BILLY ZANE IS LOOKING PROFESSORIAL THESE DAYS

IMG_0285zane

Billy Zane, who played the wealthy snobbish fiancé in Titanic, actually isn’t snobbish at all. We don’t know about the wealth. But he’s a nice friendly guy and he had an exhibit of his photography at the party-friendly Leica Gallery in West Hollywood. He’s been shooting behind the scenes candids on his various movie sets and several were from Morocco, where he filmed the miniseries Cleopatra. He should have provided a paragraph explaining each photo because it would have been fun to know what was happening. But Billy was descriptive and talkative – he was dressed like a professor in a newsboy cap and tweed jacket. He’s about to start filming a new ABC miniseries, Guilt. (Obviously we asked the wrong person in the gallery to take our blurry photo above.)

THIS GUY STARRED IN ONE OF THE BIGGEST MOVIES EVER

Can you guess who this grey bearded gentleman is? No, it’s not Rob Reiner! It’s actually Titanic star Billy Zane. He played the wealthy and pretentious tuxedo-clad aristocrat who was set to marry Rose before she met Jack. It’s been 18 years since Titanic was released and Billy is 48 now and his beard gives him considerable gravitas. It also makes him unrecognizable, so he probably won’t be pestered by Titanic fans any more.

BILLY ZANE’S LITTLE GIRL AND HER FIRST EASTER

Titanic villainBilly Zane, 46, turned up at The Grove on Easter Sunday looking like a million bucks in a tan suit and fedora. He brought his equally well dressed little girl Eva, 1, and pointed out the Easter Bunny. Eva’s mother is Croatian model Jasmina Hdagha, with whom Billy has been living for over a year.

BILLY ZANE TAKES HIS SWEET TIME AND THE HECK WITH THE REST OF YOU

Our friend Nelson Aspen had an encounter with Billy Zane that was simple yet revealing. We are all familiar with those celebrities who vent their wrath on the paparazzi by giving them the middle finger. Hence their moment of vulgarity lives forever in living color. Anyway, Nelson was stopped at a red light on La Brea and all pedestrians had crossed and the light had changed to green for the cars. That’s when when Billy stepped into the crosswalk against the light. He didn’t scurry, in fact he sauntered, and when a car beeped to rush him along, Mr Zane sneered at the driver and flipped him the bird and walked even slower. Is it a sense of entitlement or just bad manners?
