It was a bit of a 'guys thing' at the Industry Premiere of Russell Crowe's new movie "American Gangster" in Hollywood last night. Olivier Martinez, Jeremy Piven, Denzel Washington and Mel (Malibu) Gibson were some of the attendees. The Premiere reminded me of a report I read from Entertainment Weekly where Crowe admitted to spitting on co-star Denzel Washington's face. "We met on one of those big ass stages at Paramount," he said. "We had to do a scene where there's a piece of cyclone wire fencing between us. I had to be really rabid and weird, and on the first take I'm working myself up a bit and a bit of spit comes out of my mouth." "It weaves itself neatly through the fencing and lands right on Denzel's lip. A glob of white f**king spit just sitting right there. The thing is, he just kept on doing the scene. At the end they say 'Cut' and he's looking at me and the spit's still sitting there. He goes 'I love the taste of warm saliva in the morning'." Nice. That sounds like my worst nightmare.
