WHO IS THIS MAJOR MOVIE STAR?

We did NOT recognize this actor who turned up at a Netflix premier this week – and we’ve been writing about him for YEARS! (He’s had a VERY colorful career) Also he happens to be the only movie star who ever bought a Star gossip columnist (me) a drink in an LA club. The second photo shows him SMILING so you will immediately recognize him as Robert Downey Jr. with his hair shaved off. He’s promoting his Netflix documentary called Sr– it’s a tribute to his independent filmmaker father Robert Downey Sr (who died in 2021) and their relationship. Robert Jr made his acting debut at 5 in one of his dad’s movies. The second photo shows Robert Downey Jr, his son Indio, and wife Susan.

  1. I’ve encountered him twice. He was a customer of mine at the Beverly Center, early 90s. He was surprisingly quirky and flamboyantly dressed. I do admire his craft and his massive comeback.

  2. He’s the poster child for nepotism. May be a nice guy but he’s privileged .

    Hopefully his story ends up in Janet’s highly anticipated autobiography chronicling her early years as a hair metal band groupie on the Sunset strip to her career as a famous gossip columnist , her obsession with Amy Winehouse, Meg Ryan, Billy Idol, Vivienne Westwood and the plastic surgery guy from Brazil.

    Hoping she will let treaders virtually tour her mid century modern home from her Laurel Canyon days with Joni Mitchell and Roman Polanski as neighbors!
