Joseph Gordon-Levitt apologizes for "pretty girls aren't funny" comment



"Well, I didn’t quite say THAT, but I did misspeak and uh I’m actually glad you asked me about that ‘cause I was embarrassed uh sometimes the words come out really wrong and um....sometimes the words come out really wrong in front of thousands of people and it’s embarrassing and I do apologize. I think what I was trying to get at was that in our culture girls do get pigeonholed and I was talking about um my co-star in the movie Looper, Emily Blunt, and um I was trying, and failing, to pay her a complement and the fact that she really uh succeeded in avoiding those traps in not getting pigeonholed, even though she is a very good looking young woman, she is so funny and plays such a badass and a strong uh woman in Looper and uh so thanks for asking me about that." (thanks kalie_m

I like him a lot, but it did take him a spell to actually comment on what he said.

However, I know the Dark Knight media blitz takes up ALL of his time, so I'm willing to let this go.

Dude isn't evil.

Mama's Family! holy coincidence

Yes because I'm sure you've never, ever said the wrong thing in your life. Nope, not even once.

He's been acting weird lately, very egotistical and I didn't think he was that type of person but obviously I was wrong.
superhetoric 19th-Jul-2012 05:54 pm (UTC)
they're all that type of person, lbr. i think it's near impossible to be a successful actor/musician with a fanbase and shit and NOT be an egotistical ass
slaughtermatic 19th-Jul-2012 06:04 pm (UTC)
this sad truth.
headswillroll88 19th-Jul-2012 06:24 pm (UTC)
i think it is. like the celebs who stay out of the spotlight when they aren't promoting a project don't seem egotistical.

I've always thought this. I think Steve Buscemi is one of the few people who managed to stay grounded even after becoming wildly famous. He used to be a firefighter in NYC and after 9/11 he anonymously went back to help them clear rubble. There were very few reports on this because he tried to stay low-key about it.

idk I feel like it's huge when a really famous person does something good and doesn't beg for attention.

exactly. It's inevitable. You already start out with the self esteem to believe you're going to succeed, and then when you do, you have people constantly telling you how awesome/hot/talented you are. all the time. I'm never surprised about this kind of thing.
loverelapse 19th-Jul-2012 05:57 pm (UTC)
lol he's always been an egoistical ass, people just know it now.
black_swan87 19th-Jul-2012 06:02 pm (UTC)
he's always been that way
ohsnap 19th-Jul-2012 06:08 pm (UTC)
he went to college with a friend of mine and they were friendly, but everything i have ever heard about him was that he was extremely full of himself. and annoying in class.
winonaforever 19th-Jul-2012 06:09 pm (UTC)
He's always been pretentious.
ashe_frost 19th-Jul-2012 06:35 pm (UTC)
I wonder if it has anything to do with the character he's playing in his current film being such a douchebag on top of his general good-natured pretentiousness
sexyvegeta 19th-Jul-2012 08:55 pm (UTC)
I never stan for anyone because lbr, we have no idea who they are off screen and outside of interviews.

You need to put this behind a cut.
juniorquincy 19th-Jul-2012 05:55 pm (UTC)
aw he seemed genuinely sorry, but it's still an awkward situation because emily looked super uncomfortable at his and the other guy's comments
