Did Prolific Robert Rodriguez Trade Rose McGowan for 22-Year-Old in His Latest Romantic Drama?
Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 8:30 AM on July 9, 2008
Box-office bombs and Barbarella casting crises aside, we hear today that the Robert Rodriguez Girlfriend Roundelay may have simply been too crowded for Rose McGowan to keep her place during the couple's bust-up. A tipster sends word that Rodriguez has moved on to 22-year-old Kat Dennings, the Charlie Bartlett ingenue currently shooting Shorts with the filmmaker in Austin; the duo has reportedly been seen at locales around town — including Rodriguez's hot tub, we're told — but for all we know that could just be a bit of refreshment after a long, midsummer day under the scorching Texas sun.
And Dennings's smitten blog post from May about her "redonkulous superhuman" director (excerpted after the jump)? That's probably just a genuine gesture of professional respect:
I must note that I'm in Texas at the moment, filming a movie with redonkulous superhuman Robert Rodriguez. And as I tilted my head to look at the pavement tonight while we were talking I felt the ground give way beneath me and I've been a peanut butter person ever since. Holla
Holla! Of course, in the same breath she demands "the guys from the BBC's Top Gear to go with me everywhere," so maybe she's just friendly like that. Anyway, neither Dennings nor reps for Rodriguez have responded to our requests for comment, so we'll just wish them well and caution Dennings against going public with that Women in Chains! starring role Rodriguez promised her after McGowan suddenly became, ahem, unavailable last week.

May I ask something? Why do you people even give a shit? I can't believe we have an economy that's turned to shit with rising food prices, a unpopular war without end, and you losers would rather bitch about a film maker's sex life?! Something that's not even any of your business? Jesus get a life all of you!

I just made the horrible mistake of spending 10 minutes reading her blog and then watching one of her YouTube videos.
It was the very definition of trying too hard.

@el smrtmnky: Uh more like a female version of himself.
And isn't that what all men want anyway? A female version of themselves to be with?

@Huge Tracts of Land: Another bonehead who thinks that a guy who fools around on his wife isn't going to fool around on her. Enjoy your karmagram, Rose, and Kat: RUN!!! FAST!!!!

It's going to be interesting at this year's Comic Con when Rodriguez has to do a panel with Rose McGowan on their Red Sonja remake.

Another nail in the coffin for the trickle-down theory: None of these ingenues El-Rod is plowing will ever work her way down to the bottom of the above-the-line totem pole (aka the writer). Where's the justice?

He's mine. He's mine! All I need is black hair, bigger boobs and five years shaved off. So close. Dammit.

Well Kat Denning's is definitely a pretty one. I still can't believe this guy just left his wife and kids like that though. What an asshole.

Redonkulous?
It's Mensa material like this, that make me glad I booze it up in the garage, rather than deal with the 6th Street/Warehouse/SoCo party crowd.

@el smrtmnky: No, looks like his ex-wife's kid. Not a knock on ex, she looks great. He's an ass.
And as someone who teaches college and therefore surrounded by 22-year-olds, I can attest it doesn't take much to AMAZE them.

Thought she looked familiar... She played Catherine Keener's weepy daughter in "The 40 Year Old Virgin."

@ColbertNation: Yeah, great big massive breasts, a perky nose and arched brows that weren't part of her emergency room treatment after a "car accident."
May she break Rob-Rod's limestone heart into dust and leave him drunk dialing McGowan.

Just checked out some pix of her on Yahoo and well, on the plus side, yeah, bigger boobs than Rose, younger, probably more easily impressed. On the minus side, though, and I'll even allow that the black dress she was wearing might just have been unflattering, but, well, she's kinda chubby. Then again, maybe that's El Mariachi's preference (but then what was he doing with Rose in the first place?).
