“Frasier” star Kelsey Grammer told the BBC that he is still a Trump supporter, which apparently caused the interview to end.
The 68-year-old actor originated the role of therapist Dr. Frasier Crane during his stint on “Cheers” from 1984 to 1993 and starred in the hit sitcom’s spinoff series “Frasier” for 11 seasons from 1993 to 2004. Almost 20 years later, Grammer reprised the role in the new Paramount+ show “Frasier,” which premiered in October.
BBC interviewer Justin Webb said, “You mentioned Roseanne early on, who had a great comeback, but also was a Trump supporter, you were, at least you were a Trump supporter, I’m fascinated to know if you still are?”
“I am, and that’s about all, let that be the end of it,” answered Grammer.
Webb informed listeners that Grammer was “perfectly happy” to discuss Trump, but the “Paramount+ PR people” were “less happy that he talked about it.”
“But I should stress that he [Grammer] was actually perfectly happy to talk about why he supports Donald Trump and still does in the coming election,” clarified Webb.
“I spent a good chunk of my lifetime grieving and possibly stopping myself from growing because of that,” said Grammer.
In a separate interview, Grammer emphasized his desire to prove that the character of Frasier still had engaging and humorous stories to tell.
When asked about the “Frasier” reboot, Grammer said, “I wanted to prove to myself and to other people, of course, that Frasier was still interesting and still watchable and still funny.”
“Those were important parts of it. But also, I thought there were more stories to tell about this character because there’s more stories to tell in our own lives,” added the actor.
