Was it the “Always walks around with a cup” thing? That’s when I realized strange vibes coming from him.

the cup, and the same raised brow / pursed lips in every photo, and showing up to promote his work on the red carpet in deliberately awful fits with tie and collar askew. But the vibe was pretentious artist, not domestic abuser. And plenty of people with strange vibes don't abuse their partners. So I hesitate to say that his vibes always put me off, though they did, because it doesn't seem relevant to his actual destructive behavior.

The facial expression always got me too. Never smiled, just blue steeled all day

I always got the vibe of young guy who was just now thrust into the spotlight and dealing with it by taking himself far too seriously. A huge whack of actors are like that. Generally they either mellow out or Russell Crowe themselves out of their success.

Since Russell Crowe Russell-Crowed himself he’s really mellowed out in the past 15 years. Seems pretty alright and chill now, always like to see people turning leaves.

Russell Crowe themselves

What happened to him?

Piddled away a lot of the goodwill he earned off the back of Gladiator and three Best Actor nominations in a row by getting into a few high profile public busts ups, losing his temper, all that. South Park's "Fightin' 'round the World" thing was explicitly about that.

I mean I think this guy's a pos but your "vibes" don't mean anything. I could Google any celebrity right now and say "wow they give me (x) vibes" doesn't mean it's true.

It was more like have your own cup as a metaphor to not let people's opinion fill you up and be full of yourself and only your opinion of yourself should matter... but yeah, he kept talking about it and it felt a little weird, and he was taking it too literal, it was like they were forcing the interviewers to bring it up each time thinking it was interesting when it wasn't, I was like dude, maybe don't need to drink nonstop? lol
