Natalie Morales' Interview With Seth Meyers Caused A Stir Online, And Was Removed On All Major Platforms

2019 was a significant year for the career of Natalie Morales. The actress was making the rounds in March, appearing on late night talk shows. In fact, her appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon was her first late night talk show ever that year. The interview is available to watch on YouTube.

Shortly after, just a couple of days later, Morales appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers. It seems like this particular interview caused quite a stir. Morales had fans buzzing over her outfit of choice.

Surprisingly, the interview can't be found online, as it was pulled down on the NBC website. In addition, it isn't on YouTube either, given the amount of inappropriate comments at the time.

“What happened to the center of Natalie Morales’ shirt,” one user wrote. “Did she get it caught on something coming out on stage?”

Other fans went as far as to credit Seth Meyers for his 'eye contact.'

"I’ve got to say, Seth Meyers is a true pro! Didn’t. Look. Once! Because I’m sure Natalie, if somebody was wearing a similar dress, across from you, you would have been looking too!” Another fan wrote, “You owe an apology to Seth for putting him through that."

Although Stormy Daniels was normal about it, Jimmy Kimmel and the audience were taken aback by Donald Trump's TV "obsession."

Morales' career didn't suffer because of the moment and, nowadays, she's enjoying major success. In 2024, she started her journey on Grey's Anatomy, starring in five episodes as Dr. Monica Beltran. It seems like Morales had a lot of pull behind the scenes when it came to her character.

Natalie Morales Is Continuing To Enjoy Career Success Thanks To Grey's Anatomy

Speaking alongside Shondaland, Morales discussed how she personalized her Grey's Anatomy guest role. According to the actress, the role really came out of nowhere, and was expecting such an offer. She never played the role of a doctor before, which only added to the excitement creatively.

“[Guesting on Grey’s] totally came out of the blue for me,” Morales tells Shondaland. “It’s just such a legendary show, so when the offer came in, I was like, ‘This is so cool!’ And despite all the [characters] I’ve done, I’d never played a doctor before.”

Morales added that although she didn't do much research prior, she was more than prepared for the role.

"I honestly did not have any time to do that. But luckily, the medical advisers on Grey’s are so awesome. I did ask [executive producer and medical adviser] Linda Klein a ton of questions, and she made me feel good about not looking like a dope. And it’s not only about making sure I’m saying all the medical jargon correctly and actually understanding what I’m talking about, but also that I got the physicality of a doctor right."

She continues, "Like, what does a doctor do when they walk into a room? Do they shake people’s hands? Do they use hand sanitizer? I wanted to make sure that what I was doing and saying both made it feel real and lived in, that any doctor watching the show would immediately recognize it in a behavioral sense."

A great career moment for Morales, who continues to enjoy success.
