For youngsters out there who don't know yet, this man's loyalty to his wife is legendary. He was and still is a very handsome man. He had been a successful TV actor back then (the male lead on the Remington Steel series) when he was first offered to play James Bond. He rejected the offer to accompany his wife (Cassandra Harris, a former Bond girl) who had to do chemotherapy. The nurses said that Pierce never left his wife's room unless to go to the bathroom. Unfortunately, Cassandra lost the battle with cancer. Pierce mourned his deceased wife for so long, until his stepchildren urged him to date again. They even set several blind dates for him. When he finally married again, everybody was happy. His second wife, Keely Shaye Smith, was a journalist and an activist. There was a period when Keely was overweight and people were bashing her, saying that she was not worthy of him, or that he was stupid for not looking for a prettier/thinner woman. Pierce defended his wife fiercely, and stayed loyal throughout the ordeal. I couldn't imagine any other actors who would do the same if they were put in the same situation.

don't doubt the devotion to his wife, but I heard Pierce say in an interview the reason he first had to decline the role of Bond was because he was still under contract with Remington Steele. That's why Timothy Dalton got the part.

Back in the 80's I worked as a union extra on Remington Steel and myself and 3 other extras were sitting on the grass in a park in between setups and Pierce walked over with a director's chair and sat with us! He was absolutely delightful and we were in awe of him. Genna Davis was the guest star but I didn't meet her. Imagine Pierce sitting with us extras! I will never forget it!

@jayneneewing2369 Жыл бұрын

You are right, Talent do not mix with extras - at the bottom of the pecking order. (Um, I was an extra once on a show I hated, “Charlies Angels”. My friend was an AD and begged me to show up because the union had run low on extras. I think I appeared for one second. But I made my friend happy.)

At the start of the pandemic, when the fate of the world was a little uncertain, Pierce Brosnan did a live KZfaq watchalong of GoldenEye from his home on Hawaii. This was a very thoughtful act, to set aside two hours to do a live commentary for everyone stuck at home during the early days of covid. Brosnan didn't have to do it, he didn't represent the studio or anyone else, he just wanted to find a way to keep us entertained while we were all locked inside. A very humble man. Thank you Mr. Brosnan. Yes, you can still watch the WatchAlong on KZfaq.

And yes, there was his magical mustache on display but not the crazed look, which was, I expect, a marketing tool/ affectation. He was a very clever business man who knew exacty what he was doing. An unforgettable moment for me. Thanks to artist Guillermo for sparking my memory.

The young lady did a fantastic portrait of Brosnan. She really should get back into her art as she’s still got it. Reminds me of my daughter who can paint, sketch, play guitar, bass, piano, flute and the cello. And sing! Some ppl are just born with the gift, but it must be nurtured. Im proud of the job I did with her, and very proud of my little girl(woman). And Brosnan, he was always handsome. I tend to think of him in Mrs. Doubtfire the most, when he choked on a shrimp. 🤣. RIP Robin Williams. ❤️

Dang, Pierce is still sexy as ever. I am 66 & remember being gobsmacked by him in Remington Steele & his Bond was equally delicious. And Mama Mia was so good. Personally, I liked the psychedelic painting. Just saying. The first guy did a great 'walk thru.' of his painting. It's a fun segment. No way could I participate & if be paralyzed in horror to show off the mess that would result. They all did pretty dang great, considering & they were so easy with their work. Congrats all. BTW Pierce's Wife, Keely is beautiful. Pierce married well. 2x. Jimmy is a truly funny man. I'm always surprised at his clever ad libs, usually you kinda know what the host is going to say. His writing team is phenomenal.
