Robert Downey Jr. Diva?
Filed under: Robert Downey Jr.
Robert Downey, Jr. is reportedly acting like a major diva on the set of his latest flick, Sherlock Holmes.
RDJ is allegedly being a prick on set and making people misserable asking for shit left and right.
Sounds like your typical A-lister!
One source says, "Robert had one crew member running around like a headless chicken trying to find a straw after he demanded one for his drink. The poor guy was stressing as they were in the middle of nowhere on an old dockyard, so there was hardly a convenience store nearby."
Well, a freaking straw doesn't sound so bad.
Seriously, some people don't like drinking out of a can, due to the germs and shit. A straw? Puh-lease, get the man his straw already.
The former druggie is also a bit cocky it seems. Not literally, we're guessing.
A source adds that "Robert also has a habit of telling everyone how great his last scene was - just after he's filmed it."
Ok, so maybe he's a bit self-absorbed or what not. But somehow we think the people on set are just a bit too sensitive.
If they want to see a real diva, maybe they should work with Mariah Carey or Beowulf.
We have a feeling they'd love RDJ after that!

I swear that I have read this before..on this site..am I tripping or what??
YOU WISH YOU WERE A DIVA YOU FAT FUCK!
I like if better on dope, fall off the wagon fucker.
Leave it to this former druggie to think he is a diva just cuz he's making more films….
Uh uh i am the only diva… Better recognize..
Re: harrybalsac – I sound like the one on DOPE! HIM better!
SHUT UP FAT ASS!!!
Soooo good you are not that famous nor rich otherwise you'd be even more annoying!
I just don't get his appeal. He was good in Less Than Zero - after that? Meh.
That's Dustin Hoffman!!!
He was more humble when he was coked up. Oh well……
Re: Perez – If they want to see a real diva, maybe they should work with Mariah Carey or Beowulf. IN YOUR MIND MAYBE….
Re: LettyB WISHES YOU A MERRY X-MAS! – HE SOOO WISHES IT!
I'll get the fucker a straw and a …………….!
It all depends on how he asks for things. If he demanded a straw and was being a real prick about not shooting until he got a straw then he is a diva. If he asked politely for the straw but continued to shoot while they looked for one then not a diva.
I liked him better when he was smoking crack,shooting up herion and sucking off transvestites
gee P, got a raging hard boner for this guy? You're at his defense the entire article. It's not ok for people to be a dick.
DUDE, you are such a hypocrite always holding different celebs to different standards. Makes it seem like you want his/her apporval or something.
I don't believe it until I hear more, and even then…STILL LOVE HIM.
I'd be freakin' if I just did a really good scene, too!
I met him at the Tropic Thunder Premiere and he was so nice and genuine…I would run wherever to get him a straw.
he's not much of a man if he can't grow some balls and drink out of the fucking can.
I taught him everything he knows.
Bow to the Mary Janes.
Lick the Mary Janes.
Love the Mary Janes while they walk on your back.
Yes, we believe everything someone from the "set" says, don't we?? Oh well.
i didn't even recognize him.. i loved him on tropic thunder
Yeah, a straw is a resonable request.
If this is true, you can't blame the guy. After all he's been through, he's lucky he's on such a comeback tour. He probably compliments himself because it helps his ego and keeps him going.
DOESN'T HE HAVE A PERSONAL ASSISTANT FOR SH*T LIKE THAT?!?
.
THE PERSON THAT COMES TO THE SET STOCKED WITH STRAWS, AN UMBRELLA, CASES OF EVIAN, HIS SPECIAL TIC TACS AND HAND LOTION, VICODIN, HOOKERS, ETC!!!
Fine actor, but he looks more and more like a dwarf.
He looked like a complete fidget in Iron Man.
Give me a break. I call B.S. on this. As soon as a celeb reaches the top, everyone turns on them. It's seriously crazy.
This is a retarded complaint. There needs to be straws on all film sets or every single time an actor takes a sip of water they would have to get their makeup redone. It's craft service 101 and if someone didn't do it not only should they be made to jump through hoops they should probably be fired. Redoing makeup takes so much time out of a shoot and cost buckets of money.
this guy is the real deal
im positive there is more to the story here.
i read this off the official downey site yesterday.
he may get a little cocky just now but i mean look at the guy
who wouldnt with his last year.
but if you listen to this guy, read the articles he does, like the one in esquire a bit ago, he is the least actor like actor out there.
hes fucking, the shit. real deal
no divva.
wtf that is soo not a diva! perez…u wanking at straws over there!!!? hell i do all that myself.
you're getting really annoying with how many celebrities you hate.
change your tampon and get over yourself.
Dude is completely doped in that picture. Better get to a meeting Downey…
RDJ IS ALLOWED TO BE A FUCKIN DIVA IF HE FUCKIN WANTS TO
hes a great actor who deserves his a list status these days. woooooow he's proud of his work, so shoot him. anyone whos anyone knows that rdj is a cocky bastard and thats whats so GREAT about him
FUCK ALL YALL HATERS
and especially FUCK MARIAH CAREY
Maybe his hep-c is acting up.
Yeah, umm I'm pretty sure it's divo for a male diva
I dont care if he's being a diva… he can keep being one cause he is SEXY
Yeah, I love him still and would still do him in a heartbeat!! Diva or not (though, I'm saying he's not), I think the man is fucking HOT!!
I agree with you, Perez. So what if he wants a straw? It's not that big of a deal. People are just DYING to find a reason for Robert Downey Jr. to be anything less than incredible - which he is.
And so what if he's a little excited about a great scene that he just shot? Let the man share his excitement!
When you do well on something, and you're happy about it, don't you want to share your happiness?
I love him but he looks tweaky. I need my straw! My last scene was good didn't you think it was good? I thought it was good. Where's my fucking straw! Oh is this the wrong trailer?
The straw thing sounded like a bit much, but saying how great each of his scenes was?
SO sounds like something I would do.
No problem with being proud of yourself, haha.
