“Hemmer’s a great interviewer, but he whiffed,” Watters said. “The main question that everybody wanted asked was, did they hook up? And he just left it hanging out there. I hope there’s a part two to this interview, Hemmer, because next time I see you I’m going to slap you silly.”

Jesse Watters faced a wave of online mockery after a recent segment where he talked about the death of actor Val Kilmer. During an interview with filmmaker Oliver Stone—who worked with Kilmer on the 1991 movie The Doors—Watters made a mistake by saying he was a fan of Kilmer’s performance in the 1987 vampire film The Lost Boys.

Fox News host Jesse Watters joked he was going to “slap” his colleague Bill Hemmer for not asking astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunni Williams whether they “hooked up” while stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) for nine months.
