Global Brands: "In addition to global brands, we also have global celebrities. Jennifer Lopez is just as well known in India as she is in America. And so is Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bill Gates, Jack Welch, Bill Clinton, George Bush and a host of other global celebrities." "Premiere Magazine: The latest issue has The Making of Master and Commander on the cover with a very small pic of Russ in the corner. Inside is a four page spread with many pictures, most of them new."

The UK Times blurb on Russell's Greatest Fights: "RUSSELL CROWE’S GREATEST FIGHTS Thursday Channel 4, 10pm -- Imagine you are Russell Crowe. You spend all day in a Roman amphitheatre. You stop off on the way home to have a bite to eat and a couple of drinks. A few bits of crockery get thrown around in a playful kind of way. Next thing you know, there’s this other bloke giving you a look and — bang — suddenly you are in the middle of a punch-up and your face is all over the papers and it is not even your fault. In this programme, Crowe’s friends and colleagues discuss his reputation as a hellraiser, with CCTV footage showing the Antipodean gladiator in action."

Do we need to know?

Manly actor Russell Crowe underwent the ultimate test of his manhood earlier this year: abstinence.

According to Zap2it.com, the Gladiator deprived himself of sex for a few months before his marriage so that the wedding night would be . . . let's just say "special."

Crowe married longtime girlfriend Danielle Spencer in April. They're expecting a baby boy in January.

"We spent a lot of time apart, as in not sharing the same bed," Crowe said. "I was determined there would be a lot of pent-up energy on the big night."

Even those of us who have trouble keeping up with the Count on Sesame Street can figure out that his plan worked so well that the couple conceived their child on the honeymoon.

The NY Post - Liz Smith: "RUSSELL CROWE is said to have undergone a change from once-rowdy actor since his marriage to Danielle Spencer and impending fatherhood. He tells friends that he "prays to God" his days as a sex symbol are over. He covets real character roles now. (Russell has gained weight and seems in no hurry to shed his burly heft.) I did note that at his wedding, Russell, so often a scowler, looked goofy with happiness. The Oscar winner appears next in the epic "Master and Commander," and from the look of that seagoing adventure, it seems as if we're in for a treat from Fox."
