The Posh Effect

16. Montel responded with this angrily with this comment:

"I'm trying to figure out exactly why you are here and what the interview is about. I'm here as a patient advocate talking about the fact that medications available today are saving people's lives, that's what's saving mine and after that, this interview is done."

17. chitty @14 -- thank you. That's ridiculous, I thought she asked him something of a personal nature like, why are you bald or do you really have MS? Her question was quite tame but quite thoughtful. I hope the police follow up on the report and charge him
with terroristic threats!

19. Imus loses his job for what he called those girls and he should have. Yet Montel who is a little tiny star as far as stars go will keep his show because he is Black and you will not see Al Sharpton or the Rev Jessie make a big deal out of what he did.

Montel Williams is now qualified to be a terrorist for what he said is to be consider an act of terrorism.

His show should be canceled and that wanna be star should be put behind bars for awhile.

Threatening a 17 year old two others with blowing up their homes is nothing but a pure form terrorism.

20. 1. Posh's head DOES look like the international symbol for an alien.
2. Will Smith DOES seem like a good guy. But his wife Jada DOES act like a bitch.
3. Montel DID marry a former stripper. Montel acts all high & mighty, yet he goes and marries lap dance hoochie mamas.
4. Brody Jenner is a no talent loser living off his famous last name.
5. The Osbourne's who cares !!!

22. All you Yanks alluding to Victoria being a snob don't know her at all and certainly don't get the British dry humour. She constantly pokes fun at herself and is a very funny, sweet caring person and loyal friend. (..and yes, I really do know her)

23. If you guys are going to comment on a story, make sure TMZ has told the ENTIRE story....not that I approve of what was said, but they did leave out a majority of the article....

From http://entertainment.tv.yahoo.com/entnews/ap/20071202/119660016000.html

Talk show host Montel Williams has apologized for an angry confrontation with reporters who said he threatened them.

Williams in Savannah to promote a program giving free prescriptions to low-income people became upset with a reporter's question Friday and terminated an interview.

When the Savannah Morning-News reporters later returned to the hotel for an unrelated assignment, he approached one of them high school student Courtney Scott, an intern at the newspaper.

"As we were preparing to film, Montel walked up with his bodyguard and got in Courtney Scott's face pointing his finger telling her 'Don't look at me like that. Do you know who I am? I'm a big star, and I can look you up, find where you live and blow you up,'" said Joseph Cosey, a Wweb content producer for the newspaper. "At this time he was randomly pointing at all of us."

Scott said she wasn't sure how to interpret Williams' comment.

"I'm not sure if he meant 'blow me up' and ruin my career or really blow us up, but it was threatening," Scott said.

Williams, a patient advocate since being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, later issued a statement apologizing for the outburst.

"I mistakenly thought the reporter and photographer in question were at the hotel to confront me about some earlier comments," Williams said. "I was wrong, and I apologize for my overreaction."

The earlier interview ended after Scott asked Williams: "Do you think pharmaceutical companies would be discouraged from research and development if their profits were restricted?"

According to the reporters, Williams reacted angrily, saying:

"I'm trying to figure out exactly why you are here and what the interview is about. I'm here as a patient advocate talking about the fact that medications available today are saving people's lives, that's what's saving mine and after that, this interview is done."

24. I could say something totally stupid but i'm not bcz I happen to respect Montel. It just goes to show that he's human too, no person is perfect. Oh well, this will pass over. As far as his comment, that is not a goog thing I agree.

25. As usual the uninformed jump on the band wagon against the stars without knowing the facts. That little news reporter needs to learn respect when probing into peoples lives.
Will Smith and his wife have given heavily to charitable causes. People should think before they write ignorant and inappropriate comments

26. Posh has probably had so much botox that she doesn't have the ability to smile. I noticed that when watching DWTS, too. All of the other Spice Girls were smiling and Posh just looked like a b*tch.

Peace and blessings!

28. Well, let's see:

1. Posh who? Not only is she ugly, but, she's a terrible performer. Even the UK has gotten sick of the Beckhams, they sent them to us here in the US....thanks Queen.

2. Montel Williams is an idiot. I tried watching his show,and he interrupts his guests and does all the talking. The only person who thinks he's a star is him and Syvia Brown (another real winner). She predicted that J-Lo would never have children; well!

3. Will Smith is fine...keep up the good work.

Over and Out
