Brad Pitt’s media blitz has been tainted by an admission by his director buddy, Quentin Tarantino. The loose-lipped filmmaker told, of all people, Howard Stern in an interview on Monday, “He [Pitt] takes this brick of hash, whips out a knife, like Jesse James, and cuts me off a big slither. I go, ‘Do you have a pipe to go with this?’ And he handed me a Coke can!”
Now some out there will surly thinking, “what’s the big deal?” Okay, so the powerhouse gents got together to do the pot, however, the real smoking gun is the simple fact Pitt stated on two separate occasions that he had quit smoking, thus Tarantino’s “tell all” made a big fat liar out of Pitt. Just the other night Pitt told commentator Bill Maher, “I’m a dad now. You want to be alert and my eyes used to glaze over when I did that.”
There is another dynamic to this silly mess; A source close to the situation told ThecounT.com exclusively, “Angie thought Brad had quit, Angelina was the one who suggested he [Pitt] quit after the kids were born and Brad agreed.” Our source also noted “Think about it, while Angie was in a hospital bed recovering from birthing the twins, Brad is partying with Quentin, there is no doubt that this will cause a real rift between them.”
Howard Stern Show alum Artie Lange was arrested today for suspicion of driving under the influence. The troubled radio host was a part of a fender bender out in New Jersey and when cops arrived they determined Lange was under the influence of alcohol. The car crash was reportedly minor.
TMZ reported this story about an hour ago so we don’t know if Lange has been released or not. We also don’t know how much trouble this is going to give him. Drunk driving in the middle of the day? That doesn’t look too good. The man has a lot of problems, including an admitted addiction to drugs. He’s a pretty talented comic and writer so let’s hope he can clean himself up.
King of all media, Howard Stern, made an appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman last night and spent a good amount of time trashing Letterman’s former rival, Jay Leno. Calling him a “robot”, Stern said that he never liked Leno and didn’t seem too big a fan of Leno’s replacement, Conan O’Brien.
Letterman tried his best to keep out of the one-sided argument but thanked Stern for his loyalty. You can watch the entire video segment here and judge for yourself if Stern went too far. This is Howard Stern we’re talking about, however, so remember that his boundaries aren’t like yours and mine.
An interesting note though: Stern noted that he had been told last night’s episode was expected to beat O’Brien in the ratings. That would put Letterman ahead of The Tonight Show for the first time in something like fifteen years. We’ll see if it all panned out like planned.
OK, First off, Howard Stern and his staff were fooled so how stupic can we feel there at ThecounT.com for falling for this fake? Pretty stupid! Especially since you see the dork that created it! See his video here and how he is using the fake to try and GET WORK!
