Russell to Pay Big for Telephone Tantrum
It will be a long time before Russell Crowe throws another telephone in someone's face. The hot-headed actor, who launched a phone at a hotel employee when an international call to his wife wouldn't go through, will reportedly pony up $10.8 million to his victim. If he reaches a settlement with Hestor Estrada, the charges against him -- assault and weapon possession charges, which carry a sentence of up to seven years in prison -- will likely be dropped. Let's hope he can still afford his therapy sessions after the big payout.
