Gladiator star Russell Crowe had to be rescued from a bar room brawl by a female karate champion, it was reported yesterday.
Crowe, 38, who is notorious for his hot temper, challenged a group of drinkers in the Mexican resort of Rosarita Beach to a fight after one of them taunted him, British newspaper the Daily Star said.
The movie star looked as if he was set for a beating until his personal trainer, Lourene Bevaart stepped in.
Bevaart, a five-times world karate champion, floored three of the fighters before dragging a sheepish Crowe to safety.
“Lourene punched one guy and pushed a couple of the others to the floor. Russ was lucky she was there,” an insider on the set of Crowe’s new movie Far Side of the World told the paper.
Lucky for everyone no one has taught the idiot how to fight properly. He got ythe tar knocked out of him a few months ago in an English club, in another fight he picked himself when too ****ed to know better.
In Australia he is supposed to have bitten a guys ear partially off no charges pressed as the guy was one of his friends!!
"I’ve had situations where people in the street were acting like they wanted to start something or talk up a little game, and before I had the opportunity to engage them, other people, who are fans, take over. They’re, like, “Wes, don’t even worry about it, I got this.” And they go and handle it. I’m, like, “Wow, I almost feel like a pretty girl!”’ -Wesley Snipes
