But what are the unforgettable moments from late-night talk shows? What are the moments that we wish we could forget about but it’s unlikely that we ever will?
If you look back at Madonna’s interview with Johnny Carson you’ll see that they clearly seemed to have affection for each other. The moment was perhaps controversial because of the huge age difference as well as Madonna’s marriage to Sean Penn at the time.
But that was hardly the most controversial moment on a late-night talk show hosted by Johnny Carson. When the TV host interviewed actress Adrienne Barbeau, She made one statement when talking about her love life which we’d likely still find shocking today – or would we?
Dick Cavett had a reputation for interviewing challenging guests on his show and perhaps holds the record for some of the most controversial discussions on late-night talk shows and even daytime shows. Whether it was Enoch Powell or Marlon Brando, he wasn’t afraid to interview anyone willing to speak their mind – no matter how many people they upset.
By the way, do you remember Drew Barrymore’s appearance on Dave Letterman when it was his birthday? Do you remember the birthday present that she gave him that we can’t forget about – and that he certainly hasn’t forgotten about?
