Last night, Dave Letterman confessed to his studio audience that he was the victim of an extortion plot that would expose him for sleeping with his employees….but I’m assuming the audience didn’t get how “REAL” the story was as they found the story incredibly funny.
According to Letterman, three weeks ago he found a package in his backseat that contained a letter that said “I know that you do some terrible terrible things. And I can prove that you do those terrible things“. Dave went on to say that in the package was proof that this guy knew about the “terrible” things he has done and he threatened to write a screenplay unless Dave gave him some money ($2million to be exact). Dave contacted his lawyers and the Special Prosecution Bureau who investigated the case and cut a phony $2 million check to the alleged extortionist who was later arrested.
What I found strange was that Dave then revealed to his audience the “creepy” things that the guy planned to expose and the audience continued to laugh. If you don't wanna watch, read after the jump
"The creepy stuff was that I had sex with women that have worked for me on this show. Now my response to that is “Yes I have. I have had sex with woman that worked for me on this show”. Would it have been embarrassing if it were made public. Yes it would…. Especially for the women. That’s the decision that they would have to make if they want to come public and talk about the relationships. If I want to go public and talk about the relationships but what you don’t want is a guy saying “I know he had sex with women but I would like 2 million dollars or I’m going to make trouble for you“.
It’s been a very bizarre experience. I feel like I need to protect these people. I need to certainly protect my family. I need to protect myself. I hope to protect my job and the friends and everyone that’s been very supportive through this."
