Russell Crowe upset over allegations that he doesn't pay for drinks or tip
What's eating at Crowe: Russell Crowe is none too happy about a play called "Killing Russell Crowe" that just opened in Burbank, Calif., in which he's portrayed as someone who doesn't pay for his drinks or tip. "The reckless accusation that I do not tip drains the last drops of credibility from this desperate plea for attention,” Crowe told the Sydney Sunday Telegraph. "It is with generosity I offer the author this tip: 'Take yourself outside and give yourself two uppercuts. Greeting cards could be your calling.'" But Kehoe says the show is "not about Crowe the individual, but the system that Crowe represents." (The Scoop)

The poster child for bad celebrity behavior a few times. Like when he threatened a British TV producer for cutting of his reading of a poem.

He is a very gifted actor and more than a little bit of a jerk.

3. He is full of himself...but the man's a major talent and mega-hunk.
So you forgive a lot, kinda like the late, great Errol Flynn. :)

At least I do.

And in this case, for a change all he's doing is speaking from a great distance rather than getting up close and physical. :)
