He drinks as a way to kill off at least part of his liver because he can't find a doctor who will surgically remove part of it.

In a 2002 interview, when asked what she would do if she won an Academy Award, actress Tara Reid said "I would refuse it. Accepting an award would just make it seem as if I think acting is an important occupation. It's not, we're really just hired monkeys jumping around on stage for the amusement of the audience. I mean it's not fucking brain surgery, it's not developing a cure for cancer." When asked if she thought that this attitude might alienate her fans she said "Fuck them. Dumbasses."

When Hollywood producer Jerry Bruckheimer throws a dinner party at his house he puts out a chair that is completely made of papier-mache. In looks it is indistinguishable from the other chairs but, of course, when someone tries to sit on it it collapses. He thinks that this is a great joke. When the chair collapses, he flips a coin and either gives the victim $1000, or kicks them out of his house for allegedly breaking an antique chair.

Actor George Clooney is a well-known prankster on movie sets. But one time his pranks backfired on him. He baked a number of cookies using rabbit droppings instead of chocolate chips. He brought them to the set of Ocean's Eleven and called them "vegan chocolate chip cookies". Actress Julia Roberts was warned about the cookies. She pretended to eat one and get sick and then hired a doctor to convince Clooney that she was suffering from tularemia or "rabbit fever". Clooney was so upset that he donated over $50,000 to the hospital she was being treated in before she let him in on the joke.

Properly treated, human hair can be induced to stretch by over 300%. The treatment to do this is a closely guarded secret of Hollywood. It's used to allow movie stars to change their hairstyles so often. Unfortunately, it also leads to early baldness. There are more human hair wigs bought in the city of Los Angeles than in any three other countries.

Hollywood mogul, Jeffrey Katzenberg, has two days of the year that he refuses to acknowledge for personal reasons. One is August 24th, the day that he resigned from Disney. The other is October 7th, but no one knows what happened then. His refusal to acknowledge these days has odd consequences for those working with him. His year is normal until August 24th, but after that day he insists that the date is always one day before the actual day. This gap grows to two days after October 7th. So anyone planning any type of meeting with him must make sure they know if they are talking about the actual date or not. Katzenberg's calendar resets with the New Year so he is back in sync with everyone else on January 1st. Katzenberg is so powerful in Hollywood that no one has yet challenged him on his annoying calendrical tendencies.

Actor/Director Woody Allen's little-known hobby is dog breeding. He never displays the results at shows, but he is working towards breeding the world's largrest dog. He is not working with large established breeds, such as the St. Bernard or the Mastiff, but instead wants the largest dog to be a mutt, because he thinks that it will be genetically healthier. He started working on this project for three reasons. 1) He wanted a large dog as proctection for him and his family, 2) he had long thought about filming a version of the Sherlock Holmes' story The Hound of the Baskervilles and he was unsatsified with the look of exisiting dogs, and 3) he has always wanted to play God.

Actress Reese Witherspoon has instructed her personal chef to come up with a diet that makes her farts smell sweet. The endeavour has not yet been completely successful, but Reese's farts now generally smell amazingly like a freshly toasted English muffin. Oddly, she hates English muffins and refuses to eat them.

Actor Keanu Reeves lists the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie Commando as being the most personally influential work of art that he has ever experienced. In a 2003 interview, Reeves said "I've seen the movie at least 75 times. It never gets old. It's the first movie that I ever saw that really made me appreciate the magic of the cinematic process, how it can be used to change lives and make them better. And the main character, John Matrix, is great. Since I first saw the movie I have always tried to live my lifes by the ideals that Matrix holds. I have a WWJD bracelet and in my mind I always use John instead of Jesus. Also, I know for a fact that if it wasn't for this movie, I would never have even thought about playing the role of Neo. I read the script for the The Matrix and thought that it was needlessly violent and philosophically confused. But I could never get over the name, and eventually that is what caused me to take the role."
