BBC Says It Was Shut Down By Paramount PRs When Questioning Kelsey Grammer On His Support For Donald Trump

deadline.com:

Kelsey Grammer sounded curt this morning when he brusquely told a BBC Today program interviewer that he still supports Donald Trump but, according to his interviewer, this curtness doesn’t tell the full story.

Grammer’s interviewer Justin Webb said the Frasier star was “perfectly happy” to go on talking about his support for the former POTUS, “the Paramount+ PR team, less so.” Grammer has previously expressed support for Trump – a relatively rare position for a TV and movie star to take – and he also used his BBC interview to back Roseanne Barr, another self-confessed Trump supporter.

Towards the end of the interview, Webb asks Grammer: “You mentioned Roseanne early on who had a great comeback but also was a Trump supporter.

You were, at least you were, a Trump supporter, I’m fascinated to know if you still are?” Grammer responded: “I am, and I’ll let that be the end of it.” But in the studio afterwards Webb made his remarks about Grammer being “perfectly happy” before the Paramount PR intervention.
