Hayden Christensen: The Plaid Prince

@#122 - ivyleague
Although I wouldn’t express myself in your language ;-) I totally agree to the things you’ve said concerning their meaning.
This being photographed was NO random event, the paparazzo knew about it for sure. Hayden also seems very smug, probably for “having fulfilled his order well”. Far more famous people than Christensen & Bilson live in L.A. and their pictures are only taken on public events like movie premiers etc. Doesn’t that make you people a little suspicious?

Same impression about his acting in “LAAH” once over here. I also saw a very promising young actor in him - but now not anymore.

@atlqueen
Sorry, but “Higher Ground” was rubbish in your opinion? And you can watch “LAAH” before you go to sleep? But you actually prefer “Awake” and “Virgin Territory”?! And which other movies has he made, as his range is really not that big?
I wonder WHY you ever liked him then, just for being eye candy?! OMG, and that calls herself a fan. :-o

I know I have no right to criticize other people’s taste in general, so I try to phrase it differently: A good acting performance in a movie is VERY important, at least to me and also many other film fans I know. Ts, ts… this can make a movie great or bring it down. The best script cannot hold if poorly acted. Of course there are other factors too but acting is essential.
Just out of interest, what kind of movies do you like? Just big “bada-boom”, lots of action, for your entertainment? Don’t get me wrong, I watch that too from time to time, but I also do enjoy a good drama in between. And even in action movies I prefer believable actors. But hey, that’s just me.

Your a moron because John Shinn himself has stated that he sits outside of Rachel’s house in Los Feliz and then follows her around all day and takes her picture. Its pretty obvious that he was camping outside of her house again and this time followed Hayden in her car. That’s a hell of a lot more believable than your yarn about these pics not being random as if Hayden called the paps to meet him outside of a liquor store.

Don’t tell me… I’ll bet you believe that Hayden is a super secret spy for the Canadian government too!

Question: Why should a paparazzo waste his time waiting in front of a house of an actress who is WELL KNOWN not in town but in Utah on a movie set? And pictures of Christensen alone don’t bring as much attention than the ones of the “fashion queen” or them as couple together. There are surely more lucrative places in L.A. to “camp” for paparazzi. The time they admitted waiting outside her house was around “Jumper” coming out into theaters and the game “are they/are they not a couple” was still on. Things have changed.
So start thinking about what you say before you call other people a “moron” please.
And no, Christensen could never be a spy - as there they need intelligent people. ;-)

is that his dad in some of those pics?

more that were not on DH.
uh oh another woman…lol

@ #134 Yes that is definitely not Rachel Bilson, it´s another woman; but that`s not surprising me, because the man who helped Hayden with his house on the Bahamas (I think it was something against the heat, a new climate …) is the man who made the pictures/photos of Hayden and his brother Tove. This man send the photos to http://www.DH.net (Desiring Hayden.net; if you go to this page there are more photos from the Bahamas). This man also said that Hayden and his brother made parties with lot of girls in Haydens house on the Bahamas.

O. MY. no need to get your Spanx into a hostile twist.

So…..thx for ENLIGHTENING me. BUT, i disagree w/your theory. And here’s why:
Hayden’s popularity is dubious these days..he’s no longer an A-lister, so pix of him don’t command a BIG payday for the papz. Esp. not pix of him alone…if RB wz w/him the pix would be more attractive frm a $$$$ perspective.
So….I DOUBT the papz are camping out & waiting for Hayden to emerge frm his house, & then following him, just for a pic. He’s
not worth the effort & cashwise, he’s not profitable.

I DO believe that Hayden’s PR ppl are so desperate to get him ANY kind of media attention ~ incl. lamea&& shots of him leaving a convenience store, that they’ll orchestrate these so-call’d “candids”. It’s how the hollywood machine worx.

But, you’re entitled to your opinion. And I would never call u a “moron” just b/c I don’t agree w/your opinion.

@130 ~Smilehexe
Thx! U r way kool & looks like we have similar opinion when it comes to HC =P

@141
“And personally, I think Hayden could care less about PR. Its not like he needs to continue working. IMO, acting is less of a profession for him, than a hobby.”

O really, than what is his work, pleasing ratchel? He is all about money, no integrity anymore, he had aspirations when he got SW and after all his failed attempts just wants to make a buck and settle down with the talentless midget who worships him b/c he can;t get anyone better.

i dont think its all about the money either. i bet he has plenty just off star wars. i think he genuinly loves the job. why is he doing commercials? for the $? PR? Celebs have to keep their image out there and so even A list celebs do commercials. this is normal. It gets him out there, makes his resume grow and keep up to date. If you want to get movie offers, it is good to do this.
He has to get himself out there in order to land new projects.just my opinion.

And as long as you choose to make derogatory statements about Hayden, I’ll continue to make derogatory statements about you, if I choose to… Isn’t free speech great!

hayden and rachel are art merchants not artists

@ivyleague
Thumbs up! :-) I think the same way about Christensen than you do.

@person who attacks ivyleague but is too much of a coward to even have an own ID
It is a huge difference if people talk about a celebrity (= HC), no matter if positive or negative, or the way you talk about a private poster over here (= ivyleague in this case). And this has absolutely nothing to do with free speech. Christensen put himself out there all by himself, he chose this profession and the “fame” coming with it. He has to be prepared to get criticized (and he is, as his own words once were: “I knew very well what I signed up to” (talking about the becoming well known when doing SW - BBC-phone-interview, 28. Oct. 2005). So stop pitying that guy. He had years of being worshiped and some girls even called him a “God” etc. - finally it is revealed what a shallow person and bad actor he really is, and now he gets the bill. That’s how this business works. You can fool the masses, but not forever. Don’t worry about him, he’s a big boy. He can take it. Smokes another ciggy probably and laughs about it while counting the money which is still around and gets in by cheap promo spots like the one he did recently.

Oh, and your theory about the paparazzo sucks. Don’t you think that professional stalkers (which paparazzi are IMO) don’t have any contacts at the airports? This guy makes or receives a call and knows when exactly he has to be at the airport. This surely doesn’t take him many hours sitting in a car in front of a house and wait for maybe nothing to happen. I’m sure in this wasted time he already could have caught some other so-called celebrity to get pictures.

I’m not surprised at all to read that both Christensen-brothers made parties - instead of working. Fits to their (new) lifestyle obviously, making holidays to recover from the last holidays. Yet another affirmation how right I am with my assumptions, so thank you. In this time he could have learned how to do some farming instead in case he was really interested in it, you know?

@someone
I totally agree it’s all about the money with him now. He can’t have enough of it to support some people around him and afford the extravagant lifestyle he has developed.

And if somebody says now that I envy him, I don’t. I prefer to lead a life giving me the feeling I actually do something instead of just hanging around. And as we see most times by his grumpy face, it does not even make him happy. (As smugness doesn’t count, that’s not real contentment, but more arrogance.) His money would in fact give him so many different possibilities to do something useful with his time, it’s actually a shame seeing no results at all.
