Ruby Wax's Chilling OJ Simpson Interview Revelations
19 Nov
Summary
- OJ Simpson once pretended to stab Ruby Wax with a banana.
- Simpson claimed he killed his ex-wife during a prank call.
- Wax believed she could make OJ confess to murder during interview.
Comedian and mental health advocate Ruby Wax has shared disturbing recollections from her interviews with OJ Simpson. During a 1998 interview, Simpson unsettlingly mimed stabbing Wax with a banana, evoking scenes from 'Psycho.' He later prank-called Wax on April Fool's Day, falsely claiming he had committed the murders.
Wax, who holds a degree in cognitive therapy, admitted her intention was to provoke a confession from Simpson regarding the deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. She stated her goal was to "bust him" and secure his admission on air, effectively acting as a "public defender."
Despite Wax's efforts and Simpson's subsequent civil liability for wrongful death, he was never criminally convicted. Simpson was found responsible by a civil jury, leading to substantial damages awarded to the victims' families. He later served prison time for unrelated armed robbery and kidnapping charges.
