5 Celebs Who Could Learn from Their Famous Movie & TV Characters
When it comes to drama in Hollywood, many stars keep their personal lives separate from their on-screen roles. However, we're here to show you just how similar some movie roles have been to these stars' real lives.
In fact, the newly divorced Katie Holmes is currently set to start filming Molly next week in which she plays ... wait for it ... a single mom. What a coincidence!
From the crazy Mel Gibson to the heartbroken Jennifer Aniston, we've pulled out the most ironic quotes that some of our favorite stars have said on-screen. Here are 5 quotes that go hand-in-hand with their crazy love lives:
Jennifer Aniston: 'The Break Up'
Maybe Jennifer Aniston would be more lucky in love if she followed her character of Brooke in The Break Up.
"You know, an art teacher of mine once said, 'Never buy a piece of art that you don't have to have.' You know, don't worry about who the artist is or how much it's worth. I mean, you have to live with it everyday. You have to walk by it everyday. You have to really love it; you have to really appreciate it. It's kind of like picking a mate."
Let's hope she got a good deal with Justin Theroux!
Mel Gibson: 'Tequila Sunrise'
We all know that Mel Gibson's once-awesome life has gotten kind of... messy over the past few years. We'd say this quote he said as Dale McKussic in Tequila Sunrise kind of foreshadowed things to come with his nasty divorce from ex-wife, Robyn in which he lost $425 million.
"The cops want to bust me. The Colombians want my connections. My wife, she wants my money. Her lawyer agrees and mine likes getting paid to argue with him. Nobody wants me to quit... You know they don't want me to quit."
Lindsay Lohan: 'Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen'
Lindsay Lohan played Lola in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen when she said "I lied because I wanted to make myself seem more interesting."
... So, maybe that's why she does all the crazy, illegal stuff like crashing into other cars, driving under the influence and stealing valuable jewelry? Maybe she's really just a bore!
Katie Holmes: 'Dawson's Creek'
She claimed that Tom Cruise was her dream husband as a younger child. However, maybe Katie Holmes should have listened to her tomboy character Joey in Dawson's Creek:
Joey Potter: "For so long, all I've thought about was you, all I dreamed about was you..."
Dawson Leery (James Van Der Beek): "What happened?"
Joey Potter: "I got my dream, and now I don't have anything else."
Sandra Bullock: 'Two Weeks Notice'
We were super upset when our favorite sweet-but-tough actress Sandra Bullock found out her husband (and dirtbag) Jesse James was having an affair. So, maybe she should have taken out the script to Two Weeks Notice, called up the mistress and quoted her character of Lucy Kelson.
"The man you're dancing with is deeply troubled... You're much too young to be trading yourself like a stock on the Nasdaq to a man who will not be remembering your name... or his in the morning, is still married, and recently developed a very suspicious rash. It is 2:16, go home, finish high school and reach your potential!"
