Christian-Gate, Day 3: The Family Weirdness Gets Weirder
July 24, 2008 Posted in Buzz
Because no one in the CC office wants to believe that Christian Bale is the type of guy who would flip out at his sister and mother randomly, we’ve been following this story every step of the way (I mean, it’s a matter of possibly kicking him out of our fantasises forever…it’s important). Here’s what we’ve learned this morning:
1) His mother used to be a clown. Legitimately.
2) He may or may not have a short temper (which may be due to the fact that he plays tortured dudes all the time)
3) His sis allegedly asked him for a loan of 100,000 pounds (roughly $200,200), and he said no
4) His mom allegedly insulted his wife, and Bale went all “Oh no you DIDN’T!” on her ass
5) Bale’s family “never wanted to ruin his night” but felt they needed to “teach him a lesson”
Aside from saying what he had for breakfast the day of the blow up, reporters are doing their best to dig through Bale’s past and find some deep, dark poison in his soul or something. Our hypothesis? The guy has a bad temper, has been stressed out for a while, had a giant fight with the fam, and because he’s a celebrity that “row” turned into some kind of Battlestar Galactica implosion in the media.
So yeah, Beautiful Bale isn’t out of our fantasies yet…we just may reconsider challenging him to a rousing game of Battleship…because that sh*t gets heated.

You forgot to mention Heath Ledger in your litany of reasons.
They became good friends during filming their intense scenes. He expected to share this success with Heath. He's been depressed and grieving ever since his death, according to close friends.
The day before their highly emotional work goes public, his family treats him like this? They're lucky he didn't beat the crap out of them.
If all he did was yell at them while trapped by the paparazzi and fans then he should be commended for his self-control. He could easily have gone Russel Crowe on them and he didn't.

Can't blame him. And I'm not even a fan of Christian Bale. It's just that family SUCKS.

You're downplaying an assault allegation because he's cute and famous? Wow, and they wonder why college chicks get a bad rap. I'm all for innocent until proven guilty, but I have serious issues with Proven Innocent Cause He's So Darn Hot.
