Montel Williams Is A Major League Prick


Yes, the Crabster has a Montel Williams story - oh, and it's a good one too. Seems Montel, the bald, male, low-rated Oprah, was in Savannah lately promoting some new program to give prescriptions to poor people (the Dirty Disher would love that) when some reporters with the Savannah Morning-News began a line of questioning he didn't like, causing him to angrily terminate the interview. Then, later, when the same reporters showed up on non-Montel-related business at the hotel where Montel was staying, Montel thought said reporters were there to follow up on the earlier exchange, and got all up in their faces. Here's the best part though - for whatever reason, Montel decided to focus the majority of his wrath at one particular intern, a high school student named Courtney Scott. Allegedly, Montel pointed his finger at Ms. Scott's face and threatened:

Don't look at me like that. Do you know who I am? I'm a big star, and I can look you up, find where you live and blow you up.

Yes, Montel Williams actually threatened to blow up a high-school-aged female intern. Because he's a big star and that's what big stars can do when people ask them questions they don't like. Except that the girl wasn't the one who asked the question, nor is she even a professional reporter. Ms. Scott was understandably left shaken by the whole thing, and said afterward:

I'm not sure if he meant "blow me up" and ruin my career or really blow us up, but it was threatening.

Montel has since apologized for losing his temper. He should do more than that though - he should send Ms. Scott some nice flowers and maybe some of that prescription medication, to help her with the lingering after-effects of having a big Louis Gossett, Jr.-looking fucker threaten her life. I mean honestly Montel - picking on a high school student? An unpaid intern? What, did the real reporters all look like Judo experts who might kick your ass if you provoked them? Real tough guy you are Montel. Maybe next time you could find a pre-schooler to slap around, or a toddler to scream obscenities at. Douchebag.
