Last week, movie director and producer Michael Bay lost all composure at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) when the teleprompter and he got out of sync resulting in Bay suddenly walking off stage after only a single minute.

What makes this particularly embarrassing was that he was on stage to promote Samsung’s new curved HDTV, as a paid sponsor I’m sure. Losing your wits and leaving your meal ticket high and dry, though, is great content for social media, news and comedians alike (see Tina Fey mock Bay at the Golden Globes).
