Rob Lowe was on (one of the last) The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien yesterday and he told the soon-to-be-departing late night host that “this actor” James Van Der Beek robbed him of home run at a celebrity baseball game at Dodgers Stadium a few months ago. Lowe said that he hit this amazing pitch, he was running the bases and that even though the Dawson’s Creek star who jumped and caught the ball, actually didn’t. The Brothers & Sisters star said the ball was rolling around on the floor and that JVDB picked it up and was like I caught it. So when Conan asked Lowe if Van Deek was a liar, he responded with, “He’s a liar…but a damn good actor.”
Well James Van Der Beek didn’t take that interview lying down on the field and he Tweeted the below photos with those captions. After looking at those pictures are you Team Lowe or Team Van Der Beek? Even though I am normally Team Lowe, I am Team Van Der Beek on this one!!!
BTW on a side note…I am Team Conan all the way!!!
This is me about to Rob Mr. Lowe of his home run…
I have no excuse for how stupid an act this really was… but I’ve chosen to blame Tommy Lasorda.
If you look closely, you’ll see the ball still in my glove… and my common sense nowhere to be found.
Anthony Kiedis was there to verify… as was the guy in the floral trunks.
Most people wouldn’t risk their life just to beat Rob Lowe in a charity game… but maybe they should.
James Van Der Beek and his wife of almost 6 years, Heather McComb have separated according to Us Weekly. Not much more is known except that they split two months ago. Who knew or cared he was married in the first place?
James Van Der Beek, is set to star in “Stone’s War,” written and directed by acclaimed Finnish director Marko Makilaakso. In the film formerly titled “War of the Dead,” Captain Martin Stone (Van Der Beek) is leading a finely-trained, elite platoon of American and Finnish soldiers as they attack an enemy bunker. Underestimating their enemy’s strength, they are quickly beaten back into the forest. As they try to regroup, they are suddenly attacked by the same soldiers they had just killed a few minutes earlier. Forced to flee deeper into Russian territory, they discover one of war’s most terrifying secrets and realize they have woken up a far more deadlier enemy. Principal photography for the film will begin April 2nd in Lithuania.
It is amazing that we didn't hear anything about him for the longest time and now he had Criminal Minds (after the Super Bowl) and this. So now all that needs to happen is Joshua Jackson gets some work! Whatever happened to him?
James Van Der Beek has revealed that his is embarking on his first foray into screenwriting with a script about baseball.The former Dawson’s Creek star has been out of the spotlight for several years waiting for the right acting part to come along, but in the meantime has started work on his own project.He told MovieHole: “I’m writing something at the moment – a baseball film. Love baseball. My dad played professionally before I was born. It’s about a guy who realises his dreams of playing in the major leagues, and at the same time, he falls in love. It’s about trying to reconcile the two."The star continued: "It’s the first thing I’ve written, and actually handed in, and gotten comments on – just ironing out some kinks right now, and it’s going to out to producers in the next few weeks.""I’ve also got another idea for a film, and I’m in the outline stages of that right now. It’s a way of creating your own destiny. You can hang around and wait for the right script to come along, or you can go ahead and get onto it yourself. As long as you believe one hundred percent in the scenario, I believe it’s worth doing," he added.
