Most of the time we’d like to follow Jack Black around with a salt shaker full of Ritalin. But we like him because he seems like that spazzy kid from Hebrew school who couldn’t sit still long enough to remember the Sh’ma but hit the big time anyway, in spite of having few social skills and what we suspect is a mild case of Tourette’s.
He’s in the news ’cause he’ll soon be starring in the remake (of the remake) King Kong (not as the gorilla- an obvious case of miscasting) and has a reality show in the works. However, we find his quote in the Perspectives section of this week’s Newsweek the most entertaining news yet.
When asked with what woman he’d want to be stranded on a desert island, Jack replied:
“I’d have to go with Hillary Clinton. Forever could be, like, 50 years, so if I’m stranded with one person she better be kick-ass both upstairs and downstairs.”
Yeah, but how long would Hillary put up with his freak-self before she bashed him over the head with a coconut?
