Samuel L. Jackson has done a lot of crazy things in movies throughout his 50-year career. Today on The Jennifer Hudson Show, she asked him what was the craziest.
Do you think it was from one of his Quentin Tarantino movies? Or how about one of the many, many times he has played Nick Fury? If you thought it was one of those films, you would be wrong. It was actually 1996’s The Long Kiss Goodnight.
In that movie, he and Geena Davis are escaping a shootout in a train station as a grenade is going off. Davis uses her machine gun to shoot out the window so that they can jump down into the ice below. Then, as they freefalling to the ground, she shoots at the ice to break it. And then we see them hit the ice and come up for air.
You would think that director Renny Harlin would have used stunt doubles for his wife and Jackson, but he didn’t. So the two actors were submerged in the freezing cold water to make that scene look realistic.
So they would have to go down into the frozen water, stay there for 5 seconds, come up, run across the ice, and wait in a hot tub so the director could see how it looked.
After the first try, Harlin wasn’t happy. So they did it four more times. By the fifth time, EMS was waiting on standby. And that was a good thing because Jackson woke up in his trailer covered in one of those silver warming blankets after the fifth take.
So you would think after all of that, he would have hated that film. But he loves it so much that it is actually one of his favorites.
It was definitely memorable for him. To see that unforgettable scene, then click here!
You might not know this, but Tisha Campbell is a child actress, so she has been part of the Hollywood scene for a really long time. Therefore, she has a lot of interesting stories to tell, and she spilled the Tea-sha on The Jennifer Hudson Show tomorrow.
One of the things the actress revealed is that she once made Thanksgiving dinner for Tupac Shukar. Not only that, Whitney Houston braided her hair when they both auditioned for the same thing.
But her most shocking reveal is that Lenny Kravitz was her first boyfriend. That’s right, the singer and her dated. But it didn’t get too exciting because they were in their early teens. Still, who wouldn’t want to have him as their first boyfriend? Actually, I wouldn’t because he would ruin all men for me after that.
After watching this interview and the one she did with Sherri Shepherd, I want to girl talk with her because you know she has stories for days! And I am here for all of them.
This year, Jennifer Hudson launched her talk show, and Jerry O’Connell began hosting Pictionary. And now, the two of them got together to help Josh and Davon start the rest of their lives together.
Today on The Jennifer Hudson Show, J-Hd asked J-O’Con to bring his drawing game show to hers. Because they had something secretly planned.
What was it? They were going to help Josh propose to his boyfriend of two years! And it worked because Josh was able to get down on his knee to surprise Davon with that one question.
Did Davon say yes? How could he say no to that heartfelt proposal?
Last year was not good for talk shows like Nick Cannon, Dr. Oz, Maury Povich, and more. However, this year is proving to be the opposite. That is because both Jennifer Hudson and Sherri Shepherd’s daytime talk shows were renewed for another season. Well, Sherri, who replaced Wendy Williams, was picked up for two!
