Culture, Politics: Bill O’Reilly didn’t see “Milk” because of Sean Penn. His loss.

  • He’s a great actor, and if you hire him, you’ll get a good performance. I’m just not going to give a guy who gives aid and comfort to people like Ahmadinejad, Hugo Chavez and Saddam Hussein, when he was alive, my 10 bucks. That’s my right as an American.
  • Bill O’Reilly • Who’s “a big movie guy” but will not spend money to see Sean Penn in a movie. We hope he changes his mind, because we think an upcoming flick of his might be right up his alley. • source

Culture: Cloris Leachman’s tell-all autobiography tells a little too much

  • One day we made an agreement that I would have sex with him if he lost 32 pounds. He almost did it; he lost 29 pounds. We both got so disoriented at what we were facing that his weight shot back up, and our assignation never happened.
  • Actress Cloris Leachman • Discussing the possibility of having sex with Ed Asner, her co-star on “Mary Tyler Moore.” She also speaks of a random night with Gene Hackman back in the 1970s. Keep in mind that all this stuff happened over 30 years ago and Leachman is like 82 now. • source
