Nobody can read Kevin Spacey

Kevin Spacey. The Giant. I met Kevin Spacey this morning to talk about “House of Cards” and all I could think of was his bracelet. I got obsessed with it. It was blue, rubber gum and it said “Be strong” (in neon yellow). He shook his hand up and down, he usually talks with big gestures like politicians do, and I saw there was a date on the other side of the bracelet, which I could not read, as Kevin sat too close to me to spy on the bracelet. I just wondered, why does Kevin Spacey, this hardcore actor, man full of self-confidence, this perfect guy for a daring aftershave advertisement, need to remind himself to be strong? Kevin’s suit did not fit to the blue bracelet, so I had to stare at the bracelet. Sorry, but I think he did it on purpose. The night before, during Emmy night, he wore an American flag upside down. People complained on Twitter that he is an “ass” as America made him famous and he didn’t show enough respect. I was wondering what was next. Then I saw Kevin Spacey’s socks. Light stripes, good taste, the kind of socks that “Karlsson on the roof” wore, an Astrid Lindgren character, a boy that could fly and ate too many meat balls. Kevin Spacey is a witchdoctor. There will be always details about him, that drive you crazy.
