NBC Is Mad At Debra Messing After Her Megyn Kelly Comments
After the cast of Will & Grace appeared on Megyn Kelly’s new morning show to promote the show, Megyn repeated comments made by a viewer suggesting that Will & Grace turned him gay. Following the appearance, Debra said she regretted coming on the show and was disappointed by what Megyn said.
Now, according to Page Six, NBC told Debra to “cut it out.”
NBC insiders defended Megyn’s comments as “tongue-in-cheek.” One source said, “Debra was told to cut it out by someone high up in the NBC Entertainment division run by Bob Greenblatt, via her agent or publicist.”
A source close to Debra said: “NBC has been nothing but supportive of Debra . . . No one asked us to do anything.”
