Robert De Niro

Just seen De Niro flogging bread on the TV.
How low has his career sunk?
Started with the Fokker's I reckon.
Other than pure greed, why do these already wealthy millionaires accept these demeaning roles?

He visited Kassiopi in Corfu whilst I was there a few years ago to have dinner in the harbour, I didn't see him but apparently he was more than happy to have his photo taken in the taverna with the staff and other people having their MOUSAKKA

ChillTheKeel 9:12 Tue Jun 11 Re: Robert De Niro Why do these idiots marry? And why do they always seem to marry leaches?
Very true. Some excellent advice I was once given (I might have even read it on here), is if it flies, floats or fucks, rent it, don't buy it.

Bacon lost a shit load of wedge investing with Bernie Madoff. Bit harsh having a pop at him. For taking the money.

De Niro and Warburtons
Keitel and Direct Line
Bacon and EE
They dont mind doing it as it isnt going to be seen in America (where the adverts are generally absolute shit) and over here its positive publicity. Plus they get a nice payday for about a minute's worth of work.

How much are Warburtons ROLLing in it to be able to afford the likes of Stallone and De Niro to do their ads?

Good luck to him, he will still be a multi millionaire after his divorce!!! See a lot of these old stars make a few bombs and straight to DVD movies these days including Pacino as well but the writing is crap now not enough quality new stuff on the table.
Rather than an advert the most embarrassed I was for him was when the bizarre Tom Hiddleston did an "impression" in front of De Niro on Graham Norton of the De Niro/Pacino Heat scene. Cringeworthy stuff and De Niro didn't look particularly impressed!!

Or, you could just see it as a piss take of the roles he's played and get a sense of humour!

For much of my adult life people have asked me "do you know who you remind me of?
Robert De Niro
I have even had people take photos with me.
At work for many years there was two pictures on the wall one of me and one of De Niro with the caption "separated at birth?"
If I had an agent I too could have been doing bread adverts.
Although in recent years the comparisons have been less frequent I assume interest in De Niro has somewhat dwindled

What im more interested in is how much money does Warburtons have? First Stallone and now Bobby D???
Harvey Kieltel and Kevin Bacon both got skinned by Bernie Maddoff and lost all their money so that at least explains why they're doing ads.

I have to say, when they bury the bagels in the ground, they leave them in the plastic bags. Not good for the environment.
