I don’t understand what his point is here. That he’s not famous? That’s why he wasn’t recognized.
Wishful thinking on his behalf. A lot of people, at this point believe the whole bit about Superman and Clark Kent not being recognized as the same person because Clark wears glasses is nonsense. Cavill is trying to convince people (mostly himself, apparently) that by him walking around in New York and not being recognized, that that is proof that Clark would not be recognized as Superman because one wears glasses and the other doesn’t. What he doesn’t seem to want to acknowledge is that maybe he just isn’t that famous or maybe nobody cares.
Bingo (just not that famous).
There’s no there there with this guy. He’s handsome in the classic sense, but he’s also just blah. Cant explain other than he exudes no charisma for me. Some people have it, he doesn’t – it’s watchability….his is close to nil.
I was so lucky to have Christopher Reeves as Superman growing up. First, he was a classically trained actor and second he was highly intelligent. You believed, aside from the exterior which was gorgeous, he really was a ‘super,’ version of man.
When Lois, played by the great Margot Kidder, is caught in the earthquake and her car slips into a crevice and she’s buried alive and dies, the anguish he exudes, and then how he is so full of rage and grief he spins the earth on it’s axis the other way, to go back in time, so he could save her?? Wow. That scene fascinated me….still does. Lois is like la di dah, oh hey Kent what’s up?! Never knowing she had experienced an awful death, and Clark is like, aw not much Lois’…and you see he’s trying to hold it together. Amazing scene. They just don’t make em like that anymore.
I worked on times square and down the block from GMA. We never left the building due to the tourist and celebrity bonanza.
One day I saw the star of Hacked walking down the street wearing the house md t shirt. Yes, he had a whole season on that show but he wanted to be recognized and asked for autographs.
It was sad. It felt like a scene from Soapdish.
God, Soapdish is EVERYTHING. “I look like Gloria f*cking Swanson!”
agree…really, really funny and under-rated movie.
he may have, in fact been recognized, but it’s been my experience that NYers aren’t as gaga over celebs as they are in LA or other places.
it’s more of an “oh, look, it’s so and so” and then they go about their business. of course, I’m SURE there are a few hyper-famous people that it wouldn’t hold true for.
like, Paul McCartney, Jolie, etc.
There’s some great videos of Paul McCartney walking around NYC; the man is so good at celebrity he should teach classes. No drama, no dumpster diving, no hat pulled down to his neck like Leo. He just keeps moving, anyone recognizes him he gives them a smile, maybe a quick handshake or wave but keeps his pace and never falters. Seriously he should win an award for it. 😉
love me some Paul…!
there’s a semi-famous actor who lives in my area, and he drove by me once while I was sitting at a stop sign…I was so surprised to see him that I pointed and did a bug-eyed, jaw drop look. He saw it and did the same thing – slowed down and pointed and gave me an “OMG!” look. it was funny!
Yeah, I lived in NYC for awhile, and I think the attitude is a little different there. I’d almost say that people are still a little gaga, but don’t want to be too visibly so because it’s uncool.
I’m guessing some people probably did recognize Cavill and choose to leave him alone, others just registered him as yet another cute dude wearing a geek t-shirt, and a bunch of people didn’t see him period because they had other things on their minds.
@doofus: That’s a hilarious response on the actor’s part!
I think he is so cute, but isn’t he the one with the 19 year old girlfriend? That’s too bad, cause he is so CUTE!!
Also, what a HUGE disappointment that Duggar’s story is. So gross, so sad….I was hoping they were gone for good!!
Who is this person.
He claims to play Superman.
🙂
Oh, they recognized him – they just didn’t care.
This. He just isn’t that interesting. He’s not Leo, Pattinson, Pitt , or Cruise, , and he’s never going to be. He just doesn’t pique anyone’s interest.
Pattinson??? You’re putting him on that list with a straight face? Maybe four years ago. Maybe!
Geez, I’m insulted on behalf of overrated celebrities everywhere. 😂
Mia4s, rpatz stans still exist in full force, i’m afraid.
One of these things is not like the other lol 🤔
He created chaos and craziness. I mean, yeah, not so much anymore, but in the day, when it mattered, he brought it for the studio. Henry can’t.
Sparkles brought it for Twihards; everyone else on that list (like them or not) have opened movies to blockbuster numbers on their name alone. At least two still can. Sparkles couldn’t do that if his life depended on it and never did. Cavill on that list would be ridiculous but so is Sparkles!
Oh my gosh, why are you calling him Sparkles and using exclamation points? Is this still a thing? Relax. I just made a comment about actors that have rabid fans. I included him. I see you disagree, but seriously, calm down.
Its NYC there’s not going to be a mob unless there’s an actual event going on. I’ve sat next to celebs in restaurants and everything proceeds as normal
A Real Housewife would get more attention than this.
I love Broad City and I don’t understand this Cavile douche’s appeal at all.
IT’s NYC. Most of us are blase about celebs. I’ve seen several walking around but I’m usually too busy trying to get somewhere to stop and fawn over them. Plus it looks thirsty. Although with Henry, I may have made an exception. But everyone tends to blend over here, even if you are dressed unbelievably try-hard (esp in a place like Times Sq)
This man doesn’t know what he wants. He says don’t ogle him, no catcalling or speaking to him when he’s with his “girlfriend” and now he’s surprised no one recognized him, maybe they did, or didn’t just tired of his off handed remarks, He acts as though this is the first “girlfriend he has ever had in his life. Just give us all a break and keep quiet.
LOL
I’ve seen New Yorkers lose their shit over some celebrity sightings. And it was not just the tourist in town
Am I the only one who finds this funny? i don’t know if people don’t care about him or they don’t mind seeing (semi)famous people on the streets but this is funny, and I he posted it because he obviously thought so.
I think it’s hilarious, honestly. He seems to be laughing at his own failure.
Exactly!!!!! He is just making fun outta Superman X Clark debate. Pll here are so boring!!!
or maybe they read his recent interviews and decided to avoid him.
I’m pretty up on pop culture and I wouldn’t recognize this guy if he fell on top of me
As handsome as he can appear in the right lighting, in just your average photograph he is not at all remarkable looking. It is an interesting phenomenon.
But I tend to think people recognized him and just couldn’t give two.
Any guesses on the Lainey blind? I don’t have any good ideas.
The second one I’m pretty sure is Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk. The first made me think of Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Matthew McConaughey and Lance Armstrong. Those guys were hanging out a lot for awhile. I don’t know? But it’s juicy
I was thinking BC for the 2nd one too.
Tom Cruise and David Beckham
Bradley Cooper ( with Lucky Blue Smith as young boyfriend) and Irina S
I am so pissed about this article about Ryan Coogler and Michael B.Jordan @Lainey Gossip.I am tired of this BS about the Black community being more homophobic than other communities.Every anti Gay group I am aware of was started by White Folks.Every gay person who I personally know has been disowned by their family have been White.Black people may talk about their gay relatives but very rarely do we outright disown them.There are hundreds of thousands of White man on the DL ,it is not unique to the Black community.This Sh## pisses me off how people perpetuate this myth.Homophobia exists in Asian,White,Latino,Black,etc communities.#EndofRant
I really don’t get how someone so beautiful as Henry Cavill was in Tristan+Isolde, The Tudors, and The Immortals could look so bad bulked up as Superman. He has zero appeal now.
I thought the same thing. To me his bulked up body is not attractive. He looks so stiff. That is what I saw when looking at him as Superman. Christopher Reeves was muscular but not overly bulked. Cavill looks uncomfortable in his skin and the same with Ben Affleck. Neither is meant to be bulked up like that. They both look better leaner.
LOL
I kind of like that NYers don’t give a F…also can’t quite get over the dating of a 19-year-old college teenager, ummm, not my biz, but, umm…
That’s because who would think a famous actor like him would stand in the corner just like that.
Dang it! one (long) block from my job, but if he was out and about yesterday there’s just no way i’d be got out there on St. Patty’s.
He really needs to do a closer cut hairstyle now that he’s going bald. That hairline is running away from his face at a sprint.
Now. I happen to find bald men just as sexy as those with hair, and in some cases, much, much more so.
But when a man starts going bald and refuses to change his hairstyle to accommodate, it never goes well.
