Val Kilmer found about his divorce by watching CNN
November 10th, 2006 under Val Kilmer. [ Comments: none ]

Val Kilmer was shocked to find out his wife was divorcing him while watching news channel CNN on a trip to Ireland. The 46-year-old star was married to British actress Joanne Whalley at the time and the couple have two children, daughter Mercedes and son Jack. When Elle magazine asked he actor if he’d ever been dumped he replied, "Well, I was visiting Marlon Brando in Ireland, and I turned on CNN and found out my wife had filed for divorce. She took the kids and moved to a different state. I guess that counts as being dumped." Kilmer claims the experience of going through a divorce taught him a lot adding, "You just don’t understand humility until you have children and get divorced. I was very hurt and very angry and so was she. But when kids are involved, you either become friends with respect or you become mortal enemies."

Joe Eszterhaus dishes on Madonna, Warren Beatty and more
September 5th, 2006 under Madonna, Sharon Stone, Val Kilmer. [ Comments: none ]

Joe Eszterhas wrote "Basic Instinct," "Flashdance," "Showgirls" and "Jagged Edge" and once got $4 million for a four-page outline. But now, the superscripter has written "The Devil’s Guide to Hollywood: The Screenwriter as God," in which he dishes about the stars with whom he’s worked as he doles out tips on his craft. To wit:

  • "Liv Tyler did an interview in which she said she was the inspiration for ‘Showgirls.’ She said I had become obsessed with her after seeing her play a stripper in an Aerosmith video. She said, ‘He tried to get me to take the lead in the movie, but I didn’t want to get into that kind of thing.’ It was news to me. I’d never seen the Aerosmith video, I’d never met or spoken with Liv."

  • "Val Kilmer is an imbecile. Asked by the Academy to nominate the three best film moments of the century, Kilmer nominated three of his movies. One of them was ‘Batman Forever.’"
  • "For many years, Robert De Niro, always brilliant onscreen, couldn’t even say two words on his own. He’d sit there, not speaking – woefully, miserably, pathetically lost without the words of a script."
  • "Michael Douglas, in my experience, is not brilliant and may very well, in some cases, be dumb. This is the guy who wanted to change the ending of ‘Basic Instinct’ because it wasn’t ‘redemptive.’ Douglas didn’t like that he was the star of the movie and that [Sharon Stone] ‘one-ups me at every turn.’"
  • Meanwhile, "Sharon’s ‘prima donna’ behavior so annoyed the crew on one of her movies that they relieved themselves into a bathtub before Sharon got into it for her scene."
  • "The joke in Hollywood is that Warren Beatty, the ‘great auteur,’ can turn a ‘go’ movie into a development deal. He’ll get involved, work with six writers rewriting your script, then pull out of the project."
  • "You don’t want Edward Norton to star in your movie. He now rewrites all the scripts he agrees to act in."
  • And Eszterhas claims that when Madonna was trying to get the part in "Desperately Seeking Susan," she went to the office of Orion production chief Barbara Boyle, "dropped to her knees and said, ‘I’ll do anything to get this part.’ Boyle said, ‘I’m happily married and I’m straight,’ to which Madonna replied, ‘You should try everything once.’"

    I am sure most of it is BS, but it is still a fun read

    Val Kilmer’s publicist says he is great shape
    August 10th, 2006 under Val Kilmer. [ Comments: none ]

    CALL him "Fatman." Val Kilmer, the once-muscular star of "Batman Forever," was recently photographed shirtless on a California beach with a beer belly hanging over his swimsuit. "Anybody can take an unflattering photo of a human being. It’s a mean-spirited thing to do," Kilmer’s rep fumed, adding that the actor did a layout for Nylon magazine last week and "he was in great shape."

    Page Six 

    Anyone can take an unflattering picture yes, but then again any magazine can retouch a photo and make someone look to be in good shape. So basically his publicist is as truthful to us as Steven Huvane is about his clients.

    WTF happened to Val Kilmer?
    August 9th, 2006 under Val Kilmer. [ Comments: none ]

    He is perhaps best known for playing comic book superhero Batman on screen – while off-screen he has dated the likes of Cindy Crawford.But where a six pack once rippled on Val Kilmer’s chest, now stands what looks more like a rather large beer belly.As he strode out of the sea after taking a dip near his home in California, there appeared to be a lot more to Kilmer than once met the eye. There’s really nothing like a Hollywood star on the beach – and Val looked really nothing like a Hollywood star in the beach,’ an onlooker joked.’He had this heaving great belly hanging over his shorts and flabby arms. It just shows you how quickly a man can lose definition in his body when he gets into his 40s and lets himself go a bit.’

    Daily Mail 

    I would still tap him.
