Matt Damon Gets Refills for Life

Whit Honea — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 20:58:00 GMT

Matt Damon is a giver. The other day he went to a cafe near his home in Miami and had a cup of coffee. He politely told the waiter(s) that he wouldn't take any photos with them and then he broke a chair on their heads. Oh wait, that's right, this is Matt Damon not the rest of the Hollywood types.

No, Damon drank his coffee, expressed his 'no photos, please' and paid his $5 tab. Then he left a grand tip. Yes, a grand, as in $1,000, 1K, a thousand. He drank his coffee and left $1,005 lighter than when he walked in, and while his wallet didn't notice the difference the waiter sure did.

Are you paying attention to this, Jamie Lynn?

BTW, Matt, I've got fresh French Press going all day long. Just call first.

Matt Damon is the Hare to My Tortoise

Whit Honea — Sun, 25 Nov 2007 19:02:00 GMT

Matt Damon spent the Thanksgiving holiday with his wife's family in Miami. Here he is taking a break while jogging. This is where he falls asleep and I pass him to win the race. I hope he ate a lot of turkey because he'll have to sleep for about 8 hours.

Isn't he cold? It's fall in Miami. It must get down to the low 80's there.

People Think Matt Damon is Sexy and Ben Affleck Knows It: Good Will Hurting

Whit Honea — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 16:17:00 GMT

Matt Damon was named People Magazine's sexiest man. I demand a recount. I know I got at least one write-in vote (Hi, Mom!).

Ben Affleck is full of good will and jealousy. How is the joke on Matt? Well, he was Bourne yesterday...

Says Daredevil, "I've known Matt for 27 years and being sexiest is the only thing he's ever truly cared about... For a guy like Matt, four foot eleven inches, 295 pounds, it's a heck of an achievement.

"Matt has accomplished so many great things and won so many prizes, but, if I know anything, he holds this most dear among them."

He continues with embarassing tales of topless men and dancing. That, my friends, is friendship. Good stuff, lads.

People Magazine Says Matt Damon is the Sexiest Man Alive

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 18:25:00 GMT

Next up: Bourne Hotness? According to People magazine, Matt Damon is the Sexiest Man Alive! I've always wondered how they came up with this title. Did they consider dead guys, too, and then decide that they weren't all that sexy? Were they worried some really hot guy from the 1800's would just keep winning the contest?

Damon, who is married to Luciana Bozan Barroso, said the honor came as a surprise. "You gave an aging suburban dad the ego boost of a lifetime. My 9-year-old stepdaughter now thinks I'm cool - well, cooler." The actor also revealed that pals George Clooney and Brad Pitt, who had each won the 'Sexiest' title twice, had campaigned for his crowning. So that's what guys do when they're not betting on fantasy football.

When Ben Affleck Ditches Family These Smiles Turn to Tears: Jennifer and Violet, a Baseball Story

Whit Honea — Thu, 25 Oct 2007 16:32:00 GMT

Really Ben? You'd rather watch the heartbreak that will undoubtedly arise from the Red Sox in the World Series than spend time with these lovely ladies? You're just going to leave them on the street to fend for themselves while you pound Guinness with Matt Damon and root for guys with ketchup on their socks? That's cold.

I hear you, man. It's the series, I get it. I just had to write that last bit in case my wife browsed through FameCrawler today. Cute kid.

BTW, that headline was wicked awesome, wasn't it?

Matt Damon's Wife Wears the Pants

Whit Honea — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 22:01:00 GMT

Matt Damon's wife Luciana has asked the star "to take a break from work. She saw a pile of scripts, and when I told her they were the movies I was supposed to shoot in the fall, she asked me if I still wanted to be her husband."

Man, isn't she afraid that they'll go hungry? Millions and millions of dollars aren't going to last forever.

I hope she doesn't put the hammer down on Bourne 4 or Ocean's 14.

Another Baby Bourne? Matt Damon Loves a Trilogy

Whit Honea — Sun, 26 Aug 2007 11:04:00 GMT

Luciana Barroso, the wife of Matt Damon, is rumored to be pregnant with her third child, second with Damon. Their two children, Identity and Supremacy, must think a new kid would be the ultimate.

The good news for Bourne fans would be the added financial pressures felt by having another child greatly increase the likelihood of another film in the series. A kid's gotta eat, right?

Matt Damon Gets Inked Like Arthur

Whit Honea — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 19:03:00 GMT

I gotta hand it to Matt, he's a good sport. His episode will be aired on Sept. 3rd. Set your TiVos!

What the hell is Arthur, an anteater?

Potty Training Scares the Crap out of Matt Damon

Whit Honea — Thu, 09 Aug 2007 22:29:00 GMT

Don't worry, that's just mud. I hope. According to a Damon quote in Us Weekly, "I'm not looking forward to potty training. It doesn't look like that's gonna be Isabella's strong suit. Right now, she likes to go to the bathroom primarily on me."

Who doesn't, really? Toilets are so overrated.

Matt Damon Knows Method Acting is for Suckers

Whit Honea — Sun, 05 Aug 2007 20:48:00 GMT

Matt Damon needed to look worn and tired for his latest turn as super stud Jason Bourne. Did he go days without sleep by running from the government and whatever else it is that "serious" actor would do? No. He took it one better. He stayed home and tinkered in reality. He credits the fact that his daughter, Isabella, was born right before filming started on The Bourne Ultimatum, as the reason for his convincing look. Says Damon, ""I look so exhausted... Even if I tried to have a methodical sleep-deprivation look in the film, it wouldn't be as authentic as me being up all night with a crying baby at home."

I really hope his next role requires the same look, and maybe a gray hair or two, because this kids and sleep business, it lasts a while.

Matt Damon Confirms: The Red Sox Tear Apart Families

Whit Honea — Fri, 03 Aug 2007 16:52:00 GMT

The Boston Herald is reporting that Matt Damon would rather go down in history as a famed member of the Red Sox than an actor. He reportedly said this in an interview with People magazine, but I'm guessing that he was only half-joking. If I could go down in history as a famed Yankee rather than the world's greatest writer of celebrity parent gossip, I would really consider it. I would also consider being the world's greatest writer of celebrity parent gossip.

When asked what he would say to his daughter given the possibility, the very real and likely possibility, that Isabella might grow up to be a fan of another baseball team (we know who they meant) he was quick to sever all ties.

“You mean before I disowned her, what would I say?” Damon joked. “There aren’t words for that kind of rebellion!”

Sure there are Matt, they start something like this: Start spreading the news...

Good Will Hawaii: Equal Time for the Damon Family

Whit Honea — Thu, 28 Jun 2007 11:29:00 GMT

Matt Damon, wife Luciana Bozan, and daughters Isabella and Alexia, take a little time away from those pesky Afflecks while vacationing in Hawaii. Not sure who the woman in black is that is edging her way into the shot. Knowing her, my guess would be Naomi Watts, but I may be wrong.

Jennifer Garner and Violet Affleck Could Pass for Normal

Whit Honea — Thu, 28 Jun 2007 11:01:00 GMT

Jennifer Garner, and her lovely daughter Violet Affleck, 18 months, seem about as normal as the rest of us. Well, most of us. They seem pretty good at keeping it real.

This family vacation, with Matt Damon and his family, has allowed for some great bonding with Violet, as well as some excellent playtime on the beach with BFF Isabella, Damon's daughter with Luciana Bozan.

Us Weekly has quoted Garner as saying, "Violet is the most beautiful thing. Just that she exists and I get to hang out with her. There's no one who is more fun."

I know exactly how you feel Jenn, but with my kids of course. Nothing personal. Violet seems swell.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck: Good Will Surfing

Whit Honea — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 18:02:00 GMT

Damon and Affleck are just two guys from Boston that are living the dream. I know there aren't any wives or kids in this picture, but we know they're there.

I spend a lot of time knocking "stars" here, and deservingly so. This picture, however, makes me feel pretty good. Two old friends taking a family vacation together.

It's so normal that it's almost anti-Hollywood.

Good for those boys from Boston, and of course their respective families.

Damon and Affleck: Good Will Vacationing

Whit Honea — Mon, 18 Jun 2007 21:02:00 GMT

BFF's Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, along with the lovely Violet and the all-knowing Jennifer Garner, spent some time together in Hawaii. Damon's wife and kid were there too.

Ben must not be much of a beach guy, judging by the socks and shoes. I'm also guessing he's not much of a 2007 guy, judging by the shorts. Hey Ben, your kneecaps are freezing.

Matt Damon: The Travels of Isabella

Whit Honea — Sun, 10 Jun 2007 11:01:00 GMT

Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana, have been taking baby Isabella all over the place. That's a purse that you can see, but I assume she's in the stroller (Bugaboo Frog, $759) too. Of course she could be off visiting another country, which would make 12 countries in twelve months.

According to Matt, little Isabella is quite the globetrotter, but has slightly more hair than Curly.
