he really sexually harassed his teacher in front of the entire class. high school doesn’t define your future, but your attitude and the choices you make do. if he keeps acting like this, he’ll end up either in jail or dead. 🎥🍿
SIR PATRICK STEWART (1940-2026)
Before everything else, Patrick was defined by being born and bred in Yorkshire, the proud county in the north of England which he loved to the end. You could hear it in his accented voice and in the stern honesty with which he told you what he thought and felt. Yorkshiremen have no truck with half-truths or avoidance of big issues. He wore his heart on his sleeve, which made him a man to rely on, to admire and in my case, love.
We first met as ambitious young actors with the Royal Shakespeare Company half a century ago but we weren’t in the same productions. My first strong memory was a few years later, meeting him in the street in central London when he told me about an offer to take over a leading part in 'Star Trek'. “But Patrick think of your stage career in the UK. Do you really want to risk—getting lost in Hollywood for years and years?”. Well, he took the risk and thank goodness for us all that he did for not just his devoted Trekkies but film and theatre audiences, who marvelled at his using international celebrity to star in a string of cinema successes ('X-Men' of course) and in great classical plays by Shakespeare, Ibsen, Arthur Miller, Peter Shaffer, Pinter and Beckett at Stratford-upon-Avon, in London’s West End and on Broadway.
America was his adopted home, where he met his adored Sunny who has cared for him through sickness and health, through thick and thin. But he never forsook his origins: and the proudest achievement of the most respected and beloved actor of his generation on either side of the Atlantic, was his appointment as Chancellor of Huddersfield University in Yorkshire.
His farewell performance in 'Avengers: Doomsday' is yet to be seen.

En Mayo de 1996, Jim Carrey presentó "Saturday Night Live" y entró con un sketch que hizo historia. Dos hermanos con un único talento en la discoteca: mover la cabeza como posesos al ritmo de "What Is Love", de Haddaway. Will Ferrell a un lado, Chris Kattan al otro y Carrey en medio, con cara de intento de ligón de discoteca poseído.
Las chicas huyeron despavoridas, pero aquel gag con cabezazos sincronizados dio lugar a una película, "Una noche en el Roxbury" (1998), y sigue estando en el imaginario colectivo como uno de los sketches más endiabladamente divertidos de SNL.
