R.I.P.

Filed under: R.I.P. > Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Maybe this is what drove him to drink?

Jonathan Rhys Myers was arrested at the airport in Dublin on Sunday and charged with being drunk and a breach of the peace.

Now, Perezcious readers in Ireland tell us that local media is reporting that the actor's mother has passed away.

The Cork City native had been in ill health for a while and allegedly succumbed to a stroke Monday night.

Bummer.

Thanks for giving me a heart attack, Perez. I love JRM. I thought you meant he died. GRRR. Learn to write so that it isn't so damn sensational… espcially in matters of life and death. Classless.

Ok, if you suspect that his mother has passed away, why are you posting a picture of him with cum drawn on his mouth? Kind of heartless.
JimBob says – reply to this

37

Why would you put R.I.P. as the headline, and then a big picture of him?

You made me think he died!

Bad "journalism"!

Mother is the name for G-d on the lips and in the hearts of all children. May Jonathan Rhys Myers mom rest in peace at the right hand of G-d. To quote an old Irish blessing:
May she have been in heaven a half hour before the devil knew she was dead.

May G-d bless Mr. Myers in this hard time. Perez brother, go easy on the man for a bit please.

Poor guy…. The downside of fame is all this paparazzi crap following your every move and judging every little (or big) thing you do or don't do. You can keep the fame and just give me the money.

Maybe this is what drove him to drunk? What? Do you even read what you write before you post it? Almost EVERYTHING you post nowadays has a typo.

Perez is a heartless shitbag says – reply to this

45

You know what Perez, i'm so happy for you that your life is so shit-free that you can smugly show no sympathy for someone who's lost their mother. What, were you raised by dogs or something? YOUR mother must be so proud.
What Happened to Zahara's Real Mom's PIC? says – reply to this

46

What happened Perez? Why did you take it down? Did Angelina call you and threaten legal action b/c we can all see what Zahara's mom looks like - kissing a picture of Zahara???? Hmmmm….she looks pretty loving to me.
Keriann says – reply to this

47

Perez, I normally like you, but why the hell would you scare people with that headline. I honestly thought Jonathan Rhys Meyers was dead, and I didn't like the feeling at all. I guess I like him more than I thought. Please be more responsible. Poor Jonathan. When it rains, it pours.

Pice of shit perez is... says – reply to this

64

I don't know who reads your comments that get posted here or whatever but whomever reads this please let perez know he's a piece of shit. He's a bad example for gay's and a good example for the public that hates gay's that look to him as an good example to be homophobic. I'm tired of reading these irrespondsible false factional post! Perez is a classless, annoying, twisted human being at worse. I read these post for gossip, but hell you can't even do that right. It doesn't surprise me that others that post comments on here are as ignorant and miserable as you are. You are a fat ugly human being inside and out… I guess something happended to you as a child for you to have become so fucked up!
wowsey says – reply to this

65

What an asshole you are. Don't you have a mother? This is my second post on this topic… gonna post this one jerk? Have a fucking great holiday, if you have anyone to spend it with other than media whores who suck your dick. I'm sorry to all the readers for my language, but I now put pp Mario in the same asshole category as Bill O' Reilly. Big fuken' blow hard with nothing intelligent to say. You used to be funny but that was way way long ago. Get off the drugs. You might have a chance, if you do.

Your just a FAT , UGLY (Cheap Shot) FAG Perez. Why the Fuck do you think he's drinking? People lapse, People make MISTAKES. I think Losing his MOTHER VALIDATES his actions these past 2 days.
Joy on the View was right. Your that FAT kid out on the Playground that EveryHoo picked on and you GET OFF on talking SHIT about other PEOPLE. Kinda like a revenge fuck uh? People like you are like ROACHES. No matter how many times you flush them down the Toilet, they crawl right back up. Have some damn respect!
Claude says – reply to this

70

Perez, you should really post a more serious posting. I don't know if your mom is still alive, but if she is and if you have half a concience, you are gonna feel like shit when she dies for having been so callous with your way of presnting his mom's death.

Emla says – reply to this

81

Yeah, "Bummer" that his mother died.

Perez, when your mother dies, I hope someone puts up an ugly picture of you, says "That's what probably drove him to eating all the cheeseburgers", and says "bummer".

You make your money off peoples' pain. Really classy.

Caligulita says – reply to this

84

To repeat what so many others have already said, that's just wrong. Not only did you make it seem like it was Johnny that died, but show a little respect if the man's mother died.
Not that it matters to you, but that's probably enough to make me stop reading this site.
javajunkie says – reply to this

85

you stupid sick fat piece of shit! how disrespectful and fucking insensitive are you to manipulate your viewers into thinking something happened to Johnathon, at first glance it seems like he is the one that past away, thats pretty low you fucking shit for brains blogger, and then to read that it was his mom that died and you are making fun of the situation putting your immature little drawings on photos on Jonathon's for this post is the lowest of lows i have ever seen. It just goes to show you what a selfish immature shit for brains fat loser you are as a person, you don't care about anyone elses feelings and only care about your stupid self, i hope you die soon so i can draw happy faces on your ugly face and shit coming out of your ears…and of course spooge from your mouth, now THAT would be funny to see ha ha

Perez,

If I ever see you on the street, I'm going to kick you in your box and shove you. Not because your are a raging poof who looks like someone barfed on a meatball that's wearing a sweater, but because you make fun of guys' moms… and now one one has passed, to boot.

What a double-vinegar douche.

I used to read your site for mild amusement. Now, I read it to watch you make an absolute prickolicious of yourself.
SOSY says – reply to this

Perez you go to far too often and this time yo are way over the line. At first you were outrageous and somewhat fun. But now that we have seen your massive pink flesh and heard your snot filled mouth all over the TV, we are sickened, disgusted and do not want to be considered fans of a reprobate such as yourself. Your envy and mean spiritedness is not what the world needs. It's full of self loathing and envy and hatred. Look in the mirror, tell us what you see, paint the drool coming out of your own mouth, cause that's what's you do drool over everyone who is talented and good looking. You are a masturbating, snot mouth filled,drooler.

I send my condolences to him and his family and hopefully he gets the help he needs to cope with this and his addictions. I think he is a very good actor and wish him the best. Rest in Peace to his mother.

94

It was very inappropriate to indicate that this actor was the one who was dead. if you want to maintain credibility, please be more forthright, I'm very sorry for his lose, very heartbreaking… Quit trying to manipulate your audience.

WHY WOULD YOU PUT R.I.P and Jonathan's picture up there YOU FUCK. You gave me a scare, I thought he was actually dead for a minute. ASSHOLE.

Um, I did the same thing thinking he was dead for a hot minute, but he obviously isn't. I don't think it was a joke or mean or whatever…
But love for him and his family.

98

i totally get this. i was in ireland, limerick and cork, in the early 80's and cork was pitiful. i swear, like in a bengali way. kids beggin' for money and food. the potato famine was in the 1800's but it's quite possible that that his grandmum lived through that time. for many europeans, irish especially booze was sold by pharmacists and can indeed be medicinal.poor kid, i'd need some legal pain meds too.
Larry says – reply to this

Perez,

Bummer?!?!? Rot in fucking hell you loser. Your time to die will come and nobody will mourn you, you pathetic imbecile. You are a disease upon society and the few thousand freaks who worship you are just as ill. Get YOUR OWN life!!!

Criss Angel Responds To Recording Of Altercation! Says Producer Provoked Him!

There are two sides to every story! Here's his!

In light of the audio recording released yesterday that featured Criss Angel threatening to knock out one of his producers, the illusionist's attorney, Ken Woloson, has released the following statement:

"Criss Angel was in the process of firing Joe Safuto on Wednesday when Safuto became abusive and Criss asked him to leave. Criss decided to fire Safuto in response to repeated complaints from co-workers and other magicians about Safuto's abusive and violent behavior and general ineptitude. Witnesses have attested that there was no physical contact and that Safuto very clearly was the antagonist. The audio released to the media is a snippet of a much longer conversation. We are exploring legal action against Mr. Safuto, including for his defamatory and illegal conduct."

Ouch! Sounds like he means business!

Give the clip a listen again (above)!

It DOES certainly sound like Angel was provoked! But enough to respond like he does?

What do U think?? Who's really at fault here??
