Quote Of The Day: Adrian Grenier
Adrian Grenier was asked last night by OK! if he was really frightened of Matt Damon. This was his response:
” When I find him, when I see him, I am going to run like hell. He is so scary,”
Adrian is referring to the filming of the public service announcement for Matt's charity, OneXOne, for the season finale of Entourage. In the scene, Matt loses his cool and screams at Adrian's character, Vince. If you haven't seen the episode - it's a must. Matt is in it throughout the entire episode, sort of stalking Vince for a donation check, it's so, so funny!
Adrian said, all kidding aside:
“He’s the sweetest guy. I can’t imagine anybody would’ve bought that whole thing. He’s a great actor, but he’s a nice guy. Anybody that knows better would quickly see right through the joke.”
I think that is truly why it was so hilarious, because it was so out of character from Matt's "Mr. Nice Guy" image.

A thriller about a pair of CIA agents on the trail of certain Weapons of Mass Destruction and a foreign correspondent following their mission. Inspired by Imperial Life in the Emerald City.
Take a look and let me know what you think!
Matt Damon Says Gandhi Is An Inspiration
Matt Damon says Gandhi inspired him to get involved in humanitarian work. The ‘Bourne Ultimatum’ actor - who works closely with Water.org and the ONE campaign - revealed his mother Nancy taught him to help others from a young age, just like peaceful civil rights leader Gandhi. He told Parade magazine:
“When I was a boy, my mom had a magnet on the refrigerator with a little picture of Gandhi along with a quote from him. It said, ‘No matter how insignificant what you do may seem, it is important that you do it’.
“As a child, I was raised to believe that, and to this day I do my best to live it. It’s really powerful when you get to meet the people and shake their hands and listen to their stories.”
The 39-year-old star - whose philanthropic work includes raising awareness about the global water crisis, extreme poverty and AIDS - is determined to ensure his children are also instilled with the desire to give something back to those less fortunate.
Matt - who raises three children, 11-year-old Alexia, Isabella, three, and 14-month-old Gia Zavala, with his wife Luciana - added:
“I can’t think of any more important value to instill in our children than the desire to help others.
“I feel strongly about setting an example for them. Real problems can be solved by the next generation if we instill in them the right values. I’m not a politician, and I don’t want to tell anybody how to live.
“But I must say, all these years later, I still think Gandhi had the right idea. No matter how small the contribution we make may seem, it’s crucial that we all do our part.
“In the future, I know these trips are something we’ll do as a family.”
What a great thing to do together. Inspiring!

Matt Damon And Ben Affleck Are Related
You know how Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have always seemed so close, practically like brothers? Well, they aren't biological brothers, but it turns out they are related to each other.
The New England Genealogical Society says Matt and Ben are tenth cousins, once removed. They are both descendents of William Knowlton, Jr, a bricklayer who lived in the 1600s.

Matt Damon Has A Short Temper?
Warning: there is some swearing in this video, so you might want to be sure not to listen at work or near kids within earshot. :)
I love when actors behave or do something completely out of the "norm"/opposite of their true personality. Matt Damon is rumored to be playing himself on an upcoming episode of Entourage, trying to direct "Vince" (played by Adrian Grenier) in a public service spot for his charity OneXOne.org - which is a charity that Matt is involved with in real life - and he loses his cool. With Jeremy Piven also shown on set, I'd guess that it is for Entourage and not just a prank (or real as some might claim).
It's just so funny because Matt always seems like such a "Mr. Nice Guy". It reminds me of Natalie Portman's SNL skit. (also NSFW)
