The Curious Case of Blanchett's Bonce
Wed, 02/09/2009 - 16:47 by Metrosexual

Cate Blanchett found herself spurting blood from her head after a co-star threw a phone at her during a performance of A Street Car Named Desire in Sydney.

It's a good thing co-star Joel Edgerton went into acting rather than a profession which requires keen co-ordination skills as he was supposed to throw a 60s-style radio out of a window, instead he threw it into Cate's cranium instead.

A handy witness reports:

"He slipped and threw at her head by mistake...everyone heard the crunch as it hit her."

Cate fell to her knees and blood could be seen spurting out of her peanut. Drama!

She tried to soldier on but the excruciating agony, not to mention rivers of blood, meant the performance had to be cancelled. Chin up Cate, that's the magic of theatre!

  • You both beat me to it - I read this yesterday and wondered how the phone morphed into a radio. It's all a bit "Tales of the Unexpected" for me *cue dancing girl with boa feathers*

  • Stella - that's only when "style definitely SHITS over substance".....

  • I know. I spotted that. It's like an 8 year old telling you a story but the truth isn't exciting enough so they add something in like "So the car broke down - but then we saw a rare type of otter that isn't native to the British Isles." Cate Blanchett has been hit with a phone. Well - that isn't good enough. However - if someone wraps a radio round her cannister - we have a story!

  • Peter - or should I say Sale - if you're happy looking at the braying exploits of megacunts like Price, Katona, Moss and the fucking like, then please go ahead. I'd rather see pics and stories of Blanchett, Depp and several others who are fucking light years ahead of these gross, grubby little shits that we defer to as 'celebs'.

    Next time you're getting bilious about some fuckwit, I might just have to remind you of that. You've hardly changed from the tit we used to wind up years ago, have you? You need to remember there's a world outside your arsehole and fucking Berlin.

  • When style is sitting over substance, is style doing anything dirty and pervy?

    stella ah trois Thu, 03/09/2009 - 12:04

  • So what happened to the phone that got thrown at her in the first paragraph?

    stella ah trois Thu, 03/09/2009 - 12:02

  • Instead...instead? One more glaring error in a long line. Seriously, is HM entirely staffed by retards and dyslexic monkeys? I say again, give me a fucking job.

    And Blart's right, Blanchett is some kind of wonderful.

  • 'physically and intrinsically', you sad cunt!

  • god I wish it were a burger of some sort thrown at her she looks rather emaciated and frail looking the lollypop look is still going strong even with the good actors

  • Yeah but like I said, of her snatch.

  • This is one celeb who is lovely - both physically and intrinsically. She is galaxies away from the scummy levels of Katona, Price, Cole, Geldof(s), Fox, Lohan, Harding and all the other plastic, egotistical and inconsequential idiots we see way too often on here, where style definitely sits over substance.

    More pics and features deffo please!
