Christian Bale's Mom Speaks Out, Does Not Use Expletives

Filed under: Anglophilia > Christian Bale

wenn-christian-bale.jpg

Christian's mama is jumping on the Bale Out bandwagon, saying that she hopes now people will understand why she and her daughter filed assault charges against the actor last year.

61-year-old Jenny Bale said that "people might now realise that that is his temper, they might understand a bit more. I wish he hadn't carried this on so long or so fiercely, it was upsetting to hear him."

She described her son as a "perfectionist" who was "clearly very angry" (no shit!) about an intense scene cut prematurely short.

She might have a point, but why did she have to go blabbing to the press about it!

    oh well.



  2. 2

    If she hadn't blabbed, you'd still be looking for something else to print about Bale. You should thank her, stop pretending you're so concerned that she did it.



  3. 3

    Because it's funny.



  4. 4

    Christian Bale is a prissy Diva! Boooo to Christian!



  5. 5

    Word up. Great stuff Perez.



  6. 6

  7. 7

    His mommy took the proverbial dump for him since he's so constipated himself.



  8. 8

    First!!



  9. 9

    American Psycho indeed..



  10. 10

    lol



  11. 11

    all we've learned from this whole thing is that the entire bale family appears to be unstable and shifty. mom, sister and son are all jerks. now if they'd all go away and shut up we'd be happy.



  12. 12

    HE IS SO HOT. I LOVE A MAN WITH ATTITUDE JUST LIKE ME. LIKE FCUUK …. THIS NEWS JUST MAKES HIM MORE HOTTER.



  13. 13

    It's really hard to sympathize with her when she's selling out her own son by blabbing to the highest bidding tabloid. And wasn't this incident like right after she had him arrested? If my mother and sister had me arrested, I'd have pent up anger too.



  14. 14

    Why would you even print the opinion of this woman who has filed assault charges again her son? They obviously have some issues and she'll do anything to make herself look good (and him bad).



  15. 15

    Yeah, Mom should keep quiet. It only makes her look bad.

  16. 16

    No, we don't need mama Bale to say a word. Christian is fuking HOT!!!!!



  17. 17

    I guess now he'll have to go back over there and cuss mom out and push her around a bit. I would love it if he would cuss Mario's chunky ass out and slap him a few times.



  18. 18

    does Cwissy haff temper tantwums often?



  19. 19

    Uh, Mom, you are one of the parents responsible for his character. You are his example. He wasn't just born this way. You've tried to exploit him for money - why do you think he's so angry??

  20. cmax says – reply to this


    20

    what a bitch



  21. 21

    I'd sit on his face and have him say 'fuck' over and over again.



  22. 22

    Filthy Mouthed, Arrogant, Untalented, Bully, abusing some poor working stiff who makes pennies on the dollar compared to this Disgrace To Humanity.
    If the public had any backbone it would abandon this jerk and not put anouther penny in his Selfish, Greedy, Worthless, Pocket. There is no excuse for this Pathetic Abuse of another human being. This is of course just one mans opinion?



  23. 23

    Re: BBBoricua loves Angels & Demons…
    YOUR FOR SURE RIGHT ON THAT



  24. 24

    Re: Boosted Palo – lmao i agree :P



  25. 25

    I guess we NOW understand how he became an angry man…..great mom…



  26. 26

    Hell, why not blab it to the press? He (and the public) pretty much dismissed his mother and sister's claims last year. It took this audio for us to go oh maybe they were RIGHT. He's a douche and if I was his mom I'd have done the same. Disrespecting mom and sis just because they said a few unsavory words about the wifey is uncool.



  27. 27

    Re: mahogany – I totally agree. Wow. He needs therapy.



  28. 28

    because the woman needed to say "I told ya'll so". I don't blame her.
    He must have chewed her and her daughter up worst, cause they called the cops.



  29. 29

    The press really went after her and her daughter. I dont blame her for talking to the press. Maybe they were right, and we were wrong?



  30. 30

    Bale's Mama is becoming the next Linda Hogan! What a ridiculous thing.



  31. 31

    Family members of celebs have an equal right to exist and speak.



  32. 32

    I think it's ridiculous to pick on Christian Bale for his outburst. Yeah, he was obviously pissed… but I know a billion people who get mad when something they're invested in is interrupted. He's an ACTOR. It takes a lot of work, a lot of concentration, to get into a specific character. Whoever interrupted that scene was a flat out MORON and needed to be yelled at.

    Good for Christian Bale. He's talented, and he's passionate. Good for him. People are so stupid.

    The Wrestler director Darren Aronofsky has defended Christian Bale over a taped on-set rant which was recently leaked on the Internet. The Dark Knight star can be heard launching a foul-mouthed tirade against a crewmember on the set of new movie Terminator Salvation.

    But Aronofsky has backed the actor over the outburst and called the four-minute rant, which includes the use of the F-word 35 times, "reasonable".

    He says, "I think he was right. I don't think he was out of line. It is a sacred time between action and cut.

    "Sets are very, very high-powered places where things go awry all the time and emotions are high. People are out there working really hard and exposing themselves, especially actors, and they need to be protected.

    "Although it's never good to lose your temper that bad for obvious reasons, we don't know what scene he was doing. He could have been doing a deeply, deeply intense emotional scene.



  34. 34

    I'D LIKE TO BREAK THIS PRIMA DONAS FUCKING NOSE!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT AN ASSHOLE!!!!!!! ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!! GO FUCK YOURSELF ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!



  35. 35

    Re: lastonestanding – wow. i really appreciate you putting this quote on here! before reading it i thought bale was acting like primadonna / little bitch….but i always appreciate reading about both sides.

    Movie sets are high-energy and highly emotional places where you have to deal with all sorts of normally not even a tiny bit "intense" in the real world events turned into an …over amplified….over caffeinated…under slept….a lot of hurry up and waiting….people screwing around on set when you are trying to concentrate to directors and other highly paid workers who suffer from a God complex.

    As much as you try to maintain your cool and stay focused…..because the numerous takes are killing you….your wardrobe or props keep having issues… some dip shit left their cell phone on and all you can hear is that same ring over and over again….Darren was 100% correct….a set is a place where it is possible for a saint to scream…."FUCK THIS I QUIT!"



  36. 36

    PEREZ
    YOU ASK WHY HIS MOM HAS TO GO AHEAD ON BLAHB TO THE PRESS?
    WELL, ITS THE SAME REASON WHY YOU GO AHEAD AND BLAHB TO THE PUBLIC.
    YOU SHOULD NOT MAKE FUN OF HER FOR IT CAUSE A) PPL TALKING SMACK OF USELESS CELEBS KEEPS YOU IN BUSINESS AND B) HE IS ABUSIVE YOU DUNB FUCK. MAYBE HER SPEAKING OUT WILL PRESSURE HIM TO SEEK HELP, AND SAVE HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTER FROM GETTING BEATS IN THE FUTURE



  37. 37

    Hmm funny thing…..I still love him.



  38. 38

    Perez–She might have a point, but why did she have to go blabbing to the press about it!

    BECAUSE NOBODY BELIEVED HER THAT HE WAS WHACK



  39. 39

    yeah my ma always polished her halo at my expense too. wot great ladies. btw we do know this guy has been working nonstop (espesh with the ridiculously over-promoted Batman) and his friend recently died, right?



  40. 40

    isn't it that way or no way with guys? like, they're either total walkovers, or total psycho bullies?



  41. 41

    This is getting OLD!!!!



  42. 42

    Perez, go for the sequel and imitate his mom this time around.

    The old bag is going to ride his coattails for her 15 minutes of fame as long as she can. Hook her up with Mama Spears!



  43. 43

    If she was so afraid of her own son, she should leave him alone and stay away from him. Isn't that what normal people do? Instead of filing charges, just go away. It sounds like he's a little bitch, but she raised him to be that way. boo hoo hooo. Oops, sorry, still don't l sorry for her. Simple solution, Stay away from him and don't look back. It sounds like all she wants is attention anyway.



  44. 44

    WTF would she know since Bale left her with his father when he was a kid ,and notoriously hates her ,as she just wants money money money…



  45. 45

    who dogs their son out to the press.
    bitchhhhh



  46. 46

    Cuz she's a money hungry biotch! He won't give her any so she goes to the media…and like i said before the guy deserved it…Bale says clearly it was not the dudes FIRST TIME TO FK UP…I'm sure that one scene cost more than the dudes salary in a year and he goes and fks it up…wouldn't you be a pissed! Just sayin'



  47. 47

    He is a very good actor so he better get himself check for some anger management it seems he really needs it and to please change his stinky attitude he may not have many directors asking for him to do more movies…you know being humbles makes you a better person than being an arrogant son of a gun…



  48. 48

    Mothers are supposed to stand up and support their children. Not kick them when they are down, what a self serving biach"a … Maybe she contributed to his angry demeanor by being a shitty non supportive mother.
    Or maybe she demanded perfection from him and that is what drives his anger.
    He is angry for a reason. You are not born angry. I know allot about anger.



  49. 49

    End sentences that pose a question with a question mark not an exclamation point.



  50. 50

    Christen has a "toxic family" and should blame the bean counting PRODUCERS for hiring cheep unproffesional crews to save money for their pockets! I worked with him on 3:10 to Yuma and he was GREAT! He can ride my ass any time…



  51. 51

    Re: Mentalist – You have no idea what went on you judgemental freek…



  52. 52

    i love how his mom is coming to the press about it—the whole reason [so they say] that they got into an argument was because she was asking him for a substantial amount of money and she was insulting his wife….soooo shes a jerk.
    christian bale is awesome



  53. 53

    haha
    love it



  54. 54

    Ok..Bale got a temper…but damn you don't kick a man when he's down…ESPECIALLY famliy…shame on you Mama Bale



  55. 55

    Why is this such a big deal? Sure he has anger problems but he's frickin BATMAN!



  56. 56

    "Being a perfectionist" is not an excuse for "being an asshole".
