Man, you won’t believe what I stumbled upon the other day. So, I was deep in one of those internet rabbit holes, right? Just bouncing from one thing to another, and bam! I landed on this story about Harmony Korine and Meryl Streep. I’m like, what’s the deal with these two?

Turns out, this goes way back to the 90s. I started digging, piecing together bits from old interviews and stuff. The story goes like this: Harmony Korine, the director, was on David Letterman’s show. Classic, right? But here’s where it gets wild. Letterman apparently banned Korine from his show. Forever! Why? Get this, because Korine was caught messing around backstage.
I found this video of Letterman talking to James Franco about it, years later. He’s telling the story, and it’s just insane. He says he went upstairs to the green room to say hi to Meryl Streep. That’s when he found, Korine, going through Streep’s purse! Can you believe it? Just rifling through her stuff like it’s no big deal. I mean who does that?
- The Setup: Korine was on Letterman’s show.
- The Incident: Letterman found him going through Streep’s purse backstage.
- The Ban: Letterman banned him from the show after that.
Then there’s some talk, about Korine supposedly pushing Streep backstage. But who knows if that part’s true. It seems like the whole thing was chaotic, just a mess. I read that Korine was told to leave immediately. I guess he messed with the wrong actress!
Wrapping It Up
It’s crazy how these stories just live on, you know? One minute you’re on a talk show, the next you’re banned for messing with Meryl Streep’s purse. Wild. It got me thinking, though, about how many other crazy stories are out there, just waiting to be uncovered. This whole thing was a wild ride, start to finish. And let me tell you, the internet never fails to deliver these kinds of bizarre, unexpected stories.
