Russell Crowe Gets Called Out by Giuliana Rancic as Most Awkward Interview Ever

Russell Crowe walks the carpet at the premiere of his new movie Noah on Thursday (March 20) at the Cinepolis Lagoon Theatre in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The 49-year-old actor was recently called out by E! News host Giuliana Rancic for being her most awkward interview ever.

“[He] was so mean to me,” Giuliana said on Watch What Happens Live. “I had been at E! for a year, and I literally was like, ‘I’m gonna go easy because he’s pretty tough.’ And so I said, ‘So are you excited to be here tonight, your big movie premiere?’ and he goes, ‘I’m contractually obligated to be here, what’s your next question?’”

Here’s how the interview continued: “I go, ‘Um, you know, isn’t this so wonderful seeing all the fans?’ And he goes, ‘That’s your second question? One, two, you’re through,’ and he walked away.”
