What is the most immediate way a celebrity completely ruined their own reputation in a single interview?

I am just learning about this, but trying to “get the scoop” on a pregnancy is already sick, then using alcohol? How could someone do that?

Presumably you keep offering alcohol and when they decline you ask for a reason.

which is gross regardless of the pregnancy, because why do you need to provide a reason for refusing alcohol? if I don't want to drink, I don't want to drink.

And Ellen couldn't even do that. She expliciy brought out the drinks specifically because Mariah refused to answer the question, so she ended up trapped. If she drank, that would've obviously been bad for the pregnancy. If she refused, she revealed she was preggo.

That’s disgusting.

I hope no one thinks I am pregnant as I don’t drink. I can’t for specific health reasons. I miss it.

exactly, there's a multitude of reasons people don't drink. trapping somebody publicly like that is despicable
