Holy Candy Health Edition: Colin Farrell’s New Ash Water Diet!
February 5, 2008 | Pop Culture
During a press tour for his dark comedy, In Bruges, Colin Farrell couldn’t help leaping to the defense of his other movie, Pride and Glory, which he said has been hurt by New Line’s recent flop, Nicole Kidman’s Golden Compass:
“They pushed it just now to 2009. [A reporter starts to speak, Farrell interrupts] I was going to say it’s not because, there’s this rumor going around that it’s because it’s a mess or it’s a really bad film.
I feel the need to kind of speak up, not from my own end but genuinely for Gavin O’Connor because he wrote and directed it. It’s just a really really strong piece, but I think New Line lost the bollocks on “The Golden Compass,” you know love, and they literally don’t have enough money to market things. “Pride” is a tricky one to market anyways. It’s pretty dark… I’ve seen it. Gavin did a great job and you know, Jon Voight is brilliant in it, and Ed [Norton] is great in it and a really strong cast of supporting characters… It’s a really strong piece.”
But perhaps what is most interesting about this interview, is that Colin kept drinking water from the very same cup into which he was also ashing his cigarette. Mmmmm! Ash water! Is that the new Master Cleanse Diet of the Stars? Just add a dash of cayenne pepper and you’ll look like an Olsen Twin in no time.

He probably didn’t notice because he is high on something, just like the rest of Hollyweird.
