It's not easy being beautiful, believe me. People are always coming up and wanting to take a photo with you or have you model bathing suits or just hand you money. Enough already! I'm a person, dammit, not just a woman's fantasy novel model...although I am that too. Therefore, I can understand why Gerard Butler likes to makes jokes about stupid questions from stupid people that are thrown his way.
How does Gerard Butler deal with those pesky Jennifer Aniston relationship rumors? By joking about it.Of course, Gerard isn't always Mr. Charmingly-Disarming-Now-Take-Off-Your-Clothes-With-Me-Suave, oh no. Sometimes he's just a regular schmo like you and me...who likes to grope Katherine Heigl."Conan [O'Brien] asked me about Aniston, who is my costar in the movie I'm making now, and I just said, 'Yeah, we're getting married. What the he--," Butler tells Parade magazine. "Tell a joke, that's my technique," he continues. "I learned as a kid how to stay out of trouble: make it funny."
He also kids about walking down the aisle with a few other women.
"I'm careful to also say that I'm marrying Cameron Diaz and maybe Joan Rivers," says Butler, who was briefly linked to Diaz in April 2008. "I like to tell everyone I'm going to be a busy guy."
Butler wasn't as smooth with his The Ugly Truth costar, Katherine Heigl.Oh har har, Gerard, but Katherine told me last night that the two of you are just good friends. Of course, she also said the same thing about the milk man when I caught them naked in bed together. And about Father O'Malley when I found her on her knees praying to his crotch. And again when I spotted her having rough sex with Matt Damon in the back of a Chevy Pickup. Man... she has a lot of good friends."Truthfully, one time I was supposed to play with Katherine's hair and I kept forgetting my lines," he explains. "I was so nervous that I grabbed her breast. Afterwards, all I could do is say 'I'm sorry.' Yeah."
But later?
"We went back to our trailer and made out after the dancing scene," he quips.
