NY Daily News Blind Item

Which highbrow talk show host telephoned a female massage therapist from the Pierre hotel last week and requested she perform intimate acts with his lady-friend, while he watched? Sadly, the answer was No.

  1. Could it be that Pat O'Brien didn't learn his lesson the first time!?! I guess you can't teach an old dog new tricks!

    lb - you consider Access Hollywood to be "highbrow"? Different tastes I guess.

    It's probably O'Reilly, not that I think O'Reilly is highbrow, but he thinks he is.

  5. Completely agree, Frenchie. Charlie was the first name that popped into my head. Plus, he looks like he'd be an absolute skeez behind closed doors.

  6. I think of Stephen Colbert as somewhat "highbrow," but I hope he's not a skeez like that. :P

  8. Ding, ding, ding. The best guess so far is Frenchie's - Charlie Rose, although James Lipton is a very close second. I think Bill Maher is whip-smart, but hardly highbrow. And POB is a total sleazebag.

  9. dnfrommn,

    Are there even any highbrow journalists left considering almost all of them covered the Anna Nicole Smith and Britney Spears debacles?!? I think over the last year or so the majority have lost the integrity of what journalists of the old days had. James Lipton interviews actors...not very highbrow. Charlie Rose does have some meaningful guests from time to time but also interviews many celebrities.

    I guess I just had the sick incident that involved Pat O'Brien a few years back still fresh on my mind and thought if the shoe fits....

  10. "Maher is whip-smart"
    Now that is funny (and probably true).
    Got to go clean latte off monitor.

  11. Charlie Rose. And thank God she said no. No one wants to see that ever.

  12. I'd like to add another name to my earlier guess(es) for #2 - Donnie Deutsch.

  13. I can't imagine James Lipton and sex in the same sentence.

    Maybe Dick Cavett? He always struck me as pervy.

  14. James Lipton's married, so maybe it's Charlie Rose...?

  15. moonmaid sez...

    I can't imagine James Lipton and sex in the same sentence.

    You don't have to imagine it -- you can read about it. Google "James Lipton" and "pimp" and learn about all the fun and games he had when living in Paris. The city, not the dumbass.
