So, I understand you lions are hungry for some raw Michael Bay to feed on? Well, then, it’s feedin’ time. Yesterday, director Michael Bay was set to speak at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to promote the new Samsung 105-inch curved UHD television, but when he took to the stage and the teleprompter went out, the director lost his train of thought and ended up abruptly walking off the stage.
After the video had been posted on practically every site on the internet, Bay took to his blog to explain the incident:
Wow! I just embarrassed myself at CES – I was about to speak for Samsung for this awesome Curved 105-inch UHD TV. I rarely lend my name to any products, but this one is just stellar. I got so excited to talk, that I skipped over the Exec VP’s intro line and then the teleprompter got lost. Then the prompter went up and down – then I walked off. I guess live shows aren’t my thing. But I’m doing a special curved screen experience with Samsung and Transformers 4 footage that will be traveling around the world.
So here it is by popular demand…
And here’s Bay’s response to the whole thing:
