DENZEL WASHINGTON ON FRIENDS IN HOLLYWOOD!!

“But actually, even within the industry, I don’t have any actor friends. My friends are old friends. One’s an ex-music guy, the other’s a restaurant owner and the other’s an ex-pro ballplayer.”

DM: Sometimes its good to stick with the ones who been there for you through thick and thin. A true friend will always stand the test of time and always have your back no matter what.

DENZEL WASHINGTON ON WHY HE DON'T HAVE FRIENDS IN HOLLYWOOD!!

“Because I don’t make friends! Maybe I’m not a butt-kisser, maybe I’m not a schmoozer. I’m not about to go to a party to try to get a job. And then when you have children, the other friends become other parents.We’d coach baseball or basketball. My wife and I were raised right. I don’t want movie-star friends. And being African American, there were no big movie stars to hang out with anyway, not when I was starting out, they were just the third guy from the back! For whatever reason, I never befriended any white actors.”

DM: Fair to say that Denzel Washington has his head screwed on right. It takes a wise man to know when to hold & fold in this life.It makes all the difference in the outcome as to whether you succeed or fail. Hiphopnews24-7.com will keep you updated.

Dam I never knew that bout Denzel. I thought him and Samuel L. Jackson would be friends. He is right bout life doe. Ya friends who were there when you had nothing will be the same friends who should stay around when you blow up.

I believe where he is coming from that he been in the business long enough to no the ins & outs & the do's and donts, and who to mess with and not to deal with and so on and so on.

Im quite sure this man has seen a lot things over the course of his 20+ year career to make him narrow his options down to 1 or 3 friends.

Comment by DADDYMACK on January 27, 2013 at 2:21pm
