This Happens To Brad Pitt On A Daily Basis

Sir Ian McKellen was sitting outside of the theater in Melbourne where he's currently rehearsing Waiting for Godot when a passer-by dropped a dollar coin in his bowler hat after mistaking him for a weepy old hobo. Gandalf LOVED THAT SHIT. And not because it was confirmation that his thespian magic can fool anybody, but because a dollar is twice as much as he makes from theater acting. Bitch actually ate that night.

Ian expressed his joy to the Daily Telegraph, "I hope the Melbourne audiences will be as generous. The dollar coin is now lodged between two drawing pins on the board above my dressing room mirror. My lucky talisman."

Like I said in the title, not a day goes by where Billy Goat Brad doesn't find a few dollars in his pocket from giving souls. How do you think the holy family pays for their fancy ass lifestyle?!

Lindsay Lohan needs to start hanging out at Union Station so she can fill up her booze fund jar. Fuck suing a bitch, panhandling is the way to go.

I don't know about him playing straight people convincingly. Lord of the rings was like The Boys In the Band with dragons. And his relationship with harry potter--you had to cut the sexual tension with a machete. ;)

Thumb tack, ballz.

That top picture looks like Laurel and Hardy: The Wilderness Years.

What the fuck is a drawing pin?

He looks like a confused puppy in that second picture. :D So kewl.

That's funny. That happened to my ultra-hippy friend once. She was sitting on the sidewalk waiting for and this lady tried to hand her a $5. Well, she succeeded;p

I love Ian McKellan. This is funny stuff. If I were him, I would have whipped out a memorable Gandalf line on her like "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!".

I love British actors. They are actual ACTORS not famewhores. Like it' a job for them and they love what they do, you can see by the way a lot of them actually do theater as well as movies. Not like American actors, most of whom can't act to save their lives and definitly not in front of a live audience. They need to be able to to 100 takes and they are just in it for the money

Who is that fine looking peepaw lurking above Sir Ian??? I would still hit it even though he is gay.

"Fuck me running..."

@ruffles

Thanks. there's nothing "queeny' abt Ian. I love waiting for godot too. We did in lit. I have to admit though, i admit that I agreed with ramin on one or 2 pts. I felt the whole article was written really amateurishly. I cant put my finger on it. the logical fallacies maybe. but i do agree, that the actors personal life, does affect our perception of his performance. I wouldnt buy it if lindsey was cast as a neurologist of sth. or if paris was cast as anything other than paris. and he did made a great point of how NPH is great because he is playing a CARICATURE of a straight man. Almost everybody missed that out when they were crowing abt his emmy.

He IS gay and quite vocal about it. I totally forgot about him on my List of Gay Actors Who Can Play Straight And Virtually Anything, and that was unforgiveable.

I could have add Rupert Everett, but the reason that guy is not getting parts is because he's a whiny bitch, not because he's gay.

Setup. Phony. Stupid.

I love Sir Ian. He was a bit annoying circa 2005 when he thought he was qualified to comment on whichever LGBT-related celebrity gossip was on the news but he has gotten over that (or I haven't heard anything about it anymore). And Waiting for Godot is a terrific play.

MK, most likely Lindsay Lohan would be picking pockets in Union Square. She's a thief, not a beggar.

I LOVE Sir Ian Mckellen!

Is he gay? I thought gandalf was or sth. If he is, I love love to shove him in Ramen Setoodeh's face.

I bloody love him. He's such a lovely man, apparently. Talent and humility, younger actors could worse than learning from him.

Let's discuss some of the other people in those pics, shall we? The guy standing next to the bench in the first pic is thinking either, "Bitch don't you know who that is?" or "Where's MY dolla?"

And the guy in the background in the second pic (out of focus) is picking his ass.

P.T.Bull's picture

I remember in the fellowship of the ring movie, gandalf says he has some new weed to smoke with frodo, and somebody in the audience goes "All riiiight".

suckandfuck's picture

My favorite SIR Ian McKellan story is the one where some conservative politician was asking him for an autograph for the guy's son and the SIR spit out "FUCK OFF I'M GAY"

suckandfuck, do us all a favor, and hang yourself. Oh, and your parents should be shot for raising a disgusting pig like yourself.

Damn lady peasant!, where is the Qween of the Scene? or Phoebe Price to pose with McKellen and the bench?

SeH's picture

Sir Ian McKellen is one smokin' hot peepaw! He has that old/sexy vibe like you know he's still got a couple of good f*cks left in him (like Sean Connery.)

I love Sir Ian McKellan. I will bet he did take it as a lucky sign.

Speaking of Lindsay - what, no pics today, she didn't go get all drunk and fall down?? Boring.

he looks like the kinda hobo that eats babies.

He looks dapper as hell even all scruffy. He's so good... I bet that is a great version of Waiting for Godot.
