John Stamos Admits to Being Drunk on TV
John Stamos admits to being drunk during an interview on the Australian talk show “Mornings with Kerri-Anne” in 2007.
The ER star, who gyrated with a studio prop, ridiculed Kerri-Anne’s dress, and appeared bewildered on the 2007 episode, blamed his behavior on a combination of jet lag, sleeping pills, and booze.
“When I went on that morning show, I was drunk,” the star said of his 2007 appearance on the Australian talk show “Mornings With Kerri-Anne,” during which he attacked a Daily Telegraph reporter, according to The Advocate. “Yes, I was on sleeping pills and I was jet-lagged, but I was also just plastered. And I never said I wasn’t, but that whole Warner Bros. publicity machine got involved and said, ‘Just say he was jet-lagged.’ I said, ‘No, tell ’em the truth! I was f***ing drunk in Australia. Big deal.'”
Stamos also addressed reality television, stating that he will not be appearing on shows like Dancing with the Stars in the near future.
“Not to be disrespectful, but isn’t that the place you go when you don’t have a career,” Stamos, who is now performing in a New York production of Bye Bye Birdie, asked.

“Why would I dance on that show when I get to dance on Broadway?”
John, who is currently performing in Broadway’s “Bye Bye Birdie,” also talked about how he maintains his youthful appearance.
“It’s funny, because I haven’t had one ounce of Botox or any of that,” he said. “I finally got gray hairs in the past couple years, and I wore it on ‘ER,’ but they made me cover it up in this show. I don’t want to be one of those weird-looking guys who gets old but stays looking young.”
He quipped that the gorgeous guys, like Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman, who star in “A Steady Rain,” had a club, when asked about his fellow Hollywood-turned-Broadway stars.
“Some woman asked me the other day, ‘Is there a place where all you heartthrobs hang out?’ I said, ‘Yes, it’s called the Hollywood Heartthrob Club. We just sit around and talk about how hot we are.’ There is a great bar, Bar Centrale, where everybody goes after their shows, so it’s a good place to see your fellow actors.”
