Warning: Excessive swearing and not by me this time!
Here's a fun thing. On Bravo, for those of you who don't know, there is a wonderful show hosted by James Lipton called, "Inside the Actors Studio" where famous people in the movie industry are interviewed in front of the current Actors Studio. At the end of the interview, Lipton uses the Bernard Pivot Questionnaire to finalize the interview. To see the full Questionnaire and answers given by stars, click here, choose "Bernard Pivot Questionnaire" at the bottom, then click on a name and a question to see the responses. One of the questions is, "What is your favorite curse word?" I thought you might be interested in some of the answers:
