Blind Item # 8 - Golden Globes
From JV - In our second winner of the night for worst person at the show, this former A list mostly television actor from an iconic show turned director turned B list actor almost got into a fight with a waiter because the waiter didn't get out of the way fast enough when our actor approached. The actor told the waiter where he should stand to avoid coming near any actors and if he didn't get out of the way the next time, our actor would get him fired. Well, that upset the waiter and he said something to the actor and then the actor gave the waiter a shove and told him to get back to work. It was then that the actor was pulled away.
David Schwimmer? Did he direct?
ReplyDeleteYep-he directed some theatre
ReplyDeleteSchwimmer directed some Friends episodes among things.
ReplyDeleteMatt LeBlanc if he was the GGs
ReplyDeleteAnd a simon pegg movie in london.
ReplyDeleteOh God, please let me be a waiter and have an actor put hands on me and come at me like that. Give me a reason to go ape shit.
ReplyDeleteMakes me smile that the waiter (probably a struggling actor himself) stood up to the Ass!
ReplyDeleteI would believe this to be David Schwimmer.
Wasn't he the subject of a lot of a blind about his bad behavior on that short lived really bad show that was canceled just after airing?
Something about a restaurant, I think?
If karma exists, the waiter will become an A list actor who will get to shove the pathetic has-been worm one day.
ReplyDeleteThese arrogant celebrities never learn. Merely putting your hands on someone in order to insinuate aggression/physical violence is defined as assault in some places.
ReplyDeleteThe great thing is that most of the wait staff at the GG's aren't even full-time Beverly Hilton employees; they're "banquet extras" brought in by the local union to handle bigger events. Schwimmer probably can't even get them "fired", if he tried.
ReplyDeleteThe absolute worst is that he might (MIGHT) get the BH to blacklist them, and then they'd be limited to only working at the other major hotels, instead. So much for the Wrath of Ross.
Schwimmer was a jerk long before Friends. He grew up entitled and has been rolling with the same crowd of d-bags ever since. I've seen how he treats servers so am not surprised by this blind.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha. He once had quite a.crush on me and asked a few of my friends if he could take me out for dinner, a date, whatever. I said no, he seems like really an asshole. Everyone was upset with me. I just HAD to go. This is 10 years ago btw.
ReplyDeleteReally awful show, BTW.
