Add Kathleen Turner to the list of people who give no f**ks … right alongside one Miss Patti LuPone.
Turner gave an interview in which she tore into everyone from Elizabeth Taylor, Nicolas Cage, Burt Reynolds, the Friends cast, ____, and Hollywood.
She starts off with saying Taylor was all wrong for the role in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? —roles Turner took to Broadway:
“[Taylor] has a bad voice, badly used. In any case, people are after me all the time to do Sweet Bird of Youth, and I’m like, ‘Enough Taylor shit!’”
Then comes Cage and that weird voice he did in Peggy Sue Got Married:
“It was tough to not say, ‘Cut it out.’ But it wasn’t my job to say to another actor what he should or shouldn’t do. So I went to [director] Francis [Ford Coppola]. I asked him, ‘You approved this choice?’ It was very touchy. He [Nicolas Cage] was very difficult on set. But the director allowed what Nicolas wanted to do with his role, so I wasn’t in a position to do much except play with what I’d been given. If anything, it [Cage’s portrayal] only further illustrated my character’s disillusionment with the past. The way I saw it was, yeah, he was that asshole.”
Next up, Burt Reynolds:
“Working with Burt Reynolds was terrible. The first day Burt came in he made me cry. He said something about not taking second place to a woman. His behavior was shocking. It never occurred to me that I wasn’t someone’s equal.”
And as for that other misogynistic tool, _____:
“He goes to shake your hand and with his index finger kind of rubs the inside of your wrist. He’s trying to do some kind of seductive intimacy move. You pull your hand away and go yuck.”
As for the cats of Friends, where Kathleen played Chandler Bing’s drag queen father; she claims she didn’t exactly get a warm welcome from the cast because they were such a little clique and anybody on the outside really didn’t matter to them. When she was asked about their acting talent, she replied:
“I won’t comment on that.”
And then she gave a little gossip, of the Blind Item Variety.
“I’ll give you an example, but you mustn’t include her name. [Very famous Hollywood actress] has played the same role for 20 years. She even looks pretty much the same. She’s probably one of the richest women out there, but I would shoot myself if I were like that, only giving people what they expect.”
Sounds a little Julia to me.
Gosh, I’d love to sit in the shade and sip some tea with Turner.

Too many people bet that true love will win over all when their nearest and dearest have previous (often with them) in the adultery game. Kayte is clearly braindead as you say
ReplyDeleteI love a good bitch who doesn't care what she says and will spill the tea. Kathleen Turner has always been a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason Im glad Brit is still around, is I get to still see Willie Gomez dancing shirtless and watch his videos during concerts. YUM!
Why science has not found a cure for the common cold or the fatal Kardashian whoretiis is beyond me.
Fadi Fawaz...was he not a good enough lay apparently?
Pregnancy lips are NOT a thing . At least the ones on your face.
ReplyDeleteugly fame whores all. to the dumpster fire with them!
ReplyDeleteKathleen Turner rocks!
ReplyDeleteCharlie Sheen was a lot more fun to read about when he was on drugs. Looks like maybe he burned too many bridges back then.
ReplyDeleteHe still sounds better than Burt Reynolds.
Why does anyone WANT to keep up with the Kraptrashians? During pregnancy, my nose got wider and my neck changed color, but my lips stayed the way they've always been (adorably kissable, heh).
ReplyDeleteIf Charlie Sheen still has 10 million dollars (he hasn't snorted it all away?) a minimum wage job should do the making ends meet trick! McDonalds is always hiring.
Blac Chyna looks like someone smacked her in the face with a Wedgewood plate.
I learned that you don't try contacts
ReplyDeletefor the first time while pregnant. :-)
Pregnancy Lips?!? What the?!?
ReplyDeleteFadi who?
ReplyDeleteKelsey G is the new definition of irrelevance.
When did do a guest stint in "The Walking Dead?" I mean, someone needs to tell him to take off his make-up, the gig is over?
Enough with the Kardas bull shit... Shit, I'm almost threw up my taquitos.
Actually, I do believe Kathleen was talking about one of the Friends, there's at least 4 of them...oh, wait, she said actress.
Hate it when 'celebs' can't remember where they're performing. (Here Britney S.) HATE it! Can't they spare 2 secs to check before they go on stage? - or even have someone in front hold up a card. So disrespectful to those who've come and paid.
ReplyDeleteAfter she'd done her bit and gone (prob'ly by helicopter?) there was a big scale rush and jam for those many thousand fans travelling home, such that Brighton railway station had to be closed in the rush, some say for THREE hours, well into the night/morning. I hope they thought it was all worthwhile 'cos I'd have felt pretty sore about it.
