It's pretty common knowledge that Nicolas Cage is a brilliant actor ("Raising Arizona," "Moonstruck," "Adaptation") who has made more than his share of missteps both professionally ("The Weatherman" and "Bangkok Dangerous") and personally (Lisa Marie Presley and some of those hairdo's). So to honor his latest potential misstep ("Knowing") we have compiled a list of eight weird facts about the man and his career.

hollylolly said "my cousin went to the same arts magnet schooh as norah jones *i didn't know this* so when i went home to texas she was flipping through my ipod and randomly exclamed "norah jones is a bitch" and it was just so odd it was funny... apparently she was rude to almost everyone and acted really entitled and basically like a diva who thought she was better than everyone.. lol i mean i don't know people do change but i just though it was funny to see this because everytime i hear her name i always thing "what a bitch" haha "
Chopergirl said "I have always loved her. She has been a very good part of entertainment - I remember when she was in Roots. AND then CHEERS, and then the talking babies with John Travolta. My gosh, we all have problems, and with those come stress eating at times...She is beautiful regardless of what she weighs, and not only physically beautiful, but also beautiful inside. She has had her heart broke just like the rest of us, and struggles like the rest of us....to bad people expect her to be perfect as that is what imperfect people like to see - someone perfect to make them feel better. Projecting their OWN disappointment onto others, in some sick way, makes them feel a little better. That is a terrible post about her. I will watch her show."
Sardonica said "How is she anymore a train wreck than ANY body else, celebrity or not? We all have our issues. She is at least trying to better herself, not trash those around her, or laugh at the misfortunes of others. You're as bad as Perez. YOU are the one that needs to get a life, not her. "
ratt said "Don't the people who read this crap have anything at all better to worry about? Is it REALLY any of your concern what this movie star or that musician is up to in their personal lives? Did any of you useless tabloid bottom feeding twats notice that I used the word PERSONAL? Not likely, because the people that read this stuff don't think anyone has a life that they can't have access to. A word for those who have nothing better to do than concern themselves about others in the spotlight... pathetic."
jesslisby said "rynn phillips needs to get over his self...he is the one whom made his own problems. mabye if he kept his pants on and didn't treat his wife at the time with such disregaurd, he might still have full custody of his children, and a wonderful wife..look what you traded down for. but bravo to reese...look who she traded up for."

What people do in their lives its their business..just because he is an actor( so what, that's just a job).. He is human.. let us not forget he too has emotions..shopping spree, love life.. and etc just like the rest of us.. so people that always are interested to know about actors so much.. wanna know what they do and when.. you guys dont have a f***ing life. Get a life.. a job.. a something!
See you dont wanna be you!

C'mon folks, the dude just a cool good actor. I don't care what kind of movie it is as long as Nicolas Cage or Denzel (my other obsession) are in it. His spending? I would buy all that shit especially the houses if I could afford it. Octopus and Cobra? NO. I laughed my ribs off from his admission ...."We come from a long lineage of robbers and highwaymen in Italy. Even killers." Go Nic just don't end up broke like Mike Tyson!

eBay was made for people like this.
Some of the things owned by Nicholas will go for huge money as long as it does not appear to be a firesale.
I enjoy all of his movies and do hope that Mr. Cage can continue to provide the entertainment on and off screen for a very long time to come.

It seems to me that some people are forgetting where we live. This is the United States of America! And as such we are entitled to freedoms. If we choose to spend our money on "weird" items, then so be it! Its our money and we can do with it as we wish. Put yourself in his shoes and you would more than likely buy what he is being criticized for. Would you like for the people or the government to tell you what you can and cannot buy or own? NO! Get off it! Nic Cage is a great actor. Period.And as far as 'helping charities , he does help by donating his time and money (money that he worked for) to charities and needy orginations. "Help the the children and people of Kenya"? For those of who still believe in God and doing what is morally right, Take care of what is in your own backyard. Clean up this country and then we will be in better shape to help others. Also, who was it that came up with the website godismichaeljackson, is a fool. Pure and simple.! That is blasphemy 100 % ! No human (dead or alive) can compare to God.

Entertainer yes.....accomplished actor? Self indulgent and arrogant, just kind of comes with the Hollywood territory.

You failed to mention that he has one of the biggest egos on the planet! There’s the answer to all your questions. His financial problems – all attributable to his massive ego – but of course he blames them on others – like all the egotists always blame everything – on others!

I've always been puzzled by this "brilliant actor" buzz. Nic Cage is a reasonably competent actor and has some emotional range. But he is a one character performer. That is, he ultimately only plays himself. And a lot of his delivery has a sort of monotone blandness to it. By contrast great actors like Philip Seymour Hoffman and Daniel Day Lewis not only can emote (much more convincingly, I would add) but can also take on truly diverse roles.

Mr. Cage is a brilliant actor who has every right to spend his hard earned money any way he wants. Eccentric lifestyle adds to his box office appeal and I would feel honored to have met the man someday. You try making that much money and not being a little quirky with it. Carry on Nick - your fans will not think less of you no matter what weird things they say about you. You have provided hours of high quality entertainment for all of us and I thank you.
