Calm Down, Robert De Niro

 

I've never understood why celebrities walk out of interviews early in a huff.  I mean, sure, if the interviewer is a total douche or completely off the mark, then go for it, person who is paid millions to pretend, by all means!  But Dame Robert De Niro up there needed to settle down a touch during his interview with Radio Times ...via UsWeekly: 

Brockes claimed that she asked De Niro about two topics that seemingly upset him. First, she questioned him about the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City, home to the famed film festival which he co-founded, asking if the area had been overrun by bankers. And secondly, she questioned if the Oscar winner ever gets into “autopilot” mode while on set. 

De Niro then reportedly asked Brockes to turn off the recorder and began pacing “madly,” complaining about the tone of the interview.
“All the way through. Negative inference,” he said, according to Brockes. “The whole way through and I’m not doing it. I’m not doing it, darling.”

I think asking him if he goes on auto-pilot was a fair question.  I mean we've all see the Fockers abortions...it's like he had a lobotomy somewhere in between the second and third one and didn't bother to tell anyone.
