YOUTUBE PRANKSTERS TRICK CAROLE BASKIN INTO INTERVIEW

Big Cat Rescue’s Carole Baskin hasn’t wanted to do interviews since Netflix’s Tiger King came out. If you’ve seen the show, it’s probably not surprising she wasn’t thrilled with how she was portrayed in the documentary.

YouTube pranksters Archie Manners and Josh Pieters have had some success duping celebs in the UK but they had bigger hopes. This time they convinced Carole to record an interview for the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon. They promised not to mention the doc, and only talk about her sanctuary and the big cats. The lengths these guys went to score the Carole interview and make it seem like Jimmy was asking questions was impressive! We’re kinda hoping Jimmy scores an actual interview after this.
