Samuel L. Jackson confused for Laurence Fishburne during awkward interview
“WE’RE not all the same” screamed Samuel L. Jackson when he was awkwardly confused for another African American actor during a live TV interview.
WELL this is awkward.
Samuel L. Jackson was being interviewed on KTLA TV in the US this morning when the entertainment reporter, Sam Rubin, confused the movie star for fellow actor Laurence Fishburne.
Jackson was doing the interview to promote his latest film RoboCop, but he was confused when he was asked by the interviewer about his appearance in a recent Super Bowl ad.
Slight problem, Jackson didn’t do a Super Bowl ad, Fishburne did.
What followed was one of the more cringe-worthy interviews ever.
And in case you missed it, here’s the commercial starring Fishburne, not Jackson.
