On January 7, actor Nicolas Cage turned 56 years old. He is one of the brightest examples of how you can lose your head from success, writes lady.mail.ru. The actor is known for his extravagant actions: he almost squandered his 150 millionth fortune, got drunk many times, got married and filed for divorce after four days of marriage. We tell you what Nicolas Cage looks like and what he does today.
As soon as he went bankrupt, he is again a millionaire
In the mid-150s, Nicolas Cage's fortune was estimated in the range from $ 200 to $ XNUMX million. Then the actor began to freak out: Cage made crazy purchases, invested in real estate and fake antiques. Among other things, he bought a collection of mummified heads of African pygmies into his house - the actor allegedly believed that the owner of this strange "collection" would take away the strength of the fallen soldiers.
Already by 2008, due to unsuccessful investments, Cage's financial affairs were in decline. The actor himself in an interview admitted that he was close to bankruptcy. This made him plunge into the work with his head.
Since 2010, Nicolas Cage has been shot in approximately three films annually, and in 2017-2018, with his participation, 4-5 films a year were released. The actor holds this pace today: in 2019, three films with the participation of Cage were released.
Thanks to his participation in the movie, Cage managed to improve financial matters: he is again a millionaire, however, the size of his fortune, as the media write, is far from its "star" form. Today, according to various estimates, it can amount to 50-75 million dollars.
Divorced after four days of marriage
The habit of getting married is about Nicolas Cage. Only officially the actor was married four times, and one of his wives was the daughter of Elvis Presley himself. The actor has a weakness for Asian women: with his previous wife, a Korean waitress Alice Kim, Cage has been married for more than ten years. In 2005, she gave birth to a son, who was given the strange name of Ka-El, and broke up with the actor in 2016.
In March 2019, Cage got married for the fourth time. His wife was 23-year-old Japanese girl Erica Koike, about whom little is known. This marriage lasted only four days - after which the actor filed for divorce.
On the subject: The girl, on whom Nicolas Cage was married 4 of the day, requires money for divorce
Eyewitnesses said that the marriage process looked strange. Cage was clearly drunk and shouted at the bride that she wanted to leave him without money. In response, Koyke stated that he himself brought her to the wedding, and if he wants, they can leave.
Star sang in karaoke
In April 2019, Nicolas Cage, probably in search of comfort after a divorce, appeared in one of the karaoke bars in Los Angeles. The actor was supposedly drunk again. Cage picked up a microphone and sang Prince Purple Rain's song, and cafe visitors took the actor to their gadgets.
Today, the recording was watched by about 300 thousand people, although it is undoubtedly worthy of more views: Cage sings so diligently and so falsely and at the same time tries to dance to the beat of the music, which is very funny.
Became a meme
In the fall of 2019, a seven-meter statue of the baby Jesus weighing about 900 kilograms was placed in the Mexican town of Chimalhuacan. The media wrote that this is the largest statue in the world, which depicts Christ in infancy.
However, after the publication, Internet users came to the conclusion that the infant Jesus resembles actor Nicolas Cage very much.
So the 56-year-old Hollywood actor became an Internet meme.
Will play Nicolas Cage
Recently it became known that in the new film project, Nicolas Cage can play ... Nicolas Cage. The media reported that the actor is in talks with Lionsgate. It's about filming a movie where Cage will play himself.
According to the script, the actor suffers numerous failures, his films fail at the box office, and he also unsuccessfully tries to get the role from Quentin Tarantino. The difficult financial situation makes him agree to speak at the birthday of the Mexican drug lord. At the same time, the CIA contacts the actor and asks him to be his "decoy duck."
The working title of this painting is “The Unbearable Weight of Great Talent”. The final fate of the project is not yet known, it is under negotiation, but the news is already actively discussed on the Internet.
He has pride and he is not an alcoholic
In an interview with Popcorn, Nicolas Cage praised his recent proximity to bankruptcy: “There are successful and unsuccessful investments. I bought the first comic book about Superman for 150 thousand dollars, he was stolen. I returned it and resold it for $ 2 million. But the dinosaur skull turned out to be a bad buy. I bought it at an auction for 276 thousand dollars, but then it turned out that he was kidnapped, and I had to return it. As a result, my condition was ruined by the purchase of real estate, for which prices collapsed at one point. But I did not file for bankruptcy, I have pride. "
Despite the fact that even eyewitnesses to Cage’s last wedding admitted that he was drunk, the actor says: he does not suffer from alcoholism: “I myself am not an alcoholic, I have never been, I was not in the company of anonymous alcoholics and I was not treated in clinics.”
