You know what you need to be a nationally famous actor or actress? Shit for brains!
Sorry, most of these idiots have the common sense of a six panel door. They are great and memorizing dialogue and turning on the charm for the camera. To bad that have nothing to say unless its scripted for them.
Notwithstanding that, Micheal Douglas is a great actor. Still stupid...but entertainingly stupid.
Biden snarls traffic in Westchester for fundraiser at $4.5 million home of Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta-Jones

President Biden’s campaign fundraiser at the Westchester County home of Hollywood stars Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones caused a traffic nightmare in towns along the Hudson River Thursday.
Westchester County officials closed about a 2-mile stretch of Route 9, from Tarrytown to Irvington, ahead of the 81-year-old president’s appearance at the high-dollar fundraiser.
Other road closures were not announced because of security concerns.
Streets in Irvington were “full of new signage” Thursday, one X user reported, sharing images of barricades limiting roads to “local traffic” and “residents only.”
Government offices in Irvington, including the town court and library, closed at 1 p.m.
“Thanks to Joe Biden, Michael Douglas and Debra Winger for snarling traffic in the Rivertowns today,” one enraged New Yorker wrote on X. “Obviously, your celebrity fundraiser is more important than kids having a full day of school, or me getting milk on Main St.”
The president was in Syracuse prior to the fundraiser, touting $6 billion in subsidies given to semiconductor manufacturer Micron through the CHIPS Act.
After the event, he traveled aboard Air Force One to John F. Kennedy Airport, then helicoptered over to Westchester County Airport before his motorcade rolled during rush hour to Douglas’ and Zeta-Jones’ $4.5 million estate in Irvington.
The fundraiser was held in the backyard of the A-listers’ riverfront home, where about 100 people sat under a tent to listen to Douglas and Biden speak, according to a pool report.
Douglas noted that his wife couldn’t attend the fundraiser because she was filming a new television series in Dublin, Ireland.
“Number 46 must become number 47,” the “Wall Street” actor said, referring to Biden as an “extraordinary, seasoned veteran.”
Biden joked that he had something in common with the Academy Award-winning actor.
“We both married way above our stations,” he said.
Biden told the crowd that he hasn’t been watching former President Donald Trump’s Manhattan hush money trial because he’s been busy “campaigning,” before rattling off a joke that he’s frequently deployed at his 2024 opponent’s expense.
“Just the other day, a defeated-looking guy came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, I’m being crushed by debt. I’m completely wiped out.’ I had to tell him, ‘Donald, I’m sorry, I can’t help you,'” Biden quipped.
The president ripped Trump, 77, for “lying about COVID and telling the American people to inject bleach in their arms.”
“He injected it in his hair,” Biden said.
Fashion designer Eileen Fisher, attorney Rodge Cohen and his wife, Barbara, businessman and venture capitalist Robert Goodman and his wife, Jayne Lipman, hedge fund manager John Shapiro and his wife, Shonni Siverberg, and Jonathan and Judy Siegel were all listed as hosts of the reception, along with Douglas and Zeta-Jones.
Tickets to the event ranged from $3,300 for one person to $100,000 for hosts.
It’s unclear how much the Biden campaign raised during the event.
