Tiny Fey and the Jonas Brothers make the bill, but Iron Man star Robert Downey Jr. takes the title.
Ever since his court-ordered drug treatment in 2001 –- and his marriage to producer Susan Levin in 2005 -– Downey has kept “the bad dog,” as he refers to his darker side, on a short leash. “It’s not about placating the bad dog -– it’s about feeding the good dog,” he says of the struggle. “You still have to feed the bad dog, but only enough so that the ASPCA doesn’t bring you up on charges.”

LOVE LOVE LOVE RDJ!!! It’s great to see he finally got his act together.
Well deserved for sure.
I so ♥ him!!
Glad he has gotten back on track
So he is basically saying that he still does shit to satisfy the “bad dog (btw wtf?)” i dont understand what he meant by that…….
he is? that’s cool, good for him
but he’s not who I expected.. well he is entertaining lol
He’s OK in my book. I recently got around to seeing Iron Man this past weekend though, and I was pretty disappointed. Way, way over-hyped. And this is sort of off-topic, but I’m really looking forward to The Watchmen.
“So he is basically saying that he still does shit to satisfy the “bad dog (btw wtf?)†i dont understand what he meant by that…….”
Lola, I think the term “bad dog” could refer to other so-called “bad habits”, like smoking — which RDJ is trying to kick. It doesn’t necessarily have to refer to drugs. I think Susan Levin made that a condition for saying “yes” to RDJ’s marriage proposal - that he would keep himself “clean”; and seeing as he adores his wife and has seen how much better his life can be without drugs, I don’t seriously think that he still has that particularly bad habit.
I’m so happy for him, and I think he most definitely deserves this particular “accolade”. He’s absolutely phenomenal!
Excellent actor in spite of being derailed by drugs for a long time. Hope is able to live up to his huge potential this time around.
