Famous Australian comedian and TV presenter Peter Helliar named the worst guest he had to interview in his entire career. He talked about this in a podcast, the recording of which is available on the online platform.

According to Helliar's memoirs, the most difficult guest turned out to be the popular American actor Mark Wahlberg. The TV presenter noted that he had conducted interviews with him several times, and they went well, but one day the actor suddenly began to behave terribly.

"I think he was either hungover, or tired, or he just wasn't interested in principle. He was holding the phone in front of him the whole time," Helliar recalled, noting that Wahlberg's partner in the interview, actor Will Ferrell, was ashamed of his colleague and tried to take a more active part in the conversation.

Earlier, British TV presenter Lorraine Kelly named the worst interview guest in her 40-year career in journalism. According to the memoirs of the TV presenter, one of the most difficult guests she has ever had to interview was singer Lady Gaga.
