Rachel Weisz Won't Discuss Daniel Craig

Categories: Film

Reporters who were set to work the red carpet for last night's big screening of The Whistleblower were instructed in advance:

"No personal questions for Rachel Weisz!"

In other words, don't ask the former partner of Darren Aronofsky about her new marriage to Daniel Craig.

Rachel's a no-nonsense type with two feet on the ground and no eye for exploitation. In fact, she and Daniel got married in a secret ceremony attended by only four people.

That cut down on the rice budget.

And the Oscar-winning actress hardly needs to trumpet this relationship anyway. It generates its own heat. It talks about itself.

In fact, last night, there was a bank of paparazzi desperate to get a shot of Rachel because her tabloid value has shot through the roof! (This happens every time two big names hook up; their publicity worth multiplies like rabbits.)

Gosh, if I'd hooked such a fine man, I'd be begging for questions about it!

In fact, even without anyone asking, I'd be cornering people in dark alleys to tell them about Daniel and I how snared him and how firm his legs are.

"Bravo to Rachel for not exploiting her relationship for publicity."

No, she just unassumingly married one of the biggest move stars in the business because she's a humble little grounded gal who doesn't want publicity.

I'm so inspired.

You're not smart or articulate enough to say whatever it is you're trying to say. Or maybe you're so used to responding with snark to everything you read and hear that you completely miss the point of most of it.

 "No, she just unassumingly married one of the biggest move stars in the business because she's a humble little grounded gal who doesn't want publicity."

She's a star herself so what's the point? Make sure you know what you are trying to talk about before you make a fool out of yourself.

By the way, love Rachel and have a lot of Respect for her for taking the high road.

Um, the article points out that two stars together explode, p.r.-wise. And she's nowhere near as big a star as he is.

"the article points out that two stars together explode, p.r.-wise."

And that's their fault or the tabloids?

"And she's nowhere near as big a star as he is."

Again what's the point?  She's still a star regardless and yet she and Daniel Craig don't use their relationship to sell their films.

You sound like you have a personal problem with something that is not there.

Wow, an actress who actual respects her private life enough not to exploit it for publicity. Rachel Weisz has always been a private person and more power to her for sticking to her guns in not exploiting her relationship for publicity. We have too many celebrities already using their personal lives to sell themselves including exploiting their own kids just to get on a magazine cover. I respect Rachel and Daniel Craig even more for not exploiting their marriage to the press.

P.S. I saw "The Whistleblower" its great and Rachel really deserves another Oscar for her powerful performance.

I agree:) In a world with the kardashians making fools out of themselves, its good to have people who treat their private lives as private.

Loved her in Constant Gardener, but not sure I want to see her in  a U.N. sex trafficking movie.

PS; Daniel showed up at the after party. The photogs must have wet themselves.
