" Dude, where’s my French bottled water?"
2004-01-27
From New York Magazine’s celebrity gossip column, so it’s got to be true.
It appears that man of the people Michael Moore has gone completely J.Lo on event organizers with pre-event demands. Before he’d agree to present an award for the best 30-second anti-Bush ad at a Manhattan MoveOn.org benefit earlier this month, Moore’s handlers insisted that he have a supply of Evian backstage. “Even Poland Spring wasn’t good enough,” says our inside source. “They called up to make sure he would have Evian.”
"Oui! I must ’ave ze French stuff!"
If he starts demanding orange-blossom- scented candles next, we’re going to call for an intervention.
You can’t make this stuff up.

#16  MM has to have his benzine fix before he gets going on his performances, hence the French bottled water.

#15  Interesting post. Moore appears as those he nevers consumes anything containing less than 6 million calories. That slob is giving us fat people a bad name.

#13  seems to leave out facts that don't support his position

He likes to rearrange them chronologically too. The Splice King himself.

#12  I'd always suspected he's simply a populist for the primary motive of gaining celebrity. After all, his arguments are simplistic and he "conveniently" seems to leave out facts that don't support his position. He doesn't want people to think about the issues, he wants people to think he's the hero of the underclass. There was a time I had some respect for him, but that was a long time ago, for a very short amount of time.
