An aged and loopy Dustin Hoffman told reporters yesterday at the Cannes Film Festival that the very pregnant Angelina Jolie is due August 19. Hoffman worked with Jolie on the animated film Kung Fu Panda, which apparently gives him the right to go around revealing to the press very intimate details about his co-star's life. Nice one, old man.
Nowadays, with the lines between the music world and the acting world and the fashion world blurring into practical nonexistence, I suppose it's not completely unbelievable that Dustin Hoffman would make a cameo in a 50 Cent video. What does seem improbable is that 50 Cent saw Stranger Than Fiction and decided that he'd like Hoffman to reprise his role for a rap video about romancing ladies. Sorry, but I've a hard time believing that the man behind these lyrics: "I call a square a square and a circle a circle, so if you act like a bitch, I'll call you a bitch and hang up…" is also a man with existential crisis films on his Netflix queue.
