Dennis Quaid has had a tremendous thespian career, starring in huge Hollywood hits such as Wyatt Earp, Any Given Sunday, Traffic and The Day After Tomorrow. However if the Internet has it’s druthers, he will now be famous for this epic diva-esque meltdown.
On Monday night, cell phone footage emerged of Quaid losing his goddamn mind on the set of a movie. When one person walks into his line of sight during the shoot, it catapults Quaid into an irrational and angry rant.
“What the fuck! Keep going. I am acting here, and this dickhead wanders onto my set. I can’t even get a line out until Dopey the Dick starts whispering in your ear, and you’re not even watching anymore,” Quaid screams.
But it doesn’t stop there. When someone attempts to calm the belligerent actor down, Quaid scolds him, “Don’t fucking Dennis me.”
Quaid continues. “I am doing my job here. I’m a pro. This is the most unprofessional set I have ever been on. This is horseshit!” To be very honest, this doesn’t seem very professional in any sense of the word.
The 61-year-old actor doesn’t seem to enjoy the company of his coworkers, “I’ve got these fucking zombies over here that I have to look at. I have a bunch of pussies starring at me. This is garbage!” This is just speculation on my part, but I don’t suppose that there was not a group of adorable fluffy kittens in the room glaring at Quaid with love.
Quaid goes out with a bang. “Blow me!” He then storms off the set.
The reviews are in, critics are saying that this is Quaid’s finest performance of his career.
There is no confirmation of which movie this is from, but Quaid’s current project is in post-production and it is titled Truth. It is a behind-the-scenes look at news anchor Dan Rather during his final days at CBS.
There are rumors swirling that this is a Jimmy Kimmel prank. One commenter on Reddit, who alleged to work at Jimmy Kimmel Live, confirmed that the video is a prank, but added nothing to substantiate that claim. The language seems a bit too salty to be a broadcast television prank that would have to be bleeped out.
I’m not sure if this outburst is real or fake, but mental illness is hereditary and his older brother Randy Quaid seems to be crazier than Raoul Duke locked up in a straightjacket inside a mescaline factory.
