Russell Crowe: Kids and Cigarettes Don’t Mix!

What a gross, unkempt slob.

Brad still smokes, there were pics just a few weeks ago. Maybe he’s cut down, but he definitely still smokes.

Where have you seen pictures of him smoking a few weeks ago? He hasn’t smoked in well over a year

By the way, replacing some actor in some movie does not mean he/she is much better.

Although, I am a fan of Brad Pitt, I would not like to compare his talent to Russell’s. As an actor, both of them are remarkable.

It will be great if everybody stops smoking and very soon but he is outdoor and didn’t smoke when his kids around him. Brad does the same, garden or balcony.

Crowe said he’s a shopaholic and obviously he wasn’t kidding. I think he shops everyday

If you look at the pictures, you’ll see that Russell’s kids are no where near him while he’s taking a cig break. I believe his business associate Bruno has taken the boys elsewhere while Big Russ has a ciggie break. I read an interview in which he said that he never smokes in front of the boys.

But I agree… he’s looking kind of fallow, in an unfortunate way these days.. he’s carrying far too much weight and oh my.. the pulled back long hair does him no favors, tho I’ll forgive him if it’s for a film role.

Russell could exercise and be back to his old self. It amazes me how people go overboard.

most likely getting ready for a movie…smokes…who cares….my parents did…he looks chill on a day with the kids…I don’t always look picture perfect…cheez give the guy a break.

I didn’t know they were making a Mario Batali biopic. Good news, I love that guy!

His kids aren’t even around when he’s smoking. What a stupid post to get attention, Jared. You’re like those ridiculous STAR and INTouch alarmists now.

Anyone who thinks that a chain smoker doesn’t eventually at some point smoke in a way that would visit second hand smoke on his kids is beyond naive.

You think residual smoke doesn’t linger on his body and on his clothes? you think his fingers don’t smell of tar & nicotine? You think his environment doesn’t reek of cigarette? I’ll bet he picks up his kids in his arms wearing the same clothes he smoked in just seconds earlier.

He has been a parent for a number of years now and i fhe’s doing any more than just an occasional cig, he is just being selfish.

Although I’ll give him this, if the drunken, violent episodes have ceased then perhaps this is a lesser evil.

And my god, he looks disgusting. really disgusting. This is so disappointing when you think of his beautiful self that was in LA Confidential and his early works. Even in Gladiator. I always thought he would pull a Marlon Brando - another heart breaking transformation - and I guess I was more right than I wanted to be.

It’s a pity.

I don’t think one can ever compare Russell Crowe to Brad Pitt. Russell Crowe like Johnny Depp, are truly great actors_ doing such unusual parts and putting their entire selves into a role. They are great actors. Brad Pitt has never done anything memorable. He was nice to look at though. I can’t stand seeing him now though since he “hooked up” with that “thing” he is with. He must of had to have some kind of midlife crisis_ she is so totally weird.
I really like Russell Crowe_ truly a great actor. We shouldn’t really be concerned with any of their personal lives though, since we really don’t know actually what goes on in them.

Russell’s hair is for his Nottingham role, but the weight is just Russell. He has always been kind of stocky and chunky and as he he is now 44 he is maybe losing the battle. He will probably slim down somewhat for this next movie.

The smoke does linger in the clothes, 2nd hand smoke is dangerous.

But he is not smoking directly in front of the kids.

Smoking is a hard habit to break.

whatever happened to his Gladiator body.

If he is not a good actor . . . I would surely despise him.
