Alex Jones Recalls Uncomfortable ‘The One Show’ Interview with Jared Leto
Television presenter Alex Jones has revealed the name of a celebrity guest on BBC’s The One Show who she found “full of himself” during a 2022 appearance. The host reflected on her interactions with famous figures during an interview, discussing her time presenting the popular BBC programme alongside former co-host Jermaine Jenas.
Alex Jones’s Podcast Revelation
During a conversation on the Netmums podcast, Alex Jones discussed the wide range of celebrity guests who have sat on the show’s set. She explained, “We’ve had individuals on the show who are major Hollywood stars. I recall last week we interviewed Robert De Niro, who was lovely, particularly after the cameras stopped rolling.” The Welsh presenter then shared a less positive encounter with Suicide Squad actor Jared Leto, who joined the programme remotely from Las Vegas.
Jared Leto’s On-Screen Demeanor
Alex Jones recounted, “He appeared on screen dressed somewhat like one of the Three Musketeers, sporting this, I don’t know, Gucci, oversized shirt with dramatically billowing sleeves. He just seemed incredibly self-absorbed.”
She continued, “And I immediately thought, ‘No, no, no, no.’ Our audience members are genuine people, and they deserve better than that kind of attitude.”
The presenter further elaborated on her reaction to the actor’s demeanor, stating, “You might be a massive celebrity and have an extensive filmography, but common courtesy doesn’t cost anything.”
“Anyone who can’t bring those basic manners to the table, I lose patience with. I think, no, sorry, you clearly weren’t raised with proper values,” the presenter added, referencing the actor.
Viewer Reactions to Leto’s Interview
Viewers also expressed their disapproval of the interview with Jared Leto, taking to social media platforms to voice complaints and stating they were “not impressed” with his behaviour.
As Jared Leto discussed his AppleTV+ show, WeCrashed, many viewers were distracted by the star’s ornate blouse and overall manner throughout the interview segment.
One viewer expressed confusion, writing, “I’m genuinely unsure if Jared Leto was attempting to insult Alex or flirt with her,” while another commented, “I remain astonished by how bored Jared Leto looked on #TheOneShow.”
Another viewer echoed this sentiment, stating: “Jared Leto was clearly unimpressed with their light-hearted banter regarding his frilly shirt and white nail polish #TheOneShow.”
