I am not a fan of his, however what he wants makes sense. He is basically letting his bosses know he is willing within logical parameters that make sense for him and the show. I don’t think it is an ego thing so much as good thinking...
Uh oh, I am going to get blasted for this one... :)
I get what you are saying. He’s not willing to let monkeys poop on his shoulder, do interviews about the Spring fashion line, taste test another disgusting dish in a cooking segment....
Then he needs to stay the hell off morning TV. Because after the first 20 minutes of headlines, you get the usual dose of why your worthless Husband won’t do the dishes.
You’re right though. No matter who it is.
