Imagine you get into an elevator just like you would on any other day. However, on this day, you get in, and standing there are Johnny Depp, Robert Downey Jr., and Pedro Pascal. What would you do?
If it were me, I would pull that emergency stop button so hard we would not be able to put it back in. In other words, I would be stuck there for hours until the hot firemen came to rescue me. But until then, I would play a damsel in stress.
Robert Downey Jr. is about to feel the wrath of Swifties, and I am not sure even Iron Man can prepare himself for that fallout.
The actor was asked to read the lyrics of Taylor Swift’s Blank Space by W Magazine, and he told them he was not familiar with the tune. So much so that he thought it was called Blank Face.
That could’ve been a forgivable offense for her rabid fans. However, you could tell he was not thrilled to do it.
And it was evident because after he was done, he declared, “Fucking got through it.”
I honestly can’t recall the actor, who is pretty much up for anything, being so upset about doing something.
Maybe RDJ was having a bad day, and that is why he was so unhappy. So, hopefully, her fanbase will go easy on him because he is a friend and not a foe. Lynn Hirschberg is the foe here.
This is the second interview I have seen go to shit this week. And interviewers better beware. Because actors learned they don’t have to do press during the strike, and they might start saying no.
Robert Downey Jr and Christopher Nolan sat down with Wired to Answer The Web’s Most Searched Questions.
One of the questions asked if the actor likes his Iron Man co-star. “I do not like Gwyneth Paltrow,” Downey Jr. told his director. “I absolutely adore her like a sister. Like a sister that you may have made out with a few times. While still liking her.”
All Nolan could do was laugh. And all I want to know is if it is true. Things that make you go, I wish I didn’t know that.
Along with answering this question, they talked a lot about their little movie Oppenheimer which is coming out this weekend. Go see it if Barbie is sold out.
In the Avengers movie, Robert Downey, Jr took down Thanos while wearing his Iron Man suit. In real life, the actor was knocked down by 7-year-olds when he was dressed as a pinata at his daughter Avri’s birthday party.
Is he OK with it? He wrote, “I gave the kids what they want. Which is clearly mob violence.” They learned well from his movies! What? They are full of mob violence. Right?
Seriously, how sweet are these videos! He is such an awesome dad! I am sure he makes Avri smile as much as she does the same for him.
Back in 1997, Leslie Jordan was sentenced to 120 days in prison for things he did not want to get into on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen yesterday.
When he got there, his lawyer told him to ask for the gay section. They told the actor that it is too tough for him, so they put him in the softy section. On the 10th day, the guards told him that they were letting him out the next day because they were giving Robert Downey, Jr. his bed.
The two men did not swap the bed in the cell, instead, they were in a holding area together. Sadly, they never talked. I wonder what they would say to each other now. Jordan owes him a huge thanks for getting him out of prison early.
The ’90s was a much different time for both actors.
Talking about much different, the Bravo host confused Jordan for another Leslie. That person was Leslie Jones because they look so much alike. Jordan is a short white man, and she is a tall black woman. I can see how he can confuse them.
