10 Most Cringe-Worthy Celebrity Interviews

1. Meg Ryan vs. Parkinson

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blpq-Iwu25s This is it. The big one. The 2003 interview with Michael Parkinson that dumped a shedload of negative publicity on Meg Ryan, though it causes both of them come off terribly, making for quite possibly the most cringe-worthy moment in interview history. It doesn't exactly begin well, with Ryan providing brief answers to Parkinson's questions about her aversion to fame, while Parkinson comes across as outmoded and overly old-fashioned. The audience awkwardly laughs their way through several moments, and are stone-dead silent through others. It reaches its punishing apex when Parkinson asks what he should do now, and she says, "Just wrap it up". The two continued to revile each other after the interview, with Ryan suggesting that Parkinson was rude and acting like a "disapproving father". Can't argue with that, but Ryan did herself no favours, and amusingly, what has she even done since? Which interview makes you cringe the most? Let us know in the comments below.
