Ever wonder what happened to Tom Green, the one-nutted MTV prankster whom Drew Barrymore was married to for about as long as it took for the drugs to wear off? No? Me either. Apparently he's still around though, and he's keeping up on current events. Like the recent Michael Richards unpleasantness. Seems Mr. Green is on Richards' side in this one. Which must be a real comfort to Richards. I mean, who better to argue for your reputation than a man whose greatest moment was starring in a music video about rubbing your butt against things?
In case you're curious, here's what Tom Green said in his blog about Richards' infamous racist tirade:
Unlike Mel Gibson, who probably does hold racist attitudes, I don't think Michael Richards doesn't like black people. I think he was just trying to say the craziest and most vile thing in that room he could possibly muster. And I think he dug deep, into the darkest corners of his mind, to say those evil things to those men.But he did it in a small room, in an exchange, during a performance, and it wasn't meant for us. It was just meant for that room. So why don't we just let them settle it? Let's leave Michael Richards alone.
Wow. Tom Green not only knows what's inside Michael Richards' mind, he also knows what's in Mel Gibson's. This guy has crazy powers. Just like the cop on Heroes who used his mind-reading ability to trick his wife into loving him again.
My God - now we know how he managed to nab Drew!
