Richard Gere shocked viewers of morning TV show 'Live With Regis And Kelly' by joking about a horse-riding accident, mere days after Christopher Reeve's death. The Chicago actor recorded an interview about his recent horse-riding injury with hosts Kelly Ripa and Regis Philbin last week, which was aired on Tuesday. When asked if he broke his hand by falling off a horse, Gere joked, "Men are not thrown off horses." Viewers were horrified to what appeared to be Gere's "insensitivity" to Reeve, who was paralyzed from the neck down after he was thrown from his horse in Virginia in 1995. Superman star Reeve died on Sunday after suffering cardiac arrest.
