You’ve made it! You’re a big name in Hollywood! You’re respected by both the public and your peers.
Please don’t commit the faux pas of calling other Hollywood Illuminati by their names. You have to use their secret nicknames, or suffer the consequences.
Here’s a handy nickname guide when you first make the A-List.
01. Robert DeNiro – Bobby
02. James Caan – Jimmy
03. Russell Crowe – Rusty
04. Martin Scorsese – Marty
05. Robert Downey, Jr. – Bob
06. Robert Duvall – Mr. Chippers
07. Al Pacino – T.D. (Top Dog)
08. Madonna – Madge
09. Paul Le Mat – Paul (warning: not a member of the Hollywood elite!)
10. Ben Stiller – Sticky
Next they’ll be “Nicknames used by George W. Bush for media elites.”
I think that Madonna’s nickname is “Marge”, not “Madge”. It’s ether that, or “Frenchy.”
Mr. Chippers? You gotta be kidding me.
Mr. Chippers? You gotta be kidding me.
Would I joke about something as serious as celebrity nicknames?
with nicknames like these, it’s just a good thing that fate had these people become actors instead of UFC fighters.
