K-Mart Bond might be a bit of a girl! |

As we know…Daniel Craig and OUR Huge Jackman are prepping for their play A Steady Rain for Broadway for the past month. OUR Hugh plays Denny, “a patrolman with a racist streak and violent temper.” Daniel plays Joey, “a recovering alcoholic and gentler soul who may not be as docile as he first seems.” The play opens in September.
Anyhooo, word is Daniel is being a bit of a diva and has requested round the clock security to shadow him while he’s in NY while OUR Hugh, as always, has been super low maintenance, happy to come and go on his own, as approachable and as modest as ever. Gush. According to a Page Six source no one thinks Daniel’s request is necessary: "Everybody thinks it's funny because the truth is, Daniel rarely gets approached by the public in the street and at restaurants -- especially now that he has the huge handlebar moustache for this role.”
Ok, I'll be fair. Daniel Craig fans can certainly bring the crazy. I’ve seen the obsession. Conspiracy theories, frightening hate for his fiancee Satsuki Mitchell, an alarming stalker like need to know where he is at all times…But it’s not like Hugh doesn’t have his share of lunatics either. When you take on a franchise like Wolverine, it’s part of the game. And if you agree to be Bond…Well…Attention and adoration are lavished upon the popular. It’s not like 007 is an indie flick.
Oh, and this isn’t the first time that Daniel Craig (who’s rented a lavish, $38,000-a-month apartment with top security as his safe haven while in NY) has been accused of being a wimp. In 2005, he made a splash in London when he was unveiled as the new James Bond on a Royal Marine commando boat — looking seasick, clinging on for dear life and wearing a life jacket. He even admitted the ride had scared “the $#@% out of me.”
