John Mulaney’s odd ‘Late Night’ clip before rehab sparked worry | Page Six Celebrity News

Fears for comic John Mulaney’s sobriety and mental health began after he made a bizarre appearance on Seth Meyers’ show, wearing dark glasses and calling Prince Harry a “dumb ginger” and Meghan Markle a “silly goose.” In the “Late Night” clip, posted to YouTube on Nov. 24, Mulaney — who Page Six exclusively revealed has checked into rehab for cocaine and alcohol addiction — hosts a fake “Royal Watch: News from the Real-Life ‘Crown’” segment and jokes that Harry and Markle were annoyed by COVID because it took all the media attention away from their Megxit “stunt.” Mulaney — wearing a rumpled, oversize coat and sunglasses, both gifts from Julian Casablancas of the Strokes, who performed on the “Saturday Night Live” that Mulaney hosted in October — said Harry was “the real dunce of this fairy tale … You dumb ginger, don’t leave your title just because you don’t like your 94-year-old grandma.” “That’s the definition of something you wait out, gangsta. I am pretty sure Father Time is going to sort out the case of the very old bummer woman who had 30 months to live,” Mulaney said before adding, “Ahh, too mean.” After Meyers brings up the death of Princess Diana, Mulaney — who eventually took off his sunglasses to reveal dark, bleary eyes — said of Markle, “You know it’s weird, right, that Meghan and Harry left? “You thought rolling with those dorks in church clothes would be fun? Had you been told it was non-stop laughs? Because you’re thinking of ‘The Munsters,’ you silly goose.” The 38-year-old continued, “Just the fact that she wanted to leave the royal family because they were like ‘Be proper and sit still’ … So don’t marry into the family with the most jive-ass boring people ever and then be like, ‘Oh, shall we play Never Have I Ever?”’ Mulaney also adds of himself, “Indeed, I am simple and difficult,” before Meyers is forced to describe to him how Google News’ algorithm works. Mulaney adds, “The next ‘Royal Watch’ will be a little more focused … Thank you, Seth, and as a student reporter once wrote of me, ‘Thank you for the laughs, albeit virtual.'” After Page Six revealed that Mulaney had gone to a Pennsylvania rehab for 60 days, one viewer on Twitter said of the clip, “If you’ve watched @sethmeyers lately you had to know something was up.” Another wrote, “Three weeks ago I felt there was something seriously *off* with John Mulaney’s appearance on Seth Meyers.” Yet another commentator wrote, following the news of Mulaney’s stint in rehab, “He just seemed very off in this segment and I was very confused it was odd to watch and see him like that but it makes sense now, unfortunately.” A source told us that Mulaney was “out of his mind” on substances around the time the segment was recorded and it raised huge concerns about his health. Mulaney’s rep declined to comment. https://pagesix.com/2020/12/23/john-mulaneys-seth-meyers-clip-in-november-started-fans-worrying/ Page Six is your source for celebrity news, gossip, entertainment, pop culture, photos, video and more.
