Brigette actually checked into rehab for drug and alcohol abuse. Joan wasn't wrong

[@evernit]

Nielsen admitted in the past being an alcoholic, not a drug addict as alleged by Rivers. So while one of the two took the words literally, the other failed otherwise.

[@sitcomsTV]

@@evernit What a bull shit! I mean... Alcohol is a drug. So to be in your high worse stating on national TV you NEVER did drugs... is bull shit. Is denying the truth hanging on semantic.

I love how Joan took no BS from her from the very second Brigette brought up about being mean to her 20 years back and just ripped into her. And then told her to get off the show and when Brigette mentioned drugs, Joan tore into her again. The whole thing is amazing. Especially when Joan laughs at “This is great!” and “You want me to get off your show?” “No, not really coz this is great television!“ 😂😂😂

No, Joan was a salty bitch then and doubled down this time too. She dead though.

How pompous it is when you are an Denmark native and start talking in Danish to look like you are better than the person next to you? Brigitte just didn't get it. She wasn't being attacked. She never was. She was the attacker.

[@filipzawistowski7049]

@@jgn1989 Thought so

[@andree948]

Brigitte made a point about Joan‘s arrogance of belittling her husband for not fluently speaking english and talking to him like a little kid. Brigitte fluently speaks Danish, English, German& Italian and she also has an understanding of French. Her husband and her met in Switzerland so chances are they were probably able to talk at least in one of those. Joan was making fun of both Nielsen & her husband‘s comprehension skills and smartness, partially at least because they were no native English speakers. Saying something in German was her way of saying „see how that feels?“

[@Big-guy1981]

​@@andree948 You do understand it was all staged, right?

[@sitcomsTV]

OMG! Brigitte was totally off. You have to admire Joan she didn't let herself be run over but she had the humility to try again. As a professional and a person she tried. Communication was just off. Brigitte is too in the defensive and to be honest doesn't seem to understand comedy or basic joke. It's even sad, really. Such a big woman doesn't include in the package big brains. The queen of humor interviews a lemon! Ahah

You think wrong. Its Joan she is known to be so open and honest and go for everything. If you want to hide stuff don't show up. More people should be like her. We need this in society. Not hypocrites. There's already too much of those every were: TV, celebrity, politics.... The interview started to go wrong as soon as Brigite walked in. The way she went for it, talking over Joan. Specially when she prased Joan but then can't handle a single thing about her. Also... showing that she holds a 25 years old grunge on Joan. She went to a well known strait shooter comedy talk show but was not open to any of it. What a disappointing she turn out to be. I don't envy her brains! Lack of humor. Lack of understanding. And the way she went for the "husband" as if he was a puppy to play with... lol. I feel sorry for her. She must be not well adjusted every were she goes. And her marriage lasted what... less than a year?

[@ebbhead20]

Joan is cool, but this whole so called interview should not be done by her. Theres too much shouting and attacking, and that's not what Birgitte would be used to. She was a highly paid global model that spoke 5 languages as most Danes tend to. Also a host can never try and outshine the guest and thats just not what she would get in Europe at all. I mean she was a woman with loads of marriages behind her, first she was with Kasper Winding one of the biggest music guys of Denmark in the 80s. He even did theme songs to tv shows. Had the biggest song of the 80s. And she had several hits in the 80s. Everybody needs a Body was one, later she did Body Next to Body with Falco, that was a hit too in 87 i think. She was basically the danish Sam Fox at rhe time. Glamour model tuened Popstar. And the drug thing was weird as she was known for loving the wine too much but i feel mixing it up with sleeping pills , or pick me ups and so on. She didnt have a rep for doing coke and all that. I think she was more like Anna Nichole Smith where her daily stuff just took overhand. But she also had her own talkshow and it was done more low key as the American style has never worked in Denmark. Irs too loud and seems too joke based. Thats why Letterman. Leno.Fallon and DeGeneres didnt really work and all ended up around 5 in the morning before being pulled off. US talk shows seems to be the worst thing any DK tv Station can put on according to themselves. They have the worst viewing figures of anything broadcast. Letterman got 4 years maybe almost 5 and thats the longest of any talkshow from the states. I used to watch Letterman and Leno when they where around 23.00 but not when they started to put them at 4-5 in the morning. But Birgitte was on talk shows all over Europe back in the day, UK will never forget when she did Fantasy Football League with Skinner and Baddiel. She was wasted, couldn't even remember what a Snegl was called. A danish pastry that ended up with a weird name she just came up with on the spot. But shes very nervous when she does talkshows in other countries as she gets weird about it. Dont know why, as shes been bumming around the world since early 80s and should be used to it by the 90s. But she never seemed confident on cam really. Which is dead weird. I mean she made music vids and films all over the place. Red Sonja btw was fun. I think Stallone saw that and wanted to meet her.
