I can’t shake the feeling that Daniel Craig is a moody curmudgeon. That’s how he always seems in interviews, and I don’t think it’s just my American-ism not being able to interpret when an Englishman is being tongue-in-cheek. I actually think Daniel is sullen and grumpy – that IS his personality. It doesn’t make me less hot for him, although nowadays I want to hatef—k him more than I want to talk to him.
Why was I bringing this up? Oh, right – remember Daniel’s grumpy/funny/obscene Rolling Stone interview? Go here to review some excerpts. When RS asked Daniel about whether or not he’s a jealous, grumpy bastard in regards to his wife, Daniel said: “I’ve always been very good at avoiding fights, having worked in pubs and seen pools of blood everywhere. Actually, the only thing to ever get me in trouble would be someone looking at my girl the wrong way. That always got me going. I still get jealous now, but I don’t get jealous the way I used to. I was in a bar in France once and this guy pinched my girl’s ass, and I flew across the room, kind of lifted the guy up. These days I’m much more happy to have a quiet word with somebody.” So, Daniel admits that he’s a jealous guy, and the one thing that can get him going is when someone hits on his wife?
Daniel Craig, 44, gets shaken and stirred when it comes to other men hitting on his gorgeous wife, actress Rachel Weisz, 42. The normally cool-as-a-cucumber actor is so jealous that it’s even causing a rift in his marriage.
According to our own spy, “Daniel is the nicest guy, but when it comes to his wife, he has huge control issues. He doesn’t want Rachel to go out without him. And if he sees someone flirting with her, he will aggressively tell the guy to back off.”
The insider says Rachel has never given her husband of a year and a half any reason to be jealous and has told Daniel he needs to chill out.
“She says he needs to be flattered when other men hit on her, because he’s the one she’ll be with forever,” notes the source.

I can believe that Daniel gets jealous and possessive, because he just admitted as much in that Rolling Stone interview. The rest of it just sounds like low-rent 50 Shades fan-fiction. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. These days, Daniel and Rachel are my pick for “Hottest Celebrity Couple”. I’m not going to lie, I would love to see their sex tape. And if it has a 50 Shades flavor, then so be it. If I was Rachel (and God, I wish I was), I would flirt with other guys just to piss Daniel off so he would get all mad and possessive. Then again… it would only be fun for a short time. After a few months, it just gets kind of creepy and abusive.

Wowzer…this biscuit tingling…lucky Rachel!
LOL 2 the tingly biscuit!!! Rachel better stop messing with her face, I thought it was Liv Tyler in the 1st pic.
Sorry, but Daniel Craig is boring.
Thank you! I hate his permament half smirk.
The older he gets, the more he looks like an ork. Or a troll doll.
it’s STAR ! when Brangelina don’t break or Aniston is not pregnant,James Bond is jealous!
wow, what a yoda looking man.
this guy and that benedic cumberbath guy should be friends.
Rachel is so hot.
Daniel looks too old for his age sometimes. He still has a nice bod though.
Agree on both counts.
Rachel is gorgeous. Daniel…. well, sometimes he looks very hot, other times he looks like some anonymous middle-aged guy working in a garage. Although there’s only 2 years between them, he looks so much older and tireder than Rachel.
As much as I love her to bits, I think Rachel’s had some subtle tweaking done, and combined with an awesome make-up job/skin routine, she looks much younger.
Also, is it me, or do women tend to respond better to tweaking than men? I’ve yet to see a good Botox job on a bloke.
I’m not sure. If Rachel has had work done, it’s been done very well and very subtly. I’m glad that she resisted what must have been considerable pressure to ‘fix’ her nose too. But whether or not she’s had work done, I think her beauty and youthful appearance are really down to good genes. I bet she’ll also look great 20 years from now. Daniel…. maybe not so much.
yeah, she’s had work done. I’m 36 and had started to get crow’s feet around my eyes. I went for a botox consult and the doctor was surprised to hear my age. Now that I have gotten botox shots around my eyes, I don’t have any wrinkles/creasing. There is no way she’s 42 and not had anything done. I wear sunscreen religiously, so much so that my friends make fun of me and I had crow’s feet at 36. She’s 42. She’s goten at least Botox.
btw, I was nervous about doing Botox but I love the results. and it only cost me $160, much cheaper than I expected.
He, 44, looks his age or would if he wasn’t so thin. She, on the other hand, looks like his daughter. 42? Wow!
I’ve been thinking about this and maybe he just doesn’t look nice in stills and looks better in live action. A bit like Jeremy Renner.
And what’s all this about Rachel’s nose? I think it looks fine!!
As much as I dislike Daniel, I must say I don’t blame him. I think Rachael is soooo pretty. I wish I looked like her (similar to her).
Although some of you are stating she may have had some work done. NOO! She will ruin herself.
They have such sizzling chemistry it just jumps off the computer screen! Hot hot hot.
Rachel is one gorgeous lady, so men will definitely be giving her a stare and a wink. Can Daniel take it? Probably not.
of course he’s jealous and can’t take it, after all he was able to get her while she was with someone else (to whom she was engaged and with whom she had a child) so what’s to keep her from cheating on him if she finds someone she likes better
Daniel can take it, too. Everyone claims on their blog, article, twitter, Daniel Craig is so beautiful in person. So I believe his picture does not do his justice, always photographs badly.
Did anyone see Daniel Craig on Colbert? It was a funny interview and Daniel played along well with Stephen.
No!! And I love both of them!
He came on that show for TGWDT promotion. He played along well with Colbert with hand wrestling 😆 Don’t miss it.
I find his funniness a bit try hard, almost like they rehearsed some jokes with him because he has such a dull and grim personality. I don’t get his appeal anyway, he is such a terribly wooden
actor, who has to rely on other actors to make a movie interesting, because he just can’t pull it off. I hope Dame Judi, Javier and Ben Whishaw got a big chunk of the profits, because they were actually the interesting parts of Skyfall.
Daniel made a few ad-lib jokes, it made Stephen (and me) laugh so hard. Rachel said in TBL interviews she loved Daniel’s personality and have absolute trust in him. If he really has dull and grim personality as you said, she loves that! XD
And I’m so happy I found his giving a lot of sensitive performances in Skyfall. Daniel can create an emotional response, so I’m fully satisfied.
I so agree that Craig is an inferior actor. Very wooden. He looks like a retired accountant or school teacher. Doesn’t ring my chimes, and he is not handsome. I still think that Bond should be deadly handsome, virile and smoking hot.
To Sassy
Too bad for you millions think otherwise.
Daniel’s Skyfall made 1 Billion in BO.
He is largely responsible for reviving an ailing franchise. The producers, especially Barbara Broccoli is adamant on him going on for more Bond movies 😉
It’s actually obscene how hot these 2 are.
True. ‘Obscene’ in the “c’mon honey, the kids are asleep – let’s look at Craig/Weisz pictures” kind of way.
Absolutely, Miss Kiki. They are hot hot hot and I love the Craig curmudgeon. He’s nasty hot.
I’m skeptical about these ‘reports’. Both Rachel and – especially – Daniel are famously private, and I can’t see them confiding in an ‘insider’ who turns around and blabs to the tabloids. And if they did, they wouldn’t remain an ‘insider’ very long.
Totally agree. I’m sure it’s a made-up story based on RS. Daniel always took his ex GF Satsuki with him both at all times and all places — maybe he doesn’t like to be alone. But he’s acting alone in many cases, after getting married. I don’t think he wants power over Rachel at all. I always feel he respects her, her job, her feelings, her opinion.. Maybe he has a policy that allows a person to live freely. This story is a fake, very interesting though.
Totally agree. Also, with Rachel Weisz making campaign for her excellent performance in “The Deep Blue Sea” -Which won the NYFCC for Best Actress and was nominated at the GG-, Daniel is busy helping his wife for her campaign. According to reports, after the premiere of Skyfall, Craig make reunions with AMPAS members and was involved in the Q&A at the SAGs of “The Deep Blue Sea”.
It’s interesting when you read this, because you think Daniel Craig is actually very supportive and really loves his wife.
Yes, Daniel made great exertions in her behalf. I heard from Anthony Breznican (on this year’s Oscar contenders) Rachel’ work in The Deep Blue Sea hasn’t been on the radar of many Academy voters, so that film about a torrid love affair received a much-needed boost. His services must be more valuable than was supposed.
I have to agree with Kaiser. Hottest celebrity couple out! Move over Brad & Angelina, etc. THIS IS IT.
He’s definitely a curmudgeon. He’s looking like a balding gargoyle too (not that gargoyles have much hair to begin with). But Rachel balances it all out. She’s just one beautiful woman.
god, she is perfection.
Rachel is so gorgeous. Love her.
It’s so funny too because Rachel seems very easy-going and chill.
Sorry- although I usually find jealousy and possessiveness childish, in this case it is totally hot. They are one smokin’ pair.
He often admits to his grumpiness.
I agree, they are definitely the hottest couple around, the way he looks at her….sigh.
I agree. He adores her. Look at that last photo. Lucky bitch.
Yes. They are the perfect example of a couple whose body language shows they are obviously madly in love/lust with one another, without them slobbering over each other on the red carpet. They’re confident enough in their love for each other that they have no need to do that. Compare it with Tom Cruise’s cringeworthy shenanigans with Penelope Cruz, or, at the other extreme, George Clooney’s embarrassed, half-hearted pretence with whoever is the red-carpet escort of the month.
Totally buy there is jealousy there they started through infidelity and unlike his ex Rachel doesn’t need him to be relevant. I think it might make the sex hot but if he stays a moody jealous bastard she will leave eventually.
Agree – can’t believe it took this long in the comments for someone to point out they started together as cheaters – no wonder there would be a lack of trust down the road …
He doesn’t seem like he’s a very pleasant person. She must not be either.
I guess you never watched the right interviews. He’s a really funny guy and very down to earth. There’s one thing he could cope not well with: stupid intervier asking stupid questions:then ge gets grumpy, otherwise not so much….watch The Graham Norton Show or Kimmel with Daniel and then tell me that guy is moody (NOT)!
THIS!
Most of them take him for his unsmiling pap pic (how dare he not play nice to the paps!!) and come to the conclusion that he is moody!! NOT. His interviews tell you otherwise. I also believe he is very proud and respectful of Rachel. So he can be a bit possessive. That feeling goes with being in love.
Cannot believe that RS interview where he let his guard down and felt free enough to give an open interview gets twisted into all kinds of nonsense.
STAR is BS.
Yeah, in the interviews of his I’ve seen (on Charlie Rose and The Daily Show), he seemed cool, willing to play along, bright, funny, etc. Obviously, he’s also an actor, and you never know what people are like when you’re not around, but still. Also, if some jackass pinched my butt, I wouldn’t exactly be all that upset if my bf confronted him.
I agree he’s actually very funny. My family is from the same part of England as he is, and we are used to a very dry humour at times. I live in North America, and find that people often don’t “get” it.
You should check out the Comic Relief sketch he did with Catherine Tate. It’s hilarious!
Daniel Craig seems to be in love with his wife . Quelle Horrour!! How dare him.
Hot hot hot.
Id wanna be Rachel.
He could get jealous then we could make up allll night!
He looks like a wax figure in the picture with the tuxedo. Jealous men can make a woman’s life miserable. Rachel is a gorgeous woman.
That kind of a possessive man is hell. No one should put up with that.
Not saying Daniel Craig is like that, but if he is, it isn’t any more acceptable than from any Joe on the street.
It’s funny that people here too scream about feminism, how it’s so great and how women should fight for their rights and the next thing they say that basically a guy is allowed to keep them prisoner at home (as “she’s not allowed to go anywhere alone”) if he’s only hot looking. That’s just such BS.
there is a difference between flirting and pinching your butt. if a guy really does that it is totally ok to get all physical. nothing to do with jealousy, if a man wants to sexually harrass a woman he will have to deal with the consequences.
And if his girlfriend let the other guy pinch her butt Daniel had every right to be jealous.
I fantasize about having wild, passionate sex with Daniel. In my dreams, he looks at me and says “The name is Bond….James Bond” and then he rips my clothes off.
**slowly licks lips**
“He doesn’t want Rachel to go out without him.”??
“he sees someone flirting with her, he will aggressively tell the guy to back off.”??
What a delusion! I often spotted she walks ALONE around NY. And I chatted with her at the after party, but Daniel didn’t seem to be interested in me with her.
Wow! That last photo…look at how they are looking at each other! HOT!
Well, if he wasn’t jealous I’d be worried. His wife is as hot as his Bond on screen sex scenes! So it’s perfectly normal!
Daniel craig can rock a suit like no one else. Damn I wish I was Rachel…. *sigh*
I love them together. I love him as Bond but is it me? His suits were SUPER tight in Skyfall. All those running scenes had me hoping the cloth was blended with lycra. The shoulders were too tight.
That being said, I love him. I love them together. IF he is prone to jealousy (I understand) then she is a lucky woman. But if he CRAZY clingy aka she can not go out alone that is overbearing and slightly scary. But I am taking this story with grain of salt like I ALWAYS do. 🙂
Off topic, but he reminds me a bit of the Sexiest Man Ever Alive; Patrick McGoohan from The Prisoner.
It sounds like from the interview he has always been jealous over the woman in his life being hit on, not just Rachael. He said he’s gotten better but that he handled it much worse when he was younger. That’s how I interpreted his remarks.
Yes. I have read the whole RS interview and that is how I interpreted it too.
He handles his jealousy much better these days.
Cannot believe how his words have been so twisted in some deluded minds.
Considering that they both were just cheating on long time partners, I can see why he is not trusting. Do you think she told her previous boyfriend that he is the one she will be with?
Any proof they cheated on their previous partners?
Satsuki was no match for him intellectually and otherwise. She was way too clingy, having no life of her own, was wanting too much from him. He was smart enough not to make that commitment with SM when he obviously wasn’t in love with her. Darren was cheating on Rachel for years.
Given this how dare Daniel and Rachel fall for each other and make it legal as soon as they could?! How very unheard of behavior from them? *eyeroll*
Yeah, what cheating?
Wow pepper…unless you know all involved personally and intimately, you couldn’t possibly know all this information…all we, the public know for sure is that DC was in a very long term relationship and so was RW…and then they met on a movie set and budda bing, budda boom…they are a couple!!!
@MrsBPitt
Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz have known very well each other for 25 years. They have been good friends since they were around 20 years old. So… Rachel said, “we didn’t fall in love at first sight on the DH set. I really liked the couple, Daniel and Satsuki, but it was a matter of course that they found the right marriage partner.
<3 how Satsuki is dating thst sex and the city guy…hubba hubbs MAJOR UPGRADE!!!!!
I so <3 how Sats upgraded to thst hottie from sex and the city……MAJOR UPGRADED!!!!
@ Jenny
Yeah, Jason Lewis who is a total NONENTITY in Hollywood is a major upgrade!! ROTFLMAO
What does he have on his plate again?
@ Jenny
It’s hardly an upgrade if you went from a multimillionaire to a struggling actor.
Hot damn, she is beautiful.
I think Star magazine misinterpreted what Daniel said in this Rolling Stone interview and they went along with it.
She’s pretty but I don’t think she’s the goddess you lot think she is. And Daniel Craig looks like the kid on the cover of the Mad magazines. I’ll skip their sex tape.
I was watching Clive Owen in I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead a few nights ago and it dawned on me that he would’ve been a much better Bond than Daniel Craig.
I saw The International the other day and I fell on my knees and thanked God that he was not choosen as Bond.
Wow. Fell to your Knees and thanked God? Well for your sake I’m glad he wasn’t cast as Bond. It obviously meant a lot to you. : )
I love these two!
Didn’t their own relationship start by them cheating on the partners they were with?
I guess what goes around, comes around. Meh.
