinking he€™'d wandered in off the street.

Here€™'s hoping that he continues to derail talk shows and interview segments for years to come€ and that there'€™s a poster or a film set behind him so we know what on Earth he€™'s supposed to be talking about.
