Andrew Scott Walks Away from Interview After Inappropriate Questions
ICARO Media Group
Andrew Scott made headlines at the BAFTAs after stepping away from a red carpet interview with BBC News due to being asked inappropriate questions about fellow nominee Barry Keoghan. Scott, nominated alongside his co-star Paul Mescal for the movie "All of Us Strangers," was questioned about Keoghan's performance in "Saltburn" and specifically his naked dance scene. Despite Scott's discomfort and attempts to steer the conversation in a different direction, the veteran BBC entertainment correspondent, Colin Paterson, persisted with probing about the subject. This incident sparked criticism on social media towards Paterson's line of questioning. Furthermore, Oppenheimer was the big winner of the night, securing seven awards, but both "All of Us Strangers" and "Saltburn" were shut out. As of now, neither the BBC nor Scott has commented on the incident.
