Bill Hader exposes ‘terrible’ celeb encounter

“The biggest f**k you”: The SNL star has named and shamed a celebrity over his truly bizarre behaviour during their encounter.

Bill Hader has the tea on Martin Kove.

Over 10 years before Martin kove, 78, bit his co-star Alicia Hannah-Kim at a fan convention this past weekend, Hader, 47, spoke about a bizarre encounter he had with the Cobra Kai actor on the WTF with Marc Maron podcast.

During the 2013 episode, Hader recalled that at age 20 his job was to drive actors to sets. One day, Hader was tasked with bringing Kove to a film shoot, reports the New York Post.

“I’m driving him around in my s***ty car, and he got me lost on purpose,” Hader claimed, adding that Kove “hadn’t read the script yet,” so he gave the Barry star the wrong directions.

Hader said that after they arrived late, he got “screamed at” by his boss.

“It was a terrible day,” Hader said of the moment, which only got worse.

“On the way back, we’re driving,” Hader recalled. “It’s at night, and we’re driving down the freeway. He was like, ‘Bill, are you mad at me?’”

The Karate Kid actor then allegedly forced Hader to stop at a McDonald’s and promised to get him a cookie and a milkshake.

“He comes back out eating the chocolate cookie and the milkshake,” the Saturday Night Live alum remembered. “And he just sits in the back and goes, ‘Come on, let’s go.’ It was the biggest f**k you.”

“It was a weird mind f**k of, like, ‘I’m gonna get you this thing,’ and then he ate it in front of me,” Hader added. “And then I just drove home in silence.”

Hader, who referred to the interaction as his “first ‘welcome to Hollywood, kid’ moment,” noted that he had to keep driving Kove to work for a few more days.

“And I didn’t talk to him after that,” Hader said. “I just kind of stared straight ahead.”

Despite Kove’s rudeness, Hader said he gave the martial artist a pass.

“I heard he was going through a divorce, or something was happening with him,” Hader noted. “He might be a really nice guy, but I just … rubbed him the wrong way. I don’t know what was going on.”

The Post has reached out to Kove’s rep for comment.

On Sunday, Kove was accused of biting Hannah-Kim, 37, in the arm at Washington State Summer Con.

The actress, who played Kim Da-Eun for seasons 5 and 6 of Cobra Kai, claimed the alleged attack happened when she tapped Kove on the shoulder to greet him at their cast booth, according to a police report obtained by People.

When he was questioned about the incident by police, Kove reportedly “admitted to biting” Hannah-Kim but claimed “he did it out of jest.”

“He thought he was being funny, and they play fight all the time on the set of Cobra Kai, and he did not think it was a big deal,” the report stated.

Hannah-Kim declined to press charges against Kove, who was reportedly escorted out of the fan convention.

Kove gave a full apology for the incident in a statement obtained by TMZ.

“I deeply regret and apologise for my actions regarding the incident with Alicia, a genuinely kind and wonderful person who didn’t deserve to be put in this position,” he stated.
