Some days we come to work and whine, "I don't wanna write about Jennifer Aniston. She's booooooring!" But you know what? We suck it up and do it anyway. You want to know why? Because it's our fucking job. So we don't feel much sympathy for actors who complain about promoting their movies. That's how it works. You make a movie, you go talk to people about it so that people like us will pay to see it. That's how you earn your ridiculously inflated paycheck. Someone please explain this to Evan Rachel Wood. The NY Post says:
EVAN Rachel Wood plays a bubbly blonde in Woody Allen's bumbling "Whatever Works," which kicked off the Tribeca Film Festival on Wednesday — but she was neither bubbly nor a blonde at the after-party. The actress, sporting a red dye job, agreed to pose for photos, but stormed out with her hands over her face almost immediately after being asked a simple question by a reporter. Her publicist later explained that she was feeling "overcrowded." Allen didn't stay long either, with his rep also chalking up his early exit to his "feeling claustrophobic." "Seinfeld" co-creator Larry David, the film's star, gamely stuck around all evening, telling Page Six, "Let's hope more people end up seeing this than 'Sour Grapes,' " the feature he penned in 1998 that made only $120,000.
Now that's the kind of attitude we like. Larry David could probably eat platefuls of $100 bills for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the next fifty years and still never come close to running out of money, and he says, "Hey guys, sorry my other movie sucked. Come see this one!" While Evan Rachel Wood is sobbing in the corner, muttering, "I'm a tortured artist, I'm a wilting flower, no one understands me, leave me alone!"
