Sylvester Stallone was on Live with Kelly and Ryan this morning and he told Ryan Seacret what he did before he was an actor. Before he got his big break, my alma mater, the Unversity of Miami, broke up with him. Without any goals, his family wanted him to get into their business which is full of beauticians.
Even though he did not have the hands for it, he still went to beauty school like his family wanted to. He tried, but his fingers and attitude were not right for it.
Therefore, he dropped out and went into acting. After that, you know what happened.
If he had not failed out, could you imagine his paws working their magic in your hair? I can’t.
Back in 1982, Sylvester Stallone introduced us to Rambo, an Army veteran who is an expert at killing. He did that for four more movies and then he took an 11-year break. Good things come to those who wait because on September 20th, he is back in Rambo: Last Blood.
Today we are getting the first glimpse from the film and Rambo still loves to kill. Which means his biggest kill will be at the box office.
So as I was watching the trailer for this movie, I realized I never saw any of the Rambo movies. Did I miss anything?
On December 15, 1985, Brigitte Nielsen married Sylvester Stallone. By July 1987, they were divorced. Their 19-month marriage was not a good one and the actress had no qualms admitting that to Larry King on his Ora TV show.
She told him, “You know what, you can say about Sylvester, a lot of good things about Sylvester.” Then she added, “He’s a horrible husband. At least he was with me.”
The new mom also told the host that the worst piece of advice she was ever given was to marry Stallone. As soon as she said that to him, he asked her “Was it that bad?” Without hesitation, she declared, “Yes.”
Therefore, he wanted to know what it was like on the set of Creed II when the two of them were working together again. She said that they are professionals. Not only that, it was a long time ago and they buried the hatchet. She thinks more exes should do that.
She is right, they show. However, it does not really sound like she has. I cannot wait for her eventual Lifetime biopic because you know it will be so juicy. We have not even talked about the Flavor Flav years.
It has been over 35 years since we got to meet Rambo. Today, Sylvester Stallone got to meet him all over again because he is filming the 5th installment. The first film in the franchise in 10 years.
There is a big change for the action hero. Gone is the mullet and headband. Now the army vet is a cowboy. How long will the chap wear chaps? We will find out next fall when Rambo V comes out.
For over 40 years, we have thought that Rocky Balboa is indestructible. Turns out he might be, but Sylvester Stallone is not because he might have just met his matches. The Oscar star ran into reining Heavyweight champion Deotay Wilder and former heavyweight Lennox Lewis in DC for the presidential pardoning of the first black heavyweight champion Jack Johnson and looks like they got the upper hand on him.
What I find so shocking about this photo is how little Sly looks. I know that he is not as tall as the camera makes him appear, but here it really shows his stature. Not that there is anything wrong with it. Believe me, not that there is anything wrong with it.
