Funeral Crasher

Why couldn’t I stop myself from chuckling while reading this 1.29 N.Y. Post story (by Jamie Schram and Dan Mangan) about some douchebag who scammed and hoodwinked several people (including Tom Cruise) by pretending to be Kim Ledger, the grief-struck father of Heath Ledger? Using the cloak of tragedy to exploit people’s emotions (and to attempt to scam free death-swag) is beyond foul, and yet a good con man will never let a thing like decency stand in the way. It’s so outrageous it’s almost a movie — The Wake Crasher.

  1. How much of a douche must Tom Cruise be not to recognize such a blatantly incompetent attempt at an Australian accent (TMZ has the call this imposter made to Fox)?
    Christ, he was married to an Australian for 10 years!
    The guy is obviously a New Yorker pretending to be Australian and coming off more like he’s from Liverpool.
