Did I offend Barbara Walters??

[JustinSosa]

I've been kicking myself over this....would anyone here please let me know if I really made a boob of myself??

The other night, I met Barbara Walters. She was doing a book signing and as I came up to her I said "Hi Barbara ....you're looking very well....so good to see you here!" I realized as I was saying it that it was a little odd to say. Instead...I meant to say "You're looking wonderful...lovely...nice tonight..." something like that. The phrase "looking well" is mostly used for someone who's ill or sick, no? I hoped she didn't think that but I watched the video of my meeting her and I think I can hear her say something like "You say that as if I"m sickly." or something like that. She defintely said "sickly."

I saw this a couple hours ago and felt terrible. And practically ruined my fond memory from that evening. Was my using the phrase "looking very well" used badly here?? Check the video to find out......

Hey,

I wouldn't lose sleep over it. That comment wasn't bad at all - I say it to celebs when I meet them at conventions and they take it as a great compliment! Maybe it's just her?

Don't let that ruin your memories of it! The only thing I said to Naomi Watts was 'I'm cold' and for a couple of weeks, I was metaphorically slamming my head against the wall! Now, I can laugh about it!

She didnt look offended or anything she looks like she had a smirk when she said it...

Either way it could be worse when Leann Rimes was just startin out singing I was like 11 and met her after a show cause I won a contest all I could say was "Hi my name is contest I won the Charlie" then fainted

Aww! I would have never lived that down had I have said that! LeAnn is one of my favourite singers of all time! {thumb2}
