Stallone less vain than he appears









Again, bravo for Stallone.

You assume he is taller than 5 '7, which makes you assume Dolphin L is a giant.

Stallone is quite tough too, he spars and also takes punches during filming because it looks more realistic.

He also seems to be a very affable guy from paparazzi footage I've seen.

I think I've seen Lundgren listed at 6'5", not sure.

I wouldn't necessarily draw assumptions about anyone's personality from how they act in front of the paparazzi, on the red carpet. I think a lot of stars have a public persona which is very much at odds from their real selves. But Stallone definitely has a sense of humor, which counts for something.

I would have guessed Stallone was six foot.

I've seen footage of him coming out of a restaurant and getting into his car and chatting to people while the pap linger around filming him. Some celebrities and movie stars get angry at the paparazzi or even violent and they get strong commenter support for it on YouTube so he could do that without damaging his reputation I guess. He seems friendly to them and people around him. He seems pretty warm and relaxed. Or maybe he is just a really good actor.....

All that very well could be.

If Stallone was an a-hole with a short-fused temper, the steroids would surely amplify his anger and he'd be the cliche "Roid Rage" joke to the whole world.
I don't think public acting can keep that kind of personality defect hidden, especially with today's TMZ/tabloid "journalism", and every idiot with a camera phone hoping for their 15 minutes on youtube.

Good point.

This article ties in with a post you have done earlier in reference to a trolluping sociopathic whore:

Thanks, just read it. Yes, that's reading pretty low.

It's actually worse than that ad that Bush the Elder was lambasted for in which he said that Dukakis was indirectly responsible for a murder in Massachusetts because of his liberal parole system. (Remember Lee Atwater and Willie Horton?) Somehow I think the national media will give this ad a pass since it's being run by a Democrat.
