Wonkette
Here’s your “Friday Fun Video” that has nothing to do with politics, thank GOD. This week, Wonkette videographer Liz Glover is wearing her other hat as BlackBook reporter in New York City for Fashion Week, an event to honor 9/11 with fancy clothes. Liz interviews insane “art film” director and actor Vincent Gallo and asks him, comically, if his leather jacket is “pleather.” Gallo loses his shit and threatens to track down Liz and fuck her up. Ha ha! Liz responds that her father was in ‘Nam, which he was. [BlackBook]

Liz for Veep!
Fashion guys are ass kickers!…. Im going in a corner
BUT WHAT FABRIC WERE HIS SHORTS?
What an asshole. Really.
Will you marry me?
Wow, who knew that Quentin Tarantino was so touchy about the material of his jacket.
Good thing she didn’t ask if it was muslin.
Why would she grovel to that asshole who just threatened her?
We’ve got your back, Liz.
“I’ll track you down and make you wish you were never born.” Bwahahahahahhahahaha!! Oh NOES!! Vincent Gallo is gonna get all in my shit! I’ll never be able to sleep again!
Epic fucking douche. His movies suck too.
Bagglio Ordonez: Yeah, it’s not like she asked him whether he thought his oily skin could be used to end the fuel crisis.
HAHAHAHAHA. What a douche. All his films suck balls. Why does FASHION hate America and allow talentless directors watch fashion shows?
Ten to one odds that shit is pleather. You know it is because he got so bent out of shape about it.
So he threatens her, she kisses his ass… and you guys put it up anyway? Now Liz’s 90 year old dad the Green Beret has to kick the ass of Mr. Warriors Come Out and Play? Stay classy Newell.
Also: “now I’m the bad guy?” A meme is born!
He’s totally a Bush supporter. Seriously.
So it’s leather? Animal killer. Why does he hate cows freedoms?
Seriously. Douche is almost a compliment compared to what I’d call him. Threatening to hunt down and kill someone for airing a video of what you actually said in public? I have no words.
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down! I’ll track you down!
Cogito Ergo Bibo: She’ll be alright…she knows 26 different ways, distinct and personal, to kill as fascist fashionist.
Grr. And I have no closing tags on my italics. My mad interweb skillz are almost McCain-esque.
WOW! Vincent Gallo is really as terrifyingly off-kilter as the character he plays in his film Buffalo ‘66.
Still, a great movie. But Vincent, relax.
What a douche! and Liz doesn’t look ANYTHING like Christina Ricci either!
obfuscator: He’s also a man-whore… literally… he was offering to have sex for money at one point… what a douche
His sole redeeming quality is that he got Chloe Sevigny to suck his cock on film…
grendel: What a Gallo!
I’m just thankful that Vinnie didn’t offer to reenact the ending of Brown Bunny with Liz.
From now until eternity, anyone who sees Gallo on the street should greet him with “Is that pleather?”
grendel: I saw that. Wasn’t sure if it was a goof or what. He was selling his body and his collection of rare movie posters. I also recall him stating a “white chicks only” preference.
Too fucking funny! I was just thinking about him today, what with Ebert in the news and all, and thinking maybe it was time to cut him some slack, since Tarantino’s fucking car movie HAS to be worse than Brown Bunny, right? And he can’t be any douchier, right?
I hope her dad makes a necklace out of his tongue.
This goes against everything I believe in but,
I’m a huge Vincent Gallo fan.
Don’t mess with the Gallo. Seriously.
“Mr. Gallo maintains the right to refuse sale of his sperm to those of extremely dark complexions. Though a fan of Franco Harris, Derek Jeter, Lenny Kravitz and Lena Horne, Mr. Gallo does not want to be part of that type of integration. In fact, for the next 30 days, he is offering a $50,000 discount to any potential female purchaser who can prove she has naturally blonde hair and blue eyes. Anyone who can prove a direct family link to any of the German soldiers of the mid-century will also receive this discount.”
from Vincent Gallo’s sperm-for-sale online store. http://www.vgmerchandise.com/store/pages.php?pageid=4
Ooooh! Kweeepy!
So, he’s not just a defensive ugly guy who makes bad movies, he’s a defensive ugly Nazi? Oooh, sexy.
I imagine that was supposed to be satirical performance art. If so, it managed to suck like most of what he does.
Hm, more like ‘Vincent Giallo’.
Why Gallo being mean to our Liz:
A. He feels threatened by Liz’s sexuality.
B. Fashion Week always leads to cheek-scratching among the “creative types” in the audience.
C. He’s a Republican.
D. Any of the above.
In an 08-22-04 NYT Magazine interview:
“Q: Have you met Bush?
A. I’ve met his daughter, Barbara. Zac Posen, the designer, invited me to his show and said he would seat me next to the Bush girl because I’m a Republican.
Q. Why are you a Republican?
A. If we were going to see a show of Dennis Hopper’s photographs, do you think Richard Nixon or Bill Clinton would be more sensitive to the work? I see Nixon as an intellectual. I consider Bill Clinton a huckster.
Q. There are so few right-wing actors [?] like yourself, now that the generation of John Wayne has died off.
A. I agree with you. It is not an interesting group. But I would rather have dinner with Newt or Dick Armey than with Bruce Springsteen.
Q. Perhaps you can speak at the Republican convention.
A. I would like to. They haven’t invited me yet.”

Am I the only one here who actually owns a copy of Brown Bunny and the movie poster and saw the premiere in New York? or am I really that much of a loser?
Well that explains his Republican affinity.
I’m giving Liz a 100% discount myself.
rmontcal: He’s from the famous jug-winemaking family. Liz loves Carlo Rossi.
The sexual tension is palpable.
Liz, have you seen Brown Bunny? Never crouch down around VG. I wonder, if the event took place today, would she aks if it was made of Muslin.
Next time, ask him if his jacket is half-muslin.
Damn you, Mr. November. Daaaaaaaaamn you!
JadedDIssonance: ManchuCandidate: Damn, you guys beat me to it. Why am I not surprised.
For some reason, I watched The Brown Bunny, and I’m convinced the Chloe fellatio scene was the only reason he even made it.
sezme: Speaking of self-loathing, do those “of extremely dark complexions” include Sicilians?
Vinnie’s molto disturbed.
Who the fuck is that filty vagrant threatening Liz, why is she speaking to him when she should be kicking him in the groin and yelling for the cops, and why has noone set his vermin-crusted pleather jacket on fire yet?
Ebert: (Gallo’s film) The Brown Bunny is the worst film in the history of Cannes.
Gallo: You’re a fat pig with the physique of a slave trader.
Ebert: I may be fat, but someday I’ll be thin and you’ll still have directed The Brown Bunny.
Gallo: [*&@$*#$] I curse you to get colon cancer.
Ebert: The video of my colonoscopy is more entertaining than your movie.
ManchuCandidate: Yeah, really. I’m curious. What was the rest of the movie about?
grendel: Yes he is, and he even deigned to say that even women who have teh ginger hair and teh black can have his services. Oh, and he said Roger Ebert looks like a plantation owner becasue he said The Brown Bunny sucked.
Republican values at work.
LOL !!! Hilarious. Crispin glover is crazy.
sezme: thanks for link! I hope it’s free shipping.
This is the best post this week. A tiny escape from the palinpalooza .
Gallo makes music, too. Go to warprecords. (spam bitch!)
sezme: Well Ann Coulter and Liz Hasselbeck should have that sewn up!
The more I see of Liz Glover, the more I fall in love with her.
Just like everyone else around here I’m sure.
win
grendel: I thought it was only jerk-off stuff. Letting people watch him choke the chicken in peep shows?
Sussemilch: CLASSIC
Liz is distractingly adorable.
sanantonerose: No, that was the email I sent you… shhh!
Oh, and Liz…should you need an agent, I can guarantee you interviews with humans instead of dogs.
From what we know of Gallo, we can surmise that he’s actually coming onto her here…
GinBomb: I can’t see the video… did he call her a cunt and/or trollop? That’s the Repug mating call, ya know…
sezme: Sussemilch: I bet Chloe Sevingny goes through a gallon mouthwash every day just trying to feel clean again.
Watchreader: Yes, the queue forms to the left.
ZOMG!! I was at this fashion show — cos I’m an elitist — and I spotted little adorable Liz and was going to go up to her and say…hmm, what? Hi, I’m an anonymous commenter on a blog you contribute to? Yeah, there was nothing that didn’t scream LOSER about that so I just looked on from afar.
Liz’s off - putting sense of general sweetness led Mr. Pleather to believe she was mocking him. This leads me to believe that he is mocked a so often he automatically assumes that anyone talking to him is mocking him.
Plus, Liz was the bigger person for apologizing for huwting widdle Vinnie’s pwecious feewings by being sooooooooo mean! Humph!
Vin obviously didn’t see the video of Liz handling that dog at the CNN cafe. Hi-YA!
Is that the guy that ate 23,000 Big Macs?
One question, was she talking about his jacket or his skin?
he is an honest to god NO TALENT ASS CLOWN! i mean did u ever watch Buffalo 66? of course you didn’t and nor should you.
Does Liz mean “kill” in the actual (stab stab) sense, or in the Jim Morrison/ Anais Nin (Sex=Death sense? Either way: 26 different ways? Rowr…
Who the fuck is that dude? I know of Liz, so she must be more important. Also, Liz looks like the type of girl who could get guys to beat up other guys. She needs to start using that power.
paolaccio: Hey, Liz got cut off while she was saying that she knew 26 ways to kill a man with her bare hands.
Gallows can eat my dingleberries. And his wine sux. Just another nancy-boy with low self-esteem. Hope Liz’s pops napalms his whole village!
He’s such a douche nozzle. For a while he was selling his sperm for a million bucks– he obviously was undercharging. Genes like that are hard to come by.
Track you down and make you wish you were never born?
Too many movie scripts, not enough reality, you fucking self-absorbed C-list cocksucker.
Liz is a lover, not a killer.
Um, fuck vincent gallo Liz. what the fuck are you doing apologizing to that human lizard for? Good call with the strike against his vanity, but you should have gone farther and asked him if he was a Jonas Brother.
word up girl…shower using tea tree oil soap…it’ll kill any residual cooties…
Wow. God forbid the man who wrote and directed a movie called The Brown Bunny (which for some odd reason was not porn) would feel especially defensive about his manhood.
you rock liz. keep up the hard hitting journalism.
Any fucks with Our Liz, and one of the “Mr. Sparky Family” that live in the gun safe in my closet is going to get very, very angry.
Say, “Mr. Sparky, Jr.,” i.e., the Remington 870 Express with the 18 1/2 inch barrel.
Yes, yes, I know it’s not the biggest, hardest black thing that Mr. Gallo has had shoved up his ass.
But it might be the last . . . .
(Liz: When in doubt, kick him in the kneecap. You could go for the groin, but I doubt he has a dick to damage.)
Gesh.
What a dork.
rmontcal: I was thinking the same thing. I supposed she appeared edgy for a second, but as soon as she started groveling, she looked retarded. Was she so hard up for z-list celebrities to talk that she couldn’t pull herself away from this Mickey Rourke redux and find someone else to poke fun at?
Das Storminator: Someone who knows 26 ways to kill a man with her bare hands doesn’t get cut off by some Viggo Mortenson wannabe, AFTER attempting to placate him with, “I’ll cut that part out.”
I perceived alot of sexual tension betweeen them
herpezhilton: I’d say she just doesn’t take him seriously. She’s being really patronizing there at the end. And the video was posted, with the “mean” part left in. It’s fucking fashion week, she’s not there to be a hard nosed reporter, but get fluff coverage of a fluff event. Gallo just tried to wave his dick around.
Das Storminator: “Gallo just tried to wave his dick around”?
“Dick”?
You mean, as in “penis”?
As in implying that Gallo is a . . . well . . . man?
Oh.
Hmmm.
Are you sure about that assessment?
Anyway, assuming Gall is — in fact — male, “he” should reserve his “dick waving” for venues more appropriate for such activities, and with which he is more familiar, e.g., gay bath houses, the glory holes of his favorite clubs, the lock room of his gym.
Threatening young women is never appropriate. Even if she’s coming at you with a knife, rolling pin, or firearm, a True Gentleman’s only recourse is to run away.
If that is not an option due to space constraints, etc., you can pop her once in the chin, but only to disarm.
Threatening just means you’re not a True Gentleman, and not to be taken seriously. The road from there to a severe bitchslapping (or worse) when you make the mistake of threatening a True Gentleman in the same manner is a very short, and very steep, one.
(Hey, I don’t make The Rules. I only play by them.)
(Liz, My Flower: Was your Daddy an A Team member, or one of those B Team REMF hand-holding homos?]
BREAKING: Vincent Gallo is a douchebag.
what a punk bitch - if i have to google who you are you can’t possible be a celebrity so it was an honest question as to whether he was wearing pleather! go liz! keep up the great reporting! what were you doing at fashion week anyway?
Why do we as a society give attention to idiots like this? He honestly ought to be grateful for the publicity. I’ve never heard of him and couldn’t give less of a shit if he gets hit by a bus let alone what he wears. Liz ought to hire someone to break his face for him. I’ll do it for a nickel.
Besides, McCain is up on fivethirtyeight.com and I’m already pissed. I can’t believe people are falling for this Palin shit.
Happy Fucking Monday.
Guess what? He has his own website at vincegallo.com. Judging by his intro page to the message board, he deserves what’s coming to him. Here’s a cut:
“Old messages will be occassionally pruned. However, if I notice any polluted messages, which usually come from bitter, jealous, ugly, poorly-hung men, who are unhappy at work and wished their whole life to be like me, I will remove these unproductive nasty little posts and I would like to say to these twisted queers and half-men, I feel sorry for you. All I ever wanted to do was be me. I hope one day you feel the same about yourself and release yourself from the petty, small-minded urges of polluting this message board and distracting its wonderful members. So go ahead and say whatever you want nasty about me, but know that we will all know by your insults just how small your pecker really is and how miserable your life has always been and how long it’s been since any girl under 500 pounds responded to your cheap lines at the local pub.”
What a twat. He dresses like a fracking wino from the 80s too. If I was Liz I’d have shoved that mic up his ass.
stribs: lol
gopherit: mouthwsh… ha ha
as to original question,,,,
i absolutely loved buffalo 66 … but i didn’t realize it was a documentary.
now i wonder if something is wrong with me for liking it.
gallo is being mean probably because ’some of them want to abuse you, some of them want to be abused’
