Beyond the Lights Page #2
There's gonna be a press conference
in about 30 minutes.
She wants to publicly thank you.
She needs to be in a hospital,
not in front of cameras.
She's OK. She just had a little
too much to drink and she slipped.
What?
Look, son,
that doesn't change what you did.
And they are very... grateful.
You're telling me to lie?
She's written her script.
She's playing her part.
And so will you.
I was celebrating and things
got a little out of hand.
So, let this be
a lesson to all of you.
Never mix champagne, a balcony
and five-inch stilettos.
Um, how does a person fall off a balcony
with a four and a half foot railing'?
Yeah, she's just here
to make a statement...
Officer Nicol,
was this a suicide attempt?
Steve, you're not gonna hijack
this press conference
with your tabloid bullshit, all right?
He can't answer a simple question?
Answer the question.
Just answer the question.
He was there.
People would want to know.
I was summoned into the hotel room
where I found Miss Jean
holding on to the balcony railing.
As I pulled her to safety,
it was clear she was inebriated.
- Thank you.
- Truth is,
I wouldn't be standing here
if it wasn't for Officer Nicol.
He pulled me up.
Even with all this... extra.
- Thank you.
She's not out of control.
She won a Billboard Award tonight
and she was celebrating...
So, Officer, what are you gonna do
with your 15 minutes?
- Excuse me?
- Of fame.
I bet you're gonna pull a lot of chicks
with this whole sexy, hero cop thing.
Don't do that.
Two hours ago,
you were trying to drop 12 floors.
And you were screaming,
"I see you".
So... just what do you see?
Nothing.
OK. All right?
Thanks very much.
Can you make me understand, Noni?
- I told you, I was drunk.
- You don't drink.
Now we know why.
Is this some, uh...
some sort of cry for help?
- No.
- Good. 'Cause look around you.
- You ain't got nothing to cry about.
- I know. It was stupid.
You can't afford to be stupid!
You just tell me it was a mistake.
It was a mistake.
Promise me it'll never happen again.
OK.
I want to hear you say it.
I promise,
Yeah, that's our guy.
- Try and get a quote.
Officer Nicol?
Officer Nicol, over here?
- One shot, please?
This way, sir.
Officer Nicol?
Steve Sams with the National Enquirer.
You're trespassing.
I already said everything
I have to say.
I'll pay you 20,000
off the record.
Fifty for an exclusive.
You hit the lottery, man.
No shame in that.
The offer is good
Hey.
Yup, yup, yup, yup-
