I have no idea who his ex is but that's hilarious. She was a longtime actress on General Hospital. They dated for a couple/few years when they were in their late teens/early twenties. I was big in the GH fandom at the time and rumor had it her mother *hated* him. Of course rumor had it her mother was kind of nuts, too, so maybe that cancels each of the rumors out.

I have no idea who his ex is but that's hilarious. She's well-known in the soap opera world for her role of Robin Scorpio on General Hospital. She's played the role off and on since she was a little girl. Her character has also aged in real time (which is rare on soaps). Of course Freddie's wife SMG got her big break on another AMC soap All My Children. ETA: Jinx, scarlet!

Poster on ONTD said Freddie was being considered as a replacement for Kiefer and it didn't happen. Thank god because Cole Ortiz sucked monkey balls. Bitter, party of 1.

Kieffer Sutherland is tiny How tiny is tiny? Like 5'4" tiny as Freddie describes? I just have this weird obsession about the real heights of celebrities. Imdb says Kiefer is 5'9". Not too bad, but short compared to his father. I interacted professionally with KS for about a week in the mid 90s. I am 5ft 4in, and with a one inch heel we were eye to eye (I think that he was wearing a slight heel too though.) So IMDB is lying to you, and Freddie is pretty much telling the truth about Kiefer’s height (I don’t expect people to be exact unless they have a ruler or something.) It is possible that KS may be 5ft 6in when taking leaning, etc into account, but that’s the top height. Kiefer was also tiny in width – like maybe a size 6 in women’s clothing and back then he was really ripped – like had an 8-pack. Seriously. He also had a deeply melodious voice – it was heaven to get a phone call from him. He was really nice (interacted very kindly with the civilians) though he seemed to drink quite a bit and had this tendency to don a British accent of sorts very late in the evening. It was hilarious. Hahaha. You go, Robin Scorpio! Freddie sounds like a douche. Even if KS was a bit of a mess while they were filming, why bring it up now? Five years has passed – build a bridge and get over it. Yeesh. ETA: While I'm here on real celebrity heights, Henry Rollins is also not 5ft 9in as his IMDB profile says. he's more like 5ft 6in, maybe 5ft 7in. He had a very thick neck and nice muscles when I got the chance to stand directly opposite him about ten years ago. He was attractive though had a perma-scowl (I believe this is called "resting bitchface" now), and he had a completely different vibe to Kiefer. KS had a mellow, kind of sweet vibe to him. Henry's intensity emanates off him like heat.

[/quote] Kiefer was also tiny in width [/quote]
Heh, yeah my mind is all over on that one.
Those heights are always so fake. I knew someone who knew Johnny Carson years ago and reported that he was tiny. He's now listed at 5'10"!

Heh and ew. I didn't find KS attractive so my mind didn't go there. And my understanding of male actor's heights on imdb goes like this: everyone claiming to be around 5ft 9in is suspected of being significantly shorter; 6ft plus - I believe it.

Never met the guy but it's my impression that Kiefer partied too hard. Not a mean drunk, but sloppy and a little unruly. He did tackle a christmas tree and pull down his pants (separate incidents).
That said, he seems like he'd be nice, if a little chaotic, on set.
Never liked FPJ or SMG.

I just wonder why he's bringing it up now- it seems so random, five years after the fact.

I don't know why I'm so excited to find out that Keifer Sutherland is exactly the same height as me. We could bump into each other and accidentally kiss! ( but he smokes, so, yuck)
It's odd that Freddie is talking about this five years down the road. Maybe he's trying to get a little attention ahead of some new project, and this is all the scandal he could muster up? I like FP and I was excited he was on 24, so I'm sorry he had a bad time.

He sounds like "that actor" who thought he was on the road to Clooneydom except much like his wife his career peaked c. 2002, so now every conversation revolves around his heyday and namedropping the biggest stars he worked with. Kind of like the HS quarterback who went off to college, drank 24/7, got cut, dropped out and now spends his days half in the bag at the hs football field critiquing players half his age in between shifts at the Dairy Queen. Now, I want some soft serve.
