American actress and talk show host Drew Blythe Barrymore is under fire after her PR team put her interview with Angela Deem back online on her talk show website and social media pages. Recently, fans of the talk show and the reality TV series 90 Day Fiancé expressed outrage over Angela Deem being featured and praised on The Drew Barrymore Show, as Deem has a history of abusive behavior. As a result, CBS has taken down and private some of the interview video clips while they review the situation and decide on their next steps.
A controversial and trashy individual like Angela Deem found success in the 90-Day Fiancé franchise despite the hate because, in the American reality TV world, the trashier, the better, and even bad publicity is good publicity. However, when it comes to a reputable TV and broadcasting network like CBS, featuring someone like Angela in one of their talk shows is risky and can damage their reputation, potentially angering thousands of viewers, which is exactly what happened.
In a video clip from the interview with Angela that resurfaced online, the reality TV star boasted about vandalizing her husband's car during her trip to Nigeria because she suspected him of cheating on her. The talk show hosts, Drew and Ross, awkwardly laughed and praised Angela for her actions. However, it seemed they had forgotten that Angela's behavior went beyond just destroying Michael's car. On the show, she was screaming and cursing at Michael, pushed him hard against the wall, and started hitting him on camera, and things could've been worse if the filming crew wasn't there to stop the fight.
