Sir Ian McKellen says Queen Elizabeth was "bloody rude"
Update: 2024-09-08
Description
Sir Ian McKellen didn't mince words in a recent interview, where he called Elizabeth "bloody rude" and shared some sharp takes on other members of the Royal Family. Despite having met the Queen multiple times and receiving honors from her, including a Companion of Honour in 2007, McKellen recalled a particularly awkward moment. He said
The Queen, I’m sure she was quite mad at the end. And on the few occasions I met her she was quite rude. When I received a medal for acting [the Companion of Honour in 2008], she said, ‘You’ve been doing this for an awfully long time.’ I said, ‘Well, not as long as you.’ I got a royal smile for that, but then she said, ‘Does anyone still actually go to the theatre?’ That’s bloody rude when you’re giving someone a medal for acting. It meant, ‘Does anyone care a (eff) about you because I don’t. Now off you go!’
