Johnny Depp was a guest on The Late Show yesterday and he told David Letterman how he almost met his maker on horse while filming The Lone Ranger.
They were filming a scene where he was riding a horse after a long day of riding the horse decided to do some of the obstacles that were in his path. When he jumped over one of them, Depp fell sideways because the saddle he was using was made so he would look like he was riding bareback. Depp knew he had to make a decision, either fall off of the horse or stay on until someone could stop it. He opted for falling and luckily the horse jumped over him and he only suffered minor injuries.
Thankfully all is OK because the world is not ready to lose that pretty face. At least I know I am not.
Helen Hunt was on The Late Show and she told David Letterman about how she wore a privacy patch in the movie that earned her an Oscar nomination. Well once she told the CBS host that, he was obsessed with knowing more about it. Maybe the next time she is on, she can give him one to try on. And let’s hope it is not something we see happen. I can live without ever seeing that image. Once you have seen one late night host in just his underwear and also in person, you don’t need to see anymore.
Gov Chris Christie is a large presence in the political world and today he made his debut on The Late Show. The NJ governor is the butt of many jokes on late night TV and David Letterman is the biggest teller of them. Well tonight was huge for the CBS host as the governor sat down with him for an interview. And Christie got his revenge on Letterman by actually making him laugh for once with his jokes as compared to 40% of time the other way around.
It is great to see that Chris Christie has a thick skin about it all.
Al Pacino was a guest on The Late Show yesterday and David Letterman had to remind him where he was and what he was doing. The CBS late night host asked him about The Godfather and he got so completely distracted, that Letterman had to try his hardest to get his attention back on him.
Then after a break the host brought out Kevin Spacey to do his best Al Pacino impression with Scarface there. Watch the video to see if he Kevorkianed aka killed it! Which you don’t need a House of Cards to tell you how it is going to turn out.
Charlie Sheen was on The Late Show yesterday and David Letterman asked him about his melt down, or as Sheen calls it melt forward. The former-Two and a Half Men star says that basically his mind separated from him and he lost it. No drugs were involved although he wishes there were because then he could blame them instead of what happened.
The Anger Management star has an anger in check, but he did he get one diss in for 2.5. He said he would like to return for the show’s finale. Then Letterman said that his character was dead and Sheen responded by saying so is the show. Now even though he bashed the show, he had nothing but good things to say about his former co-stars. He said Jon Cryer is a genius and one of his favorite co-stars ever. He also took the high road when it came to Angus T Jones by saying he hasn’t spoken to him since his bad PR incident and doesn’t know what happened with him.
It really appears that Sheen has gotten his sh!t together and that is a good thing. Although in a way I kind of miss his Sheenigans. They were fun.
