Guest Nanks Report post Posted May 17, 2004 Well I guess by the lack of activity in this thread now the world has been shocked that a dead man failed to live up to his word and come back to life for a gag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highland 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2004 Who cares? He's an overrated piece of shit "comedian" anyway. No one thought he was funny when he was alive and it's only because this stupid Hollywood myth has posthumously surrounded him that people think he's anything more than a c-list actor and comedian.

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2004 As for that blog, its a piece of garbage. Its not even funny. Speaking of coke, I learned that crack cocaine is an odorless, tasteless, highless, and utterly inactive chemical compound that was introduced by the CIA into urban areas during the 1980s as an excuse to arrest young black males. I learned this the hard way after paying $150 for some crack cocaine in Baltimore in 1994. So, go ahead, smoke some crack! Just tell your mom -- "Andy Kaufman says it's okay to smoke crack!" ? As for the Sunday event, the most detailed report I've seen came from a porn site... Ron Jeremy Attends Kaufman Premiere May 17, 2004 - Los Angeles - Celebrities occupy an almost mythological status in our culture. Whether they posses beauty, talent or charisma, they act as a sort of universal muse for people, inspiring them to live their own dreams. When one of these fabled creatures has the misfortune of an untimely end, the will for their spirit to keep living is so strong, that in some peoples’ minds, they are, in fact, alive. Like Elvis Presley (news) and John Belushi (news) before him, the death of comedian Andy Kaufman (news) may or may not have really happened on May 16th, 1984. While he was alive, the comedian often joked about faking his own death and making a dramatic reappearance twenty years later. This being the 20th anniversary of his alleged death, friends gathered at the House of Blues on the Sunset Strip last night to see if Kaufman, in fact, would surface. Andy’s close friend, Comic Relief founder Bob Zmuda, gave 12-1 odds for the comedian’s reappearance. “I think he’s dead. I told him once, ‘If you’re faking your death, I’ll kill you.’” No autopsy was performed, but with all of the suspicion surrounding the comedian’s death, there was an open coffin at his funeral. Even the open coffin was not enough to satisfy some people. Zmuda explained that a fellow named Dr. Triani actually poked the dead body at the funeral chapel, and declared that it could have easily been made of wax. Comedian Andy Dick (news) thought that there was a 50/50 chance of Andy Kaufman showing up. Dick remembers seeing Andy Kaufman on the short-lived comedy sketch show “Fridays” as a teenager and deciding that comedy would be his calling. “The irony is that I make all of my money on middle-of-the road network television, but the reason I’m even acting today is because of Andy Kaufman.” Actor Paul Rudd (news), known as Phoebe’s husband on “Friends,” came straight to the House of Blues from a bachelor party in Las Vegas last night. Rudd felt there was a one in two chance of Andy Kaufman making an appearance. That’s a smarter bet than Let it Ride, which the actor says is “A lame, silly game with the worst odds.” Clearly, he won’t be playing that on his next trip to Vegas. Porn Star Ron Jeremy (news) fresh off his sabbatical from the porn valley HIV scare attended with a gaggle of starlets, drawn in by the legendary Kaufman lure and mystique. The METRO contract star was easily more popular than most of the Hollywood phonies surrounding him and had to beg off giving interviews at an event that wasn’t his. Also fresh from Las Vegas was famed lounge singer Tony Clifton and his Steamy Cliftonettes. Making a rare appearance, Clifton belted out tunes to an appreciative crowd, including his show-stopping rendition of “Black Magic Woman.” The singer’s dance moves were in top form, even if at times it looked as if he were in danger of having a heart attack. Tony Clifton’s performance followed a one-time-only screening of the Milos Forman (news) documentary, “Andy Lives.” The documentary chronicled the misadventures of Tony Clifton on the set of “Man on the Moon.” Quite unbelievably, the film documents events that became tabloid lore. Actor Jim Carrey (news), who almost literally became Andy Kaufman for the film, is seen dressed up as “Mother” at the “Psycho” house on the Universal Studios back lot. The actor is pacing back and forth and then leaps up and runs after a tram filled with unsuspecting tourists wielding an axe. The tourists’ screams of terror seem genuine, as Carrey leaps on board and begins hacking away at the roof of the tram. The episode was far more benign in the “National Enquirer” account. The film also documented the infamous wrestling scene with Jerry “The King” Lawler, where Carrey insisted upon doing a dangerous wrestling move, the “pile driver.” Even though producers told the actor that if he insisted on doing the stunt, they would not film it, Carrey intentionally antagonized Lawler to the point that he attacked him. Carrey injured his neck, almost exactly as it originally happened to Kaufman in Memphis. Even if Mr. Kaufman didn’t appear in the flesh last night, and Ron Jeremy did, his friends and admirers felt his spirit fill the building throughout the evening.
