Taylor Swift — David Letterman

David Letterman, known for his career filled with controversial interviews, particularly with female celebrities, created an awkward moment for America's sweetheart, Taylor Swift, in 2010. The discomfort began when he unexpectedly started sniffing her during the interview. While a compliment about her perfume would have been acceptable, Letterman chose an unusual route by commenting that she smelled "like expensive wood" and even provided a specific description of the type of wood.

This bizarre interaction left Taylor Swift and likely many viewers aback by the odd turn the interview had taken. It served as a reminder of how unexpected moments can arise in celebrity interviews, even when involving someone as beloved as Taylor Swift.
