Russell Crowe has aplogised for throwing a phone at a concierge at the Mercer hotel, admitting that it was the most 'stupid' thing he's ever done on the David Letterman show.
He blames his altercation on the 'loneliness' of being away from his wife and young son for the first time. He says he isn't used to it, but that his wife Danielle doesn't believe this is any excuse, because millions of husbands and fathers travel on business. Crowe says, "I'm just new at it. Actually, quite frankly, I hope I never get used to it. I don't want to be away from my family like this."
Crowe has been charged with second degree assault and criminal possession of a weapon, and has been ordered to return to court in September.

Whether we want to admit it or not, even now, in year 2012, there are still big gender biases in some fields of life. While it's generally understandable that men should do more heavy lifting than women and knitting fits a bit better for the women (even though I am aware even here there are many people who want to disagree), art is one of those things where our gender really should not play any significant role at all. And within the past decade things have started to change even on this front and even on the more conservative arenas such as Bukowskis - the top Nordic auction house.
