Remember me
Ruby Wax shocked viewers as she joked she should have 'taken out' American President Donald Trump during their 2000 interview while appearing on This Morning.
The former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! campmate joined Ben Shephard and Angela Scanlon live on the ITV daytime show to discuss her upcoming tour, Ruby Wax: Absolutely Famous.
The tour will see Ruby, 72, open up on her TV career, including her hit 1990s TV series Ruby Wax Meets... which featured a diverse cast of interviewees including Donald Trump, OJ Simpson, and Pamela Anderson.
As talk turned to her meeting with Trump, 79, who in 1999 made his first bid for presidency running under the Reform Party, Ruby didn't hold back on her opinions about the current President.
The star revealed how she was 'thrown off' a plane as she sat down with Donald and his now wife, former model Melania, 55.
Issuing a series of savage takedowns, Ruby began: '[The interview with Donald Trump] was a disaster. I got on his private plane, which has a gold bidet...

'He had one hair, now he has road kill, and they had to wind it like a Mr Whippy. They constructed the hair, and then he came in and first thing he said was he wanted to be the next President.
'I thought, "This guy is hilarious", so I laughed thinking, "This guy is a joker", and he said, "No, I want her off the plane".
'Because he hated me so much, I was in the eyes of evil and he thought, "I can't speak" because when someone treats you like an idiot, you become an idiot...'
The TV star then shocked viewers at home as Angela, 42, and Ben, 51, joked with Ruby about Trump later becoming President in 2017, and again in 2025.
Ruby said: 'Go figure... I should have taken him out,' before panicking and trying to brush off the comment, adding: 'Maybe I shouldn't have said that. Can you erase that bit?'
Shrugging it off, Ruby concluded: 'It's all in jest.'
Fans at home were quick to flood X, formerly Twitter, with their reaction to the comment, dividing viewers as some dubbed it 'crazy' and others 'hilarious'.
One penned: 'Did Ruby Wax just say that on #ThisMorning?' as another chimed in: 'Another one calling for the assassination of the president of the united states, these people are crazzzzzzzy!'

An angry viewer wrote: 'Ruby Wax saying she should of killed the president on This Morning, sick old bat you should be ashamed of yourself ya c**t.'
Finding the funny side, someone else said: 'Ruby Wax talking about Donald Trump on This Morning is hilarious,' as another added: 'Ruby Wax is hilarious. Let her host this show.'
It comes after Ruby left This Morning hosts Ben and Cat Deeley blushing as she made a VERY X-rated joke about her I'm A Celebrity eating trial during her last show appearance.
The comedian made an appearance via live video link on the ITV daytime show, just hours after being evicted from camp as the latest celebrity to leave the Jungle.
Ruby, 72, found herself in the bottom two alongside Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley on Wednesday night before she was announced to be next to depart by hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.
Joining Ben, 50, and Cat, 49, the Ruby Wax Meets host admitted she was 'devastated' to be waving goodbye to the ITV reality series.
While she made a series of heartfelt admissions about her campmates, gushing over them as 'family', it wasn't long before Ruby had the studio laughing.
Opening up on her eating trial alongside AngryGinge early on in the series, Ruby admitted she found it easy because she has a throat 'lot of girth'.

She revealed: 'I ate a pig's scrotum, and the end of a bull's penis - I mean that was my opening, that was where I started, and Ginge had to eat an anus.
'We went through the anatomy and eat all of the parts we're not supposed to, the bottom parts, so that went down the mouth.
'That was my mantra, that was all I said to get it down my throat but I have a very wide girth so I can get anything down there.
Shocked and holding back laughter, Ben added: 'Doesn't matter what part of the anatomy! You can make sure that it all goes down?'
'I can get it down there,' Ruby replied.
Ruby went on to make another rude jibe as she spoke about fellow campmate, Celebs Go Dating star Tom Read Wilson, who she explained helped her in and out of the camp water pool each day.
One scene on the show saw the pair in an embrace in the natural creek, while another saw the pair share a kiss during a challenge.
Ruby, who was appointed camp leader over the weekend, joked: 'Tom and I, he was my servant and he was there to satisfy the lady, which is me.
'Every day he would recite Shakespeare and take me to the liquid, and how dare I say it? He would enter me, in a loving way, never frisky, just loving.'
Ruby took part in a series of challenges on the ITV series, including one where she had to eat different animal body parts
As Ben and Cat stifled their laughs, and guest Ferne McCann hid her face behind a card in embarrassment, Ruby continued: 'We were a perfect match.'
Elsewhere, Ruby opened up on her 'devastation' at being the latest celebrity to be voted off the show, following on from Vogue Williams and Eddie Kadi earlier this week.
'I'm totally devastated, I've been ripped from my family, ripped from the womb, and I'm so upset I can't even tell you,' she told Ben and Cat.
'I belong in that jungle and I want to go to my people, badly.
'I didn't think it was going to be so adorable, I didn't know I'd love those people more than my own [family], well not more than that, but more than most people I know.
'Wherever I am I think is my home, so I kept saying, there's my brother, there's my sister, there's Ginge, he's my grandson.
'Everybody had a different relationship, everyone had different things when you needed it, here's a laugh, here's a mum, you needed everybody and everybody made one giant perfect person.'

But there's one person that Ruby won't be missing, despite a flirty exchange between the pair after one of the ITV show's Dingo Dollar Challenges.
'Kiosk Kev, I don't mind leaving him, he gave me a photo of him but he threw a lot of cockroaches at me and didn't let me in the Jungle Arms so Kev is dead to me, he's finished,' Ruby concluded.
Ruby became the fifth campmate to leave I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! during the most recent season, in an exit that stunned both the camp, and viewers at home.
Speaking to hosts Ant and Dec about her experience, Ruby described her remaining campmates as 'family,' and said she was 'sad' to bid farewell to them.
She told them: 'I can't believe it. It was fantasy land, suddenly there's a light. We were just a cluster of loving people.
'Totally forgot the outside world, we shaved each other, investigated each other's lower regions. I was checking Lisa's bowels this morning, doesn't get any closer.
'When I signed up I thought, "Let's give this a go" but I wasn't expecting this. This is family and I'm sad I lost them. I wasn't expecting this. I was the queen, "How can she be abducted?"
'I got away with everything by charm. I was the queen but not voted so, I had to behead someone.
Ben and Cat stifled their laughs during Ruby's segment on the ITV daytime show
'When I became leader, they were my servants. When you're leader and you're so in the walls of reality, you are the leader.
'I can't believe we've been voted out but OK, so be it.'
On her relationship with Aitch and Ginge, she added: 'I don't know why I was drawn to them but we had so much in common, I knew I would be friends with them.
'Tom Read Wilson was very romantic, he wooed me and won me.
'We all became slightly hysterical and became five years old and I lay on Lisa's breast every night and I went to about three years old.
When she was told Aitch and Ginge took more than one milk bottle each, she said: 'I'll have to punish them when they come out, very badly, I can't believe it. OK, I will deal with that. I had more than fun, I bonded.'
