The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco recently opened up about a shocking and surreal experience involving a stranger entering her hotel room while she was in a vulnerable state. During an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Cuoco recounted the unsettling event that occurred just hours before a scheduled interview.
“I think, ‘OK, I’m gonna start drying my hair a little bit,’” Cuoco began, setting the scene. “Butt naked in my bathroom, in my shower, in my hotel room. So, I’m really dramatically blow-drying my hair – it felt like I was in a commercial.”
Then, the unexpected happened. “I look up. In the mirror, I see a man in my room,” she revealed.
Host Seth Meyers, visibly taken aback, asked for clarification. Cuoco suggested the man might have been a hotel employee but admitted she wasn’t entirely sure of his identity.
“He doesn’t run,” she continued. “It’s almost like when you see a bear, and you don’t want to move.”
A Hilariously Bizarre Response
While startled by the situation, Cuoco said her immediate reaction was more comedic than she expected. “And then I go, ‘Sir?’” she said, which apparently prompted the man to snap out of his stillness.
“He apologised and ran out,” Cuoco added, describing how she was left frozen in place, still holding her blow-dryer. “I’m standing there, like, ‘What just happened?’”
The actor, who described the incident as “crazy,” theorised that the man might have been a hotel worker, though she said, “I hope!”
Meyers joked that the timing of the event seemed serendipitous, as it gave her a perfect anecdote for the talk show. Cuoco agreed, saying, “It felt fake – like a movie. I had to tell you because you can’t make this up. It just happened!”
Big Bang Theory Fans React to Spin-Off News
In other news about The Big Bang Theory, fans have been vocal about their mixed feelings on a potential spin-off. Reports from October revealed details about the project, which will focus on three supporting characters from the original series: Stuart Bloom, Denise, and Bert Kibbler.
Kevin Sussman, Lauren Lapkus, and Brian Posehn are set to reprise their roles for the spin-off, which is currently in development. The project has yet to be officially greenlit by Max but has Big Bang Theory co-creator Chuck Lorre attached as executive producer.
While some fans are excited to see these quirky characters in the spotlight, others question whether another spin-off can capture the magic of the original series or its successful predecessor, Young Sheldon.
