Gwen Stefani — Dua Lipa
Sometimes, stand-in hosts can make mistakes, as was evident when Dua Lipa filled in for Jimmy Kimmel to interview Gwen Stefani. In this instance, it became clear that Dua Lipa might not have researched enough before posing her questions. She found herself awkward when she asked Gwen about her husband, Blake Shelton, even though they weren’t married at the interview. Gwen sweetly corrected the mistake, and both artists shared an awkward laugh over the mix-up, highlighting the importance of accurate and up-to-date information when conducting celebrity interviews.
This humorous but somewhat cringe-worthy moment showcased the need for interviewers, even temporarily stepping into the host’s role, to be well informed to avoid awkward and potentially embarrassing situations during interviews with high-profile guests.
