Famous Feuds
Sullivan was plagued by rumors of conflicts with various celebrities throughout the course of his career. Some are showbiz legends, while others are ones we know to be true because of their widely reported arguments on the show. Sullivan also had issues with Walter Winchell, Steve Allen, Frank Sinatra, Jack Paar, Nat “King” Cole, and Arthur Godfrey over the years. We will never know if it was just people’s imaginations or if it was all true. Perhaps it was just his characteristic grimacing nature.
Multi-Talented
Many of Sullivan’s guests were welcomed with joy and admiration by the host, despite some of his acts causing controversy and the subsequent disputes that followed these contentious appearances. Additionally, Sullivan didn’t just invite pop and rock stars to perform; in keeping with the nature of his show, he also invited a wide variety of other acts. Liberace was one performer who stands out for his flashy and flamboyant style as well as the way he incorporated comedy skits into his shows. Even so, this wasn’t even close to being the most thrilling episode ever.
