From all accounts of what she said though, Jesse seemed like an okay guy. I mean the most he had really done at the point was play Balthazar in Leo's "Romeo + Juliet." Which was like, some decent background time, and like three lines. Seemingly from that movie though, the two, Leo and Jesse, became chummy. One time my friend was hanging out at Jesse's and picked up the phone. She asked who it was, and the person was all, "Leo DiCaprio." She was like, "I don't think so." And his response was pretty much, "Yes, yes, I am." So she uttered, "whatever," and hung up on him. Jesse informed her afterwards that it probably was him, and said she was sorry when Leo called back. She was mortified.
Due to this connection, I've always watched Bradford's tracks. Not necessarily watching all of his work, but, you know. Kind of watching what he was doing. He seems to be rather prominent this summer because of his work in two indie movies that I want to see, "Happy Endings" and "Heights." Both have gotten pretty lame reviews, but I've been wanting to see them for awhile, so I'll probably end up seeing both. Okay, so both have queer content to them and may be the reason why I want to see them and still will despite dismal reviews, but, whatever.
I've noticed though that Jesse's been seemingly becoming cockier over time. Plus he had some quote about playing gay that came off as being slightly homophobic, and a little obsessed with proving that he was playing gay. You know. So people would confuse him as being, uh-oh, gay. Whatever, jackass.
Then. He did this snippet interview with "People" and he's featured as one of their men of the summer. Sigh.
I'm assuming he's still not big enough to have a PR person present when answering questions, because I don't know if he would have said the same things he in fact did say.
What's it like owning a hot New York club?
It's good. I'm not really doing any of the day-to-day grunt work. It's more
just an investment opportunity, and a risky one at that. I just thought it would
be fun and interesting, and why the hell not?
Do you and co-owner Chris Noth (a.k.a. Sex and the City's Mr. Big) hang out
much?
We're acquaintances. He's good friends with my good friend (and business
partner) Noel Ashman, who's kind of the mastermind behind this whole thing.
Any memorable clubbing nights?
I got forcibly removed from Nyla (Britney Spears's onetime restaurant) in
New York back when it opened because a bouncer tried to start a fight with my
girlfriend at the time. It was ridiculous. Who picks a fight with a girl? A
pussy, that's who. I stepped in and put my hands on him and said, "What the f–
do you think you're doing?" And before I knew it, I was being escorted out by
three guys with my hand up over my head.
What about at NA?
I've had some fun there. I was there for New Year's this year. That was
great. Flava Flav performed, and then Fat Joe was just there hanging out, and he
decided to get up onstage and do a song too, which was completely
unsolicited. So that was awesome.
How's the celeb scene there?
Eliza Dushku (Bring It On) was there celebrating her birthday. We're
talking for a while, and five minutes into the conversation I'm like, "Do you
know I kind of own this place?" She's like, "What?" I don't remember what
happened after that – I was kind of drunk. I think I sent her a bottle of
champagne. It was a funny thing to be able to be like,
"By the way, do you need anything? Because I can get it."
