A Connecticut college has warned students interning for late-night, skirt-chasing TV funnyman David Letterman to stay at arm's length from the host.
A rep from Quinnipiac University told the celebrity Web site TMZ that "due to recent circumstances we will have a discussion with those in charge of placing our interns at the David Letterman show in the future."
In the statement, the school added, "We will diligently oversee this internship program to ensure that our interns are out of harm's way."
Great harm. Unimaginable harm.
The "Late Show" host recently revealed that he had allegedly been the target of a $2 million blackmail plot after CBS News producer Robert "Joe" Halderman, 57, accused the comedian of carrying on a sexual relationship with his former gal-pal Stephanie Birkitt, according to authorities.
Letterman admitted that he did have a relationsip with Birkitt, 34, who worked for the show as an intern and was promoted to be his personal assistant and appear in on-air bits, along with other female staffers who are of legal age.
The Post reported on Oct. 4 that the normal male's randy comic's Midtown office has all the trimmings for a predator bachelor on the prowl, including a fold-out couch and a kitchen.
Which are inexplicable because he never works late at night.
Located in the cavernous Ed Sullivan Theater, Letterman's office comes with a reception area as well. |
