Robert Downey Jr. Leaves Interview Midway After Journalist Kept Asking Personal Questions

The life of celebrities is always under the spotlight- be it for their work, what they said, what they wore, or whom they’re with. Sometimes, though, journalists can really go overboard with deviating from their professional life, and jumping into their personal affairs.

British Channel 4 journalist Krishnan Guru-Murthy was interviewing none other than Iron Man, a.k.a. Robert Downey Jr. during the press day of his latest film, Avengers: Age of Ultron. Initially the interview went as it should, with both talking enthusiastically about the film. However, things took a sour turn when Guru-Murthy started asking him personal questions related to his past, which included his drug phase, his strained relationship with his father, and his dark history in general. Needless to say, the actor became visibly angry, and when the questions got out of hand, he simply walked off.

Why be sensitive when you can be sensational, right?
