Actor Russell Crowe and his girlfriend Britney Theriot were denied service at an Australian restaurant for not meeting the smart-casual dress code.
The couple went to eat at Mr Miyagi, a Japanese-fusion establishment in Melbourne, with outfits worn when they played tennis earlier in the day, but the staff was quick to deny them entry, reports `New York Post`.
“He (Russell) went there wearing a brand new Ralph Lauren polo having just played a game of tennis and was turned away,” Crowe`s manager Grant Vandenberg told the `Daily Mail Australia`.
The restaurant describes itself as “casual but fancy” where “work gear, activewear, singlets, and thongs (flip-flops)” are forbidden.
As per `New York Post`, the management doubled down on their decision to kick out the `Gladiator` star, saying no one is above their rules.
“We treat everyone the same. It doesn`t matter who you are or if you are Russell Crowe.
We`ve got a dress code that we push across every level,” restaurant owner Kristian Klein told `The Herald Sun`.
“We are consistent with it and I don`t feel like it`s unreasonable,” Klein said. “But I know personally if I`m in my thongs (flip-flops) and my boardies (shorts), I`m not going to try and go to a nice restaurant, because I wouldn`t be dressed appropriately,” Klein added.
Meanwhile, the terrifying trailer of the film `The Pope`s Exorcist` has dropped. The trailer unravels the terrifying possession of a young boy and an intervention by Father Gabriele Amorth played by the Academy Award-winner Russell Crowe.
The film is based on the actual files of Father Gabriele Amorth, Chief Exorcist of the Vatican, and follows Amorth as he investigates a young boy`s possession and ends up uncovering a centuries-old conspiracy the Vatican has desperately tried to keep hidden.
Directed by Julius Avery, the movie has its screenplay written by Michael Petroni and Evan Spiliotopoulos, with a screen story by Michael Petroni and R. Dean McCreary and Chester Hastings.
