I honestly don’t typically relish in the failures of others, but with news like this, I can’t help but be amused. Kevin Federline (The Former Mr Britney Spears) is fancying himself an actor (since the rap career is doing so well) now with a role in The Night Watchman. Now it looks like that wont be happening. More importantly, its HOW this wannabe discovered the news.
The dancer-turned-actor was due to appear in The Night Watchman – with rumors abounding Federline was “appearing opposite” the Matrix star.
However, reports allege Federline was fired from the forthcoming film, but was not informed.
A source tells the New York Daily News, “He had a very small role – he was in a montage.
“He was fired from the film, but his manager didn’t tell him. Kevin found out when he turned up for a wardrobe call.”
That is priceless. The guy doesn’t just get to slink away saying “it didnt work out” but now we find out it wasn’t a “role”, it was an extra in a montage.
I happen to agree with John when it comes to these singers who think that they can just BE actors because their agent pulls in some favours. Clearly there are some exemptions to this rule (Mark Walberg for one) but honestly, who do these people think they are?
He was clearly a good enough dancer to end up backing up one of the hottest stage show stars of the last decade, but how does that qualify you to be an ACTOR???
So maybe I am enjoying his rejection a little too much.
