batmanbale__opt11.jpg

"Everyone loses their shit on occasions, don’t they? Like, ‘Oh God, what demon possessed me to do that?' My wife gets to live with a variety of men. Some of them she likes, some of them she doesn’t. There are ones people like and others that they say, ‘Man we’re glad you’re finished with that project. You were an asshole’.”

- Christian Bale, during a recent interview to promote The Dark Knight

    I totally get what he's saying. If his family members or friends/peers complain about his personality during shoots..they have to remember that this is his JOB and his craft. Great performers suffer for their art and if people in his life truly love him, they will understand. I don't think he's "crazy" at all - he's gifted.

    The Dark Knight was an awesome movie! R.I.P Heath Ledger he is and will always be an amazing person as well as actor.

    "…with a variety of men. Some of them she likes, some of them she doesn’t". The quote obviously refers to his characters/roles in flicks, not actual men. Give me a break folks! Don't read too much into a /chopped/ quote (by the Sun…really reliable, right)?.

  42. 42

    Awwww ♥ Wait. Did he say something? I was too distracted by his hotness…
    P.S. I agree with cavy.

  43. Tia says – reply to this

    its a quote taken out of context, he was referring to how he gets into character ie: losing 65lbs for a role while not sleeping barely able to move, or when he had to gain the weight back in a short period of time for the first batman he did , all the training etc involved. Obviously when you take on the lifestyle to achieve a certain character that is what happens, and since he goes to extremes- just as Charlize Theron did in monster and who was also quoted as saying she was very depressed during that movie and her boyfriend Stuart was very supportive. The life of a real character actor. The ones that win Oscars. Insulting people is a much easier job, huh Perez?

  44. Suzie says – reply to this
    44

    The Sun badly MISQUOTED a recent interview with him, it might have been in DETAILS mag or Parade. He is TALKING ABOUT HIS FILM ROLES!!! HE'S NOT NUTS, JUST DEDICATED TO HIS WORK!!

    Leave him alone!

    Team Christian!

  45. Amand says – reply to this
    45

    he's a character actor, yall! when he takes on a new role, this style of acting means that it CONSUMES him! look it up– stanislavski's "an actor prepares" its a classic for all yall aspiring

  46. Megan says – reply to this
    46

    Hey at least he takes his work seriously. & it shows, being that he's a great actor. I say leave him alone already. It's not like he's doing anything wrong. Everyone gets moody. Is this really all you have to "gossip" about lately?

  47. 47

    TEAM BALE!!!

  48. Eames says – reply to this

    My wife gets to (live) with a variety of men….Are you sure it's not WORK with a variety of men. Anyway his mother and sister sound Queen and Princess BITCH. Dump them both, don't let you kids near them or they'll tell the police you were fucking around with them too. They sound totally screwed up. Cut your losses and never see them again.

  50. exact says – reply to this
    50

    EXACTLY! PEOPLE ACT LIKE IT IS THE WORST THING IN THE WORLD WHEN A CELEB IS IN A BAD MOOD. SO FREAKING WHAT! EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO A PISSY MOOD

  51. Awake says – reply to this
    51

    So what he has a little temper and may call mom a bitch and push her around a little. He may be a little bi-polar but he hasn't beat anyone yet. Maybe he may need to check into a psych ward for 72hrs to get treated.

  52. Talia says – reply to this
    52

    Way to misquote someone asshole. It's not like this is damaging to his career or anything.

  53. akte says – reply to this
    53

    So how come he said that? This can be translated in many many ways… would love to know what was he talking about or what he was asked about… Perez is not real journalism if you take out of context something so ppl can rant about him… lame Perezito

  54. chica says – reply to this
    54

    poor guy…he's gettin so much crap about allegedly assaulting his mom and sister. first of all, who's gonna trust what his mom (who is a clown, no really, that's her career) says??? and his sister's prolly just a bitch that's jealous of his fame and fortune.

  55. Quinn says – reply to this
    55

    Just as long as he doesn't get on drugs and then kill himself and blame it on the dark role he was playing. I'm reminded of a scotsman who remarked once how he despised method actors essentially because they end up hurting themselves and/or others and all because they take their roles so seriously.

  56. natal says – reply to this
    56

    all i can say is…. daaayuum. he's sexy as hell.

  57. janeb says – reply to this
    57

    so he's blaming it on method acting. He needs to get over himself. He takes himself way too seriously as an actor. It's not even like he's as good as Daniel Day Lewis.

    In addition to being costars of the highest grossing movie released to date, actors Christian Bale and the late Heath Ledger were extremely close personal friends.

    How difficult has THIS week been for Christian Bale do you imagine?

    1 -classic case of jealous mother and daughter who probably tried to get him to give them money
    2-his mum sees her son's success as a reason to cap on her failed career in the circus
    3-sister now "feels" her brother owes her for encouraging him to be an actor
    4-his father (died in 2003) who divorced ex-Mrs. Bale ( wonder why) is no longer around to defend him so mum and sister are trying to get their own
    5-He is the most dedicated actor to his craft and he is tried, he travels around the globe promoting his movie and the paparazzo misquote him in order to boost their sales
    6-Perez I love you!

    makes total sense cause aquarians have a hard time dealing with strong emotions especially frustration and anger - they usually stuff it and blow up just like he's doing.

    Even if it is drugs, just leave the poor guy alone seriously. He must be going through something rough but let him sort it out and I"m sure he'll be fine.

    The "my wife gets to live with a variety of men" quote is a joke he said that pokes fun at all the different roles he's played in his career. Get over it, people! He's not schizo or anything like that! He was just joking around! I still love you Christian!!

    Couldn't care less?Atleast this guy actually has a skill set.He is actually one of the greatest actors of his generation,he is the lead in the movie with the highest gross that as a movie is actually quit good (as feat in the hollywood system) and he get's arrested on the premiere night.I know dumb bitches care more about Kim Kadarshian,Lohan and Hilton but this is actually news so would you please dont post any dumb shit Lanel.

  71. Bored says – reply to this

    He was referring to the way he acts while filimg you stupid teenage airheads, he is a character actor which means he tries to maintain something of the character that he is playing at all times while working so that he can perform better.

    Imbeciles.

    I'm glad he's not making up excuses about his outburst. He's so amazing, and his wife even more so for being tolerant and understanding of him delving so deeply into chracters.
    He's Batman. He can do no wrong.

    That interview was from years ago, before Batman Begins. And it was in reference to the time around filming American Psycho. Perez you idiot.

  76. Curio says – reply to this
    76

    Perez, one wonders why you're so enamored with Christian. Or more, trashing his reputation. Blatantly taking his quote out of context. Hooo. Yeah.

    You want to be a journalist. Yet you blog like a tabloid. (Who you hate on. Self loathing is so sad.)

    Decide what you want to be. Catty is not your color baby. We loved you before "Hater-Perez Bitches… Diva… Squeee!"

    Now?

    Not so much.
