Washington, Jan 9 (ANI): ‘Avatar’ star Sam Worthington has revealed that Russell Crowe taught him how to handle fame.
The 34-year-old hunk said that the actor “really helped him out” when he started getting recognised, and Russell told him to always be respectful to his fans.
“We Aussie actors all know each other. I’ve asked Russell Crowe for advice over the years. He’s really helped me out a lot,” Contactmusic quoted Worthington as telling Britain’s Elle magazine.
“There’s no school that can tell you how to handle things like losing your anonymity. [Russell told me] to handle it with sensitivity. It’s hard to ask someone for their autograph. So if someone snubs me, why snub them? They’re braver than I am and deserve my respect.” (ANI)
