Ruby Wax is an American-born comedian who, at 70, has long been a fixture on the BBC as a host of several programs. And while she’s not widely known outside the UK, she got tossed off the plane of then-billionaire real estate developer Trump in the 1990s after she laughed at him when he said he wanted to be president.
Wax recalled the story during an appearance on Kate Garraway’s ITV chat program.
The BBC fixture said that during pre-interview meals, which were a must with her, the interviewee would mention “really personal things” to her that she would later not bring up during the formal interview.
But that isn’t quite the way things worked out with Trump, according to Wax.
