Russell Crowe celebrates Hollywood star with all night drinking session
Seattle P I ^ | May 3, 2010

(P I blog - not a story -

Russell Crowe celebrated the unveiling of his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last month by enjoying an all-night drinking session with his wife.

The Oscar winner was awarded the 2,404th star in Hollywood on April 12 and his plaque was placed on the sidewalk in front of the Kodak Theater, where the Academy Awards are held.

But instead of marking the honor with a lunch, Crowe asked organizers to host a bash for his family - and the "Gladiator" star was still partying with wife Danielle when the sun came up the next morning.

Speaking to British talk show host Jonathan Ross, Crowe says, "We made it into a great day. Luckily for me my kids are old enough now so they got to enjoy the experience... So we had a nice day with them. They usually have a luncheon. We said, 'Well, we'd rather have a p**s-up (drinking session) at night time than a luncheon during the day.' So the studio organized that.

"My wife and I - and it's a long time since we've done this - we were still sitting outside with a vodka in hand at seven o'clock in the morning... That's why I married the girl. So it was fun."

Frankly, that is refreshing these days. I would rather an actor be bollocks up drunk than a political twit. It is more honest to their level of intelligence.

Born in New Zealand in sixty-four
A hot-headed actor named Russell Crowe
He loves to act but he loves one thing more
Fightin’ Round The World

He fights his directors and he fights his fans
It’s a problem no one understands
If there’s two things he loves it’s fighting and
Fightin’ Round The World

Makin’ movies, makin’ music and
Fight-in’ Round The World!
Russell Crowe!

-South Park

But the money quote was:

. . . That's why I married the girl. . . .So it was fun."

I can only hope I do not to hear a rebuttal from Frau Crowe!

face it guys -- his WIFE stayed by his side on an all night bender with vodka to face the morning.

Anyone else have envy?

As you said -- no harm done and I hope he enjoyed himself! If it doesn't happen 3 times a week and results in jail or abuse, then the man is entitled.

Got to love Russel. He is a true badass. My favorite movie of his was L.A. Confidential as Officer Wendell Bud White. GREAT MOVIE!
