Matt Damon On Doing Michael Douglas From The Back
Here's Michael Douglas and Matt Damon as Liberace and Liberace's young piece Scott Thorson on the cover of Entertaintment Weekly. My nipples are not secreting rhinestone water, so that tells me that Michael Douglas looks nothing like Liberace in this picture. This looks more like a butch Walter Mercado throwing a fur coat on a young Regis Philbin wax figure.
Michael and Matt play Liberace and Scott Thorson in Steven Sodbergh's Behind the Candelabra, which airs on HBO in May, and they both talked to EW about what it was like transforming themselves into crystal-encrusted beauties. Matt says that one of the most awkward things he had to do for the movie was to get a weekly spray tan since Scott Thorson wouldn't be seen in a metallic thong unless his skin was the same shade as Liberace's gilded cock ring. The other awkward thing Matt had to do was dry hump on Michael Douglas from the back.
As for their sex scenes together (and trust us, the movie has plenty), Damon and Douglas both say that shooting a moment of passion is always awkward, no matter who’s involved. “The scene where I’m behind him and going at him, we did that in one take,” recalls Damon, laughing. “We do it. Cut. There’s a long pause. And then you just hear Steven go, “Well… I have no notes.”
Well, I'm glad that this movie has scene after scene of Michael Douglas getting pounded by Matt Damon while wearing a Mama's Family wig, because that's exactly what's been missing from my life.


A bedazzled Matt Damon looks like a bedazzled Martina Navratilova.
I don't think Douglas has got Liberace's creepy grin downpat.

America.. fuck yeah!
That's the best Douglas has looked in ages.
The Walking Dead is the bomb! I love that show and HATE Lori. Andrea is an idiot, but never bothered me as much as Lori.
My fave is Rick because I know he won't die. Second to him is Glen. Daryl is a series creation, so I don't know what his future holds.
Morgan is apeshit crazy now. Poor guy.
michael douglas has the sleaziest eyes ever
"This looks more like a butch Walter Mercado throwing a fur coat on a young Regis Philbin wax figure." Oh God, so true! Please remind me to never drink chocolate milk while reading your blog!!!
I am SO seeing this movie!
Long Live Liberace! I hope they do him justice--what a fascinating life.
Micheal Douglas looks good still. Hope he's in better health now.
This is the best thing ever! I laughed out loud when I saw it, and wondered if it was one of those stunt covers. Who came up with that dream casting? And the wigs. The smile on Michael's face, I bet Matt had to do multiple shots to keep a straight (so to speak)face. I thought it was the tiger tamers as well to begin with, but also expect Will Ferrell to pop up somewhere any second in a bad wig. Inspired.
I see Matt Damon has attended the Sue Sylvester School of Hair Charm...

though there really are some that only do one or the other. and there are gays who don't do anal at all and stick to oral and other stuff. But personally, I say why limit yourself especially if you're in a committed relationship, I think I'd get so bored if I only could do one thing for years haha

Yup! I do have a long history of hooking up with "total top" Brawny papertowel looking guys who change their tune under the covers.
Annoying.

I don't get the whole top/bottom thing. I didn't even know there was such a thing until I was looking for something on Craigslist and my curiosity got the better of me and I clicked on Casual Encounters. Mind blown. Anyway, I just always assumed that you just took turns. That there is people that just receive seems odd. I had two gay college roommates and I had no clue. They never really talked about their sex life with me. They just liked to take artsy pictures of my tits.

also kudos for the Mama's family shout out, I remember seeing reruns of that as a kid and being completely baffled by it, honestly not knowing whether or not she was supposed to be an old lady or if was a bosom buddies thing where she pretended to be old

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!
I already ordered HBO specifically for this movie---can not wait!
Btw, thanks for giving the shoutout to my beautiful wig, MK! I was more than happy to donate it to Michael Douglas for the role of a lifetime. My neighbor Iola was so happy sewing the costumes and making the crystal candlebras, too. :-D
Well, I'll bet the neighbors are just LOVIN' this!--Mama.
I was thinking it would be more fun if Matt Damon was the bottom. He has hairy legs and it would be cool to see him holding his hairy legs up in the air if they were fucking missionary style.

Hollywood actors are about 80% gay, yet they always pick certified straight actors to play the queeniest queens of all?
Btw, though there's no physical resemblance I think Kevin Spacey would make an awesome Liberace.
For one hot second I thought they were the Vegas ghey couple who have the tigers.

I dont get the "ghost of Lori" thing because she and Rick were ready to call it quits and couldnt stand each other.
Even though I didn't like Lori (also couldn't stand her in the books) I wish they would have kept her around a little bit longer, to settle things with Rick and to let the Governor finish her off.

I can't stand Rick. At first he was just annoying but lately he's USELESS. I like when Carl told him to step down and let the Dixons be in charge, LOLZ BURN!

For some reason most gay men seem like tops to me unless they look like Perez HIlton, then they are most definitely bottom bitches.

Daryl Dixon! One of my faves! I want Andrea to bite a bullet at the end of this season so bad. Don't like her in the books and don't like her in the tv series. DIE ANDREA DIE!

Join the club. Andrea is irredeemable at this point. She had her chance to do away with the governor, and she chickened out. Time to off her for good (actually, that was back in the first episode).

I never really cared about Daryl in the show til just recently. It was a slow build for me to really love him. I think bcuz I was always Team Shane. But Daryl has become such a bad ass. What he did for Carol, looking for Sophia, the flower thing. Plus he uses a freakin crossbow and rides a bike. If this were the X-Men, Daryl would be like Wolverine. Rick is Cyclops. No one likes Cyclops (I need to get out more lol)

I know! I was STUNNED when Clay Aiken came out of the closet. That same day I also learned that 'water is wet' and my brain was so overloaded with these massive new discoveries that I had to meditate.
Chinchilly: I don't hate Andrea as much as I hated Lori either, and FUCK them for that fucking ghost!!!!

i don't hate Andrea as much as Lori on TWD and actually squeeeee'd when she bit it, can't believe they brought her back. i'm hoping Lennie James (Morgan) will be back, love him. Darryl is so hot i want to buzzcut my hair and dye it grey.

Scott Thorson was only 17 when he took up with Liberace. he sued him for $113 mil when they split and settled for $95K, 2 cars and a couple of dogs. now that's settling.
