No Love Match for Russell Crowe at Wimbledon

Gladiator star Russell Crowe, as famous for his temper as his acting, was finally put in his place at Wimbledon.

The star was unhappy with the seating he was given during the men’s final of the tennis grand slam.

Crowe – who was once charged for hurling a telephone at a hotel clerk in New York – wanted to change seats at Sunday’s match between Andy Roddick and Roger Federer.

The Australian superstar pointed where he wanted to watch the final because he was not happy with the seating arrangements allocated to him.

But, a Royal Navy security guard would have none of Crowe’s pleas and told him to get back to his original seat during what turned into an epic five-set match between Federer and Roddick.

Although the Oscar winner tried to argue his case, Crowe eventually conceded defeat and returned to his original seat.

Crowe later appeared to be calm as he was spotted sitting behind movie director Woody Allen.

Other celebrities watching the tennis action included Kate Winslet and former Wimbledon champion Pete Sampras.
