Don’t get in Sean Penn’s way. He’s pissed and rightly so.
Not at us hard workers, mind you, just his fellow gluttonous actors who feel the need to prop up their already sizeable film salaries by doing endorsements with high paying clients who want their beautifully transfixed faces to sell their products.
Yes it is nauseating. Don’t these people have enough already? No they are insatiable money grabbing whores who don’t feel that a $40 million income per year is enough to maintain the lifestyle that they desire.
In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Sean indirectly calls out one actress by her endorsement deal, stopping short of naming the person in question but clearly wanting to.
He said, “People are spending too much time modelling for some f**king clothing company instead of acting, and I resent it. It’s like, ‘Are you going to do the Chanel ad today? I thought you were in the middle of shooting a f**king movie.”
“Just let me know if you mean it. I want to know you’re trying to write the great American novel every time. Fail all you want, but f**king try.”
Is Sean making an oblique reference to Nicole Kidman? Come on, we all know Sean Penn worked with Kidman in “The Interpreter” and around that time she became the face of Chanel.
The guy is absolutely furious and rightly so. Are we to surmise that Ms Kidman was cutting days of filming during “The Interpreter” so that she could shoot her $3.7 million salaried, 30 second commercial she was producing with Baz Luhrmann, for Chanel? A shoot that, let’s face it, she is more capable of being good at. Beautiful dresses, flawless makeup, expensive scent and a photoshopped face, what more could a girl ask for?
But ofcourse we can only speculate.
It appears there are two types of actors in Hollywood. One are actors like Penn, who are utterly dedicated to create something that they have given their heart and soul to, and another are movie stars who happily pimp out their asses to the highest paying bidder by endorsing whatever product they have going, if it happens to be high end, all the better.
It’s a good thing Penn is trying to shame actors into taking their day job seriously. But is it a lost cause? We are talking about Hollywood here, a place which breeds of its own hype, where the very wealthiest stars are not only accepted but also respected and admired.
Good luck trying Sean.
