Matt LeBlanc managed to gross just about everybody out — including those on the red carpet — when he creepily commented on Emilia Clarke’s naked body… while talking to Emilia Clarke.
While speaking with E! News at the 2016 Emmy Awards, LeBlanc and Clarke, who previously met while on a British talk show and shared a selfie on the encounter, was patched together via televised feed for a joint interview. Everything was fine and dandy as Clarke gushed about their previous meeting until LeBlanc decided to veer the conversation to the actress’ nude scenes on Game of Thrones.
Confessing he’s only seen the first season of the HBO show, LeBlanc told red carpet correspondent Jason Kennedy and Clarke, who was listening in on the interview with Giuliana Rancic, that he needed to catch up as he stopped just before the actress started “getting naked” on the series.

Needless to say, the exchange was awkward and everyone got creeped out by a 49-year-old man openly objectifying Clarke and publicly admitting that he enjoys ogling at young women’s bodies. (You know, despite the fact that she’s an accomplished actress and is LITERALLY. LISTENING. IN. on the conversation.)
Every woman ever after #MattLeBlanc said he only wants to watch #GOT cause Emilia Clarke gets naked #Emmys
Like a professional, Clarke shrugged it off and make a joke about never seeing LeBlanc naked on Friends.
At this point, we don’t think anyone wants to see LeBlanc on anything for a while.
