>> Stephen: YOU SOO BEEN IN THE NEWS, YOU WERE ON A NEWS
SHOW THIS MORNING, ON GMA, A LOT LATELY BHU YOU ACTUALLY APPEARED
ON THIS ONE.
AND I WILL LET GET TO THE HEAT OF THE MEAT RIGHT HERE.
YOU SAID ON GMA THIS MORNING I'M DONE WITH IT, IT GETS NO MORE
ENERGY FOR ME, THAT IS WHY I SAID FOR THE LAST TIME I'M
ADDRESSING IT, THERE IS NO MORE KRVETION FOR T I AM OVER IT, I'M
OVER THE MOMENT, I SAID EVERYTHING I CAN POSSIBLY SAY,
I'M OVER IT.
YOU WILL NOT HEAR ME SAY ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT IT.
>> YEAH, THERE YOU GO, THAT WAS ME, I SAID THAT I SAID THAT.
AND ARE YOU GOING TO ASK SOMETHING.
>> Stephen: ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO SAY ABOUT IT?
>> I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE LEFT TO SAY.
>> Stephen: I WANT TO ASK YOU, YOU HAVE TALKED TO PEOPLE,
BASICALLY YOU'VE DONE INTERVIEWS ALL DAY.
>> ALL DAY.
>> Stephen: AND YOU GAVE POLITE VARIATIONS OF THIS
ANSWER.
>> I SAID THE SAME THING TO EVERYBODY.
>> Stephen: I'M NOT GOING TO DOWN THAT.
>> YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT, CAN GO [BLEEP] YOU WHAT WANT.
>> Stephen: I'M IF THE GOING TO READ THIS, I WILL YOU IS
THERE ANYWAY YOU WOULD HANDLED THIS YOU WOULD GO BACK AND
CHANGE IF YOU HAD A TIME MACHINE.
>> NO, I WOULDN'T.
>> Stephen: REALLY?
>> NO.
>> Stephen: CUZ YOU DIDN'T A APPROXIMATELY GIEZ AT FIRST AND
THEN YOU LATER APOLOGIZED.
>> I, RIGHT NOW, THIS IS ME, I'M OVER IT I'M JUST OVER IT.
IT IS AN ONION IT IS AN ONION, SO NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU
KEEP PEELING IT, IT IS JUST ENDLESS.
IF YOU KEEP PEELING IT, IT JUST DOESN'T STOP.
THERE IS NO END TO IT. LIKE I APOLOGIZED.
APOLOGIZED AGAIN.
I SAID I APOLOGIZED BEFORE.
I APOLOGIZED AFTER THAT APOLOGY.
IT KEEPS GOING AND EVERY HEADLINE IS YOU APOLOGIZED.
HE APOLOGIZED GENL, HE JUST A POLL GOOZ-- APOLOGIZED.
I'M DONE, I DID IT I AM I'M OVER IT.
THERE IS NO MORE I CAN DO I'VE DONE IT.
>> Stephen: WELL THARK REACTION TO THE AUDIENCE WAS
INTERESTING BECAUSE I HAVE DONE THIS KIND OF A JOB FOR ABOUT 14
YEARS.
HAVE I SAID A LOT OF THINGS OVER THE YEAR, THAT UPSET VARIOUS
PEOPLE.
>> YOU ARE HUMAN.
>> Stephen: YEAH, YEAH AND PROBABLY NOT A REALLY NICE ONE.
BUT AND I FOUND THAT IT IS NOT OVER UNTIL THE AUDIENCE IS OVER
T NOT WHEN I AM OVER IT.
SO YOU DO YOU HAVE A SENSE THE AUDIENCE IS OVER IT.
>> HERE IS THE DIFFERENCE.
YOU CAN CONTINUE TO LIVE TO PLEASE OTHERS OR YOU CAN HAVE A
POSITION WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU LITTLE RALLY HAVE DONE WHAT YOU
CAN TO TRY TO PLEASE.
AT THAT MOMENT WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN YOUR ALL TO
TRY TO PLEASE AND IT'S STILL NOT RECEIVED, YOU HAVE TO MAKE A
DECISION TO GO I'M DONE TRYING TO PLEASE.
THAT'S WHERE I AM AT.
>> THAT IS DIFFICULT FOR AN ENTERTAINER BECAUSE PART OF THE
JOB IS TO PLEASE.
>> NOT REALLY.
>> REALLY?
>> DEPENDS UPON THE LEVEL OF ENTERTAINER YOU ARE.
MY JOB IS ME PUTTING MYSELF OUT THERE 24/7, I AM REAL ESTATE
AUTHENTIC, I'M HONEST.
I GIVE YOU ALL OF ME THERE IS NO VERSION OF ME THAT IS FAKE.
THE BONUS OF DOING THAT IS THAT WHEN THINGS LIKE THAT HAPPEN,
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO UNDERSTAND AND KNOW THAT I'M SO TRUE TO ME
THAT THERE IS NO BS, SO WHEN I GO ALL RIGHT,IO, I REMEMBER
THIS, I SAID SORRY FOR THAT BACK THEN BUT GUESS WHAT, I WILL DO
IT AGAIN, ALL RIGHT, I GET IT T HERE IS ANOTHER ONE, OKAY, ALL
RIGHT, OKAY.
Y'ALL WANT ANOTHER ONE, HERE GOES ANOTHER ONE, TAND IS STILL
NOT, I'M GOING WELL THAT'S NOT, I'M NOW K3R50EU78S COMPROMISING
MYSELF.
AT SOME POINT YOU JUST HAVE TO BE OKAY WITH YOU.
I'M OKAY WITH ME IN ALL DECISIONS THAT I MADE IN MY
LIFE.
THIS IS THE DECISION I MADE TODAY, I'M OVER IT I'M DONE.
THAT'S IT.
>> Stephen: ALL RIGHT.
>> THAT'S IT.
>> Stephen: THEY UNDERSTAND.
THEY SEEM TO GET IT.
>> Stephen: ALL RIGHT, I WAS CURIOUS WHAT YOU WOULD BE LIKE
AS AN OSCAR HOST THOUGH.
>> I WAS GOING TO BE GOOD.
HI SOME STUFF, HI SOME HEAT.
>> Stephen: YOU ALWAYS HAVE HEATNESS NO, I HAD SOME HEAT,
REAL GOOD JOKES.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
>> I WILL GIVE YOU A COUPLE OF THEM, I WAS GOING TO START IT
OFF T GOES HAND-IN-HAND WITH WHAT IS GOING ON NOW, WE ARE SO
SENSITIVE AND THE WHOLE REASON I WAS GOING HOST THE OSCARS WAS TO
TAKE THE TENSION OUT OF THE ROOM.
PEOPLE GO TO THE OSCARS BUT THEY'RE NOT THERE TO LAUGH
BECAUSE EVERYBODY IS WAITING FOR THEIR MOMENT.
>> Stephen: TERRIBLE AUDIENCE.
>> EVERYBODY IS UPTIGHT.
>> Stephen: THANKLESS JOB.
>> NOBODY CAN BREATHE OR MOVE, THE CLOTHES ARE FITTED TO
PERFECTION, EVERYBODY AS NECK IS AS STRAIGHT A AS THEY CAN BE AND
THE ONLY THING THEY KNOW TO DO IS THIS WHEN THE CAMERA COMES.
SO I WAS GOING TO SAY RELAX, RELAX, ONE THING YOU DON'T WANT
TO BECOME IS A MEME.
YOU DON'T WANT TO BE A MEMEZ IS THAT WHAT THESE ARE.
>> A MEM LeEND YOUR CAREER.
I WAS GOING SHOW PREVIOUS MEMES SO DO YOU HAVE THEM?
>> Stephen: WHAT ORDER DO THEY GO IN.
>> SHOW THAT ONE FIRST, DOESN'T MATTER, THIS IS MY GOOD FRIEND
NICOLE KIDMAN, THIS ALMOST ENDED NICOLE, SEE THIS RIGHT HERE
WELL, THEY IT WAS THE MIDDLE OF THE CLAP AND THEY THOUGHT SHE
HAD BOOM A RANG FOR HANDS RIGHT THERE, YOU HAVE TO RELAX, IT
WOULDN'T HAPPEN IF IT WAS A RELAXED MOMENT.
I WILL SHOI ANOTHER ONE, LOOK AT THIS ONE HERE, YEP, THEY GOT
MERL GOOD.
LOOK AT THIS RIGHT HERE.
I THINK MERYL BOOED SOMEBODY, SHE BOO'D SOMEBODY AT THE OSCARS
AND IT BECAME A MEME.
THIS WAS MY FAVORITE, DENZEL ON A BAD DAY.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE PICTURE, HE DID.
>> Stephen: IS HE DID NOT WEAR THAT TO THE OSCARS.
>> THAT IS THE OSCARS, YEAH, IT WAS.
>> Stephen: THAT IS NOT EVEN DENZEL WASHINGTON, THAT WAS SOME
GUY ASKING FOR CHANGE BEHIND A WIN DIXIE THAT IS NOT DENZEL
