I met Mike Meyers when I was 9yrs old and was an extra on the movie So I Married an Ax Murderer. He was the nicest guy in the world. Took me 2 days to build up the nerve to ask him for his autograph. He said, "I would love to, do you have anything to write on?" Both of us were in kilts with no pockets and there wasn't anything handy so he told me he'd find something and get it to me before my last day. 2 days went by and still no autograph, it was my last day on set and we wrapped the last scene I would be in (wedding scene). My dad who was also an extra could see how crushed I was and said "lets just see if he's in his trailer." We went to his trailer and knocked. He opened the door kind of flustered, they were in the middle of re-writing some scenes and he didn't ask me why I was there or who I was he just held up a finger meaning "one sec" and came back with a Waynes World glossy of him and it was already signed, "To John party on Mike Meyers". He didn't even ask me what my name was again. Legend! I'm now in my 40's and still have the autograph. Still love the guy
@JohnCooper-gm6mn2 жыл бұрын
Sounds very Mike Meyers. All of the stuff I've ever heard about him is that he can be difficult to work with creatively, but a wonderful person to work for as a subordinate or meet as a fan. Seems his dickish side only comes out when butting heads with his peers, but he's great with everyone else.

Julia Robert's reputation is one of the most notorious "secrets" in the entertainment industry. Part of the reason her PR team pushed the "America's Sweetheart" persona so hard was because she was considered such a nightmare to work with by cast, crew, and anyone else unfortunate enough to get in her way. I've been told stories by friends in the industry of her weeping uncontrollably as a manipulation tactic, having screaming tantrums while filming is supposed to be happening, verbally abusing anyone she doesn't like, purposely humiliating people in public, flirting with married men in front of their wives on numerous occasions, and canoodling with directors while trying to cut other actresses' screentime behind their backs.

Mike Myers and I went to the same high school, Stephen Leacock, around the same time. We'd both taken the TV course, which was only offered by two schools in Ontario. From what I remember, he transferred from Woburn, or maybe MacDonald, because of the TV course, after all, we had TV studios in our school!! You're hanging lights, and editing tape, and monitoring sound, and appearing in front of the camera, all while trying to figure out what you're gonna say next. He knew what direction he was pointed in, from very young. I found that he didn't interact that much with people, but, after all, he didn't know anyone, he was new to our school. Part two, coming soon...

Nancy Roberts literally named and blamed Julia in her suicide letter as the sole cause for her wanting to take her own life: Nancy had sold some story to the press and Julia made it sure she was ostracised from the family, eventually cowtowing but demanding that Nancy was only allowed to see their dying monther once for a few minutes on her death bed. Truly awful person.

John Lennon was one of my hero’s because of everything thing he stood for. I was crushed when he was murdered. About a month ago I learned about what he was like in real life, and I was crushed again. I was in an abusive relationship long ago & and I felt lost when I heard he did that. In addition, how he treated Julian was unforgivable. Just because he wasn’t planned, John didn’t include him in his will! Unbelievable 😢.
