Charmed actress Rose McGowan has reportedly split with director Robert Rodriguez, who left his wife and children to be with her — because of financial difficulties on their upcoming film Barbarella, a remake of the 1968 cult classic starring Jane Fonda. McGowan was supposed to star in the film, but she wasn’t considered to be a big enough star by studio bosses. Rodriguez and McGowan met and began an affair when he directed her in Grindhouse (2007), but the film grossed a paltry $25.4 million. Universal was planning to completely axe Barbarella because Rodriguez wanted his girlfriend to star. Now that the situation is out of his hands, McGowan must have seen no further use for him. Rodriguez and his ex-wife, Elizabeth, have five children under the age of 12.
Wow I don’t know who is worse McGowan for using him to get somewhere when she know’s he has a family then droping him when he doesn’t get her to where she wants to be, or him for leaving his 5 kids and wife for a mistress…
Is it just me or is there something wrong with that picture…
I knew they were dating, but I had no idea he was married and left his wife to be with her.
I wonder what she’s done in the past to get her roles on Charmed etc.
Dave: do you mean you wonder WHO she’s done?
I like her…she’s hot…but it is hard to get your career going once you’ve dated Marilyn Manson and sleeping with her directors isn’t going to help…and the only person to blame for leaving the wife and kids is the man…he had a choice and he made it by listening to his little friend between his legs…now what is he gonna do? I swear if his wife takes him back…she shouldn’t be surprised if it happens again…
Good for Rosie.
jennie_bearz, for once I agree with you.
Robert is a pig for leaving his wife & 5 kids for another woman, and Rose is also a pig for getting involved with a married man. A real man would never do that to his wife, and a real woman would never do that to another woman.
You couldn’t have said it any better tributegirl and Camilla!
If his wife doesn’t take him back, get ready for the mother of all divorce settlements because having 5 mouths to feed and one scorned woman will not be cheap for him and it serves him right.
If she doesn’t take him back, good for you because you certainly deserve someone who would be loyal to you and your 5 children.
Peace out!
The picture being used to promote “Hancock” (Will Smith closeup) looks surprisingly like Angelina Jolie;the mouth especially…
This picture is at the side of the articles about that slut Rose McGowan
She used Marilyn Manson at the height of his fame also. I am surprised that any of you are surprised at a Hollywood Starlet jumping from bed to bed to benefit her career. Most actresses are a little more discreet, but it happens nonetheless, even under the guise of a “short relationship”…..
I hope everyone is using condoms!!!
I’m not surprised at her hopping from bed to bed, I just think that a real woman would never hurt another woman like that, so obviously she’s just a slut & not a real woman.
Um..it’s all HER fault! lol
Tributegirl never said it was all her fault but if you would just think about it for a moment a women with any class at all would never go for a married man and break up a family just to get somewhere in their carier in my eye’s that’s a slut…
I agree, and like I said before, once a cheater always a cheater. If he cheated on her…he will cheat on you, and the best part is…YOU ASKED FOR IT! As Sharon Stone might say, “KARMA”. I also agree that Rose is a slut and she was before she even met this guy.
married dudes are the best…u no they have experience…
Ya she’s a skank for doing that…but he’s the one married to her…so if he loved her and cared about his kids he should have been thinking with his brain not his ****
That’s true Tammy, but us women know what alot of guys are like and viseversa and we should check into things before we go sleeping with other people. I think they are absolutely both to blame and one is no better than the other.
