“This Is Us” star Chrissy Metz did use a “B” word to describe Alison Brie at the Golden Globes on Sunday, but it may not have been the one that many viewers, and quite a few media outlets, initially thought. In fact, it was a much nicer one. According to AJ Gibson, one of the co-hosts of the red carpet pre-show on Facebook Live, Metz called the “Glow” star a “babe.” “While interviewing Chrissy during the HFPA Presents: Globes Red Carpet LIVE pre-show and as our conversation came to its natural conclusion, we were told to wrap and toss over to our co-hosts on another portion of the carpet, who were on standby with Alison Brie,” Gibson told People. “I jokingly asked Chrissy if she knew who Alison was, as a way to transition into the ‘toss’ and she played along. She then referred to Alison as a ‘babe’ and the fun exchange ended.” Also Read: Chrissy Metz Denies Calling Alison Brie a 'Bitch' at Golden Globes Ummm, my @goldenglobes interview with @ChrissyMetz went kinda viral…so I thought I’d clear a few things up.
