When Mayim Bialik snubbed Neil Patrick Harris

Mayim Bialik and Neil Patrick Harris know each other since they were child co-actors, and have been friends. However, things took a turn and their cute friendship turned into a schism. They didn’t talk for a few years after Bialik broke a Broadway protocol and disrespected her long time friend. Recently, Bialik spoke about the controversial act of hers on ‘The Late Late Show With James Corden’, where she revealed that she did not give her friend Harris a standing ovation while watching one of his shows. The reason was that she isn’t too fond of musicals. Her rude act was noticed by Harris from the stage and he asked her about it.
