Back in February, KTLA’s Sam Rubin confused Samuel L Jackson for Laurence Fishburne, and it didn’t go over too well with the actor. So it became Jackson’s mission to prove that Fishburne and him are two different people. He even went as far as making up a T-shirt that reads, “I am not Laurence Fishburne.”
Up until now, the story has only been one-sided. Today on Queen Latifah‘s daytime talk show, she gets the black-ish star’s reaction to it all. Believe it or not, people confuse him for the Snakes on a Plane bad a$$. So the host made sure that that will never happen again because she gave him a shirt that says, “I am not Samuel L. Jackson”.
So now you know who is Samuel L Jackson and who is Laurence Fishburne. I think?
Before Samuel L Jackson mastered breaking into places in several movies, he had problems breaking into a library in Ragtime. He looks the same now as he did when he was 32 in that 1981 movie.
So someone at Huffington Post Movie Mashups, edited together all of Samuel L Jackson’s mother f*ckers from his movie and made one bad a$$ compilation. So sit back and watch this obviously NSFW video and listen to baddest MoFo in the biz prove why he is just that.
Although I think I can go a few months without hearing those two words together after this. I never thought I would say that, but 171 times is a lot of Mother F*ckers even for me.
Samuel L Jackson was on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon and he read a Slam Poem in honor of Boy Meets World. Just when you think that Nick Fury can’t be any more awesome, he does something like this.
While it is not as great as his infamous speech in Snakes on A Plane, it is pretty darn close.
Samuel L Jackson was on KTLA this morning to talk about Robocop and Sam Rubin asked him about the Super Bowl commercial he was in. Only problem, is Shaft wasn’t in any Super Bowl ad this year. The person that the Entertainment Reporter was thinking of was Laurence Fishuburne. Well Jackson went all Pulp Fiction on him and said that not all African Americans look alike. He then launched into a Snakes on a Plane like rant describing the other actors to Rubin so he wouldn’t get them confused again.
Personally, I have never liked Sam Rubin, so I am happy that Jackson called him out for making a stupid mistake on the air. Granted it happens to all of us, I once confused Doris Roberts for Renee Taylor; but at least mine was off-camera.
Now back to Rubin, he did an on-air apology to Jackson a half hour afterwards and tried to make it as thought he was talking about the Captain America ad that aired during the football game. Do you believe him because I don’t.
