Denzel Washington is just your typical guy. He works hard, loves his four children, and doesn?t have any celebrity friends. And he doesn?t want any, either.
?Even within the industry, I don?t have any actor friends. My friends are old friends,? Washington explained to the Guardian. ?One?s an ex-music guy, the other?s a restaurant owner and the other?s an ex-pro ballplayer.?
When questioned as to why he doesn?t make any celeb friends on movie sets he laughingly replied, ?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.?
?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.?
(His rep later whooshed in and clarified the latter part of that statement, saying the magazine cut out the part where he said ? ? except Tom Hanks, Mel Gibson and Julia Roberts,? among others.)
?I?m a working actor! What?s a celebrity, anyway?? Washington added. ?Paris Hilton?s a celebrity. I?m just a working actor.?
And with only a few short sentences, Denzel nailed the difference between people who are famous for their work ? and people who just work at being famous.
