Jason Segel's Unexpected Rejection Letter
Jason Segel's Unexpected Rejection Letter, Hillary Clinton Declines Role on ‘How I Met Your Mother’ with Humorous Letter, The actor's joke about casting Hillary Clinton in "How I Met Your Mother" gets a funny reply. Hillary Clinton send Jason Segel a rejection letter, Fans of the show 'How I Met Your Mother' have been kept in suspense for almost eight years, as the mother herself has never been revealed. Well, the mystery was almost solved -- with the help of Hillary Clinton.
Last week, comedic actor Jason Segel appeared on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," and he said he was often asked -- while he was on the red carpet, even -- the identity of the secret title character on his hit sitcom "How I Met Your Mother." He revealed that, as a joke, he had actually started responding to reporters that he was contemplating casting Hillary Clinton as the mother.
To Segel's surprise, Clinton, the Secretary of State, responded by sending him a rejection letter in the mail. The website Politico obtained the letter. It reads, "I was delighted to read about your interest in sharing the big screen with me. As you can imagine, I am a little occupied at the moment, but perhaps someday I can help you forget Sarah Marshall ... again." The letter goes on to read "my only condition is that there be Muppets involved, and this is non-negotiable."
Segel starred in the 2008 romantic comedy 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' and the 2011 musical comedy film 'The Muppets.'
If Clinton does want to get involved in the show in the future, perhaps she can just shoot Segel a text.
