Kerry Loss Causes Law and Order Star to Lose It
The New York Post ^ | 11/11/2004 | Page Six

Posted on 11/11/2004 8:27:27 AM PST by Sociopathocracy

VINCENT D'Onofrio, the star of "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," passed out while shooting the hit TV series yesterday morning — prompting insiders to gossip that the actor is "losing it."

"Ever since John Kerry lost the election, [D'Onofrio] has lost his [bleep,]" said our on-set insider.

"He has been getting into fistfights with people, and when he passed out today, we all thought he was faking it. But then he insisted they call 911."

An ambulance raced to the Queens studio, where paramedics found nothing wrong with the gifted actor, who became a star in 1987 with his searing performance as a misfit Marine in "Full Metal Jacket."

Tensions on the "Criminal Intent" set are running high. "No one thinks Vincent will last for much longer," the insider said.

"He is so hard to work with — a total freak. He constantly complains about the scripts and has held up production a lot."

D'Onofrio, a big Kerry supporter, was said to be devastated over President Bush's re-election. "When PAGE SIX [last week] wrote about 'Law & Order' putting up signs forbidding political discussions on set, it was funny," our source said. "Those signs were put up because of [D'Onofrio]."

About a month before the election, D'Onofrio "insisted" on putting up anti-Bush posters and fliers, "and would attack anyone who disagreed with him," the spy added.

In response, "Law & Order" producers posted signs banning political discussions or anything else that would impede work on set, implying that D'Onofrio had held up taping of the show with his political zealotry.

So let me get this straight...The tension and stress of playing make believe for a huge paycheck is getting to him. For God's sake man. You play house for a living. Quite acting like the world ends when you don't get your way.

Vincent, I truly enjoy the Criminal Intent show and I have always thought that you were an excellent actor (we'll forgive you for The Cell). But you should understand that political winds change - it's not the end of the world. You have a high-paying, relatively easy job to entertain us. Get to work.

I still say that it doesn't take talent to be an actor, acting is just being yourself.

I've wondered how long this trash could stay on the airways. The writers, who I'm sure, make tons of $$$$$$$$, can't even think of original story lines. They steal every headline from the real news, and then put their little "artistic nuances" on it just to make them a bit different. This shows that the TV moguls are tanking. And most of the "stars" are so left wing that they inject their own venom whenever they can. Let this nut go to Canada or where ever he wants. Good riddance

He always struck me as more than a little creepy, though... the few times I watched the show, I kept expecting the perp to turn out to be him.

I'm with you.

Any word on whether Larry Flynt has rolled across the Canadian border?

So, "gifted" actually means "nutcase" in Hollywood lingo - or did I get them reversed?

That was after they removed his head from a very dark, stinky place on his body.

My Husband thought that the Serena Sutherland charaacter on L&O was hot. Her character is sooooooo liberal. By the end of last night's pro-gay marriage show, with her being the main advocate, he kept saying, "Man! She's just ugly. I can't STAND looking at her! I hope they replace her soon!"

Vincent is a fag. He thought Kerry would win and homosexual marriage would become the norm. He is a typical Hollywood low-life.

Is it just me or is there something wrong with that statement?

His latrine meltdown

There were no latrines in Full Metal Jacket. Heads, yes. Latrines, no.

Anyone who can be described as "the gifted actor" has to be Democrat. Why? Because neither actors nor Democrats know much about reality.
