Gay British actor Rupert Everett seems to spend his entire time bagging out everything lately. The guy sure has a chip on his shoulder, acting movies, the movie industry, homophobia in the movie industry preventing him getting parts and now his latest attack is America and Americans in general.
In a recent interview, he describes Americans as “whiny” and “blobby”.
He goes on:
“I’m totally off the States now. The reaction to 9/11 and then George Bush - really, they’ve got very blobby as a nation.
“When I was a kid, the British were blobby, and you’d go to New York where anything went and everyone was excited and casual and friendly, and you were just dying to get away from this British hellhole where an avocado was the most exciting thing you’d ever seen.”
He also says that Americans have taken on the language of characters from Friends and Sex And The City.
Kind of reminds me of that line from the movie Backdraft. It was something like:
“You see that funny glow that’s starting to blink in the corner of your eye? That’s your career dissipation light — and it just went out.”
