Actor Nicolas Cage arrested in New Orleans

[Frank Fire]

NEW ORLEANS - Actor Nicolas Cage was arrested after he got drunk in the city's French Quarter and argued in the street with his wife over whether a house they were in front of was theirs, police said Saturday.

The couple was in front of a home that Cage insisted they were renting, police said. When she said it wasn't theirs, Cage grabbed her arm, according to a police news release.

Cage started hitting vehicles and tried to get into a taxi, police said. An officer saw that Cage was drunk and told him to get out of the cab. Cage then started yelling at the officer.

The actor has been booked on charges of domestic abuse battery, disturbing the peace and public drunkenness. He was released on $11,000 bond Saturday.

Representatives for Cage could not immediately be reached Saturday.

Cage has been a frequent visitor to New Orleans, where he has owned property and shot movies. He has also had financial troubles, despite being one of the highest-paid stars in Hollywood.

He had been behind on taxes and has said he's had to sell numerous assets because of his finances. He sued his former business manager in October 2009 for $20 million, claiming the man's advice led him to financial ruin.

Cage won an Academy Award for his performance in 1995's "Leaving Las Vegas."

[Elwood70]

How fucked-up do you have to be to get arrested for disturbing the peace and public drunkenness, in the fuckin' French Quarter in New Orleans!?

 

[meesterperfect]

my god, that monster!
I hope they fry that bastard.

 

[Ace Bandage]

He should have been arrested for being a horrible fucking actor. Christ, he ruins every film he's in. What a douche.

 

[izabelplayer]

GMA covered it on their show and was surprised & thought it was funny that Dog the bounty hunter is the one that bailed him out.

SF8 :surprise:

Grabing you wife's arm = Abuse and Battery = 11,000 $ caution
I guess anyone who dare slapping his wife would be sentenced to death...

 

[busenbust]

he loves having his fits

1.) '95 Must have been a weak year for Oscar nominees.

2.) He should have been at minimum arrested for that bad dye job he's been sporting.

3.) The pic of his arrest probably belongs in the "Actual pic that made you cum today" thread.

4.) The article should have been titled; Le Cage au Falls.

Because it has to be done. This meme has almost completely died off.

Though I agree with you his films suffer because of him. The only exception for me would be perhaps Lord of War.

Actor Nicolas Cage arrested in New Orleans for atrocious acting.

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

I guess his life mirrors his art.

Say what you will about his mediocre acting skills, but he was brilliant in Leaving Las Vegas.

 

[busenbust]

serves him right for the Wicker Man

 

[ciprianlucas]

that's some news
he should use his techniques to get out of there

He named his son Kal-El :2 cents:

I've been told by hundreds of people in the past 7 or 8 years that I look just like him, I think more the con air, face off days
taxi drivers, women, people in the gyms, on the street, all over the damn place.

It gets kind of old but there must be some merit to it.

I've even lied and said he was my cousin. (only to colombian chics, whatever means necessary right?)
thats me on the left.

had a friend who looked a lot like travolta in the face, whenever we went into the bar people would yell "face off!".

p.s. I don't think he's a bad actor, not the best but he's ok.

and this charge? he got wasted and went a little nuts, we've all done that.
drunk and disordly plead to public intoxication, no big deal
