Celebrities put in a lot of effort to create their attractive public image. Even their weird quirks are blindly watched by their fans because they think it’s cool. Take a look at 12 weird celebrity quirks and find out why they exist:
1. Clint Eastwood squints his eyes most of the time because they are very sensitive to light. When he was shooting in bright light for A Few Extra Dollars, he squinted his eyes for most of the scenes. Then he did not yet know that he would start the fashion for the “Eastwood squint”
2. Christopher Walken often dances in his films. This is because Walken started his career as a dancer and not as an actor. He goes out of his way to incorporate dance moves into his activities whenever and wherever he can.
3. Ariana Grande most often wears a high ponytail because she badly damaged her hair when she had to dye it for her role as Cat Valentine on Nickelodeon’s Victorious.
4. The scar you see on Joaquin Phoenix’s lips is not the result of cleft lip surgery. This is his birthmark.
5. U2 frontman Bono always wears glasses because of his glaucoma problem. This is a disease that can make the eyes more sensitive to light.
6. True Blood star Deborah Ann Woll admits that she started dyeing her hair red in order to literally attract attention and be more noticeable. Light-skinned blonde and a loner in life, she says she always faded into the background.
7. Mister Rogers, the host of an educational children’s TV show, always said it out loud when he fed the fish in front of the camera, because he received a letter from a young blind fan who was worried that he was keeping his swimming friends hungry.
8. The earrings worn by Morgan Freeman are not ordinary earrings. They are expensive enough to buy him a coffin in case he dies in some unusual place. This is an old tradition followed by sailors.
9. Emma Stone has a very distinctive husky voice due to a rare childhood illness. In infancy, she was diagnosed with colic. She claims that in the first six months after birth, she screamed so hard that she developed nodules in her throat.
10. Grunge fashion wasn’t Kurt Cobain’s choice. He was left so destitute that he only shopped at economy stores and bought incongruous clothes.
11. The scar on Jason Momoa’s eyebrow actually has a story. One day, a guy accidentally broke a bottle of beer in his face, after which he had to get 180 stitches.
12. Marilyn Monroe spoke in a sexy whisper because it saved her from stuttering.
