Makin' Movies, Makin' Music, And Fightin' Round The World

As his turns in L.A. Confidential, The Insider, Romper Stomper, and other movies show, Russell Crowe is indeed a great actor. Too bad he's such a hotheaded asshole. He was arrested earlier today at a New York hotel for whacking an employee of the hotel in the head with a phone.

"He was upset because he couldn't get a call out to Australia," said Sgt. Michael Wysokowski. "He threw a phone at the employee hitting him in the face and causing a minor laceration."

The incident took place at the Mercer Street Hotel in the SoHo district of New York City shortly after 4 a.m. on Monday.

Police said the victim was taken to St.Vincent's Hospital. Crowe was taken to a police station were he was charged with second-degree assault. If convicted he could face up to a year in prison.


Note to Russell Crowe: Oscar nominations are not a free pass to kick anyone's ass you want.

I guess someone needs to buy Russ a cell phone for his birthday. Wow.

Oh yeah, I forgot that was out. No wonder he remembered to act like a primadonna again... The timing on his stunts is always very...interesting.

That's no good either; roaming charges really set him off.

I don't know... I'd let him throw a phone at me just because he made "Master and Commander". I loved that movie, and I'll let the fool slide for bringing one of my favorite literary characters to the screen so convincingly.

Anyone see him on the "Daily Show"? Poor Jon Stewart did the interview in a constant full-body flinch for fear of getting socked by the lout.

Thank you, DIVERTOR!

Hmm, maybe if we neutered him he would simmer down.

How many times is this now? I seem to recall having heard about him assaulting people at least three times before this.
What an asshole.
