Mickey Rourke and Marisa Tomei just swung by and I was apparently the first person to alert Marisa to the fact that Mickey said “Melissa” in his spectacularly rambling speech at yesterday’s Indie Spirits. Rourke, who is wearing pictures of his recently-departed dog, Loki, on both his lapel and his necklace, didn’t have much time for questions, and Tomei, when asked how she’s changed in the seven years since she was last here, said, “Wow! You’re asking the tough questions….” She did admit that the ceremony itself seems more low key, but when asked if she’d work the pole again if it meant an Oscar, she just smiled. –Whitney Pastorek

Why would Marisa “work the pole again”? If she was a loser, like the person who wrote this article, then maybe she would. Why do “interviewers” feel compelled to ask such stupid, pointless “questions” to celebrities?
