Robert Downey Jr Gossip
Downey Jr. Guy Ritchie calls him “Rob”. I always thought it was “Bob”. I don’t see him as a Rob or a Bob. I see him as RDJ. You? According to Ritchie: “It seems impossible now that anybody other than Rob could have played (Sherlock Holmes). He thinks like Sherlock Holmes, he’s complicated like Sherlock Holmes, and he can really brawl. Full Story
I’m sorry. How could I have forgotten my RDJ? Your RDJ. Our RDJ. He’s been very, very quiet lately. Arguments for: He’s the coolest cat ever He is FUNNY. He is style. He is charm. He is the best. A sexy motherf-cker if there ever was one Everyone loves a comeback. His has been a spectacular comeback. Full Story
Last night at Hamlet in London, Rachel McAdams was in the audience watching her Sherlock co-star perform on stage. Thanks to Gretchen for the heads up! After the show, Rachel and her companion, a blonde woman, went backstage to visit with Jude. They stayed for a while and then quickly dashed away. There’s a glimpse of her head and a satin pink shirt. Full Story
He’s RDJ. In London. He can get away with the purse. But the pants… I never want to see these pants on a man who brings the quiver. Not only because these pants are usually associated with douchebags and thick chains riding around in tricked out Hondas blasting Flo Rida so loud the ground shakes down the entire block but also because these pants, they bulge in weird places, they catch the light from odd angles, they pinch in the wrong corners, and like a pervert your eyes are always drawn to the groin and then you’re trying to make out penis shapes and this is not what I want from my RDJ.

At Comic-Con this weekend – nine months before the release of Iron Man 2 – Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr came back to the place that started it all. It was at Comic-Con 2007 where Favreau unveiled a rough cut clip of his first film that earned the approval of hardcore geeks everywhere and started the anticipation that led to its surprising success at the box office. Full Story
At the premiere of Orphan last night, Robert Downey Jr accompanied his wife Susan, a producer on the film, on the carpet, totally working a really great hair day. Sexy beast. As you can see, he was easily the star of the night, eclipsing the actual stars of the movie, and while this is usually offside, his presence will probably give Orphan more attention than it would have received otherwise, and all this in support of Susan, with whom he’ll be celebrating 4 years of marriage in August.

It’s not like I’m in any hurry to get older… but so many things happen in the future, and the future can’t come fast enough. Is there a way to do it without aging? Anyway, Iron Man 2 is 9 months away. But already it’s landed an Entertainment Weekly cover with some amazing exclusives. Full Story
It’s GOOP Thursday! Today’s issue: Gwyneth Paltrow’s Barcelona recommendations. This one I care about. Because I haven’t been and have always wanted to go. Finally a keeper instead of recipes and child rearing tips. Click here... Full Story
He spent the weekend at the beach in Malibu, with wife Susan, and his son, surrounded by friends, and of course his lunch pail filled with vitamins and spinach pills. Adorable. Various photos attached of Robert Downey Jr enjoying down time after weeks of shooting the sequel and working out like a motherf-cker. Full Story
At the premiere of The Soloist last night with co-star Jamie Foxx, not the most popular dude these days. RDJ on the other hand is everybody’s favourite, and he turned up the charm last night with his wife, and Catherine Keener by his side, and Halle Berry showed up too, in flipflops and her body poured into a striped dress with curves and an ass and when I see her I’m always reminded of the time Ewan McGregor was caught mid-interview lasciviously admiring her and he was mildly criticised for it but really, can you blame him? The Soloist hits theatres on Friday, will likely not do much at the box office. Full Story
Many of you were traumatised by his high heel stylings this week. Me too. Those lifts, they were a quiver killer. Now… Redemption! Same outfit, same beautifully tailored pants, same sexy beast RDJ, same sly smile, same infectious energy, but now in flat shoes. In casual shoes. Sigh. Hot again. Full Story
What do they have in common? Heels! My bad – I did not look closely at the photos yesterday before posting after viewing them in thumbnail size only before downloading… Many of you emailed to point it out: RDJ is wearing at least 2 inches, if not more. Just like the GMD. I’ve attached additional photos here. Full Story
Iron Man 2 has started shooting – check out RDJ today with an Iron Man lunchbox for the 10 thousand vitamins he takes daily fresh off from celebrating his 44th birthday with Sting and Trudie, GOOP and Chris Martin, Jakey and Reese, and other high profile guests in Beverly Hills. Full Story
RDJ and his son Indio out shopping yesterday at Planet Blue. These pictures, they kill me. His jaunty cap, something about the way he’s wearing his sweats, Indio’s pants, pants only a 15 year old growing up in Hollywood understands – I guess? – and finally… RDJ’s lunchbox. Full Story
Oscar Bond! Daniel Craig’s presence in LA suggests he will be a presenter at the Oscars on Sunday. Oh Academy. We know you were trying to keep the secret, but you can’t expect them not to go out! This is Daniel Craig last night leaving the Women in Film 2nd annual party. A rare sighting without Satsuki… Have I ever mentioned there are Daniel Craig super crazies out there too? They hate Satsuki. Full Story
His usual charming self on the carpet tonight with wife Susan. They were super kissy face, lucky bitch. Seriously, for someone who abused drugs for so long, he’s holding up remarkably well…unlike Whitney Houston. More on that later during Grammy wrap. RDJ carries around a lunchbox with vitamins – no, like, real vitamins not “vitamins” – with him all the time. Full Story
Every year Newsweek puts 6 of them in a room and turns on the video. They interview each other, they discuss their “craft”, they squirm, they show off, they hide, they joke… it’s fascinating. Especially with the current crop: Frank Langella, Brad Pitt, Mickey Rourke, Sally Hawkins, Robert Downey Jr, and Anne Hathaway. Full Story
Even before Robert Pattinson cut it off, there’d be no chance against this. RDJ’s hair can deliver a Shakespearean monologue without rehearsal. It can be bad ass but gentle, sensitive but not limp, heroic but not over confident, RDJ’s hair is personality and charisma and a great soundbite all at the same time. Full Story
Check it – April issue of Men’s Vogue. RDJ on the cover. Yeah baby. He’ll be at the Globes on Sunday too. Nominated for Tropic Thunder for Best Supporting Actor going head to head again the GMD. Have you seen Tropic Thunder? Loved Tropic Thunder. And he was f-cking hilarious in Tropic Thunder. Full Story
Well this is a new Sherlock. Couple of stills from Guy Ritchie’s upcoming Sherlock Holmes movie have been released – RDJ looking like he’s in the middle of a scrap with his shirt off showing off his tight abs. That’s what I’m talking about. LOVE the way his belt sits on his waist. Full Story
