Rupert Everett, who loves nothing more than to whine about others whining, tells the Radio Times that us Americans are getting “blobby”:
“I’m totally off the States now. … The reaction to 9/11 and then George Bush — really, they’ve got very blobby as a nation. … Now they are whiny victims whose language is entirely taken from two TV shows — Friends and Sex And The City — and there’s nothing sexy about them any more. And that kind of semi-blindness about the rest of the world, which was attractive when America was exciting, is really unattractive now.”
Why, I’m offended! My language is based on How I Met Your Mother, thank you very much. Now suit up, bitch!
As you may know, this isn’t the first time Rupert has expressed his disdain for Americans, also noting that:
“George Clooney thinks that, provided he does films which are politically committed, he’s allowed to do Ocean’s 11, 12, and 13. But the Ocean’s movies are a cancer to world culture. … And De Niro, Redford, Keaton, Allen, Pacino … They’re all just tragic parodies of themselves. Al Pacino looks like a mad old freak now. I say give it a rest, or go and do some serious stuff.”
All this, coming from the guy who did Dunston Checks In. Oh, Rupert. *SIGH* At least we’ll always have My Best Friend’s Wedding:
“Maybe there won’t be marriage. Maybe there won’t be sex. But by God, there WILL be dancing!”
I believe the term is “Fine weather Friend,” Rupie.
Methinks someone is a tad jealous of George hanging on to his looks better.
June 5th, 2008 at 11:52 amWay better, Vern. Rupert’s personal low point was hosting a Victoria’s Secret underwear show about 6 years ago. He pretended to find a stray pubic hair, and he popped it into his mouth. Complete lack of class.
June 5th, 2008 at 12:09 pmGenius assessment of the now-pitiful Mr. Everett, Mizz Candy.
You’ve hit upon a great new catchphrase for pointing up hypocrisy: Calling Dunston. As in, “I called Dunston on that lying bastard George W. Bush for his assessment of the WMD threat.”
June 5th, 2008 at 12:19 pmblobby? is he calling americans fat? if so that may be the only thing he said that makes sense.
June 5th, 2008 at 1:51 pmif my name was rupert i would be bitter too.
June 5th, 2008 at 2:08 pmDon’t take any of it to heart US denizens. It’s just the insanity associated with tertiary syphillis. He caught it from that money-grubbing smack head Paula Yates. Yes, yes I know he’s GAY, yet in his autobiography he claims to have porked the suicide blonde for around 6 years of her marriage to Saint Bob Geldof. Looks like he’s been hitting the botox as well. WANKER!
June 5th, 2008 at 6:13 pmFor those unfamiliar with the term Blobby used to denote obesity and/or lack of intelligence: Mr Blobby was a character on a popular (god knows way) Saturday night show “Noel’s House Party”. Some poor sod desperate to get enough points to join equity would be inside the blobby costume. Mr Blobby was pink with yellow spots and piercing green eyes like that hideous tattoo of Jesus/Tom Cruise posted the other day. He was usually on this really lame “Candid Camera” section of the show squealing “blobby, blobby, blobby”.
June 5th, 2008 at 6:21 pmSo…what…-he porks a women because it’s trendy for gays, likes americans when it’s trendy for Brits (No offense Brit B)and pulls stray pubies from his face! Must be Dunston is running for office!
June 5th, 2008 at 6:22 pmNo offence taken Vern. People like that douche are one of my reasons for not returning to the UK. That and the weather, violent knife crime, football (i.e. soccer) and total shit-for-brains people on both sides of the political spectrum.
June 5th, 2008 at 6:53 pmoh and I almost forgot: Jodie Marsh. She may be the main reason I just signed a new lease on my loft here!
June 5th, 2008 at 6:55 pmThe bitter gourd isn’t as bitter or wrinkly as him.
June 5th, 2008 at 8:07 pmI like him.
June 6th, 2008 at 8:05 amDe Niro, Redford, Keaton, Allen, Pacino may be parodies of themselves but I think most people remember them from at least a handful of good movies. Now Rupert… can anyone remember him from just one such film?
British B - I fully understand your reasons for moving - esp. when it comes to Jodie -_-”
