Defamer
Stories like the one that you are about to read are the reason we REALLY missed watching The Golden Globes this year. While we weren't at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza for last night's DGA Awards, one of our loose-lipped Defamer informants just sent us the following tip regarding an incident involving an the one of Hollywood's most unpredictable actresses, Sean Young. Yes, the same Sean Young who once appeared on The Joan Rivers Show decked out in full Catwoman gear in hopes of landing the role that would go to Michelle Pfieffer. Anyway, after taking time to hurl insults towards both Marion Cotillard and Julian Schnabel (the former en français, no less!), the scourge of James Woods' life was (allegedly) booted from the premises by a security cop. Our tipster's highly amusing recollection of the incident follows after the jump.
as a faithful reader of your blog, I just wanted to tell you about the AWESOME drama at the DGA Awards Saturday night at the Century City Hotel. Things were pretty calm for the dinner, but once the award portion of the evening began, has-been actress Sean Young started to get rowdy. She started talking loudly through out the show...at times screaming in French at the stage when that French actress from La Vie en Rose [Ed. Note - That'd be Marion Cotillard] took the stage..at other times breaking into song. She yelled at a video clip of George Clooney from Michael Clayton and then would start nuzzling the neck of her date (who seemed oblivious) but it was when Julian Schnabel took the stage toward the end of the evening that she really went kook...yelling at him to "get on with it" and to "move it on" (The DGA Awards are unique, they let all of the film nominees say something about their films and thank their crews before naming the winner at the end of the night). Julian yelled back at her to "Have another drink, Honey" and started to leave the stage before the crowd yelled at him to stay. He continued to talk and Sean stood up and mad a big production of putting on her white fur coat, walking around in a circle and then taking her seat again. Finally a security guard came over and grabbed her arm and yanked her through the tables to the side door and tossed her out. Still can't figure out who her date was (he looked like a lawyer type..an ohhhh he's going to get it at work come Monday).
Oh yes, there's other thing that we just remembered that gives this tale even a bit more creedence. Sean Young told Entertainment Weekly back in September about her unsuccessful attempts to crash Vanity Fair's annual Oscar party back in 2006. We find that to be very Interesting Spice.
UPDATE: Looks like Var's Kris Tapley may have been the first one to break this story. Check out his recap, posted earlier this afternoon at 12:02pm.

And naturally this is the one show they don't televise. How long before she gets a reality show?
There's a thought! She and Sharon Stone can be roommates in Schnabel's big pink condo building.
Schnabel's an asshole, but kudos to him. If Woods had just said something like that to her in the first place he'd never have had those problems.
That's what I find hilarious, that Emperor Julian actually had someone -anyone!- treat him like anything less than the Art God He Knows He Is. He seems to have constructed a universe centered on his absolute godlike authority, at least in the insular royal court of the NYC art world. So it's quite refreshing to have batty wild card Sean Young flinging sassy stank talk. I'm praying for video of this incident.
That said, i actually do admire Schnabel a great deal for his immense creativity, and I've only heard good things about the film.
Her best work was Stripes. Good god she was awful in Ace Ventura.
What is the Century City Hotel? Never heard of it.
Dammit! I blame it all on the "The Boost." She was never the same after that. (Her only crime was loving Jimmy too much!)
Her best work was Blade Runner. Her [i]only[/i] work was Blade Runner, as far as I'm concerned. I like to pretend that after Blade Runner, she was 'retired' and replaced by a Crazy-Bitch-Bot.
Vaguely related: watching E's coverage of the red carpet for the SAG awards-I think there was a Longoria/Piven smackdown caught on camera. For those recording at home- fast-forward to the Ryan Gosling and sib interview. In the big screen shot, Eva Longoria seems to be calling Jeremy Piven an asshole. Great tv, way better than the awktarded interviews.
She thought she was at the Golden Globes. And who exactly wears white fur coats anymore, other than polar bears and rap stars?
@Bogart Shwadchuck: She was good in Fatal Instinct, but I don't think she knew it was a comedy.

@raincoaster: "Fatal Instinct" was a comedy? I joke, of course - saw it late night on TV couple of years back and quite enjoyed it. She was good in it, though. Armand does good straight-face - he needed it in Judge Dredd (which I'm sure was a comedy.)
On a terribly shallow note, I'm guessing sex with Sean Young is pretty wild. There's good odds on waking up with a nail-file in your back and something pidgin-Elvish written on the mirror in red lipstick, but still - wild sex, eh?
I don't mind these crazy Norma Desmond's one bit. They make life more entertaining for us. And sites like these profitable.
Replicants get all crazy when they're liquored up.
Her best work was playing psycho-bitch Twinkle in my favorite rom com ever: Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me. It's set in a trailer park and the soundtrack is littered with the Pixies and Violent Femmes.

Who could forget the tour de force Baby? Sean really made that animatronic dinosaur come alive!
@Sweet Panda Love: "By comparison", you mean.
@redmanlaw: LULZ. At least she wasn't going on about baby spiders eating their mama....
@Sweet Panda Love: @Sleepyhead: Shit. I thought Sean was the animatronic one. The magic of movies is ruined yet again.
No SaAG live blogging? Ang almost lost her top!
@hack-a-rific: Fuck blogging. Any screengrabs?
If you're talking about Ang Lee then please disregard this question.
I'm not that high-tech, sorry! It was just really quick when she (Jolie, btw) first stepped onto the red carpet. She or Brad stepped on her dress and I gasped out loud b/c I thought I was about to be very embarassed for her. Maybe I was over-reacting, but it seemed close to me. And mind you, I'm still TEAM ANISTON.
Why is Jason Priestley at the Saggies? Oh, wait, that's Kevin Connolly.
@hack-a-rific: Your detailed description will get me through the night. And well done with the empathy, even though you're on the other team.
I find the fact that you gasped out loud very touching and absolutely hilarious.
@viruswithshoes: well, don't give me too much credit with the empathy. I did let out a fit of evil giggles after all was said and done...
@viruswithshoes: I read that as 'pidgin-Elvis.' Thank you for the unintentional gift of imagining Sean Young having sex in an Elvis costume and yelling in a Jamaican accent.
Sean has a history of ....er...problems..whereas Josh Brolin can have an operation to remove the 2x4 he has stuck up...er....there.
@swallowyourhalo: My pleasure! We should get together and exec-produce some wonderfully niche pornography.
@viruswithshoes: She could use the work lately.
Isn't Grey Gardens over in East Hampton empty?
I know Sean is Batshit crazy she has to be. Woods is such a dickhead that folks on his show about a fishy lawyer run screaming whenever he gets wound up which is most of the time.
How she ever fell for that ass I'll never know..she might as well have stalked an alien..really.
What did she yell at the clip of George Clooney?????
CatherineTrammell: I'm sure it's in development like...now.
But the real question is: Dr. Drew or Dr. Phil?
@Her Royal Empress Dr. Bufflekins III, Esq.: "Are you testing whether I'm a replicant or a lesbian, Mr. Clooney?"
She was a 'stalled clear' before it was cool.
Have you guys read that EW interview? It's way entertaining. She keeps saying "But the sin was not mine" and stuff like that.
Please let there be footage of this that ends up on YouTube.
@nick_r: I found two things extremely amusing - the idea that she would have been the Julia Roberts of the '90's, had Julia Roberts accidentally fallen down a mineshaft after 'Mystic Pizza' and the fact that she is allowed to rear a child, even if he is her own...
@hack-a-rific: I have heard rumors that before Ms. Jolie became a born-again virgin and learned to read you could pretty much get her naked by saying "Jon Voight's your dad?".
@LIttle Mintz Sunshine: So, are you saying that I maybe witnessed a fleeting glimpse of her (old) natural response to undress in front of photogs (before she remembered she was the New Ms. Jolie and kept her dress on)?
@gwendolyn: She might actually be right about the first one; this is, after all, a world in which Jessica Alba is a top earner.
I'm jealous of Sean Young getting overserved. Damn waiters cut our table off right before desert, just when I needed to drink the most. It was funny to see the scene play out from my table in Siberia (not too proud to admit it), see Schnabel get all huffy, and watch a white puffball stumble out.
Maybe that's why she has resorted to this (my new favorite show): [youtube.com]
The important thing is that Defamer do a follow up story with a list of who received voodoo dolls as retaliation for the ejection.
@LIttle Mintz Sunshine: Why would the mention of one's father make a person take their clothes off?
Then again, why would said person make out with her brother?
@ManPurse: "It's my father!" (slap) "It's my brother!" (slap).
God, that joke never grows old...
Thank you, Robert Towne.
You can always count on Sean Young to bring the crazy.
more more more!!!! this is the best thing i have read in months.
It says Sean Young is 38.... that would have made her 11 years old when Blade runner came out. A child actress!
What did she yell at Cotillard? "Edith Piaf was a genius and you made her look like an orangutan"? Schnabel needs major, major pisstaking and she's the one to do it. Speaking of The Boost, when I was at a press conference for True Believer, and Woods was plugging his upcoming film, claiming "The Boost will win every Oscar they can give." That failed to happen, and perhaps that explains some of the stress on that Woods/Young relationship, I'm guessing.
And on the next season of Celebrity Rehab...Sean Young.
