“MeToo hysterical like French Revolution” declares William Shatner, defending ‘Baby It's Cold Outside’ from censors - sez he can’t compliment women’s 'great legs'
2018-12-19
[DailyMail] William Shatner said that although the MeToo movement is 'great' he believes that it has become too extreme and likened it to the French Revolution

The 87-year-old said: 'I've got three daughters [aged 60, 57, and 54] and I'm glad that they have more opportunity. At the same time, it's become hysterical'

The Star Trek legend sat down with DailyMailTV for an exclusive interview as he promotes his own Christmas album Shatner Claus
Gonna' put his latest album next to this one!:


Shatner also doubled down on his support of the Christmas classic Baby It's Cold Outside after a station in his native Canada took it off the air due to controversy

The actor defended the song, saying he enjoying riling up people and 'the kick of getting somebody upset about something and playing with them verbally'

Shatner revealed he has had to rethink his compliments to women after recently taking a three-hour training course on sexual harassment in the workplace

Shatner said: 'It's all about what is harassment. You might say, as I have on numerous occasions, ''looking good'', ''wow, what a great dress'', ''great legs'''

But, he added: 'I've changed my behavior to quite a degree... because it's a revolution'
